Chapter 580: Howard Has Another Illegitimate Child
When Ethan and Brandon walked in, they saw Claire sprawled on the floor, twisted up with blood on her forehead. They exchanged a look but kept quiet.
Seeing Claire had taken a nasty fall, Brandon finally rushed over. "Mrs. Douglas, what happened?"
Claire couldn't speak for a bit, not sure what nerve she hit. After a while, she snapped out of it and gritted her teeth. "I need to call the cops!"
"Did you fall and suddenly grow a conscience? Calling the cops on yourself?" Ethan looked shocked. "Is that even possible?"
Joe peeked out from behind Ethan, staring seriously at the air above Claire. "Be careful with her head; she hit it pretty hard."
Claire's face went pale, and she pointed a shaky finger at Joe. "You little brat, stop talking nonsense! What are you babbling about?"
Joe looked at Ethan. "Dad, why are those two people pulling her head? They said she did a lot of bad stuff and she's going to hell."
Ethan rubbed his forehead. Was Joe learning this from Edgar?
"What people? I don't see anyone," Brandon asked, trying not to laugh.
Justin also pointed behind Claire. "Can't you see them?"
Claire was almost too scared to talk, wishing she could eat the two kids alive.
"People who do bad things often get what's coming to them," Ethan said in a serious tone.
Claire turned white with fear and glanced at Brandon. "Mr. Russell, I don't feel well. I gotta go, we can talk tomorrow."
She scrambled up, holding onto the door frame, and bolted out.
As soon as Claire left, Brandon couldn't help but burst out laughing, clutching his stomach.
"Uncle Brandon, stop laughing. Those two people are looking back at you," Joe said creepily.
