Regret Came Too Late

The atmosphere beca little tense.

The other Henderson family members were hoping to interrogate him as well but were unsure if this incident

would have any impact on Ethan at all.

If they acted hastily and offended him, only to have things work out for him in the end, they would be the ones

getting the short end of the stick.

Dylan was the only one who spoke up.

"Grandpa, | haven't been able to visit because Uncle Ethan had placedunder house arrest. If you hadn't

insisted, Uncle Ethan's men would have never letleave."

Everyone present exchanged glances and began discussing among themselves.

"You shouldn't have done that, Ethan. No matter what he did, he's still your nephew. How could you treat him like

an outsider?"

"That's right. He's a younger relative of yours, after all. You should treat him better."

Dylan scoffed at their cowardice. At the end of the day, they were still afraid of offending Ethan.

Dylan suddenly rose from his seat and spoke out loud.

"On top of that, | suspect Uncle Ethan is connected to Levi's death!"

Once these words were out, silence filled the room instantly.

When Levi died, Jordan personally gave orders to investigate the cause of his death. However, they did not

manage to find anything in the end.

When Dylan returned to the country, he began to clash with Ethan as well, but he kept getting the short end of

the stick. He might have sevidence, considering how he was calling out Ethan and claiming that he was the

one behind Levi's death.

Jordan looked over at Dylan with eyes that finally showed sconcern. "Do you have any evidence?"

Dylan kneeled on the ground, all calm and self-assured.

"Isn't it enough proof from the way Uncle Ethan is trying to send Jodie away in such a hurry? Jodie has stuck by

him for so many years. She was never close to anyone else but him.

"Who's to say that she's never been part of his dirty deeds? If you want evidence, you could stop Jodie from

being sent away so that we can have her tell us personally about whether Uncle Ethan is the one who single-

handedly orchestrated Levi's death!"

These words carried significant weight.

Moreover, Dylan guessed it right-because Jodie did, in fact, know about Levi's

case.

Jordan turned his attention back to Ethan. It had been so many years and yet Ethan had never shown any other

emotions in front of the family.

His demeanor made it hard for Jordan to read him.

Jordan had weathered many storms, and yet the only thing that remained puzzling and mysterious to him was

Ethan.

Jordan's brows were knitted tightly. He lifted his hand to massage his temples. "Ethan, did you send Jodie

abroad?"

Ethan only hummed a response as he lifted his hand to brush his sleeves in a nonchalant manner. "I had to do it

for the sake of our family's reputation." Dylan laughed at this.

"What a noble justification, Uncle Ethan. Weren't you the one who publicized her identity? Why are you

pretending to be skind of saint now?"

"Who said | was the one who did it?"

Ethan lifted his gaze slightly as he looked at everyone in the room. "Do you have any proof?"

With this question, everyone could only look at each other.

That was right. None of them had any proof.

Dylan felt cornered. His face becflushed as he got up angrily and shouted, "You're the only one in this family

who knew about Jodie's origin! Who else could it be?"

"Andrew knew," Ethan answered.

These two words were short but impactful enough to make everyone turn their attention to Andrew.

Andrew was already suffocating

from the frustration. Hearing these words caused his face to becevent

more fled with anger, and:

yet, the moment his eyes met Ethan's, all of the anger in his body instantly evaporated.

belongs to s

In an imposing voice, Jordan asked, "Andrew, you knew?"

It had been close to 20 years since Jodie was brought home. Even if Ethan had mentioned it to him back then, it

was likely that he had already forgotten about it.

Andrew's face was now as red as a tomato. He wanted to say that Ethan was trying to frhim. But he began

racking his brain about what

Ethan had actually said to him back then He could not recall a single thing.

He had always been the most useless person in the family, so it was even harder

for him to say anything now.

It was practically pointless to put any hope on him.

Jordan's expression got even darker. With all the strength he mustered, he threw his cup onto the floor.

In a split second, Andrew fell to his knees, feeling incredibly wronged. "Dad, |

really can't remember anything."

"You worthless thing! What's the point of keeping you around?"

This was the first tJordan had gotten angry tonight.

Any astute person could tell that Andrew had no other choice but to take the

bleven if Ethan was making things up.

Even if there was no longer any hope.

for Andrew, he still had to think about Yancey. Yancey was still dependent on Ethan for his survival. If Andrew

were to cause any trouble, Yancey y would be dragged into the ditches with him. s

No matter how stupid he was, he should still know this much.
