“Mr. Dane released the body earlier today, and she was transferred directly to the burial site,” Mason informed them as he led them straight to Chloe’s resting place.

“What about Lucas’ body?” Ethan asked.

“Well, we will leave it to them to decide. No one has come to claim his body. I guess he doesn't have any family left.” Mason shrugged, but beneath his tone was a mocking tone.

However, to Ethan, it wasn't really a funny matter. Having no family to perform burial rites was quite sad, and to him who had no real family left, he wondered what would happen if he ever died.

But then, Ethan knew he wasn't going to die anytime soon either. After all, he knew he was far from achieving what the System wanted him to do.

They reached the burial site, and a woman was already standing there. Two police officers were behind her, and since she was dressed in prison clothes, they knew who she was already.

“Mom?” Aria called out, her eyes watering slightly. Her fingers tightened around Ethan’s

  • Soon-to-be Fiance

    Ethan sat in his car, tapping on his thighs as Erin’s words rang again and again in his ears. He realized Genie had planned this so well and if everything went well for her, it would be the best wedding present.“Can you really trust what she says?” Mason glanced at his boss with doubts in his eyes.“Do you think she would agree to kill you? Is she capable?”Ethan let out a light chuckle, “Do you think someone who chooses to betray me wouldn’t kill me? She harbors so much resentment toward me and even after this crisis passes, I don’t think I should keep her alive.”“So, are you going to kill her?” Mason’s fingers tightened around the wheel.“Of course not…” Ethan chuckled. “I can’t stain my hands with her filthy blood. We will have someone else do it…”He curled into a sly smile, as he clicked his fingers, “All we have to do now is to begin the plan…”As soon as they got back to the hotel, they staged a murder scene. Fake blood pooled on the floor, and Ethan lay within with a fake kn

  • 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
