Chapter 36
he pointed at Ethan.
" you\'re broke, don\'t you dare try to deceive me"
The guy\'s deadly gaze was still focused on Ethan.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ethan at that moment grinned, cool as a cucumber.
"That\'s alright my man, you might have heard something about me before but not now, at least give me the benefit of doubt before you Conclude. like I have said I will give you Ten times what Jay slipped you to delete the video"
The guy however, wasn\'t having any of that and he shook his head in disbelief.
"This is crazy. You\'re crazy. Where are you going to get that kind of cash from?"
Ethan tapped the side of his nose. "Don\'t you worry about that. I\'ve got it covered. The question is, do you want it or not?"
The guy hesitated, but the amount kept ringing in his head, and for some reason it seems he believed Ethan was telling the truth.
At that moment he took a deep breath.
"I don\'t know, Ethan. I mean, I already told Jay I\'d get rid of the video. He paid me, and if he finds the video somewhere else he\'s coming for my head."
Ethan knows all about that, however he puts a friendly arm around the guy\'s shoulders, and said softly.
"Listen, buddy. Jay\'s not your friend. He\'s just using you. But me? I\'m a man of my word. I said I\'ll give you $1000 and I will.
All you gotta do is get that video back and keep it safe until I say otherwise."
Upon hearing Ethan\'s reassuring voice, the guy looked at him, searching Ethan\'s face for any sign of unseriousness but he didn\'t find any. Then Slowly, a smile spread across his lips.
"Alright, alright. You got a deal. Let me just..."
He was still talking when he pulled out his phone and started tapping the screen.
"Good thing he doesn\'t know my phone has a trash space, and I didn\'t empty my trash yet. And...there! Your Video has been restored. Now, about that cash..."
Ethan at that moment whipped out his own phone.
The guy said immediately.
" Please donate the money to my channel"
Ethan nodded, and said.
"Already on it."
And without wasting anymore time he said
"Check your channel."
The guy immediately opened his channel donation, immediately his eyes bugged out as he saw the donation alert.
"Holy guacamole! You actually did it! Ethan, you beautiful crazy son of a gun, you did it!"
Ethan couldn\'t help but smile and clapped the guy on the back.
"Told you I\'m good for it. Now, there\'s one more teensy little thing I need from you..."
without wasting anymore time the guy immediately Leaned in, And Ethan whispered his plan into the guy\'s ear.
As he listened, the guy\'s smile grew wider and wider until he was positively beaming.
"Oh man, Ethan. You are diabolical. I love it! Consider it done, don\'t I will do everything perfectly."
Ethan gave him a conspiratorial wink.
"Knew I could count on you. See you at the game. It\'s going to be one for the record books!"
As Ethan sauntered away, the guy shook his head, chuckling under his breath.
"Unbelievable. That dude is full of surprises."
He looked down at the video, now safely restored on his phone.
"Jay, my man, you have no idea what\'s about to hit you, your arrogant cause everything"
He walked away.
Not long after the groundbreaking Match was about to start.
The stands were packed as the two teams took the field for the championship game.
In the commentators\' booth, they were hyping up the crowd.
"Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the game we\'ve all been waiting for! I know each and everyone of you is as excited as I\'m,
First, allow me to introduce both teams.
In the orange and black., we have our own hometown heroes, the Golden Plates Tiger!"
The stadium was full of people. They were all wearing orange and black. These were the colors of the Tigers.
The Crowd was very excited. They waved flags and held up signs.
And they started chanting.
"TIGERS! TIGERS! TIGERS!"
They shouted it over and over. It was very loud.
The players smiled and waved at the people.
"TIGERS! TIGERS! TIGERS!"
Ethan at that moment couldn\'t believe the scene he was seeing, the love and excitement in the Crowd face which Boosted his confidence, it was as if he\'s now a professional football star.
The chant continued.
"TIGERS!"
The commentators couldn\'t help but say.
" It seems Golden Plate is well prepared for this match."
Then he shifted his attention to the other team.
"And in the blue and silver, their
arch-rivals, the Silver Knights!"
The Opponents crowd roared, waving their flags and foam fingers. On the side of the field, the players were bouncing on their toes, psyching themselves up.
However, Golden Plates counters with a loud Boo.
"Booooooo!! Boo!!"
" you\'re going down"
all of them stand pointing their index finger down and the boo continues.
"Booooooo!! Boooooo!!"
The commentators at that moment managed to get everyone\'s attention then he continued.
"Now, we all know the Knights have been a powerhouse this season."
the commentator continued.
"They are Undefeated in regular play and looking nigh unstoppable. Their quarterback, Kelly Brickman, has been putting up video game numbers. Over 3000 yards passing and 35 touchdowns! The man\'s a machine!, he\'s the real MVP"
At that moment the Silver Knights\' fans went wild, and they started chanting.
"Brick-man! Brick-man!"
However Golden Plates counters again with a loud Boo.
"Booooooo!! Boo!! Boo!!"
The commentator then said,
"Alright, alright, I know the Knights are feeling very confident about this game, But let\'s not count out Golden Plates just yet! They\'ve got some tricks up their sleeves also, this Should be a barn-burner of a game!"
The commentator then faced the large screen.
the big screen lit up with the Golden Plates\' highlight reel. The crowd cheered as clips of spectacular catches and bone-crunching tackles played out.
But just as the reel was reaching its end, the screen suddenly went blank.
And Confused murmurs rippled through the stands. Down on the field, the players looked around, frowning they didn\'t know what was happening either, the most interesting part was about playing.
Then, a new video popped up.
It was the video of Jay making the bet with Ethan
"If I lose to that loser Ethan, I\'ll be his dog!"
Jay proclaimed.
"I\'ll do anything he says, anytime, anywhere!"
And Before anyone could react the next video entered.
And it was the video of Jay completely naked in the department store.
"Wait...what?"
The commentator sounded as shocked as everyone else.
"Is that...is that not Jay Brown? Did he really just say..."
