Chapter 174

Ethan's sudden action sent shockwaves through the room. The sound of shattering glass echoed through the showroom, causing everyone to freeze in their tracks. At that moment Serenity gasped, her hand flying to her mouth, as she watched the scene unfold before her eyes.

Director John, who had been groveling at Ethan's feet just moments before, collapsed to the floor, his face ashen with disbelief. He stared at the ruined car, his mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water, unable to comprehend what had just happened.

The boss, too, seemed stunned by Ethan's actions. His eyes widened, and he took a step back, as if trying to distance himself from the situation.

Ethan, however, remained calm and composed.

At that moment he tossed the baton aside, the metal clanging against the floor. Then he turned to Director John, a small smile playing on his lips.

"Remember our bet, John?"

he asked, his voice low and measured.
