CHAPTER HUNDRED AND EIGHTY “Even after a week, the media has refused to stop talking about this!” Ethan grunted, grabbing the remote to switch channels on the television. He almost broke the glass containing the liquor he had been drinking, his eyes flaming with rage. “Finally!” He sighed heavily, having switched to a better channel. He reclined to the couch and sighed heavily while he glued his eyes to the television, enjoying the afternoon show. A few seconds later, Michael descended the staircase, and as soon as he saw his son, he decided to join him. “May I?” He asked, pointing to the space beside Ethan.“Sure!” The young man nodded, and without delay, he adjusted so that his father could sit, holding carefully onto his glass of whiskey. “Do you care for this?” Ethan offered his father the glass of whiskey on the table, hoping to get a glass, but the middle-aged man rejected it, shaking his head slowly. “I quit, son. Since I got back from the hospital.” “Oh.” Ethan nodded

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-NINE Ethan sighed heavily as soon as he heard Eva’s voice.He had no idea of how he was supposed to dodge the intended blow as Jacob seemed to be very fast and didn’t look like he was going to be taking it easy on him. “What are you doing, Jacob? That’s my boss!” Eva’s voice resounded again, and then she began to cough, causing Jacob to run to her at once. “Are you okay, my dear? Do you need anything?!” He tried to touch her, but Eva pushed him away, turning to face Ethan who was still trying to get a grip on himself.She had taken off the oxygen mask, and that made her breathing raspy. “Are you alright, Mr. Ethan?” She asked, causing Jacob to grunt in annoyance while glaring at Ethan.“Why are you asking if he is alright, Eva?!” Jacob asked with a fiery tone, wishing he could continue the fight. “This fool right here is the reason why you almost lost your life! You should have let me teach him some lessons!” Eva gasped, turning to Jacob with a scowl.

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHT He was particularly concerned about Ethan’s appearance, turning to look at Eva with so much concern.“What did you do to her?!” He asked, rushing to Eva’s side. “I did nothing to her,” Ethan explained calmly, watching as the man carefully looked at Eva, touching her to be sure she was the same way he left her. He didn’t look at Ethan until he was satisfied, and then he turned to him, holding onto his intense glare.“Who are you?” The man asked, his tone laced with impatience and annoyance.He looked at Ethan from his hair to the sole of his shoes, and it was very clear that he had already judged him even without hearing him out. “You don’t know who I am?” Ethan asked with a low tone, looking the man in the eyes.That was the first time someone in and outside the City had ever seen him without recognizing him.“Am I supposed to know who you are?” The man asked, still impatient to know who Ethan was. “Are you going to tell me who you are or do I ha

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SEVEN “We are sorry, Mr. Ethan!” Irene pleaded again, but she had only succeeded in pissing Ethan off.“I don’t want to hear it!” He snapped at her, forcing her into silence. Irene didn’t dare to say even a single word again, looking him in the eyes while she struggled for breath. Ethan looked at the two ladies for a few seconds, and then he cleared his throat.“Eva will reach out to you in a few days. You had better show up or I will be coming for you.” He warned, his eyes sparking with rage. Almost at once, he walked away, leaving all three of them while Cain’s whimper and grunt continued to rise inside the room.Ivan was standing right next to the door, and as soon as he saw Ethan, he looked at him with wide eyes, finding it very hard to break his silence.“Did…” He stuttered, swallowing hard while he looked him in the eyes as though he was trying to find out the truth.Then he cleared his throat, attempting to get a grip on himself.“Did you?” He as

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX At that moment, Ethan couldn’t be more glad that he had suggested that they have a non-static password and code for the database in the server room. The password and code changed after every thirty minutes, making it almost impossible for anyone to hack into it.Even so, it was going to take a highly skilled tech-guru to be able to find his way around it. Ethan cleared his throat as soon as he returned his gaze to Cain, looking him in the eyes.“Let me see your hands, Cain.” He ordered with a low but imperative tone, and when Cain hesitated, he slammed the handle of the hammer on his head, causing him to fall to the ground. The two ladies shrieked, drifting backward as they looked at Cain, watching as he remained on the floor, panting and whimpering. Ethan grunted, showing signs that he was not done with Cain. “Don’t make me repeat myself, Cain.” He warned, and then he inched closer to him, taking out one of the guns.“Get up!” He commanded, point

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE “I…” Cain stuttered, seeming like his memory had been jammed. “I…” He tried To speak for the second time but that didn’t end well for him. This made him swallow hard, and before long, he was breathing heavily, looking at the hammer that Ethan had placed high enough for him to see. “He is no one, Sir!” He had to say the only thing that came to his mind, but as soon as he saw that Ethan had lifted the hammer to strike him, he gasped, covering his face with both hands. “His name is Joe! Joe is his name! Please!” He was panting, bending his face to the ground while he pushed his two hands upward, as though he was trying to catch the hammer before it could land on his face. “Please!” He pleaded again, his lips quivering while he continued fighting for breath. “Hmm.” Ethan took a deep breath which he let out slowly.“Joe?” He muttered, and Cain nodded frantically, uncovering his face slowly.“Yes, Sir! His name is Joe! We work together! I can take you
