Ethan arrived at the hideout where Albert, Maxime, and Austin waited for their return. They were excited, hoping Athena was with him.
Ethan was walking in a daze when Albert approached him with a smile plastered on his face. “I’m glad you’re back… Where’s Athena? Did you find her?” his father-in-law asked. His hands rested on Ethan’s shoulders as he looked around to see if Athena was behind him, but his face fell when he didn’t see her anywhere.
A tear escaped Ethan’s eye as he felt disappointed in himself. He clenched his fist, gnashed his teeth, and his eyes blazed with fire as his nose flared up. Without saying a word, he walked away from the group and headed to the dungeon, where Ina, Max, and Andrew were locked up.
He visited Andrew’s cell first and ordered his men to bring several weapons for torture. ‘Now that you’re in my hands… I can get justice for my parents.’ He thought while opening the cell.
