Chapter 686

Janice and Olivia maintained a low profile. It was a stark contrast to the image given off by Jessica andDarrell. Jessica was a little nervous at first.

While no one was around, she asked Darrell, “Darrell, what did you do to convince Mr. Harold?”

No one knew better than Jessica the stubbornness of that old man. He wouldn’t give in to anything, andhe was a monster who would even part with his biological son.

But Darrell had only spoken a few words to Harold. How did he do it?

“I have my ways, Mom. Anyway, just relax and enjoy your position as Mrs. Miller. From today

onward, you’re the owner of this huge villa.”

With Darrell’s guarantee, Jessica grew much bolder.

To verify Darrell’s words, she gave Edmund orders on purpose. After all, Edmund represented

Harold’s intentions.

Even Edmund respectfully carried out her orders. Now, Jessica could rest assured and have her

way here.

She had completely made herself the lady of the house. She would get anything she asked for.

In contrast, Janice, who used to keep arguing with her over a single ring, seemed to avoid her

completely. No matter what Jessica did, Janice never once showed up.

Even though they were both living in the villa, the villa was simply too huge. If Janice wanted to

avoid Jessica, it would be quite difficult for them to meet each other.

Seeing that Janice had given in, Jessica was even bolder with her actions.novelbin

Kenneth, who used to always side with her, felt a little upset. Before this, he saw Jessica as a

gentle and understanding woman. But now, he felt as if Jessica was the aggressive woman here.

He didn’t know about the deal between Harold and Darrell either. When he asked Darrell about it,

Darrell only smiled and told him to stay put in the Miller residence.

Darrell said that he would take care of everything else.

Harold’s birthday banquet was just around the corner. Olivia was supposed to be the one preparing

The two were eager to prove their identities to the world. Even before the banquet, everyone had

already heard about the change in the Miller family.

Someone also spread rumors that Ethan had died. As a result, the entire upper-class society was

thrown into chaos.

Kenneth only heard of it the night before the banquet. He went to Darrell in a rage. “What exactly

happened to Ethan? What did you say to Harold?”

“Why are you being so mad, Dad? You hate that woman and her son, don’t you? Why would you be

concerned about him?”

Kenneth was even more convinced that this had something to do with him. “He was your brother!

Were you the one who did it?”

“Dad, what are you saying? You’re the one who disowned him, right? If you don’t acknowledge him

as your son, why would he be my brother? Moreover, if he’s dead, it’ll benefit us even more.

“After he dies, the Miller family will be ours. Hasn’t this always been your wish? I helped you

return to the Miller family. You should be thanking me instead.”

Kenneth slapped Darrell with all his might.

In the past, he only felt that Darrell was too stubborn. He didn’t expect Darrell to be so vicious.

“What exactly did you do? Is Ethan alive or not?”

“His current situation doesn’t concern you anymore, Dad. At the banquet tomorrow, Grandpa will

announce that I’m his biological grandson.

“I will be the one inheriting the Miller family in the future, and I’ll be the only son you’ve ever had!”

It was late at night.

On a balcony of an apartment in the city, a slender figure entered through the window.

When the man heard the sounds, he had already jumped out of bed. He skilfully retrieved a

weapon from under his pillow.

But the intruder moved even faster than him, and the cold weapon was held against his head. ”

Don’t move.”

The man looked up. When he saw Ethan’s eyes, a look of shock flashed across his own. “It’s you!”
