Chapter 549


    “Uh! Ah! Ethan—! Let go of me!” Charis tried to scream but it got stuck in her throat. Her face turned


    purple from theck of oxygen. She struggled and kicked, crying “Dad! Help me! Dad?!”


    Ethan was by no means a weak man. He could’ve snapped Charis’s neck without breaking a sweat.


    Frightened out of his wits, Luke stood up immediately to protect his daughter. “Mr. Larson, calm down!


    Let’s talk about this!”


    He tried his best to pull Ethan’s arm away but in vain.


    Catherine happened toe downstairs at this time. When she saw this scene, she was so frightened


    that she screamed.


    Her usual elegant and easy-going manner vanished instantly. She rushed to help her daughter and


    shouted, “Brandon, do you know what you’re doing?! You are not allowed to hurt my daughter in her


    own home!”


    Ethan’s eyes shed dangerously. He tightened his grip around Charis’s neck, which cut off Charis’s


    ess to oxygenpletely.


    Just when she thought she was going to die, Ethan suddenly threw her to the ground and let her go.


    “Ahem!” Writhing on the ground, Charis covered her neck with her hands and coughed violently.


    Regardless of her image, Catherine squatted on the ground and patted her daughter on the back


    anxiously. She red at Ethan and roared, “Who do you think you are? Why’d you do that to Charis?”


    Ethan removed the cuff links on his suit, rolled up his sleeves, and looked down at the two Turner


    women with a sneer. “Your daughter has tried to kill my wife on more than one asion. I thought I


    went too easy on her just now.”


    Catherine nced at Luke in shock. “What are you talking about? How could my daughter do such a


    thing?”


    Catherine had her own career and didn’t bother too much about her daughter’s. She never had to


    worry about the capable Charis. All she knew was that Charis had left the Larson Group a while ago.


    She had thought that this was a good thing, because now Charis could take over the family business.


    Both Catherine and Luke knew that Charis liked Brandon, but they didn’t know what she had done in


    order to get him.


    “Brandon, I’m warning you. Although Charis worked under you before, she doesn’t have to listen to you


    anymore. I can understand that there might be some problems between you two, but that doesn’t mean


    you can hurt my daughter!”


    Ethan sneered. He gathered the evidence on the table and looked down at the coughing Charis, “Since


    you’re the daughter of the Turner family, I can’t hurt you in your own house. However, if you dare try to


    hurt my wife again, I will not let you go.”


    Charis’s face was full of resentment. She gritted her teeth and red at Ethan defiantly. “I didn’t do


    anything wrong. You can’t me me for being a bit hot-headed!”


    “Are you sure?” Ethan raised his eyebrows and asked in a bone-chillingly cold voice.


    Looking into his eyes, Charis paused for a few seconds and suddenly burst into tears. “We’ve worked


    together for years, Ethan! Why don’t you have feelings for me? You fell in love with someone who


    came after me! Do you really think I’m not as good as her?”N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
