Before Ethan could say a word, Emma stepped forward and extended his hand toward the Doctor, but he was too scared to shake hands with her, turning to Ethan as though he was trying to be sure of what to do in order not to offend him. Ethan looked away, turning to his wife. “Let’s go, babe.” He grabbed Emma’s wife and gently pulled her toward the hallway. “What was that all about, Ethan?” Emma asked, struggling to keep up with her husband’s pace. Ethan shook his head. “Nothing. They must think that I am someone else.”“That’s not true, Ethan!” Emma pulled away from his grip, her eyes firing an intense stare of annoyance at him.“The Doctor mentioned your name, Ethan! I have never heard anyone calling you sir in a very long time.” She continued to glare at him, waiting for an explanation. Ethan sighed. “Let’s go see Emma, Baby. I promise to tell you why everyone in this hospital kept acting like they are insane.” Emma strongly wanted to insist on getting the answers she wanted, bu

Olsen took a deep breath, holding onto his smile. “Why, my dear? Why are you behaving this way toward me?” He took two steps forward, but that made Maria wince backward.“Don’t come close to me!” She whimpered, her breath shaky and seeming like she was getting exhausted. Ethan turned to Olsen and glared at him. “You heard my sister! Leave this place!” He pointed, but Olsen insisted on walking up to them.“She is my girlfriend! I am meant to be here!” He insisted, taking another step.Ethan was forced to get up from the bed, walking up to Olsen with fire in his eyes. “You don’t want to know what I am capable of doing, Mister! Just leave before I do something very bad to you!” Olsen looked at Ethan with so much disdain in his eyes. “You are a nobody, Ethan. I know everything about you. You live with your wife’s family. You are a wretched fellow.” Ethan growled, but that didn’t stop Olsen from holding onto his sneer. “You are a Leech, Ethan. I know everything about you, especially t

Ethan scoffed. “There is nothing mysterious about what you have been told, Olsen. My sister’s medical bills have been paid, and I am sure you know that she wasn’t kept in this type of special ward for free. I suggest you leave at once.” Olsen grunted at him, and then he turned to Maria with a wry smile. “I see that your brother now thinks that he is a man. He must have gotten someone to help him with the medical bills.” He paused for a while, still staring at her with a wry smile. “I will find you, my love. Don’t think that you can be able to run from me. I own this city, and I will find you even if you attempt to leave.” Olsen chuckled coyly at Maria, and then he turned to Ethan. “Take care, debtor.” He taunted, and then he walked away stylishly. It had been a struggle for Ethan to suppress his anger, and as soon as Olsen was gone, he turned to Rick who looked away at once. “I don’t care if his father owns this hospital or if he is your major beneficiary. No information

Everyone turned to see who it was, and seeing the strange man clad in a navy suit, Ethan became very annoyed. “Tell that bloody fool that I will make him pay for what he has done!” He walked up to the strange middle-aged man, ready to smash his balled fists to his face. The man was forced to take two steps backward, staring with wide and innocent eyes. “What are you talking about?” He asked, seeming very ignorant. Ethan lowered his fist, staring into the man’s eyes. “Don’t you work for Olsen?” He asked, and the man shook his head. “I don’t think I know who that is.” He said, and Ethan took a deep breath.The ladies stood by the corner of the room staring at the stranger without saying a word. “Who are you then?” Ethan asked impatiently, eager to leave the hospital.The man took a deep breath. “My name is Caius Evan, Mr. Ethan. I am here to discuss business with you.” Emma gasped as soon as the middle-aged man mentioned his name. “You mean Caius Evans, the owner of Ever Tech?”

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE “What’s the problem, Eva?” Ethan asked calmly, but his voice was laced with so much tiredness. All he just wanted was to get home and have some rest, but it appeared that the new position he had just occupied was going to come with so many challenges, and not just the power and riches that came along with it. Eva had been silent for a very long time, but Ethan was gradually losing his patience. “Talk to me, Eva. What happened?” “Someone hacked into one of our systems and broke into our firewall. Some of the confidential data we have are about to be leaked, and we don’t know how to handle this. None of the programmers we have has been able to rectify the issue, they were only able to block the access, but that can only last for a while.”Ethan sighed, but that didn’t seem like the kind of reaction Eva had expected to get from him. “Are you there, Mr. Ethan?”“I am here, Eva.” Ethan nodded with a frown, and then he took a deep breath. “I am on my way.” Ethan e

“I am not sure if this is going to work.” Said one of the female programmers to her friend, but instead of getting a response, what she got from her friend was silence. The latter stared at her for a while, then she returned her gaze to the screen everyone was looking at, anticipation running through her mind and transferring to her face. “It worked! The virus is gone!” Someone said from the back, but he didn’t need to.Everyone could see it right before their eyes from the moment the systems were done booting.“This is magical!” Someone else commented, turning to Ethan with wide eyes.Their doubts had been cleared, and they were beginning to have more respect for the boss.Eva was pleased at that moment, and inching closer to Ethan, she bowed in front of him, a gracious smile plastered all over her face.“Well done, Sir Ethan!” Her words resonated high enough to draw the attention of some of the young programmers who were still trying to figure out how Ethan had been able to resolv

Ethan scoffed, turning to look at the employees briefly.“You so much trust these people. I am sure you must have over-pampered them that they feel so comfortable working the way they love.”Eva said nothing, instead, she cleared her throat as the guilt that surged from Ethan’s remark crawled into her system.She knew that the boss was right, and she couldn’t even deny it.When she was able to turn to Ethan and look at him, she cleared her throat again. “Harry could have done this, Sir Ethan. I strongly believe that.”“But Harry is in jail,” Ethan said, lifting an eyebrow. “I know.” Eva nodded, a nervous look all over her face. “It is possible that he must have gotten someone to carry out that plan for him. He knows this place thoroughly, and he is the one person capable of pulling this type of stunt.”Ethan sighed, staring at Eva silently for a while.Then he took a deep breath, his eyes still fixed on her. “You sound very certain, and even if I strongly want to believe you, I sti

CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT “What is it, Sir Ethan?” Roy raised an eyebrow, attempting to stretch his neck to see what the boss was talking about. Ethan cleared his throat. “You don’t need to stress so much. I will show you.” He took a deep breath, turning the screen to Roy’s face.“I see here that you have another user hidden in this computer, Roy. How come you encrypted it?”Roy gasped, his eyes wide with surprise.It was impossible at that moment for him to get a grip on himself, his jaw dropped as though that was the way it had always been.“That user belongs to my Mother, Boss,” Roy said calmly, but his voice was almost inaudible, losing its grip.Ethan scoffed. “That’s very surprising, Roy. Because from what I am looking at, your mother died three years ago. You kept memories of her in your user.” Roy swallowed hard, his heart almost about to fly from his chest. “I…” He swallowed hard, unable to find his words. Ethan scoffed. “I am listening, Roy.” He looked him in the eyes, awai

CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE Seeing this, the guard standing next to Ethan dived to the ground, placing his hand below the computer before it could hit the ground. He wasn’t so fast enough. Parts of the laptop hit the hard floor, causing some major damage to it at once.Seeing this, Roy made a run to escape, but he had barely made it to the door when two guards double-crossed him, grabbed him, and pinned him to the ground. No matter how hard he tried to fight them, screaming, “Let me go!” They refused to free him, holding him down while he grunted and struggled futilely. Ethan’s fury rose as he looked down at the laptop.The guard picked it up and brought it to him.He fumed, turning to Roy who was still pinned to the ground, panting frantically. “This confirms what I said earlier,” Ethan said, turning to Eva who quickly looked away.He hoped that nothing had happened to the laptop, but he was very disappointed when he looked at the screen and found out that part of it had been blinded,

CHAPTER FORTY Julian couldn’t believe his eyes, staring with wide eyes as his secrets glared back at him.He had been completely rendered speechless by what he saw, unable to find his words. Eva pushed closer to him, fuming with clenched fists. “The boss asked you a question, Julian!” She fired, her eyes burning with fury.“Do you care to explain why you did everything you have done?!” She was running out of patience, anger and regret burning through her chest.Roy swallowed hard, turning to Roy who had already succumbed to his fate.“I didn’t ask him to do all of that, Miss Eva! He did them on his own! He said he needed them, and…!” He paused, taking a deep breath.He had been hooked, panting while he looked away from Roy who refused to stay silent.“This was all your fault, Julian!” Roy didn’t care that he was on the floor.The only thing that mattered to him at that moment was all he wanted to say. “I just wanted to make a few dollars, Julian! But you forced me to dig deeper! Yo
