Chapter 572 - 194: Ethan is a Father

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

He is just worried that Morgana is so used to working alone and didn't want him to worry, but with what she is doing, it only worries him more

Morgana smiled at what Ethan said, knowing that he is trying to make a joke to try and lighten up their mood, she opened her mouth to argue with him as she likes seeing the change in his facial expressions, but the sound from the system's notification suddenly rang in her mind, making her close her mouth again

Ding...... Host, you have a new notification from the system. By the way, you haven't claimed the wedding gift from the system yet, would you like me to open it for you?

Aside from the wedding gift that the system gave you for your wedding, you also still have many unopened gifts and rewards from all your previous missions. Would you like to check it now? Who knows, maybe there is something in it that would interest you"

The system said to Morgana as the robotic voice of the system continue echoing in her brain making her feels like her head went numb from listening to it

"... No, I don't have time to do it yet, maybe after the honeymoon period, when I am back on the field doing mission, I will try to find some time to check all those gifts and rewards, as for now, I needed a little bit time alone with my husband, so I would have to bother you to please not disturb me unless it was really important"

Morgana said to the system, with her head down so that Ethan won't notice that her mind is currently occupied with the matters concerning the system's notification and gifts.

But to her dismay, Ethan misinterpret her reaction, thinking that she gets angry because of everything that he said to her, although he didn't know if there is something wrong or bad with what he said, seeing Morgana looking down on the floor as if her father castigated her, Ethan immediately felt guilty in his heart

He practically didn't know what to say as he didn't know if Morgana is angry or what, as she suddenly stopped talking to him

He wanted to lift Morgana's chin to know what she is thinking and apologize if he made her upset when Morgana raised her head all of a sudden to look at him smiling smugly

" Got ya there!!! You think that I am upset, don't ya? Haha, I am sorry honey I know my mistakes, and I know that you are only worried about me. Anyway, can you tell me something about the new assignment that the Eagle squad is investigating?

Who knows, maybe my sister and the gangster team can help you gather information and finds out who is that person who is behind the assassination attempt on you. I am worried that if that person finds out that the person he hired to kill you, failed, he will find another assassin to assassinate you"

Morgana said seriously after attempting to crack a joke, but instead of making Ethan laughed it only startled him and made him speeches for a while, just watching her while she continues blabbering

Ethan gave her a few tips about the current assignment that the Eagle squad are investigating before telling her not to worry about it as he was going to make a call at the headquarters to inform them about the failed assassination last night

After that, their honeymoon went smoothly. In a blink of an eye, the honeymoon period is over, and they have to go back to work separately

As they already discussed it, Ethan and Morgana will be living in a house that Ethan bought before the wedding. Since Kate is already dead and no one is living in the house gifted to them by their parents on their wedding, Ethan decided to sell the house where he and Kate live together but in a separate rooms 

Months passed, the newlywed couple is both busy with their works, after hacking into the Eagle squad's system Morgana finally found the identity of the person who ordered the assassin to assassinate her husband. It turns out that it was a man who has a high position in the Daredevil organization, a newly established organization that has been currently rampaging against the government declaring an all-out war as they openly killed police officers and kidnap high ranking officials in the government

The said organization is creating havoc everywhere bombing public places like groceries and hospitals. They are not afraid of the government and even have the guts taunting the government to retaliate and try to save the people that they kidnapped
