The sea breeze blew over, giving Joshua goosebumps on his back.In the past, his job was to simply carry out orders from Ethan. He didn't know the complex story behind this.Just what kind of fray was Ethan in?Other than having a dysfunctional family, he had to face multiple schemes in business."Mr. Miller, what should we do now?" inquired Joshua.Ethan's eyes were dark, and his voice was icy. "Tell Brent to not hold himself back. Make himself at home. Destroy anything that has to be destroyed. I want to tell them that it isn't easy to gain that 34 million dollars."He threw the cigarette butt into the sea. His expression behind the mask turned gloomier. "Since they've taken what's mine, they should pay back with interest."Joshua's eyes brightened at Ethan's brilliant idea.During the past few days, Ethan got to know the number of enemies on the ship. If he took action now, he would have the upper hand.Even if the enemy called for backup, it would take at least six hours
Olivia's face turned beet red after she blurted that. Had she not built up her willpower through chemotherapy, she would've already lost control of herself.Ethan stared at the embarrassed woman. Despite knowing that she was acting this way because of the drugs, he couldn't help his racing heartbeat."I'll face my back at you then. I won't look at you." He turned around, gazing out of the window.The night sea was somber without the touch of gleaming sunlight. He could hear the whirring sound of helicopters approaching.The real party was going to begin.Almost ten minutes later, the sound of a woman moaning suddenly resounded behind him.Ethan hurriedly turned around, only to see her red face. Aside from her hair and body, her eyes were watery too. The corners of her eyes were red.She was fatally sexy."Miss, are you … alright?"The groggy Olivia wanted to get up in the bathtub, but her weak limbs wouldn't listen to her head.She fell the second she stood up."Be careful
Ethan hugged Olivia in silence. He had no intention of forcing her."Miss, now that things have come to this point, let's leave other matters aside. We can talk about them later. Now, we gotta solve your situation. I know you don't want to give yourself to others. But there's no other solution we can opt for."He took a breath before continuing, "I can guarantee you that I won't tell anyone about tonight. After today, nothing will change. Everything will be the same. If you don't like me, I can … ask others to replace me. Like Joshua or—"She covered his mouth, glaring at him. "If I have no other choice, I'd rather it be you."At least, they knew each other well.However, she didn't want to take it that far.Unlike her words, her body was following her instinct, grinding against his.Hugging the man's waist no longer satiated her need. The urge to proceed to the next step was killing her.Images of intertwining with Ethan on the bed flashed across Olivia's head. She wanted it
"Don't bite it. It hurts me to see you do that."An image converged in Olivia's mind. Back when she first dated Ethan, she hadn't had sex before.Thinking that it was embarrassing to moan, she bit her lip every time to stop herself from moaning.Until that one day, Ethan raised her chin from behind and said those words.She could still vividly remember how crazy that night was.Now, Olivia didn't know how enticing she looked right now. Her eyes were covered by the silver veil.He lifted her chin, forcing her to raise her head and reveal her neck.The messy dress drooped from her shoulders, exposing her fair arms and sexy collarbone. The glitter shimmered under the light.Slowly, Ethan bent over to kiss the lips he had been missing crazily all this time.Olivia's first reaction was to avoid his kiss. After all, he was conscious right now. How could he …She placed her hands against his chest, feeling the warmth seeping from his body before warming her palms.She wondered why
The one who kicked the door open was none other than Joshua.The stiff character he usually displayed in front of Ethan and Olivia was no longer there.Joshua had even changed his mask to a Grim Reaper one. He appeared cool as the sea breeze caressed his skin."Bingo! I am coming after you."Flora barked, "Who are you? Do you know where you are right now? How dare you act this way on the ship!"In the meantime, she armed the alarm system. The enforcers charged over with their weapons first thing after hearing the alarm.She had yet to realize the solemnity of the situation. "Do you know what happened to the previous person who acted waywardly on the ship? He was dismembered and fed to the sharks."At this moment, the men on the helicopters slid down the ropes and landed on the deck. Each one of them was wearing bulletproof gear and holding a weapon. Their heavy boots stomped on the deck, unleashing an intimidating aura.The majority of Flora's enforcers had their hands staine
The man on the rooftop of a skyscraper, which was located far away from the ship, was watching the incident transpire on the vessel.When a worried Rhys contacted him to tell him about the helicopters, he had been celebrating the occasion because he had finally caught Ethan's fault."Let them be. The merrier the better."Rhys wondered, "Is the boss drunk? How could he say that?"It was worth sacrificing a ship to take Ethan down.Yet, Ethan's backup was unexpectedly mercenary soldiers! The man's expression changed almost instantly.Ethan didn't wield his military authority!In other words, the man couldn't prove that it was Ethan on the ship!"Stop them! Hurry!""It's too late, sir! They—" The call ended with a scream.Anxious, the man turned on the surveillance footage, only to realize that someone had broken the surveillance cameras.The positions of the surveillance cameras were compromised. It wasn't a coincidence.A few days ago, Ethan had set his plan into motion wh
The gentle sunlight shone on the sea. The surface glimmered as it reflected the light. Peace had finally returned to the ship after a night of chaos. The vessel gently floated on the sea. It had been a devastating night for the guests. The basic infrastructure on the ship was destroyed. The ATMs were broken into, and the cash inside was taken. The cash in the casino was taken too. Everything else was either destroyed or taken. The wealthy businessmen were naked. The gamblers lost so much that they crouched in a corner and dared not make any moves.They were still lucky to be alive. They got off easy, just losing their money.Brent dragged Flora to a high place so that she could see all the chaos below. With tears in her eyes, she shrieked, "No, no. Please stop!" She didn't expect her moment of desire to lead to such a catastrophic disaster. She was used to getting her way on the ship. She was the queen of the ship when her employer wasn't around. She did whatever she want
The mercenaries took everything of value on the ship and left. Olivia had been moved in her sleep shortly before daybreak. Ethan freshened himself up and opened the door. The fresh sea breeze brushed against his face, lifting his spirits. Apart from the floor they were on, everywhere else was in a mess. Most of the people had left the ship. Only his men remained. More than a hundred thugs were tied up and left crouching on the ground. Brent released Flora, who then rushed downstairs. Everything was a mess—the restaurant, ballroom, luxury stores, and entertainment facilities. Flora fell to her knees and wept. "It's destroyed. Everything's ruined."She staggered to the bar. She used to enjoy sitting here and mixing some drinks for herself. She enjoyed looking down at the others from a high place.All of the expensive alcohol had been taken. The cheap ones were smashed on the floor. She slowly walked over, kneeled down, and picked up half a bottle of wine. She held the bro
