Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

“Why are you still standing there?” Yvette said to John.

John mechanically nodded, giving a sympathetic glance at Ethan, whose wrist was twisted, and then looking at the casual, indifferent Yvette. He wondered. ‘She’s so ruthless. How strong is she to break someone’s bones like that?‘

He also made a mental note, I have to avoid infuriating Yvette in the future. My small arms and legs can’t take it. I’ll be more tactful when asking her to finish her homework! John then hurried to catch up and replied, “I’m coming, I’m coming! Wait for me, my goddess!”

Neither of them paid any attention to Ethan, who was groaning on the floor. Ethan took out his cell phone and called Lucas to pick him up and handle his school withdrawal.

When Ethan got back, he angrily told his granddad what had happened. Only after his granddad repeatedly promised to take revenge for him did Ethan agree to leave the next day to recuperate and study abroad.

Ethan’s granddad was no fool. Daniel’s arrest at that time meant that he had offended someone important. How else could a deputy mayor have fallen from grace so easily? Many people had been investigated in just one day. That was not something an ordinary person could do.

He had gone to ask around and found out that Daniel had been taken to the police station, possibly because of a young girl. However, the girl had walked out of the station unharmed while Daniel had been interrogated. As a veteran, Ethan’s granddad was quick to understand the situation. When he had found out that Ethan had been the cause, he had lost all hope in him.

The girl’s identity or the people supporting her weren’t something his small family could afford to challenge. He would not risk that for a worthless grandson. Over the years, he had seen the father and son’s wrongdoings firsthand. No matter how many times he had tried to put a stop to it, nothing had changed. So, he finally gave up.

Years ago, when Daniel married his daughter, it hadn’t taken long for him to start having affairs, which ultimately led to his h daughter’s tragic death.

The Brooks family was negatively influencing Ethan. The problem was deep–rooted, but since Ethan was the child of his only daughter, he couldn’t just sit by and do nothing. So he sent him abroad, hoping to reform him. He wouldn’t mind leaving him an inheritance for support if he turned out well. However, he would let Ethan follow Daniel’s path if he remained stubborn and hopeless.

Ethan was unaware of the situation and thought he was going abroad to live a lavish lifestyle as before. Only later did he learn that his granddad had placed him in a strict boarding school, where he was left to his own devices, except for some pocket money that was sent periodically.
