Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Ethan had been very busy these days.

Seeing him go out so early and come back so late every day, Janet started to wonder what he was up

to exactly.

Ethan was indeed very busy, but he didn‘t tell Janet why right away.

When he found the evidence that Janet was poisoned, he hired the best private detective in Seacisco.

"What? A twenty–year–old case? The streets have been torn down and rebuilt and houses have been

demolished and reconstructed; the world has changed a lot.This is going to be complicated, to say the

least."

This private detective used to be a journalist for Seaciscso‘s famous Gossip Weekly.He was well–

informed and resourceful.

"Be that as it may, I believe in you." Ethan pulled out a newspaper from that year and slid it across the

table.

"I want the information of everyone who had had contact with this woman and Elissa Lester."He had to

dig deeper into the death of his mother.This had to be a lead.Time passed.It took the detective a lot of

effort and resources to find the people related to the case Ethan brought up.

Most of the witnesses had either aged or died over the years, while the rest had moved away.However,

there was still a glimmer of hope.Most of the people who had had contact with Elissa still lived in

Seacisco.They relied on the Lester family to make a living.

Everyone covered up for Elissa, trying hard to conceal the truth.It probably never crossed their mind

that Sylvia‘s death would be investigated again after twenty years.

The detective gathered all the information he could find and passed it on to Ethan, who then found the

man who had sold Elissa the poison.

Now that the evidence was stacked up against Elissa, Ethan sued her under two charges: murder and

attempted murder.

Afraid that things might go awry, he put the best lawyers of the Larson Group in charge of the case.

The indictment instantly became a sensation.

Two major cases, the poisoning of Janet and the death of Sylvia, was enough to draw in the attention

of the public.

It didn‘t take long before the news reached Patrick‘s ears.It wasn‘t the first time Elissa had humiliated

him.He felt both shocked and angry, but at the same time, he began to worry about the stock price of

Lester Silk Fabric.

Although Ethan was his bastard son, he still carried the Lester family name.He didn‘t think it was right

for Ethan to humiliate the whole family just because he hated Elissa.

Patrick was so angry that he personally went to Barnes to see Ethan on the day he found out about the

news.

"Ethan Lester! You really have the gall, don‘t you?" Patrick spat aggressively.

"Your wife killed my mother, and now, in trying to kill me, she almost killed my wife," Ethan said calmly.

"Let‘s settle the old and new grudges together.I‘m telling you—I won‘t give her the chance to get away

with her crimes."

Patrick‘s eyes went as wide as saucers.He knew about Sylvia‘s sudden death, but he didn‘t think too

much about it.

After all, Sylvia was just some woman he had a one night stand with.

Moreover, he needed Elissa and her family‘s support, so he had to turn a blind eye to the fact that

Elissa hated Sylvia to the core.Now that he thought about it, he found it highly possible that Elissa had

killed Sylvia.

And he also knew that Elissa wanted to kill Ethan, too.

After all, she had already tried once.Ethan had enough evidence to prove it.The man was no longer the

loser he used to be.He had the Larson Group, and Patrick couldn‘t do anything about it.

Seeing the hesitation in Patrick‘s eyes, Ethan sneered coldly.

"Since you have nothing else to say, get out.Now!"

Patrick clenched his fists and stormed off angrily.He had already warned that damned woman, but

Elissa didn‘t take him seriously at all.
