Ethan slowly walked toward his father, William, making the man feel like his throat was about to smoke from swallowing so much saliva.

His whole body was still trembling like a sieve, and this time it wasn't from anger but from fear.

Ethan patted William on the shoulder and said, "Don't be scared."With that, before the other party could react…Bang!Ethan punched him in the face, sending his teeth and blood flying out, knocking him unconscious, and then he ordered Isabella."Lock them all up in the family's dungeon outside the city.""As you say, President Ethan.""No! Ethan, you can't do this. My sister won't leave you!" Lucas screamed hysterically.Bang! Bang!Two more bodies fell unconscious as Ethan took action and dusted off his hands, spe

    "If you don't want to end up like your son, shut up and stay away from me."Ethan withdrew his gaze from her. He turned his head to look in William's direction, and a bizarre smile appeared on his face."William, do you think what I said makes sense?""Crazy! Absolutely crazy!" William's face, flushed with rage, turned a dangerous shade of purple. "You are calling me by my name?! You rebellious son!”He felt blood rushing to his head as his blood pressure spiked to dangerous levels.Seeing this, Ethan shook his head slowly in disappointment."Why can't I call you by name? What have you done for me to call you father? As for this woman, she is no relative of mine. She is just a wild woman you brought home."William pointed a finger at Lucas on the floor. "Then what about Lucas? He is your brother! You severed Lucas's palm and broke his leg. What on earth are you trying to do?"Ethan glanced at them indifferently.Then, he pretended to ponder for a moment before once again shaking his h

    "President, did something happen?" Isabella couldn't help but suddenly ask in a whisper when she saw Ethan outside the car."Why?"Although Ethan knew exactly what she was referring to, he pretended to be confused."Umm... I don't know how to explain it." Isabella put a finger on her chin, pondering for a second before answering. "You suddenly look quite handsome today.""You mean I wasn't handsome before?"Ethan raised an eyebrow and playfully flicked her forehead. "Don't think about useless things. Just follow me in and don't do anything when inside unless I ask you to."With that, he moved forward, while Isabella, rubbing her forehead with a mixture of surprise and curiosity, silently followed him.Since it was noon and time for lunch, he went straight to the dining hall, where the seating hierarchy was immediately apparent.Different dishes were meticulously laid out at various spots along the table.Already aware of this arrangement, Ethan purposefully sat in the head chair, the

  • Ch 5: My Precious Secretary

    For a moment, Ethan was really completely baffled by those words, but then he simply ignored Veronica with a single word."Idiot.""Damn it! You surnamed Ashford, who are you calling an idiot?!"Before Veronica could react, Damien jumped out, pointing his finger at Ethan's nose, his face full of disdain and arrogance."It's just 250 million, right? What's the big deal? Veronica, don't be afraid. With me here, I'll pay this money!"Damien patted his chest, swearing confidently.Ever since he obtained his superhuman strength, making him physically stronger than the strongest human shown on television, he felt as if he had been possessed by the goddess of luck.Whether he was picking up bargains at the antique shops or testing his luck at the casino, everything went smoothly.He firmly believed that he was the protagonist of this world. A mere 250 million, as long as he was given some time, would be nothing to worry about."You, Ethan, what else can you do besides using money to oppress
