“What’s going on?”Outside the hospital room, Ethan noticed Avery’s distraught look, raised an eyebrow, and asked softly.“Henry’s the Mitchell family butler. Been with us almost thirty years.”“When I was a kid, my parents were swamped with work—Henry practically raised me.”“But now Jaxon’s saying Henry... that he’s the one who...”Avery’s voice trailed off, her face a mess of confusion and conflict.On one side was the family business; on the other, someone she’d always considered family.Caught in the middle, she was stuck—no idea what to do next.“I get it.”Ethan let out a heavy sigh, stepped over, and rested a hand on her shoulder.“But I don’t think Jaxon’s lying.”“Chances are, Henry really is... behind all this.”Before he could finish, Avery’s eyes shot wide—like a lightbulb went off.“Wait! Grandpa!”Ethan tensed. “What’s wrong, Avery?”“Henry’s not just our butler—he’s the one taking care of Grandpa’s daily needs!”“If Jaxon’s right and Henry’s out to get us... then what
Chapter 21
Chapter 21Max’s expression turned dark and menacing.He said nothing, his gaze boring into Ethan like he was trying to drill into his very soul.But before he could make a move, Ethan struck like a bolt of lightning—fist clenched, power coiling in his arm with terrifying intensity.The air seemed to crackle; a crushing force surged toward Max, an onslaught with no escape.Max’s mind went blank. As Ethan’s attack closed in, a primal, unshakable fear shot through him.He panicked, throwing up an arm to block.But against Ethan’s tidal wave of force, no defense stood a chance.“Ah!!”A bloodcurdling scream tore from Max’s throat, his face twisting in agony as pain lanced through him.He trembled, lips quivering, staring at Ethan in disbelief.“Who… who the hell are you?”“How the hell do you have this kind of power?!”Max’s eyes bugged with shock, his whole body radiating dread.Where’d this guy even come from?He was so strong it made Max’s head spin—if he remembered right, no one in t

“Who’s there?”“You know what this place is? What the hell you here for? Get lost!!”Outside an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Clouddale.Ethan stared down three burly men, his gaze cold.The men—ripped with muscle, scowls etched into their faces—eyed Ethan warily. This factory was Tiger’s Den territory, and they were the gatekeepers.Ethan acted like he didn’t hear them. He didn’t even glance their way, just kept walking toward the factory.“Stop!!”The men’s expressions darkened. Who the hell was this guy? Daring to blow them off, strutting right in like they were invisible?The leader’s eyes narrowed. “Hey, kid! I said stop! You deaf or something?”He lunged, hand shooting out to grab Ethan. He was dead set on teaching this punk a lesson.Behind him, his two goons snickered. The guy looked like a stick—no way he could handle their boss. They leaned back, ready to watch the show.But their amusement didn’t last.A bloodcurdling scream—like a stuck pig—split the air.“AHHH!!”
Chapter 19
"Young Master!"At the same time, Dante and Blake quickly approached Ethan, their faces full of respect and solemnity."Mm."Ethan nodded, his expression calm as he looked at them, then said in a deep voice,"Dante, I need you to investigate someone.""You have my command, Young Master," Dante replied, his face serious."Avery's brother, Jaxon Mitchell. Find out where he is right now."Dante raised an eyebrow, looking at the Young Master with some doubt. He didn't understand why he was being asked to investigate someone, especially for no clear reason.However, being sharp, Dante didn't question further. He nodded immediately."Understood, Young Master. I'll handle it right away."With that, Dante left without hesitation.As Dante left, Blake seemed to think of something. He cautiously glanced at Ethan, then spoke in a lowered voice."By the way, Young Master, I saw a pair of phoenix rings in Serena's possession earlier. I thought... could they be the ones your mother left you?""If t
Chapter 18
After saying that, Blake didn’t say another word. He turned and walked away.At that moment, he still couldn’t be sure if the Phoenix Rings Serena held were the same ones the Young Master had been looking for.After a moment of thought, he decided to consult with the Young Master to confirm.Watching Blake leave, Serena’s expression darkened, and she sneered to herself.“Hmph! Avery, don’t think that securing the Black Gold Consortium deal means you’re on top now! Let me tell you, as long as I’m here, there’s no way the Mitchell family will rise in Clouddale!”Her face grew even colder as the bitterness filled her thoughts.Why did Avery, with her failing company, get to secure a deal with the Black Gold Consortium, while she couldn’t?Serena was angry—deeply angry.Avery, you wait. Even if you’ve managed to get the contract, so what?One day, I’ll make sure you choke on it!Serena repeated the words in her mind, silently cursing her rival.At that moment, Victor hurried over with a s
Chapter 17
Serena’s face was dark and cold as she watched Ethan and Avery together. For some reason, a surge of anger rose up in her chest.She couldn’t stand the thought of Ethan living a better life after leaving her.In her mind, Ethan was nothing more than a “loser” who couldn’t survive without her.She knew full well that Ethan was only pretending to keep it together. She had his mother’s Phoenix Rings, and based on his reaction earlier, she was sure those rings held deep, sentimental value for him.Serena was confident that one day, Ethan would be on his knees begging her.When that time came, she would make sure he paid the price.At that moment, a sudden rush of footsteps echoed around them, accompanied by the sound of people whispering excitedly.“Quick! Look! It’s Dante, and the president of the Clouddale Black Dragon Guild, Mr. Blake!”“Hiss! It really is them! Why are they here?”“Maybe it’s because of the Mitchell family selling those illegal drugs?”“I heard the Black Gold Consorti
