Chapter 220: Ethan's Public Relationship Announcement on Weibo

"You should go back first," Ethan said, raising his hand to his forehead.

Lawyer struggled to speak but after a long silence, Wilson decided to speak up. "Mr. Douglas, you've endured for over ten years, a few more days won't make a difference." Ethan remained silent.

Over ten years.

Since he was a child, some seeds had quietly taken root and sprouted.

"Ethan, remember, Mom would never commit suicide, never."

"Ethan...Mom has you, she would never harm her own life, you have to remember that. If one day something happens to Mom, it definitely won't be suicide..."

Ethan could never forget that year when he was only eight years old, when Howard got drunk and physically abused his mother, leaving their home in a mess.

On that stormy night, Ethan stood behind the door, watching Howard strike his mother with a golf club, blow after blow.

The door was locked from the outside, no matter how much he cried and shouted, he couldn't open it.

His fingers trembled, and Ethan held his forehead, veins bulging on the back of his hand.

The shadows of childhood can truly accompany one's whole life.

"Ethan..."

On the second floor, Jasmine came out barefoot, her eyes bloodshot.

She cried and called Ethan's name, it was Ethan, not Mr. Douglas.

Ethan's thoughts were brought back to reality, his heart suddenly tightened. Looking up at Jasmine standing upstairs, Ethan got up and quickly went up. "Nightmare?"

"I dreamed that you died..."

Jasmine was still crying, crying intensely.

For Jasmine, the most terrifying nightmare was not Ethan rejecting her, but Ethan dying.

Because of her, he was killed.

Ethan laughed and pulled Jasmine into his arms to comfort her. "Have you been watching too many suspense movies?"

"I'm scared. The Browns will be pushed to the edge..." Jasmine was restless and uneasy.

She knew Harper was not a foolish person, unlike Zelda and Aria Harper, those foolish

women.
