Chapter 749 Ethan Goes to Negotiate with Steven

As soon as Steven got in the car and left, Richard turned to look at Silas. "Who is he?"

For a moment, Richard's brain went blank.

"Richard, that's Steven," Silas took a deep breath and spoke softly.

Richard's heart tightened. That was Betty's supposedly dead ex-husband, Steven, the head of the Hughes family.

Wasn't he supposed to be dead?

"Betty." Richard panicked and quickly turned to run into the living room.

He was afraid something had happened to Betty.

In the living room, Betty was sitting on the couch, lost in thought.

Seeing Richard return, Betty stood up in a panic, nervously looking at Richard. "Are you okay?"

"Steven?" Richard frowned and asked.

Betty rubbed her temples. "How would I know he faked his death?"

Richard's face turned grim, and his fingers tightened around Betty's wrist. "he faked his death?"

Betty sighed. "It's a long story."

Pacing back and forth, Betty bit her lip. "Richard, let's get a divorce first."

Richard frowned. "Why? I don't agree."

Betty was used to being strong-willed, and Richard could understand that, but he couldn't accept her wanting a divorce without any explanation.
