The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 548 His Chilling Methods (Part 2)

"Mrs. Jenkins Senior, you seem to be in rather fragile health," Ethan said with a pleasant smile, observing Yvette's reaction. His tone was still courteous, almost concerned.

"Mr. Marcus is really kind. He arranged for doctors to accompany us the entire way. There is no chance Mrs. Jenkins Senior will die before we arrive.

"After all, you vanished for years and didn't even show up for your own family's funerals. Mr. Holden Senior treated you with kindness and received nothing but betrayal in return. But now, justice is finally being served. Heaven wasn't blind. It was simply biding its time.

"Just last night, the entire Jenkins family cemetery was dug up by wild dogs. You know what that means, don't you? It means the Jenkins family has no good people left. All the evil you've done has finally been noticed by the heavens."

Ethan continued smiling. "Mrs. Jenkins Senior, perhaps your terminal illness is heaven's way of punishing you. And as for your dear little granddaughter. She's 18 now, isn't she? I heard she got into the university she wanted. Right before school starts..."

He let out a chuckle, slow and deliberate. "If heaven really has had enough, and something happens to Ms. Jenkins before she even makes it to college, her life will be over before it begins."

Yvette, supported by Charlene, was visibly growing anxious with each word. If she still failed to grasp what Ethan truly meant, then she had truly lived in vain.

"I want to see Marcus. I want to see Marcus. I must see him. Let me see him." Her voice cracked as she screamed, losing all control.

"Mrs. Jenkins Senior, have a little dignity. Isn't this what you wanted all along?" Ethan replied with a gentle smile.

"So why are you begging to see Mr. Marcus now? He's busy right now, hosting Mr. Holden Senior's funeral. He doesn't have time for someone like you. From here on out, I'll be the one looking after you and Ms. Jenkins."

Ethan clapped his hands. At once, the bodyguards forced Yvette and Charlene into the car.

"Drive. We're going to the Jenkins family cemetery."

He gave the order cheerfully, and the vehicle started, exiting through the back gate of Luminara Park.

"Mrs. Jenkins Senior, I assume you've visited the cemetery over the years, even if only in secret. Mr. Holden Senior chose that site with care. Peaceful surroundings, a serene view. He even brought in a landscape consultant. It was meant to be perfect."

Ethan lowered the window and glanced out at the passing landscape.
