Chapter 570: Ethan is Jealous

"Ethan, when am I getting my Cullinan?" Tom nagged.

Ethan shot him a look. "When Howard kicks the bucket. Better start praying, man. Pray hard."

Tom scowled. "You think my prayers are gonna off him?"

"Hey, your prayers have been on point since we were kids," Ethan said, dead serious.

Jasmine, nearby, burst out laughing.

Tom glared at her.

Ethan pulled her close. "Who you glaring at? Wanna lose those eyes?"

Tom backed off, trailing behind them. "Sorry."

Liam, off to the side, tried to hold in his laughter, his shoulders shaking.

Tom, unable to snap at Jasmine, turned on Liam. "What's so funny? Never seen a good- looking guy before?"

"Nope," Liam said, nodding seriously.

Tom balled his fists. Ever since they were kids, when he couldn't win an argument with Liam, he'd go for a fight.

Liam took a deep breath. "Tom just trashed Mr. Cunningham, said he looks like a stick and..."

Before Liam could finish, Tom, looking horrified, clamped a hand over Liam's mouth and glanced at Ethan in panic. "It's nothing. Forget it."

Ethan glared at Tom and got in the car with Jasmine.

"I heard Howard's making some crazy demands?" Jasmine asked, worried, once they were in the car.

Ethan just smiled and drove off.

Outside, Jasmine glanced back but couldn't see Tom and Liam anymore. The two were wrestling on the lawn, not really fighting.

In the car, Ethan noticed in the rearview mirror that someone was tailing them.

That car had been on their tail since they arrived, following them everywhere.
