Chapter 119
Ethan remained frozen in his position, his eyes wide with disbelief as he watched the chaos unfold around him.
The crowd's pleas grew even louder, their desperation palpable in their face .
"Please, help us!"
they cried, their faces etched with pain and hope.
Ethan's heart raced, his mind reeling with the weight of their words.
"I can't just leave them like this, even though it's risky"
he thought, his fists clenching at his sides.
Just then, a sleek Ferrari screeched to a halt at the scene, its engine purring like a wild cat.
immediately the door swung open, and a young woman stepped out, her presence commanding attention.
immediately gasps and whispers rippled through the crowd as they recognized her immediately.
She is a renowned celebrity star in the country, affiliated with the entertainment company Ethan had just acquired.
"Look, it's Alex Gold!"
someone shouted, pointing at Alex.
"She's the lead actress from that hit movie!"
immediately without wasting anymore time Alex approached Ethan with purpose, her high heels clicking against the pavement.
Her beauty was breathtaking, and her aura was nothing less of full confidence and glamor.
She fixed her gaze on Ethan, with a bright smile playing on her lips.
"Mr. Godly Investor,"
she said, her voice smooth as silk, "I was asked to pick you up. Please, come with me."
Upon hearing what the lady just said Ethan's heart skipped a beat as he met her gaze, her words and beauty stealing his full attention.
He felt an inexplicable pull towards her, a desire to escape the chaos and seek refuge in her company. "I... I don't know,"
he stammered, his eyes darting between the woman and the crowd. "These people need my help."
At that moment Alex leaned in closer, her perfume intoxicating Ethan.
"I understand,"
she whispered, her breath warm against his ear.
"I'm just trying to help,"
he said, his voice calm and steady. "That's all that matters right now."
At that moment one of the Journalists managed to see himself in front of others, and without wasting any more time he said immediately.
" Mr Godly Investor, are you trying to go into politics, is that the reason you're donating this much money, and you even bought a TV station, is this all a plan, say something, anything at all."
All of them were waiting for Ethan to say something or deny the claim, but instead he walked closer to Alex and without wasting any more time she entered her car.
Without wasting anymore time Alex drove off.
As they sped away from the scene.
The Media was still busy taking pictures, some of them were busy cooking up stories in their laptops. Alex, who has been keeping quiet for some minutes, couldn't help but glance at Ethan, her curiosity burning.
"That was incredible,"
she said softly, her voice filled with wonder.
"I've never seen anyone do something like that before. What made you decide to help them?" Stay connected via empire
Ethan remained silent, his mind reeling from the events that had just transpired.
Alex nodded, she could tell she just crossed her boundary.
At that moment Alex was kind of confused about the direction she should take.
with a clam and low voice she said to Ethan.
"Do you want me to take you home?"
she asked gently.
"Or, if you prefer, you can spend the night at my place. Nobody will disturb you there. You'll be safe."
Ethan considered her offer, realizing that he had nowhere else to go.
The thought of returning to the dormitory or facing Naomi's questions seemed daunting.
He needed a moment to breathe, to process everything that had happened.
But one thing was for sure he helped some many people today in the process, which makes him happy.
At that moment the system sounded.
And Ethan brought out his phone, it was a message from the system rewarding him 10 points, which means he donated 100 million dollars to the people.
With a heavy sigh, Ethan met Alex 's gaze and said.
"Take me to your house."
