Love's Tangled Web by Donna Taylor

Chapter 499

That night in Ellie’s hospital room, Aaron lay on the bed, aware of the sound of the door lock clicking. In the dark, lit only by a faint light peeking through the curtains, he instantly recognized Ethan as the intruder.

As Ethan approached the bed and flicked open a knife in his hand, Aaron reacted quickly, launching a kick. The knife fell from Ethan’s grip. With the lights now on, Ethan finally realized who was confronting him.

“It’s you?” His eyes widened in shock. Realizing he’d been outsmarted, Ethan grabbed the knife from the floor and tried to run. But Aaron quickly subdued him in moments.

Just as Aaron had secured Ethan against the bed, one hand holding him down while the other dialed the police, a nurse entered for her rounds. She screamed when she saw the two men.

In that split second, Ethan broke free, using the nurse to shield himself as he rushed out of the room. “Mr. Thompson, get ready to collect your sister’s corpse.”

At the entrance of the ward, Ethan, with a menacing sneer, taunted Aaron before escaping through the window using a pre- prepared rope.

“Stop!” Barry, who was hiding, instinctively chased after Ethan. Surrounded by the Warren family’s bodyguards and the police, Ethan rushed onto the road.

Alex slammed his foot on the gas pedal, and with a loud bang, Ethan was thrown into the air. With a heavy crash, Ethan landed in the bushes beside the road, where police swiftly arrested him.

Alex got out of his car, finally at ease once he saw Ethan being led away in handcuffs. “Thank you.” Aaron nodded at Alex before getting into the car and leaving. With Ethan caught, everyone let out a collective sigh of relief.
