VERY DANGEROUS EXPRESSION
"They're worse." Scarlett rolled her eyes immediately. "At least those terrorists need weapons, but these people don't need any of those, just their tongues are enough to drag anyone." The security guard nodded seriously."I agree, ma'am."Ethan stared at both of them, neither looked like they were joking.For several seconds, he genuinely couldn't tell whether they were serious or not, but he just stayed quiet since their expressions have a different story that's indirectly asking him not to get involved.Then Scarlett adjusted her coat before speaking calmly. "We will leave through the front entrance."The security guard blinked."Ma'am?"Scarlett's expression remained cold."If they want pictures, they'll get pictures." A brief pause followed. "But nobody gets close enough to touch him... If they dare to, just get rid of them, because I don't like when someone touches my husband!" The guard immediately nodded."Understood mam, leave it to me, the moment they dare to touch Mr. Eth
ARE YOU PLAYING WITH ME?
"Mr. Ethan, the doctors have completed the final examination and you're officially cleared for discharge."The nurse's gentle voice broke the quiet atmosphere inside the hospital room that afternoon.Sunlight streamed through the large windows while the city skyline stretched endlessly beyond the glass.For several seconds, nobody spoke.The nurse calmly looked at the clipboard in her hand and said, "the prescribed medication should be taken in time, and your body needs more rest for the property recovery." Ethan nodded quietly, and the nurse offered him a gentle smile before turning toward Scarlett."The doctor has also recommended that Mr. Ethan attend a few sessions with a psychiatrist," she explained carefully. "Considering everything he has gone through recently, it would be beneficial in helping him process any lingering trauma and prevent long-term psychological effects."Scarlett glanced toward Ethan briefly before looking back at the nurse."Of course," she replied with a sm
I DON'T KNOW
"I'm not sure," Ethan sighed heavily while staring at the letter. "I don't even understand what exactly Grandfather was trying to tell me with this."Scarlett remained silent for a moment before finally asking the question that had been lingering in her mind."Do you trust your grandfather?"Her quiet voice broke the heavy silence hanging inside the hospital room.Morning sunlight was still passing through the large windows, but neither Ethan nor Scarlett paid any attention to it anymore.The letter remained spread open between them, more specifically, the final page.The page containing only a single name, nothing else, there's no explanation or clue, not even evidence to prove the claim of Ethan's grandfather.Just one name, as if it decides everything.Ethan stared at it silently for a long time, his expression remained unreadable, yet something inside his eyes had changed, because out of everything his grandfather could have left behind... He left this.Scarlett continued watching
THE REAL TARGET WAS YOU
"Did you even look at yourself?" Scarlett scolded while folding her arms across her chest. "You look paler than a ghost, and your body is weaker than a child's right now. The only things you're supposed to do are eat properly, rest, and focus on recovering."Her voice broke the peaceful silence inside the private hospital room the following morning.Golden sunlight filtered softly through the windows while the city slowly returned to life outside.For the first time in a long time, the atmosphere felt calm.No police sirens.... No reporters.... No family drama.Only Ethan and Scarlett inside the room.Ethan sat against the hospital bed while finishing breakfast reluctantly under Scarlett's supervision.Across from them stood one of Scarlett's trusted security personnel.The man held a sealed envelope carefully in his hands."We found this among the belongings recovered from your grandfather's private study in old Carvendish Mansion, Mr. Ethan," he explained respectfully.Ethan immedia
YOU'RE THE PATIENT
"How much more can one person endure before he finally breaks?"The senior doctor's quiet voice carried through the hospital room while Scarlett stood silently beside Ethan's bed.Outside, the chaos surrounding the Carvendish family's arrest continued dominating every news channel.Inside the room, however, the atmosphere felt completely different, quiet, heavy…. Painfully quiet.Ethan remained unconscious beneath the white hospital blankets.Several bruises were visible along his arms and shoulders from the struggle earlier.The Dragon Ring rested quietly against his finger once again as if nothing unusual had happened.Scarlett stood near the bed while the doctors continued reviewing Ethan's latest examination results.The more they looked, the darker their expressions became.Finally, one of the senior doctors removed his glasses, his face looked troubled."Mrs. Scarlett..."Scarlett immediately looked toward him."Tell me."The doctor hesitated briefly, then quietly answered. "Mr.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT
“Ethan is my son, and I have every right to decide what happens to him,” Jerome said coldly.Hailey immediately nodded in agreement.“That's right,” she added emotionally. “We are his parents. You have no right to question us. Ethan is our son, and he is obligated to obey us.”Several officers exchanged glances before one of them stepped forward.“No,” the officer replied firmly. “That argument might have worked years ago, but not anymore. From what we've gathered, your family severed ties with Mr. Ethan long ago. According to multiple statements and records, you repeatedly denied any responsibility toward him. You don't get to disown someone when it's convenient and then claim ownership over them when you need something…. Even if he is your son, still you've no right to put his life in danger, Mrs. Carvendish…. Ms. Scarlett clearly asked us not to spare anyone who touched her husband.” Jerome's expression instantly darkened.Sally immediately lost her temper and shouted angrily. “Wh
