Chapter 145
Ethan was still reeling from the news of Mara’s critical condition when he heard his father order him to go capture Mira.
“Dad, is that really a good idea p>
“What’s good or not good about it? Are you just going to stand here and watch Mara die? It’s settled. Go now p>
He then looked at the assistant beside him. “Go pick out the best men p>
Out of Ethan’s line of sight, he gestured to the assistant, signaling him to instruct the experts to seize Mira on sight. He knew his eldest son’s character and worried that Ethan would be too soft to act.
Ethan, however, was thinking that this was the only option left. He would try to persuade Mira one more time.
“I have to get to the office. There’s a pile of things to handle there. You must bring Mira back. I’ll leave Mara in your second brother’s hands,” Mr. Mercer instructed.
That was true. With all of them at the hospital, who knew what was happening at the company? Had news of this incident spread online?
Ethan nodded and went to make preparations.
With the men of the family gone on their missions, Lacey was left to pace outside the hospital room alone.
She sobbed as she called Wesley. “Mara is on the brink of death, and it’s all because of you! You haven’t even come to the hospital to see her once. Are you even a man p>
“Ma’am, I’m Natalie’s fiancé now. I have to maintain a proper distance. The matter of her pregnancy was supposed to have been handled. We compensated you with a huge piece of land and provided all the necessary funds. Why didn’t she go through with the procedure? Besides, what happened at the hotel was a trap set by Mara. She drugged my drink. You’re not unaware of that p>
If she had just dealt with it sooner, none of this would have happened.
With that, Wesley hung up, leaving Lacey seething with anger.
The Mercer family was powerless to retaliate against Natalie. The Rivers family was just as prominent, and in a situation like this, their first priority was to protect their own daughter. Everything else would be settled with money.
Mira checked and found that there were no significant reports about the incident online. It was likely suppressed by the powerful families involved, as letting the story spread would benefit none of them.
After her first martial arts class, during a break, Mira was scrolling through her phone with a cup of water when the front desk called to say she had a visitor. “Oliver, who is it p>
“A man named Ethan. He’s here with six other men p>
He glanced at the group out of the corner of his eye and covered the receiver with
his hand, whispering a warning, “They don’t look friendly p>
“Got it. Thanks, Oliver p>
Mira hung up and prepared to go out.
“What, more trouble?” Master Ellis asked from the side.
When Med, he became instantly excited. “Let’s gall go go
in you havent had a good fight
I’m dying for some action p>
Mira was surprised by her master’s eagerness for a fight.
Seeing this, Owen quickly intervened. “Master, you don’t need to overkill it. I’ll
handle this. I’ll go with my Mira. You should rest p>
“Hey, even a sledgehammer gets rusty if you don’t use it. They’re already at our door, How can we
hide? Let’s go. We got
go together
And so, Mira walked towards the reception area, followed by two top-tier bodyguards.
Ethan heard footsteps, looked up, and was stunned to see Mira.
He pointed at the two men behind her and asked, “Who are they p>
“We are Miss Mercer’s bodyguards,” Master Ellis answered before Mira could.
Mira shot him a look, thinking, *Give me a break. I could never afford to hire you p>
Ethan stared at the two men for
moment. Although they concealed it well, Ethan was a martial artist himself and could feel the immense, powerful presence emanating from them He had never encountered an aura as strong as the one from the older man.
When did masters of this caliber arrive in Melvion City?
