Chapter 15
Ethan's eyes widened a little bit as he held the bank card in his hand even more tightly, He started staring at it with mixed feelings.
'One million dollars is a lot of money, more than what I could even dream of making in my entire life and now it's on my position, I'm holding it in my hands"
Ethan said to himself.
However, something about it felt strange. It didn't feel as big as he thought it would, almost like it wasn't real. Still, he couldn't deny the excitement bubbling up inside him. He had never had this much money in his life.
Mr. Davis was still standing quietly; he didn't say anything but watched Ethan closely, sensing his uncertainty.
"Sir Ethan"
he said softly.
"If you need anything bothering you, you can always reach out to me. I'm at your service now."
immediately he Stretch fought his
hand, and handed Ethan a small piece of paper with his contact information scribbled on it.
"Here's my number. Don't hesitate to call, and I will come running"
Ethan nodded and took the paper, slipping it into his pocket.
Mr. Davis bow and turn he was about to leave when a thought comes to his mind.
'Now that I have the money to get new clothes, where I'm I getting the clothes from, he still wouldn't be able to come out dressed in the hospital clothe'
Before Davis could leave Ethan stopped him.
"By the way"
Ethan added, glancing down at the hospital gown he was still wearing, "I need some normal clothes. Can you help with that?"
without hesitating , he responded immediately with a smiling face.
"Of course!"
Mr. Davis responded immediately, almost as if he had been waiting for Ethan to ask him for a favor.
"Just give me a minute, I'll go get something for you right away."
without wasting any more time Davis immediately left the room.
Ethan was surprised in the manner in which Davis just acted.
" Definitely it's because I'm now his boss, this is why he's acting this way, normally he won't even dare listen to me but now he's running to go get me clothes. So that is what having Money can do, it commands respect"
Ethan said to himself.
Within minutes, Mr. Davis returned with a simple set of clothes—jeans, a t-shirt, and a jacket, a perfect clothes combination for a university student.
"Here you go, boss"
"You came just in time! I'm about to leave. How about you pick the restaurant we go to?"
Ethan was taken aback by Julian's sudden enthusiasm. He hadn't expected this kind of behavior from her and he noticed her boobs tightly pressed to his hands.
"Um, sure"
he said, trying to mask his surprise. But in the back of his mind, he couldn't help but wonder
'I know she is acting this way because of the people I helped in the hospital, If that is the reason she's acting like this just because of that, what would she do if she finds out i actually owned eighty percent share of the hospital now?
She might just forced herself on me"
Ethan murmured to himself.
At that moment Julian didn't seem to notice Ethan's hesitation.
She clung to his arm even more tightly, her smile never fading.
"You don't know how relieved I am, Ethan"
She said, almost whispering.
"This hospital... Well, it's been going through some tough times. I wasn't sure what would happen. But now that you're here, it feels like everything's going to be okay, I can feel it"
Julian said with a smiling face, but deep down she want to get Ethan to herself.
' The hospital would be closing soon, and Ethan came in at the right time, a rich kid, and I'm going to make sure I get him all to myself, even if the hospital shut down at least I benefited something from it'
Julian Said to himself as she was still smiling at Ethan.
Ethan nodded, but he wasn't really listening to her words. His mind was elsewhere, thinking about Julian's sudden behavior.
He glanced at her—she was beautiful, there was no denying that.
Her long hair framed her face perfectly, and her eyes sparkled with life.
But something about her behavior felt off. It was almost like she was trying too hard, clinging to him in a way that made him uncomfortable and he doesn't like desperate ladies, and her attitude earlier made him doesn't want anything with her, he's going to teach her some manners, about being respectful and not looking down on others.
"Julian"
Ethan began, as he forced his hand from her grip.
"I'm not going out with you"
he said with an angry tone.
Ethan walked to the exit and then suddenly stopped in front of Annabelle, who had been standing quietly by the door, who was watching the interaction end with a calm expression.
She was different from Julian, She didn't say anything bad to him earlier
"Annabelle"
Ethan said, his voice soft but clear, "would you go out with me"
