Chapter 281 Making A Friend
Two days ago, in the Larson Group.
"Ethan, have you heard thetest news about the Turner family?" Garrett asked with a knowing
smile. Without waiting for a response, he added, "Some woman got pregnant for Luke."
''Tsk, tsk, tsk. Women never learn! I wonder why anyone in her right mind would dare to get
pregnant for Luke. Several years ago, one of his numerous mistresses took in. It was a big scandal.
In the end, the mistress died with the baby in her womb. Their death was just too sudden and
mysterious. Otherdies should have learned a good lesson from that urrence. But now, another
reckless mistress is pregnant!'' he thought disappointedly.
Just like before, everyone in the circle knew about Luke''s new pregnant mistress. It was big news
because no woman had dared to take in for him since that ugly incident. Ethan had heard it too.
"She''s just another bimbo," Ethan said calmly. Scanning through the file on the table, he added
seriously, "I need you to investigate something urgently. A car ident urred a few days ago.
ording to the police report, the driver was drunk and several men lost their lives. But I don''t
believe that. Something smells fishy. I think someone orchestrated the ident to murder them. I
want to know the whole story." "Okay, always a pleasure." Garrett sighed and got up from the sofa.
Now that Jocelyn was no longer Luke''s mistress, Ethan felt that he could deal with her anyhow he
wanted. He was ready to break her finally.
It took Garrett only a few hours to find out the ins and outs of the car ident. It turned out that the
men in the car were the perverts who had gang-raped Jocelyn. Fiona and Jocelyn had bribed an
automobile technician to tamper with the car''s brakes. As a result, they had a car ident.
"Gosh! Why does this have to do with Jocelyn again?" Garrett frowned and added, "Those two
wicked women murdered many people. If the police finds out about this, they will be sentenced to
dozens of years in jail. Anyway, serves them right!"
Ethan smiled without uttering a word. His instincts were right. This evidence was enough to get rid
of those two women forever. It was as if a great weight had been raised off his shoulders.

The day J was to be discharged from the hospital was sunny and cloudless.
During her three-day stay in the hospital, she rested and recuperated well.
Ethan was busy packing up her belongings when he noticed that she had been looking outside the
ward for a long time.
"What are you looking at?" He zipped up the suitcase and grabbed its handle with one hand.
Afterward, he reached out to hold J''s hand with the other.
"Ermm. I have been thinking of Laney. I just want to see her. She saved my life. I need to thank her
properly before leaving. Didn''t you say she was admitted here too ? Which ward is she in?" J
craned her neck and looked at each side of the corridor.
Ethan''s face softened a little. He initially nned to help Laney leave the hospital as soon as she
recovered, but he changed his mind on second thought. He reasoned that it was better to keep her
close. Not only was Laney a good bodyguard, but J also seemed to like her. He felt that both
women would be friends, so Laney could keep on protecting J in the future without
arousing her suspicions. That seemed like a better n.
"Okay. Since you insist, I will take you there now." Ethan held his wife''s waist and steered her
towards a ward to the right.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
On the way, J suddenly stopped and looked very hesitant. She pursed her lips and said
cautiously, "Laney is a little aloof. I don''t know what to say to express my gratitude. What if she
doesn''t want to see me? I''m not sure I want to do this anymore."
J was somewhat scared of Laney. She had sensed her aloofness from the very first time they
spoke to each other at the sand bar.
When Ethan saw the shy expression on his wife''s face, he couldn''t help feeling a little jealous. He
held her hand, interlocking their fingers. As he continued leading her, he uttered with a smile, "Don''t
worry. She will be happy to see you. If she behaves otherwise, I will give her a piece of my mind.
Trust me!"
Hardly had J chuckled and attempted to speak when Ethan pulled her into the ward.
They met Laney packing up her clothes into a bag. She looked up at them and asked quickly,
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
