2024-06-23 03:17:39Ethan’s eyes opened up slowly and he could feel his heart thumping in his chest. Was he scared or not, he wasn't sure about that because he started to wonder whether he was in the bad part of the afterlife or not?
His eyes were a bit dizzy at first but then they slowly made out where he was. And then his heart skipped a beat seeing that he was at the hospital with other patients in his ward. “I'm not dead!” He wasn't sure whether to be happy about that because he could feel pain shooting through his body and he was practically wrapped in bandages. The pain was getting too much and he could feel his body almost convulsing. The machines connected to his body started to blare loudly and he opened his mouth to call for a nurse but there was none around. “Any…anyone there?” he struggled to say and his breath caught in his throat while he held onto the bedside tightly, to fight the pain. But suddenly everything stopped, his body went still and it was as if the whole world went silent. He couldn't hear the blaring sounds anymore and there was a loud silence in his head. And then suddenly, a robotic voice echoed in his head spreading to his ears, almost deafening them. [1…2…3… Ethan Blackwood, you have acquired the Rich Harem System] “What's going on?” He asked in his head and he wanted to speak out but it was as if his mouth was blocked and he could say nothing. [Next up, installing System 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Installed! Congratulations on your new System, Ethan. You can go ahead to perform your tasks!] As those words resounded in his head, he felt a gripping feeling and his body went limp and calm. It was like he regained control of his body again and he looked around to see if anyone had noticed but the patients present all looked at him, panicked for his health. “Are you okay?” One of the patients asked and he nodded slowly. Surprisingly, he felt no pain and the machines had stopped blaring. “Stay calm, the doctor is coming soon.” Another patient said and all he could do was nod. They probably didn't notice what just happened to me. It was surreal but was also familiar. Suddenly, a screen appeared before his eyes and he gasped in surprise mixed with shock. It was a bit translucent and he looked around to see if anyone had noticed but no one did. On the screen were a few things to take note of and he frowned lightly wondering what all these meant. “What are all these?” he asked and he got the answer right away as that voice from earlier resonated in his head again and words were displayed on the screen. [Women picking skills: 0] [Charm: 0] [Looks: 2] [Fighting skills: Level 1] [Account balance: $10] [You are advised to perform tasks to boost your skills, how can you own a harem without even having money?] “What the fuck is this?” He screamed in his head at the savage words he just heard. Everything before him was making him question his worth as a man. He could strangle anyone who dared to insult him this way but then it was just a robotic voice. He took a deep breath, trying not to question himself if he was going crazy or not but then something clicked in his head. “My Rich Squandering System…” he muttered and it was the name of an online novel he read some time ago. It was about a system and what just happened to him was the same as what happened in the book. “Am I dreaming? Or am I in another world?” he asked and he involuntarily started to fantasize about spending lavishly like Robin in the novel. But then he wondered what was so special about him, for this to happen to him. “Doctor, you are here.” he heard one of the patients say as the door opened up. A female doctor came walking in with a stressed look on her face but that did not diminish her beauty in the slightest way. But while he admired her beauty as she walked toward him, that robotic voice resounded in his head again. [New Mission unlocked! Flirt with the doctor and the reward will be based on your performance.] That was an instruction and he was compelled to do it. But how could he? He didn't even know what to do. “Hello, Mr. Ethan. I'm here for you.” She said and his whole world was blown away.

Price For Pain
Erin’s attack was fast and swift, with the tremors from the sharp blade resonating through the air. However, Ethan was faster.Swish!He jabbed against her chest, almost shattering her core while he slammed his palm against her throat.Immediately, she convulsed, almost as if everything in her was about to rise up her throat.The pocket knife fell to the floor, as she staggered backward. Her hands moved to her neck and chest, clutching them and trying to relieve the sharp throbbing pain in her body.“You…” She let out a strained sound but it sent even more jolts of pain down her body. Her eyes blurred with tears and the next second, she fell to the floor with all her strength leaving her.All that moment, Ethan waved his hands at Mason, “Restrain her...”“Sure!”Mason quickly tied her hands behind her while he dragged her across the room, to the couch. Her legs were tied up too, and though she tried to fight him, her current strength was no match for Mason’s.A few minutes later, when
Death Threat
The night had been intense, as Ethan never left the bed as Jenna clung to him like vines. And as he walked out of the shower, with a flimsy towel around his body while the sky turned bright, she smiled.There was a flash of pride, possession, and desire in her eyes. Ethan knew that look all too well, knowing she would want to have him to herself.“After the wedding, Jenna, when everything is done. I would like to tell you something important.”“What’s that?” She perked up immediately, eyes twinkling like a girl utterly in love. He realized the sooner he told her she couldn’t have him to herself, the better. But then, he decided to test the waters a bit, “You have to wait until I am done with everything. Also, you can bring your friends along for a party.”“Ohh…” She raised a brow. “What kind of party? Do they need to be there?”She was opposing, as her brows creased with obvious dislike toward his words. “Yes, it’s a small party, just to let us unwind. Moreover, you agreed to have
Number One Woman
“How are you going to do that?” Jenna’s brows creased. “Will you do anything I ask, Jenna?” Ethan asked, as he clutched her shoulders.“Yes, I will.” She nodded with a determined gaze. “Anything at all.”He grabbed the card again and waved it lightly, “Can you get another one for me? I need to meet your uncle.”“But…” Her eyes dimmed, with uncertainty in them. “Don’t you think it will be too risky? You could meet him in any other place, with a lot of security around.”“You won’t be duly secured if you meet him during the wedding.”However, Ethan assured her with his calm gaze, “You don’t need to worry about anything. I will be fine…”“Are you sure?” Her tone went a notch lower, riddled with worry. She knew she would go crazy, if anything happened to Ethan. She would blame herself to death because she told him the truth about her origin.“You don’t have to worry...” He patted her shoulders. After everything was done with Genie, that would be his final blow toward her. Appearing at he
Giving Ethan Everything
Mason quickly ushered Chairman Davins into the car while he stood guard outside. He had no trust in the old man, and he knew his presence could either put Ethan at a risk or there was something fishy cooking. And back in the car, Ethan’s face was cold as ice while he stared out of the window.“You have five minutes.”“Thank you…” Chairman Davins nodded, while clutching the hem of his clothes. His lips quivered, with his eyes darting around and looking beyond the open parking lot.Ethan noticed every single thing. His movements, his quivering lips, and how he had changed in just a few days. He didn't look like the dignified man he used to be.However, he didn't care as he spoke up, “Three minutes left, old man.”Chairman Davins immediately perked up, knowing this was his only chance at saving.“Save my daughter, please.” He pleaded as his eyes blurred with hot tears. “Aria is in danger.”“What do you mean?”“I will tell you everything…” He whispered. “Everything I did to you, rejectin
Let Him Stay
“Mason? Are you there? Fucking say something!”Erin kept banging on the door while she pulled on the doorknob. The force in her grip ripped it out of the door and it bounced on the floor, however, the door still didn't open.She stood there, breathing heavily while her hands shook. There was no way Mason had locked her up, right?“It has to be a mistake…” She muttered to herself as she took off her bag and rummaged for her phone wanting to call Ethan.However, she could find it. “My phone...” Her brows creased, but then she continued to search. But the next minute, she hurled the contents out of the bag.Every single thing she had came off, but her phone.“What the fuck…” She sank to her knees as she ran through everything again and again. And it clicked in her mind. Her phone was gone. And it didn’t just disappear, Mason had taken it.She was sure she didn't leave it in the car and it didn’t fall off.Quickly, she rose to her feet, rummaging through the house, trying to find any pho
Three Days To Death
As soon as Erin ran out of the quiet estate, she hailed a cab, going straight to Sky Avenue where her family lived. All through the ride, she had tears in her eyes while cursing at Ethan.“It’s all your fault, you bastard!” She screamed, while slamming her fists on the headrest before her. She never cared if the cab driver was looking at her. All she could think of was how she was going to stab Ethan a hundred times over. However, she couldn’t bring herself to do it and that was why she ran out of Genie’s mansion, hoping she could escape.When she finally got back home, she rushed in, checking for her parents and her siblings, and the minute she realized they were fine, she slumped on the couch while breathing hard. “Are you okay, Erin?”Her mother’s worried voice reached her, and a lone tear streamed down her face. Though her family had the power to protect themselves, she knew they weren't as powerful as Genie.“I am fine...” She whispered. “Please, go back to sleep. I will stay
