In the Lester family’s home in Seacisco.
Elissa had just smoked two packs of cigarettes and the whole room was filled with smoke.
When Ritchie walked into the room, he felt choked by all that smoke.
“Mom, it’s dinner time.” He lifted his hand and fanned the smoke away from his face. After that, he
could make out that Elissa was sitting on the edge of the bed, smoking yet another cigarette.
“What does the news say? What’s your father’s attitude like?” Elissa’s fingers shook and her face was
in the shadows, so there was no way to see the expression on her face.
Ritchie scratched the back of his head and then said, “Several families of those hurt have taken
banners to protest under our office building. Dad is still at the company currently. It’s most likely that he
has snapped because of this.”
After hearing that, Elissa’s hand suddenly trembled and the ash tumbled to the floor.
“Did he say anything at all?” All of a sudden, she opened her eyes wide and turned to look at Ritchie in
panic.
Ritchie’s face darkened visibly. He lowered the volume of his voice and asked, “Mom, were you behind
this?”
Even though he had his doubts, he hadn’t been able to confirm them yet.
Elissa swallowed nervously. She was very anxious now and was willing to tell Ritchie the truth.
“I was the one behind it. I even used our men. I thought we would succeed in getting rid of Ethan this
time. As long as he’s dead, even if the authorities wanted to investigate this matter, with the Lester
family’s connections, we could sort things out and shift the blame to the constructors. We could arrange
it so that it looks like an accident,”

Elissa said as cold sweat poured from her forehead.
She had been keeping a close eye on this matter the whole time and knew that investigation had just
begun.
Ritchie became anxious almost at once. He clenched his teeth tightly and said, “Mom, do you have any
idea how serious this matter is getting? I get it you want to get rid of Ethan, and so do I. But the truth is
Ethan didn’t die and he’s now even helping the police with the investigation! The government and the
public have attached great importance to this matter and they won’t stop any time soon. These days,
those hurt in the incident keep showing up at our company, protesting. This means they know that the
Lester family has something to do with the accident! This happens to be no small matter. I heard that a
total of more than a dozen audience members and staff was injured or even died in the accident!”
Ritchie said, “If this happened in Seacisco, we could probably do something about this and get away
with it. But no, this happened in Barnes! Mom, what in the world were you thinking?”
The Lester family had a lot of power in Seacisco, but not in Barnes.
Now that Ethan had reported the Lester family to the police, the police thought they were persons of
interest now.
In a panic, Elissa made her way out of her room and went down the stairs anxiously. Seeing that there
was no one downstairs, she shook from head to toe with fear again. “Why isn’t your father back yet?”
Ritchie followed her downstairs and answered, “Dad should still be at the company. This matter has
kept him busy for the past few days.”
During the entire dinner, Elissa was feeling listless.
Just as she was feeling tortured by news updates, the sound of a car engine came from outside.
A few minutes later, Patrick walked in with his suit jacket in his hands, looking clearly exhausted.
Elissa made her way up to him uneasily and wanted to take the suit jacket from him. “Patrick, why are
you back so late?”
Patrick angrily glanced at Elissa and suddenly it looked like he had snapped. He threw the suit jacket at
her face and said, “Bitch! Were you the one who sent people to kill Ethan?”
