    Chapter 457


    Julian shook his head. Just as he turned around, a voice came from behind. “Son!”


    Julian was surprised. He turned around and saw his mother, Ruth,ing over. He could not help


    but frown. “Why are you here? Aren’t you at Valerie’s? Why are you here? Did you make Valerie


    angry again?”


    Ruth hurriedly pounced over. “You rascal, what are you talking about? I want to move in with you!”


    She could not live in Slotmond Estate anymore. Otherwise, she felt that she would die if Matthew


    found out.


    Julian was shocked when he heard what she said. He quickly held her hand and said, “Do Valerie


    know that you want to move in with me? Did you do something to Valerie? I told you not to find


    trouble with Valerie. Why didn’t you listen?”


    Ruth rolled her eyes. “You’re my son. What’s wrong with me staying with you?”


    Julian said, “Valerie rented a basement for you, and now you’re moving in with me, you have to


    inform her. Otherwise, she won’t know where you’ve gone! Or did you quarrel with Valerie again?


    Did you make her angry?”


    Ruth did not dare to answer. She could not say that she had offended Matthew.


    Julian kept asking. Ruth just went into his fruit shop and sat down to help him clean up and wipe the


    fruits.

    Julian felt that it was a little strange. His mother was really too bad–tempered. He did not know what


    had happened between Ruth and Valeric. However, Valerie was in a good mood when she came


    over this morning. He did not know what Ruth was up to, so he decided to let her be.


    After a few minutes, seeing that Julian did not ask further, Ruth heaved a sigh of relief and asked


    him instead, “I saw it just now. Who is that Katherine? That girl is quite pretty. What’s your


    rtionship with her? She helped you send Aiden to school, and you gave her such expensive


    fruits?”


    She thought, ‘Good lord, that fruit cost at least 60 dors. Julian is really generous‘ Ruth pursed her


    lips.


    Julian rolled his eyes at her. “What does it have to do with you? Don’t tell me you want to get close


    to her. If you want to live here, shut up. Don’t interfere in my business!”


    Ruth said embarrassedly, “So be it. What’s the big deal?”


    She looked around and took all the paper shells in the shop to the back door. Just as she walked


    out of the back door, someone covered her mouth and pulled her to the side.


    Ruth was scared out of her wits. Her entire body was trembling. She wondered if Matthew’s


    subordinate had followed her there.


    She turned around and saw that it was Ethan.


    Ethan said, “Don’t scream when I let go, or I won’t be polite to you!”


    She couldn’t dare to scream. Ethan had already used a knife on her. She worried that he would stab


    her.


    Ruth nodded repeatedly. Only then did Ethan let go. Ruth heaved a sigh of relief and asked, “Where


    did you gost night? Those people were so fierce. They were looking for you everywhere. Do you


    want to die? Why did youe here?”


    Ethan panted and said, “I hid in the cattle farm in the mountainsst night. It’s not that easy for them


    to find me! You idiot, how dare you stille here! What if they catch you? What are you gonna


    do?”


    Ruth did not think much of it. “How is that possible? No one knows that I am here.”

    Ethan said, “You’re so stupid Julian’s shop is facing the road. There are cameras, do you


    understand?”


    Ruth was unconvinced. “Then why are you here?”

    Ethan looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. Then, he whispered, “If Matthew


    investigates Valerie, with his ability, the secret of the past will definitely be exposed. It’s only a


    matter of time!”


    “Then what should we do!” Ruth was anxious. If the secret was exposed, they would be finished.


    A sharp glint shed across Ethan’s eyes. “We can’t let him continue investigating! We have to think


    of a way to stop him. I’m here to look for you. Don’t give yourself away!”


    Ruth was terrified and did not know what to do. “Do you think Matthew can really find the truth?


    Besides, it’s already been so many years. He doesn’t have any evidence. Even if he knows that


    Valerie isn’t our biological daughter, so what? What can he do to us?


    Hearing this, Ethan took a deep breath. “Just in case! Don’t forget what we left behind back then!”


    When he said that, Ruth immediately trembled in fear.


    The two of them looked at each other. Ethan took a deep breath. He had to stop Matthew. If their


    secret was exposed, with Matthew’s current status, he would die.


    At this moment, Matthew had already sent people to track Ethan down. The bodyguards searched


    for Ethan all night bur could not find him. They had almost searched through the entire mountain.


    A bodyguard said, “This old thing must have grown wings and flown away!”


    Another bodyguard said, “Even if he has wings, there are so many of us searching in the


    mountains. After such a long time, we should have found clues!”


    The first bodyguard said, “I doubt it. Let’s continue…”


    That bodyguard suddenly slipped and fell.


    The road on this mountain was already difficult to walk on. There was nothing left under his feet as


    he slid down. There was


    a tree in front of him. He used his foot as a brake and stepped on the tree to stop his fall.


    However, there seemed to be something under his feet, which immediately piqued his curiosity.


    The man on the hill hurried down. “How are you? Are you all right?”


    He waved his hand. “I’m fine! Come and take a look. There seems to be something here.”


    Everyone pried it open at the same time. When they saw a package buried under the dirt, they felt


    even more incredulous.
