Chapter 128


    Earon was unaware of the situation, so he did not say anything. He pushed the buns toward Ethan.


    Wilbur sighed because Ethan was sobbing uncontrobly. He said, “Let’s eat first and talkter.”


    Ethan wiped his tears and nodded silently. Then, he started to eat because he was famished.


    A few customers cast them judgmental nces. A woman mumbled quietly, “What the hell? Why did he


    invite the beggar to eat?”


    Wilbur instantly got triggered. He red at the woman and said, “This is my brother. He’s not a beggar.


    You better watch your filthy mouth.”


    The woman jolted in fear because of his cold gaze. She hurriedly turned around and kept quiet.


    Wilbur scoffed, and he continued to eat with Ethan.


    He was finally full after a while. Wilbur passed him a tissue and said, “Now, tell me what happened.”


    Ethan sighed and started to tell his story.


    Ethan retired from the military and received over ten million dors from Wilbur. Ele returned to his


    hometown, which was a small town in Kardon Province.


    Even as a disabled veteran, he could live afortable life with that kind of money. He could even be


    considered a notable figure in his hometown.


    However, a childhood friend of his was aware of his wealth and approached him with an investment


    opportunity in a mine, promising him great profits.


    Ethan trusted his childhood friend and agreed to the proposal.


    That was the start of the scam. He was left penniless, and the scammer was long gone after he


    realized the situation.


    Ethan panicked.


    He had to take care of his parents, and he could not work because he was cr ippled. His family was


    doomed without the money.


    He never feared death on the battlefield, but for the first time, he wanted to die. He even made multiple


    attempts to take his


    own life.


    His ssmate, Wendy Lester, noticed his suicidal tendency and saved him. Otherwise, he would be


    dead.


    Wendy was also his childhood friend. She was extremely nice to Ethan. She kept guiding him and


    stayed with him. Finally, he decided not to take his own life and wanted to live again.


    A development project was underway in their small town, and his house happened to be within the area


    designated for demolition.


    Thepensation was over a million dors, so Ethan felt relieved that he could at least survive with


    that money.


    Little did he know that the person in charge of the construction was a local bully.


    That person was involved in moneyundering. He was a maniptor. Thepensation from the


    government dwindled to at mere twenty thousand durs after going through his hands.


    Ethan could not ept it. All his neighbors received over a million dors, so why was be the only one


    with 20 thousand dors? The person in charge was clearly taking advantage of Ethan’s disability.


    Ethan fought for his right, and he refused to move.


    The bully demolished Ethan’s house in the middle of the night because he was furious.


    Because of that, Ethan’s parents were buried alive. He survived because Wernly asked him out for a


    stroll

    That was thest straw for Ethan


    He lost an arm, and he could not walk. He could not do anything even if he wanted to fight.


    He fell into despair.


    However, Wendy helped Ethan again by giving him money to file awsuit.


    That was one year ago, and there was no progress at all.


    Ethan lost his will to live again.


    However, Wendy helped him out once more. She told him to visit Seechertown.


    He submitted documents in Seechertown with thest shred of hope he had left. This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    It had been a few days, but there was no news. He was penniless, so he had to resort to living on the


    streets.


    Wilbur pped the table and it fell apart.


    “Stop.” Wilbur was enraged. He could not bear to listen further.
