Ethan woke up and found himself in a room. The housekeeper hurried to him. "He's awake; please get the doctor." The housekeeper said, "There's a doctor here? Why did you bring a doctor to the underground house?" Ethan asked, getting to his feet, He suddenly felt stronger than he had ever felt. "You had a great fall, sir. We found you on the fall, and you still need to rest, please." The butler muttered worriedly. "Send the doctor back, and don't make any mistake like this again. When I get home, I'll have a doctor come over to check if I'm fine." He informed, making his way back to his father's study room. The box was still on the table, just how he left it, but looking deeper, he saw that there was an opening and a note beneath the opening. "There's no turning back now," he read. He closed the box and wore his watch back; Ethan didn't forget to take the ring as well with him. He left for his car and even almost got involved in an accident. Ring! Ring! Ethan's phone suddenly
Chapter 205
At Ethan's Estate,After Ethan dropped Cersei and the child at home, he drove straight to the underground house that the helicopter landed at when he brought Elia home.He had been waiting for time to pass and for things to settle down before anything."Now should be the right time," he thought, knowing he had waited for a year now."Good day, sir. I didn't know you'd be coming today." The housekeeper said it, but it didn't matter.He went into his father's study. After reading books that he got from Elia, he believed he had grown wiser over the years.He placed the Mar-relic on the desk, his mother's ring, and his watch."How is this used?" He wondered because even his father didn't put them together, nor did he write how to.According to what he read in one of his journals, "This is only to keep peace," he recalled.Sitting on the desk, he sighed, "Can't things be simple now?" He wondered.Placing them on top of each other didn't help; beside each other didn't help either.Getting t

Elia continued, hitting the door, "Are you sure my husband is in his study?" She asked,"Yes, ma'am," the staff said. She was certain because she knew when he went in, and she didn't see him leave.Elia smirked before finally leaving the door, but midway to her room, she stopped and turned to the staff again, asking, "Is there anyone inside his office with him?""Yes ma'am, his stepsister." The staff responded innocently.Meanwhile, back inside Xavier's office, he turned to Lisa, who didn't see the need to dress up in a hurry. "Can't you be any faster? Just put on your pants!" He said, but Lisa narrowed her eyes.She didn't care about what Xavier was saying; she just didn't naturally like that he came back home with a woman. "This is why I find it hard to believe you when you tell me that you actually had no hand in Dad's current situation." Lisa said abruptly."What do you mean?" Xavier asked, arching his brows."You know what I'm saying. Don't play dumb like a woman!" She paused, ta

At Alexander's Mansion."You promised to help, didn't you?" Lisa muttered as she slammed the door of Alexander's study,Since Xavier and Elia moved into this mansion a month ago, Lisa had been unable to find a moment to speak with Xavier."I helped, didn't I?" Xavier asked, abandoning the work on his desk to gaze at her."How? Trevor has spent a year in prison. There's no lawyer in this country that even wants to take his case. Father is in prison; he has 19 years to serve in prison!" She said, causing Trevor to narrow his eyes."There's nothing I can do about that situation, Lisa. You're here with your mom, despite how she treated me, which is enough help. I'm being kind here," he muttered, quietly.Lisa swallowed hard and walked back to the door, locking it. She said, "You have a wife now," she muttered."And a child." He added.Lisa chuckled softly, running her hand through her hair. Xavier got to his feet and said, "You should focus on your career, Lisa. Your brothers are getting

1 year later.Elia, Catelyn, and Rosanna had given birth, all on different days, and the country had been calm since Alexander and Brandon faced judgement; they both have to face 20 years imprisonment."Get ready, I need you to come with me," Ethan said to Cersei.Cersei was dressed, ready to attend the town's meeting for a political party that she had joined."I have somewhere to be, Ethan," she informed him."Cancel! Now, you have somewhere more important to be," Ethan informed her, causing Cersei to narrow her eyes, asking,"Where exactly are we going?" She asked,"Today, Winston is 3 months old, and according to my lawyer, I can finally take him from his mother." Ethan informed,"Why do you wish to take the child from his mother?" Cersei asked as she trailed behind Ethan into his car."Catelyn and her father could use him as an advantage. That child is the next Martinez heir. He better be closer to home than further, and I can't let a deceitful woman raise my child," he explained.
Chapter 201
"Mom, you don't want to hear it," Lisa said, trying to get her mom to forget about what she said. "Lisa! Talk to me!" Gwen muttered, holding her hand firmly."Mom, they know. Everybody knows; they've just been keeping it a secret this whole time," Lisa cried, knowing that her family was being dragged down a drain.Gwen held Lisa tight, realizing that her daughter was almost having a seizure."Calm down, Lisa, don't worry; I'll go to the station tomorrow, and we can know just how serious the charges against your brothers are," Gwen said, caressing her back.The next day.Lisa remained in the same spot she was last night. "Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?" Lisa inquired,"No, don't worry. I can handle it," she informed before exiting the room.Lisa sat there, idle on the floor, until she began to hear noise from the sitting room.She hurried there and saw Xavier speaking with the butler. "You didn't do anything when Father was taken away," Lisa said angrily as she ran d
