Chapter 135 You're Really Heartless

Brenna stared at the screen, waiting for Ellie's response. When the message finally came, it was brief but loaded

with emotion.

"Not now. I don't want to see him. If my son didn't keep asking about his father, I would've erased him from my memory completely."

Staring at those lines on the screen, Brenna fell into deep thought, pondering how she could help her friend through this tough time.

So absorbed was she in her reflection that she didn't notice Ethan's shadow creeping closer, his eyes darting to

her screen with calculated intent.

Seizing the opportunity, Ethan discreetly captured a photo of Brenna's phone screen and forwarded it to Jayceon, his fingers moving with barely contained excitement.

The revelation was staggering-Ellie had had a child with Jayceon. From the conversation, he estimated the boy

to be about five.

But something didn't sit right. Jayceon had been desperately searching for Ellie for seven years, which meant

the boy should be at least six.

Ethan's phone immediately erupted with Jayceon's frantic responses. "Who are you with?"

"Whose phone is this?"

"Is this message from Ellie?"

"Tell me, please. Why aren't you answering?"

"Ethan, I'm begging you. Please help me find out if it's from her."

"Get me Ellie's contact, and I'm in your debt forever."

"Do I have a son? Can you help me find out where Ellie is and what's going on?" "Why are you ignoring me?"
