Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Chapter 192 - 192: 192: Shaken by Wind and Rain

“This tiny pill is capable of solving an international problem? It’s simply unbelievable,” Peter murmured.

His words were full of skepticism, but Ethan Smith paid them no mind.

If he hadn’t witnessed everything himself, Ethan might not have believed it too.

Then, Ethan walked over to Nikhil Hansen with an Impulse Protection Pill in hand.

Placing his hand on Nikhil’s chest, Nikhil’s mouth slowly opened after a while.

Ethan quickly popped the Impulse Protection Pill into Nikhil’s mouth, using his own qi to guide the pill into his body.

“Done,” Ethan said, looking at Kathleen Hansen.

“I’ve done everything I can, now it’s up to you,” Ethan told her.

Kathleen nodded, replying, “Let’s go. Dinner is ready, we can chat over the meal.”

“No need for dinner.” Ethan shook his head.

“I have to return right away.”

Kathleen exclaimed in surprise, “You’re in a rush? I was planning to take you out for some fun.”

Ethan muttered, “I don’t know why, but I have a bad feeling.”

This feeling was so strong, it put Ethan on high alert.

When Kathleen saw the determination in Ethan’s departure, she did not insist further.

They followed Ethan out of the villa.

Ethan then collected his cellphone.

The moment he switched it on, he saw several incoming messages.

There were messages from Leonard Schultz, William Richardson, and Ashton Nicholson.

“Ethan, Conrad Schroeder has emerged and has ascended into the Grandmaster Realm. Do not return,” William Richardson said in his message.

“Ethan, did you run away? The entire Chuzzle is buzzing about it. Anyone related to you has been suppressed by the Schroeder family. Ashton Nicholson is even heavily injured…” Leonard Schultz’s message read. Upon reading the messages, Ethan’s expression changed drastically.

“Conrad…Chose this moment to come out,” Ethan said in a low voice.

He urgently turned to Kathleen and said, “I need to return immediately. Does your family have a private jet?”

Kathleen rolled her eyes, “A private jet? Do you think we are the richest family in the country?”

Ethan had no time to joke around and quickly urged, “Then quickly help me book a ticket, the faster the better!”

“What happened?” Matias Howe asked in shock.

Ethan waved his hand, not ottering any explanation.

He then got into Kathleen’s car and raced towards the airport.

En route, Ethan made a phone call to William Richardson.

In no time, the call was answered.

On the other side, William sounded anxious, “Ethan, where have you been the past few days? Why didn’t you leave any messages?”

Ethan answered gravely, “I was caught up in something. What’s the situation in

Chuzzle?”

William was silent for a moment before sighing, “In any case, just don’t come back for now. I’ll try to mediate as much as possible.”

“No.” Ethan’s face looked grim.

“William, I hope you can tell me the truth.” Ethan’s tone was frosty.

At the other end, William could only sigh, “Conrad is looking for you. Anyone related to you has been suppressed. Ashton is in a vegetative state, Leonard is temporarily suspended, and now… Conrad has headed to River City.”

Ethan’s face turned pale instantly!

Anger, instantly surged his chest!

“Ethan, just don’t come back for now,” William warned gravely.

Ethan gritted his teeth. He tried to resist his anger and said, “William, I need a favor.”

“What is it?” William consented.

“Go tell Conrad that I will take full responsibility for my own actions. It has nothing to do with others. I’ll be back in River City in no more than a day.” Ethan’s voice was icy cold.

Uncle William on the other end was immediately horrified and said anxiously, “Have you gone mad? Conrad Schroeder is now a genuine Grandmaster level martial artist, coming back would mean courting death!”

“Even if I die, I won’t let others die in my place!” Ethan Smith said coldly.

“And besides, he is merely one Conrad Schroeder. It’s not like he can certainly kill me.”

Uncle William on the other end wanted to persuade him further, but Ethan Smith was resolute.

Helplessly, Uncle William could only agree.

After hanging up the phone, Ethan Smith looked at Kathleen Hansen and said, “Could you drive a bit faster, please?

In River City.

News of Conrad Schroeder’s arrival was instantly spread.

The higher-ups, in an attempt to keep things calm, immediately shut down Ethan Smith’s factory.

People associated with Ethan Smith back then were in panic at this moment.

“Brother Ray, I heard that Conrad Schroeder is cold-blooded and extremely ruthless, should we hide for a bit?” One of Ray Walters’ subordinates spoke gravely in his office. Ray Walters’ face looked extremely harshHe was scared deep down.

If it came to who was closest to Ethan Smith in River City, it would be him, Ray Walters.

It is very likely that Conrad Schroeder would use him as a warning to others! “We cannot.” After much deliberation, Ray Walters shook his head.

“If I leave, others would end up suffering.”

Ray Walters’ underling muttered, “Brother Ray, even Ethan Smith has fled, what are we staying here for? That Ethan Smith is truly a heartless guy…”

Ray Walters glared at him and reprimanded, “Don’t spout nonsense! I believe Mr. Smith is not that kind of person!”

But despite saying that, he was still worried.

In the recent days, news from Chuzzle kept coming to his ears.

Anyone, even those with the slightest connection to Ethan Smith, had been severely beaten.

Yet there was no appearance of Ethan Smith.

Without a doubt, that must be fabrication.

“As the ancients say, opportunity comes with risks.” Ray Walters clenched his teeth.

“If I can firmly stand by Mr. Smith’s side this time, that would be the greatest opportunity for me!” Ray Walters stands up, fully determined.

For him, reaching where he was today was already his limit.

But who doesn’t have ambitions? Who doesn’t want to hold great power?

The Johnson house.

Simon Johnson and Brenda Johnson were sitting at home watching TV.

At their level, they naturally didn’t know anything about this Conrad Schroeder thing.

They were eating a watermelon while watching a TV drama.

Just then, a Rolls-Royce Ghost stopped at their doorstep.

As the car came to a halt, Conrad Schroeder and Uncle Shane stepped out.

“Leader, this is Ethan Smith’s birth family.” Uncle Shane said.

Conrad Schroeder snorted and said, “Since it’s his birth family, they must be very important to Ethan Smith. Let’s start with them.”

“Yes.” Uncle Shane nodded slightly.

The two men pushed open the door of the Johnsons home, and strode right in. As soon as they entered, Brenda Johnson stared at Conrad Schroeder.

“Who are you? Who let you in?” Brenda Johnson asked, frowning.

Conrad Schroeder glanced at them and asked indifferently, “Is this Ethan

Smith’s home?”

As soon as Ethan Smith was mentioned, Brenda Johnson was so angry she could hardly speak.

“You must be friends with Ethan Smith, right? I’m telling you, get out of here right now!” Brenda Johnson said angrily..
