Ethan Smith nervously watched Emily Taylor, stuttering without uttering a single sentence.
At this moment, Emily Taylor suddenly lay down on the bed, then closed her eyes, assuming a posture that left herself at his disposal.
Ethan Smith looked at Emily Taylor lying on the bed, his heart getting more intense.
And Emily Taylor kept her eyes shut, not saying a word.
Ethan Smith sat there for a long time, he took a deep breath, and said: ‘Miss
Taylor, you should rest early, I’m going back to my room.”
This surprised Emily Taylor a bit, she sat up from the bed, looked at Ethan Smith and said: “You…really don’t want to do anything?”
“I do.” Ethan Smith nodded without thinking.
“But I am not worthy of you right now. You have helped me plenty already. I hope that I can help and protect you in the future,” Ethan Smith said earnestly.
His gaze and tone were full of determination, leaving no room for doubt.
Emily Taylor seemed very satisfied with Ethan Smith’s reply, she nodded, and chuckled: “Go back and sleep.”
Ethan Smith quickly turned and retreated to his room, took a cold shower, and finally managed to calm himself down.
“Phew, that was close. I nearly lost control.” Ethan Smith took a deep breath.
Afterwards, Ethan Smith took out the jade pendant from his pocket, prepared to make a protective amulet for Emily Taylor.
He closed his eyes, feeling the heritage in his mind.
Soon, Ethan Smith found a protective cultivation skill named “Form One Dharma Decree” in the heritage.
This protective skill has a large effect, not only can it ward off disasters, rejuvenate beauty, but it can also save lives in critical moments.
Once faced with a life-threatening situation, the protective amulet will come into effect.
The only drawback is that it can only be used once. Once it’s used, the amulet will shatter.
“It’s you.” Ethan Smith thought to himself.
The Form One Dharma Decree requires great effort from the current Ethan Smith. He spent the entire night, dropped fifteen drops of blood essence, but still couldn’t successfully refine it, only managed to refine a semi-finished product.
“Looks like I’ll have to work on this for another night,” Ethan Smith said weakly.
As dawn approached, Ethan Smith quickly washed up and left his room.
Emily Taylor had already finished packing early. When she saw Ethan Smith, she blinked and said, “There is an amusement park nearby, shall we go and have some fun?”
“Alright.” Although Ethan Smith was a bit tired, he didn’t want to disappoint, so he agreed.
After they had breakfast, they headed towards the amusement park.
After Asher Lane returned home, he immediately instructed his men to look into Emily Taylor’s background.
“Younger Lord of Lane Family, that girl is Miss Taylor of the Taylor Family of the Capital City, Emily Taylor,” His subordinate reported to Asher Lane.
“What?!” Asher Lane jolted up upon hearing this!
His face turned grave, a chill creeping up his back!
“That was close, I almost brought disaster upon the entire Lane Family…” Asher Lane was overwhelmed with fear.
The incident with the Hill family was still fresh in his memory, this was like walking into a gunfight.
“But…that Ethan Smith doesn’t seem to be capable of anything,” his subordinate continued.
Asher Lane gave him a glance, motioning him to continue.
“According to our investigation, Ethan Smith is from River City, for some unknown reason, he has gained the favor of Miss Taylor.”
Hearing this, Asher Lane said impatiently: “Isn’t that just stating the obvious!
With Miss Taylor backing him up, who would dare provoke him!”
“Younger Lord of Lane Family, I heard that Miss Taylor is about to return to the Capital City, by then we might have an opportunity,” His man continued.
“Moreover…the Taylor’s may not necessarily think highly of this Ethan Smith.”
Asher Lane’s eyes lit up.
He couldn’t help but recall the words spoken by Cato Cain last night.
From Cato Cain’s tone, it was clear that the Taylor Family did not think highly of this Ethan Smith.
“There seems to be still a chance then.” Cato Cain squinted his eves, contemplating in his heart.
He snorted softly, saying, “Once Miss Taylor leaves the Capital City, I’m going to personally talk to this Ethan Smith.”
“Yes, Young Master,” his subordinate nodded.
“Also, today one of our artists is taking pictures at the amusement park, should we go check it out?” his subordinate continued.
Asher Lane thought for a moment, then nodded, “Hmm, I also planned to go out and clear my mind. Prepare the car.”
The amusement park is the largest in South City.
As a coastal city, it naturally attracts a lot of tourists each year.
As soon as she entered the amusement park, Emily Taylor became a tender little princess, extremely joyful and happy.
Observing from a distance, Cato Cain couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s hard to believe that the young miss in front of me is the same person as the CEO from the Capital City… ‘
“Yeah, I’ve never seen Miss Taylor smile so happily before,” others around him echoed.
Ethan Smith and Emily Taylor played almost every game in the amusement park, like the pendulum, roller coaster, haunted house, and so on.
This warm and happy feeling made them both reluctant to leave.
“Shall we take photos on the Ferris Wheel?” At this moment, Emily Taylor suddenly suggested.
“Sure, I have never been on a Ferris Wheel before!” Ethan Smith laughed.
Then, Emily Taylor grabbed Ethan Smith’s hand, and they ran towards the Ferris Wheel.
Just after buying the tickets, suddenly, seven or eight bodyguards rushed over.
“Move aside, we’re claiming this place!” the leading bodyguard commanded arrogantly.
In the middle of them was a dazzlingly dressed girl. The girl wore sunglasses and her face was wrapped up in a veil.
And the one accompanying her was none other than Castro!
“Them again…” Ethan Smith frowned.
“Is that Lyra Howard?” At that moment, someone beside them whispered.
Castro said indifferently, “Correct, it’s Miss Howard. She’s here to scout for locations. Please cooperate.”
“It’s the superstar, Lyra Howard!” “Wow, Lyra Howard is here! Miss Howard, I’m a fan! Can I take a picture with
“Miss Howard, I love you!”
The crowd all started to yell, some tried to move forward to take a picture, but they were pushed back by bodyguards.
“Stay away from Miss Howard! No photos, got that?” Castro pointed at the people around him and scolded.
“I told you not to take photos, didn’t you hear me?” Seeing someone holding a cell phone, Castro stepped forward and threw the fan’s phone onto the ground!
The celebrity called Lyra Howard frowned and scoffed, “Such a bunch of uncouth people, so annoying!”
“Turns out she’s a celebrity, no wonder she’s so arrogant,” Ethan Smith muttered, frowning.
Emily Taylor also snorted, “These little celebrities these days, they become so arrogant once they get a bit of fame. Thinking they’re superior, it’s indeed annoying.”
“All of you, move! Did you hear me?” The bodyguards forcefully dispersed the crowd, shouting impatiently.
Soon, they arrived in front of Ethan Smith and Emily Taylor.
“Quite a coincidence indeed,” Ethan Smith responded coldly.
This time, Castro ignored them and went to Lyra Howard, whispering a few words.
After listening, Lyra Howard didn’t say anything and walked straight to Ethan Smith and Emily Taylor.
She said with an annoyed expression, “You must be fans, right? Trying to get attention ? It’s so annoying. Do you know that this kind of star-chasing is disgusting?”
Hearing this, both Ethan Smith and Emily Taylor felt somewhat baffled.
“You think too highly of yourself. As a D-list celebrity, I haven’t even heard of you,” Emily Taylor responded with a roll of her eyes..
