Richard turned to Ethan, his voice filled with gratitude. “Ethan, you may have just prevented a disaster. Thank you.”
A nervous smile appeared on the boy’s face. “I just did what I thought was right,” he replied softly.
Richard knew such courage needed recognition. “You deserve more than just thanks. Let’s make sure you’re safe and supported.”
As authorities took control of the investigation, Richard ensured that Ethan had a place to stay and the resources he needed. The story quickly made international headlines—not only for the foiled threat but also for the unlikely hero: a homeless boy whose quick thinking had saved countless lives.
In the days that followed, an unexpected bond grew between Richard and Ethan. Inspired by the boy’s bravery, Richard established a fund to support homeless youth. While he returned to his high-powered life, he carried a new perspective, reminded that sometimes the most valuable insights come from the most unexpected places.
