Chapter 572 - 194: Ethan is a Father (1/2)
Morgana told Ethan everything that happened that night except for the part where she ordered the system to collect the body and repair the window after killing the man
What she told him is that she heard a sound of footsteps outside the bedroom, when she walked out to take a look, she saw that it was a man wearing a black suit holding a silencer gun in his hand
She managed to subdue the man and the man admitted that he was an assassin and have an order to kill Ethan, she was about to call the hotel's security, but she heard a sound coming from the bedroom
As she was anxious thinking that the assassin has an accomplished and was trying to get inside the bedroom through the window, the assassin managed to break free from her grip and escape. Although the man is heavily injured, she didn't bother to chase after him as she rushed inside the bedroom to check on him”
That's what Morgana told Ethan to let him know that someone with a higher position from the new assignment that they are currently investigating has ordered an assassin to kill him
” Well, that's it, I hope that you will not be mad at me because I didn't tell you earlier and I didn't wake you up last night. I know how tired you are and it is not often that you get to sleep as soundly as you sleep last night”
Ethan shook his head, looking at Morgana. He didn't know if he should laugh or cry for having a very capable wife that didn't need him to protect him, instead, it's the other way around. It was his wife who has been protecting him against the assassin all the time, but the only time that she needed him to protect her, he wasn't around at the time and Morgana almost lose her life from that assassin that Kate paid to kill her
” Sweetheart, I know that you love me and that you are always worried about my safety. When I decided to join the Eagle squad, I know that my life will always be in danger.
That is why I trained hard to learn to protect myself, my family, and my country. I am a man and I should be the one protecting you but in the end, you are always the one saving me, just like a damsel in distress, though I am not a damsel and I am hardly any
You should have waked me up, didn't you promise me that whatever happens, we will face the enemies and the dangers together? However, every time that there is danger, you always try to keep it from me”
”...” No, honey I didn't try to keep it from you, I just can't tell you about it because I am afraid that you will be mad
When I heard the footsteps, I didn't wake you up intentionally because I am not sure if I am just hearing things or maybe someone is passing by outside our suite
I just decided to take a look to make sure but when I saw that a man is inside our suite, there is no time for me to wake you up, so I just close the door as I didn't want to disturb your sleep. Anyway, there is no need for you to worry, I just don't want you to be angry
You know that a mere assassin is no match against me. But what worried me most is that guy who wanted you dead, do you have any clue as to who that person is?
The assassin said that the man who ordered him to assassinate you is someone who is connected to the assignment that the Eagle squad is currently investigating
I wanted to question him more but I was distracted by the sound coming from the bedroom, it turns out that it was just a pillow that falls on the floor”
” Honey, I am not angry, I am worried. What if he is an expert assassin? What if something happens and I can't even save you because I am sleeping?
Ah, what am I saying? If something happens to you, then I would have been dead too? Do you understand what I was trying to tell you? We didn't even have a kid, if something happens to us our parents will surely be devastated ”
Ethan said to Morgana feeling bothered as he knows how stubborn Morgana could get, besides, he didn't want to quarrel with her as this is just the second day of their wedding
