Chapter 543 New Pawn


    "They confessed. It''s all in this video. How do you want to do this?" Ethan slid the sh drive in front


    of J.


    "I couldn''t care less about Jeff, but I know that my parents still care about L. I want to talk to them


    first." J was hesitant. She didn''t think it was a good idea to put L behind bars without


    consulting her parents first.


    Upon hearing this, Ethan''s expression darkened. He reached for J''s hand and said softly but


    firmly, "I respect that, but you shouldn''t be asking your parents for their opinion. You should just be


    informing them about what L has done. I''m not going to let her go this time, honey."


    Unlike J, Ethan wasn''t as indecisive.


    He sent the video directly to the Whites.


    When Johanna watched the video, she was furious. "I raised her for twenty years, but this is what I


    get in return? A criminal? How dare she do something like this?!"


    Even Beal gave up on his former daughterpletely. What she had done this time was simply too


    despicable for words.


    He rubbed his temples and sighed, "Do whatever you want with her. She has to be punished. She is


    no longer a member of the White family. Whatever she has done has nothing to do with us."


    After Jeff and L were brought to court, they were sentenced to jail.


    The Gillian family was poor, so they couldn''t hire a goodwyer for L and Jeff. And even if they


    did have the money, they had offended Brandon Larson. Nowyer in Barnes would be willing to


    take their case.


    As if that wasn''t bad enough, the Gillian family''s small grocery store was in shambles. A group of


    thugs kept showing up at the store and made a scene, which forced them to shut down the


    business.


    Glenn and Eva couldn''t get Jeff out of prison and had no means of livelihood in Barnes. Therefore,


    in despair and defeat, they left Barnes and returned to their vige.

    Unbeknownst to everyone, Charis had been living in Barnes this whole time. Even her parents


    thought that she was traveling abroad.


    She hadn''t made any movestely. After all, Ethan had almost found her out after the parachute


    incident. Luckily, she reacted quickly to get rid of L''s coach in time. Although the woman didn''t die


    in the end, she could never talk again as a vegetable.

    Now, she knew she had to lie low. But lying low didn''t mean she couldn''t keep a close eye on


    Ethan''s and J''s movements.


    What had unfolded recently was really interesting.


    It never urred to Charis that L would be expelled from the White family so soon. She had been


    the Whites'' daughter for over twenty years after all.


    What surprised her more was that very soon after L joined the Gillian family, she conspired


    against J with her brother.


    And now, Ethan had put the two siblings behind bars for good. Charis had no pawns left.


    She had never thought that L would be this stupid. If she had continued to work with her, she


    might''ve gotten her own ass in trouble, too.


    Jeff, on the other hand, had piqued Charis''s interest. He looked like a reckless fool who would do


    anything for money.


    Charis felt that she had found a new pawn. At first, she had had no hope for the Gillians, but now it


    seemed it was necessary for her to drop by Barnes'' Prison.
