Ethan's mind was still reeling from the events of the night, so he decided to return to his school dorm instead of going back to the estate or staying at Naomi's residence.
Not long after he arrived at the school and headed to his dorm.
As he entered his dorm room, he was greeted by the shocked faces of his friends.
"Ethan!"
they exclaimed, their eyes wide with surprise and concern.
immediately they rushed towards him, their hands reaching out to touch his shoulders, as if to reassure themselves that he was really there.
"Where have you been, man? We thought you were expelled or kidnapped from the school!"
One of them said with a worried face.
At that moment Ethan's expression weary but determined, he then shook his head, and ran a hand through his hair, his eyes closing for a moment as he tried to gather his thoughts on what he was going to say.
"I've been running some side jobs, you all know I need money now."
