Ethan was just seated comfortably in the office. He was quiet, but his mind was very busy.
His eyes looked calm, but deep inside, he felt something strong. Something he had always wanted to do, and it seems he's close to getting it done.
Mr. Anderson at that moment stood in front of Ethan, his hands started shaking even more.
He couldn't believe what he had just heard. Everyone in the office looked at Ethan like they had seen a ghost. No one could speak.
They couldn't believe a normal bank would allow someone to transfer two billion dollars all in one go without going to the bank for some documentation, and the thought of Ethan having such money in his possession and he didn't need to consult anybody in order to transfer the money make them all shocked to the core.
with a shaking lip Mr. Anderson did waste anytime, he called his account number to Ethan and he transferred the money.
[ investment payment successful.]
The system app sounded and Ethan then faces Mr Anderson and says .
"The payment was successful "
Mr Anderson was Frozen in his position; he couldn't believe Ethan had just transferred two billion dollars into his account. It was a huge amount of money. It was so much that even Mr. Anderson couldn't understand it.
"How could this be?"
he thought to himself. His heart started beating fast, and his hands started trembling as he immediately walked to the table with his shaking leg and he handed Ethan the documents to the hospital.
Ethan took the papers slowly. His face was calm, like nothing big had happened, but his eyes were focused on the documents.
This would be the first time he's signing anything concerning investment under his name and he was grateful for the opportunity.
He signed the document, his hand moving smoothly across the paper. After signing, he looked up at Mr. Anderson, his face serious.
"Mr. Anderson, don't tell anyone about this, it should remain with you"
Ethan said, his voice soft but firm.
Mr. Anderson at that moment nodded quickly.
He couldn't speak. His throat was dry, and he felt weak in the knees.
The young man had just done something, he could never have imagined and the thought of him still in university
Everything looks so disheartening, and made him wonder what he has been doing with his life.
Ethan continued.
"I want you to keep running the hospital, Mr. Anderson. I'm busy with school, so I don't have time to get involved. I trust you will do a good job."
Mr. Anderson couldn't believe what he was hearing. Not only did he pay two billion dollars for the hospital the young boy had just bought, and now he's telling him to keep running it? Mr. Anderson's hands shook more as he nodded again.
"I will do as you say, Mr.Ethan"
he finally managed to whisper.
Ethan smiled a little, a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. He felt like he was carrying a heavy weight, but he didn't want anyone to know, because he knows from now on his once boring life has taken another part.
"Also don't tell any of the staff that I owns hospital, it should also remain between us,"
Ethan said, his voice still calm.
"make sure no one else knows. I want to keep this private, I will be coming once in a while to check things out myself."
Mr. Anderson was still in shock as his gaze was focused on Ethan's lips ; he couldn't believe the words coming out of it.
"How can this young boy be so powerful? he's commanding respect and he doesn't know the family he came from, how is that even possible"
He thought to himself. His mind was still racing, but he didn't ask any questions. He just nodded again, trying to keep his hands from shaking too much.
Ethan at that moment looked around the room.
Everyone was staring at him with wide eyes, their mouths slightly open and words refused to come out.
He could see the surprise and confusion on their faces. Some looked scared, while others were just shocked. No one could believe what they had just witnessed.
Ethan took a deep breath, feeling the air fill his lungs.
He needed to keep his mind clear. He walked over to the table where a single document lay. It was the document that Miss Grace had brought earlier, the one that contains the information of the old man that saved his life.
Ethan picked it up, his fingers feeling the paper's. He knew this document was important, but right now, he had other things on his mind. The system has a message for him.
He walked out of the office, with the document in his hand, and made his way to his VIP ward in the hospital. As he walked out, he could feel the eyes of the staff on him. They were whispering, trying to understand what had just happened.
But Ethan didn't care. He had bigger things to think about now.
He got to his VIP room, he sat down on the soft bed.
The room was quiet, and the only sound was the soft humming of the air conditioner.
he said softly.
"System"
immediately the message popped out.
[ You have acquired 20 point for successful investing 2 billion dollars]
Ethan smiled as he leaned back, feeling the cool air on his face. Since he has gotten 20 point He needed to think how he could use them wisely.
He closed his eyes, his mind going through all the possibilities.
He knew that these system points could change something about him but he had to be careful.
He didn't want to make any mistakes.
As he sat there, thinking about what to do next, the room felt heavy with silence.
The weight of what he had just done settled on his shoulders, but Ethan knew he couldn't stop now. He had started something big, and there was no turning back since he only has.
Strength— 0
Speed— 0
Body (Charm): 0
Intelligent— 0
He wondered which to focus on first.
At that moment he whispered again.
"System"
