Ethan watched the young waitress and almost chuckled. She was so cute trying to help him out, only to find out that he didn't even want help. He was going to take this to the highest level it could get because these assholes had interrupted his peace, and until now he hadn't eaten because of them. “What did you just say?" Wendy is fuming in rage now. “I said, aren't you a fool acting like this in front of so many elite customers?" “How dare you?!" She barked. The old man couldn't take it anymore. He said over the phone, “Come inside. There is a hooligan I want you to deal with for me." He angrily put the phone down and pointed at Ethan, “Just you watch. When I am done with you, you will be licking the soil of the ground." “I have—-" The two glass door was pushed open and so many hefty and huge men on black suit rushed into the restaurant. The customers gasped. When the young waitress saw this, she snuck away to make a call to the manager. This was getting out of hand, and even

Now he understands. He understands where the waitress had the guts to speak to him in such a manner. He didn't need Wendy or anyone to explain the situation. The moment he had set foot in here, someone had been completely restless. “After what happened at the office, you haven't let go of your shamelessness.” Ethan smirked. " What shamelessness are you speaking about, Miss Wendy?” Ethan asked. " The last time I remembered, you were the shameless one.” Wendy's face turned red. Wendy didn't want to speak about the shameless part anymore so Ethan doesn't bring back what happened at the office, so she said, " How despicable. You really ask a poor waitress who is struggling to make ends meet to kowtow to you, penniless fowl?” Ethan would have cowered back then, but now, he could only see Wendy as a joke. Thinking about it now, he realized how much nonsense he had to swallow at the hands of this woman. Whenever Wendy made a mistake back then, she would push the blame on him, and he w

Ethan's eyes narrowed. He stared at the waitress in front of him and wondered who gave her the audacity to speak to him this way. He had been to this restaurant before, and he had seen how professional the employees were. Even when he couldn't afford much back then, they never belittled him. Back then, even if he had eight bucks to buy a bottle of water, he would rather save it up for something else and buy a bottle from a regular shop that wouldn't even cost up to two bucks. He saved up every penny for Jenna's treatment and would walk to and fro work. Back then, he did not dare take himself out on a treat. The only person he spent on aside from Jenna's medication was Lucy. But that wasn't the case any longer. “I asked you a question: can you afford to buy the bottle of water?" Ethan lifted his head as he leaned on the chair rest, "What if I can?” The waitress snorted, “A nobody like you? Unbelievable.” This waitress called Mary was so sure that Ethan couldn't afford even a bo

After a while, Ethan checked his brown leather wristwatch on his wrist. It was already 2 p.m. He looked down at Jenna, who was still unconscious, and whispered, “I'll go get us a bigger apartment. You'll have a big room, and you can design it any way you see fit." He dropped his head and planted a kiss on her forehead. Ethan straightened up again before turning to walk out. As he walked through the corridor, his eyes scanned the hospital that had duped him again and again. On the surface, no one would suspect that St Heaven could be so corrupt as to drain the life out of the poor masses. Now that he knew, he was going to get to the bottom of it. Ethan stepped out of the hospital and flagged a cab. Before he could tell the cab driver where he was heading, his stomach grumbled. " Any good restaurant,” he said instead. The driver glanced at the rear-view mirror before giving a simple nod. In less than twelve minutes, Ethan found himself in front of Gracious Life Restaurant.He ha

[Ding!]Mission UpdatedRestore Delta Logistics to profitability.Progress: 8%Reward: 500,000Ethan woke up with the sound of the system. He had fallen asleep beside Jenna's bed. He sat upright and cracked his neck. It had been a long day for him. And Jenna. He watched her pale face and removed the strand of hair from her face. She had been sickly since childhood, and it got worse after the death of their parents. She was diagnosed with congenital heart disease. He had taken up several jobs just to pay for her surgery. And the more he sent money, the more the hospital claimed it wasn't enough because her condition was way too serious.All he wanted was to see his Jenna happy and smiling again—free from pain. Only now did it dawn on him that the hospital had been playing with him all this time. They could have conducted the surgery long ago. But they manipulated everything.He wasn't done with them. In fact, this was just the beginning because he would make sure everyone who made h

Yes. The question was simple, but a chill ran through Jack's spine. Ethan was stern in his question. The authority with which Ethan spoke made him wonder where the man was from.“Never," Jack replied. For the first time in his life, he was glad he had never stolen from this company. “Do you swear you did not steal parts of my company's generators?" Jack went weak on his knees as he began to sweat profusely. He didn't know if any of his members had gone behind his back to steal, but they would never disobey him. “Boss, I would never lie to you." Jack fell to his knees, " If we steal, I would tell you. I have never instructed my people to steal from Delta Logistics. But I will ask them one after the other. I will get the truth out of them, and I will report back to you.” Ethan saw in Jack's eyes that he wasn't lying. But if it wasn't the thugs, then who? " I'll be waiting.” Jack nodded, stood on his feet, and rushed out of the compound. With the speed at which Jack ran, Ethan c
