Ch. 164 / 324 Jul 29, 2025

Ethan stood up slowly, patted the dust on his pants, and said, "Well... Let's go. We'll see each other again."

Jake immediately frowned and said with a bitter face, "Ethan, you'd better go to see her again. The boss's wife doesn't care about you at all."

The next time they met, there was a bar full of guests. There were often fights and fights. None of the people who went there were good-for-nothing. Even the police were too lazy to care about the place.

Ethan dragged the flip-flops, knocked on a melon seed, and said slowly, "Can you stop thinking about women all day long? We are going to find this time."

Hearing the first half of his words, Jake was still thinking that if you are not a woman, why are you sitting on the street and looking at your legs? When he heard the second half of the sentence, he immediately trembled and said, "Ethan! Ahmed sells white powder! Why are you looking for him?! Is it because he and the boss's wife are flirting with each other? He is very difficult to deal with, and we can't do it!"

Ethan still looked like he was going to die. "What are you talking about? We're just going to send us a message."

Jake breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "What news?"

"Good news." Ethan smiled. "He must be happy to know it."

After returning to Reminisland, Hank didn't ask her what she had said to Lilly. After washing up, they fell asleep. Sara used to sleep on the pillow, but he couldn't fall asleep for the whole night.

Hank lowered his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

Sara didn't know that he would sleep in Hank's arms when he fell asleep. Every time, it was Hank who got up first. So until now, Sara thought that he was clearly in the realm with Hank. When he heard the voice of Hank, she turned over and said, "I can't fall asleep."

Hank paused and said, "Little friend, are you acting coquettishly to let me hold you to sleep?"

Sara was startled and quickly waved his hand. "No, no, you should go to sleep first. You have to work tomorrow."

Hank replied with a "Hm".

Sara sighed softly. He stared at the ceiling with his eyes wide open, and then fell asleep with his eyes wide open.

Hearing the long and steady breathing sound in his ear, Hank smiled faintly. Sure enough, in less than a minute, the little child arched like a bug and found his arm to hold it.

Hank waited for Sara to take the initiative and then held her in his arms. He lowered his head and kissed Sara's cheek. He said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid. Uncle is here."

No matter what you did, your uncle is here.

As long as you were well-behaved, even it there were stars in the sky, uncle would pick them for you.

Sara came to the school a little late, and almost all of the classmates in the class had arrived. When Scarlet and Freya saw her, they immediately said, "Phew, have you seen the news?"

Sara took the bottle from Alex's hand with a helpless look, closed his eyes and took a sip. Then he asked, "What news?"

Freya said, "William's mother died in the police station!"

Sara's eyes stopped, and her fingers holding the thermos cup trembled, and the cup almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Alex held her hand in time and said, "Are you so surprised?"

Sara forced a smile and Freya handed the phone to her. "Look."

The screen of the mobile phone was the latest news on the People's Internet and it reported an incredible thing.

It was said that at about two o'clock in the morning, some criminals broke into the police station and took a suspect. After being caught by the police, they found out that this person was a drug dealer whose code name was "Ahmed" There was a drug trafficking gang behind him, and this suspect helped them to sell money. If the matter of money laundering was exposed, Ahmed was afraid that his organization would be exposed, so he rushed into the police station to kill people.

Although the news only provided a few blurry pictures and did not mention who the victim was, Freya, and others all knew that Lilly entered the police station because of money laundering, so when they saw the news, they knew who it was.

Scarlet said, "No wonder William didn't come to school today."

Freya shrugged and said, "My mother is dead. She certainly won't come to school. But her mother is really a fool. How can she end up like a tiger fighting against its skin? Look, she's making herself a fool of herself."

"Didn't she think about it before?" Scarlet said, "At this time, people really can do anything for money."

The two of them sighed for a while, and Sara whispered, "He died a terrible death."

Alex replied calmly, "It's just that you deserve it."

Sara raised his head and looked at him. The young man rubbed her long hair, and there was a hint of anger in his smile. "Don't be afraid."

Sara pursed her lips. For some reason, she felt as if Alex had seen through everything.

"Sir, have you closed the net?"

Hank looked at the list on the table and said, "Okay."

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the police announced that they had destroyed the drug trafficking group hidden in the prosperity of Jena City and arrested a total of 232 members. All of them were arrested in one net.

In the villa of the Martin family.

William never thought that she would be able to take Lilly out of the police station the next afternoon in another way.

Due to the fact that the man was dead, the police allowed their families to bring him back to the burial.

William gritted her teeth and looked at her mother who was lying on the bed with a pale face. She couldn't help trembling with her shoulders, and her fingers clenched the sheets tightly. "... Mom... Mom!"

Yen looked tired. He stretched out his hand to pull William up, but William pushed him away. "Get out of here! It's all your fault! It's all your fault! Otherwise, why would Mother die?

If we brought her back yesterday... She won't die at all!"

Yen was also very guilty. He sighed and said, "William... No one expected this kind of thing to happen. After all, it was your mother who caused this. You don't have to be too sad..."

"So you mean it's all my mother's fault?" William's eyes were scarlet, and her eyes staring at Yen were full of anger. "Dad! She's your wife! Is she inexplicably dead because of your attitude?"

In the face of his daughter's criticism, Yen sighed and whispered, "... What can I do? Your mother is dead!"

William grabbed the already cold hand and gnashed her teeth, saying, "Don't you think it's too coincidental for your mother to die? How can the news spread so fast? Your mother has been working with them for decades, don't they send people to monitor your mother every day?"

Yen was shocked. "You mean..."

"It must be someone who designed it... It must be..." William murmured, "It's too coincidental... At first, my aunt and cousin knew about the past, but later, my cousin stole the contract. Now my mother died in the police station... All of these things are linked together. Someone must have done it on purpose!"
