Wed to the Billionaire Brother of My Spouse by Doris

Chapter 574

Chapter 575: Trick Howard

Jasmine shot Ethan a look of pure shock. "They ratted out Claire that fast?"

"But you know Claire's legally Casey's grandpa, so she can just whip up some excuse to dodge any real trouble," Ethan said, his voice low and serious. "We'll keep this on her record for now. When the time's right, she won't get away with it."

"What went down today? Joe and Justin hopped into a car with some rando?" Cordelia rushed back in, looking frazzled.

She'd been cool with Justin and Joe hanging with Lisa 'cause her bodyguards were always tailing them from a distance.

"Justin and Joe slipped the bodyguards some cash to keep their distance, so it's not on them," Ethan quickly clarified.

Jasmine finally got it: these kids had some serious guts!

Back home, Claire got a call from the hospital. Daniel had been in a car wreck, busted a rib, and messed up his neck. He'd probably be stuck in bed for a while.

Fuming, she stormed to the hospital but saw two sets of cops-detectives tipped off by the kidnappers and police called by Lisa with the phone she tricked from the nanny. Shaking with rage, Claire glared at Lisa.

"You're out of your mind!"

Lisa shoved the nanny aside. "Mom, you're the one who's lost it."

Grabbing her phone from the table, Lisa frantically called Ethan to make sure the kids were safe.

Ethan assured her they were fine, and she finally exhaled in relief.

"Lisa, I should've never had you. You're actually siding with them," Claire spat as she was being hauled into the police car.
