Chapter 102 Maybe Your Brother-in-law
Ethan knew that the information he got couldn’t be wrong. Kristen must have gotten in one of Oliver’s cars, but if she wasn’t in this place, where could she be?
“I am Ethan from Nangania. Since the person I am looking for is not here, I’m sorry to disturb you.”
After saying that, Ethan turned around and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, at this time, another person standing next to Yobhel said, “Wait a minute.”
Ethan stopped in his tracks. He recognized Jorden at first glance. They had met at a business gathering before.
“Mr. Oliver.”
Jorden had a deep impression of Ethan. After all, he was a big shot in Nangania. He didn’t expect his sister to know such a man.
“Mr. Wharton, are you looking for Kristen Healey?”
Hearing this, Ethan quickly walked up to Jorden and asked, “Have you seen her before?”
“Yes. She seemed to be in trouble. Someone was chasing her. I happened to pass by and saw her, so I let her get in my car.”
Ethan grew anxious, “Where is she now?”
Jorden looked quite calm and he said casually, “I took her for a while, and then she got out of the car.”
Ethan promptly asked, “Can you tell me where she got off the car? If Mr. Oliver can tell me today, I will reward you in the future.”
Jorden’s eyes glinted meaningfully.
“Not far from here. At the intersection of Bright Light Avenue. It’s been a while. You can go there and try your luck. Maybe you’ll be able to find her.”
“Many thanks.” Ethan turned and hurried away.
Then, his car sped away.
Yobhel was confused. “Jorden, why did you lie to him?”
Jorden shrugged, “Do you think I’m willing to lie? Kristen asked me to do it. ”
Yobhel was even more confused.
“Kristen? What did she do?”
Jorden glanced at Yobhel grumpily, he thought to himself “If he can’t tell what I’m talking about, he deserves to be single.”
“You should remember the person. He is very likely to be your future brother-in-law.”
This time, it was Yobhel’s turn to be stunned.
“Jorden, what did you say?”
Jorden didn’t want to explain and walked away.
Yobhel hurriedly caught up with Jorden, “Jorden, what is going on? Tell me.”
“No, I promised Kristen to keep it a secret.”
“Jorden. We are family.”
“I said no…”
“……”
Ethan rushed to Bright Light Avenue according to the address given by Jorden, but Kristen was not there.
“Kristen, where are you?”
Ethan ran out of the car, shouting around.
However, except for the passing cars, no one paid attention to him at all.
Ethan trotted along the road, searching for Kristen as he ran. He paced back and forth twice but found no trace of her. Frustrated, he sat on the ground and looked up at the sky.
“Kristen, where are you?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a familiar voice, “Ethan, I’m here!”
Ethan’s eyes lit up instantly. He got up quickly and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw Kristen standing in front of him unharmed.
Ethan rushed over and took Kristen into his arms.
He seemed to have found a lost treasure.
“Kristen, where have you been? Are you all right?”
Kristen hugged him, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Fortunately, Steve had brought her to Tornzia. This was her hometown.
That was why she was able to escape the calamity.
“Great.”
Ethan was very pleased and then slowly let go of her.
“Who took you away? How did you get out of that?”
Speaking of this, darkness gathered in Kristen’s eyes, “I think Steve must have no choice but to come up with such a bad idea. But don’t worry, he will be punished by the law in the end.”
Ethan was surprised.
“You mean this matter has been resolved?”
Kristen nodded, “It’s okay. Leave him to the police. We won’t interfere. He will pay for what he has done.”
Ethan, however, detected a different meaning from Kristen’s words.
He had many doubts in his heart, but when he saw that Kristen was safe and sound, he did not ask anymore.
“Tornzia is not a good place to stay. Let’s go back.”
Kristen nodded, “Okay, let’s go back.”
So, the two of them returned to Nangania.
As soon as she got off the plane, Kristen was exhausted. She fell asleep as soon as she lay on the bed, but Ethan was not sleepy at all.
The study room was filled with a thick smell of tobacco. Ethan stood in front of the French windows, looking at the night view outside. He was lost in thought, and the surroundings were deathly silent except for his breathing.
In this quiet space, a cell phone rang. Ethan looked away and answered the phone.
“How is it? Have you found anything?”
A voice came from the other side of the phone, saying, “The other party acted quickly. Steve has been taken under control by the police, and all the evidence is present. This time, Steve will be sentenced to at least ten years of imprisonment. In addition, because of this matter, the police found a chain of women trafficking. They arrested many people and rescued many trapped women.”
Ethan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Did you find out who did it?”
There was a moment of silence over the phone, “Mr. Wharton, sorry. We can’t find any clues about the person at all.”
Ethan stubbed the cigarette in his hand out, looking displeased.
He said, “If you can’t find out anything, just stop here for the time being. Since Steve is in prison, you should find some people and ask them to “take care of” him there.”Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes, Mr. Wharton.”
Hanging up on the phone, there were a lot of emotions hidden under Ethan’s eyes.
For the first time, he doubted Kristen’s identity. Although he had investigated Kristen’s background and found nothing, this matter had been handled so cleanly that no one could find any loopholes, which was very strange.
“Kristen, who the hell are you?”
“What kind of force is behind you?”
Ethan picked up his phone again. This time, he called one of his subordinates with whom he hadn’t been in touch for a long time, “I heard that you have plenty of contacts in Tornzia. Can you help me find someone? Kristen, can you look into this woman for me?”
The man hesitated for a moment before asking, “Mr. Wharton, are you referring to the superstar Kristen?”
“Mm, “said Ethan, “Is there a problem?”
“There’s nothing special about Kristen. No need for investigation.” The other party was a little afraid. Ethan had been in the business world for so many years, how could he not hear it? So, he simply asked, “Can’t you do that?”
