Half a year later, Isabella really came.
She knelt in front of me, shouting hoarsely.
“Gina, please save my son. Only you can save him now.”
She crawled towards me and grabbed the hem of my pants with her hand. “Ethan’s father wants to kill him and has imprisoned him. I really have no other way. Please help me.”
I took a sip of tea and asked, “What’s going on?”
It turned out that my father–in–law’s current child was sick and needed a kidney transplant, but my father–in–law wasn’t a match. Isabella’s child’s genes were a match, so that’s why my father–in–law had brought her to his villa.
At first, Isabella thought that she would become more respected because of her son, but the situation gradually got out of her control.
Her child would always have
injuries on his body, and he would also
encounter falling objects from high places when walking on the road. It was only when Isabella found out that my father–in–law’s child needed a kidney transplant that she
understood the abnormal situations during this period.
She originally wanted to take her child and leave, but my father–in–law noticed it.
My father–in–law used bodyguards to stop the child and directly drove her out of the
house.
“Then you shouldn’t be begging me. You should call the police.” I sincerely gave her a
suggestion.
“I already called the police, but it didn’t work.”
Isabella cried and said that when the police went, my father–in–law would become very nice and even let her take the child away. But Isabella’s son had been spoiled by my father–in–law during this period. He knew that he wouldn’t have such a good life if he left

his grandfather, so he refused to leave no matter what.
“So I can only come to you.” Isabella had snot and tears all over her face. “Please help us. After all, Zach is Ethan’s own flesh and blood.”
“Why should I help? This is your child with Ethan, not my child with Ethan.”
I took an indifferent attitude as if it had nothing to do with me.
Unexpectedly, Isabella said, “Because Ethan loved you.”
Isabella told me that the person Ethan had always loved was actually me. The disgusting things he did to me, like wanting to divorce me and be with Isabella, were all because he
had a terminal illness.
“Ethan didn’t have much time left. He didn’t want to delay you.”
Isabella was telling me about Ethan’s love for me, but I didn’t show much emotional
reaction.
I knew he loved me.
I also knew he was dying.
After all, he drank and partied every day and had to rely on medicine to maintain his strength. How could he not get sick? And if he got sick and didn’t take medicine, how could
he not die?
I was the one who got Ethan’s physical examination reports every year. I knew his physical condition better than he did.
“So what?” I sneered, “Should I save your son?”
Isabella didn’t expect me to be so cold–blooded. She realized later, “You don’t love Ethan
at all.”
It was more than that.
I hated him.

Isabella was desperate. There was no one else who could help her except me.
She also went to see Victoria, but Victoria had lost all her remaining money in an
investment some time ago. She went to ask my father–in–law for money every day and was trying to curry favor with him at the moment. How could she offend him?
“Zach, what should I do? Mom can’t save you
Isabella beat her chest in grief.
I watched her go crazy for a while and then said, “Isabella, do you remember that I asked you why you broke up with Ethan in the first place?”
Isabella stopped crying. “We…”
“If you tell me the truth, I can consider saving your son.”
Isabella bit her lip. After a few minutes, she seemed to make up her mind. “It’s because Ethan hit and killed someone that year.”
That day, Ethan took Isabella to the mountains to watch the stars. On the way back, they encountered a heavy rainstorm, and Ethan hit and killed someone.
That woman lay on the ground, covered in blood and flesh.
But Ethan was surprisingly calm. He first sent Isabella home and then went to deal with
the matter.
Isabella thought that Ethan would go to jail because of this matter, so she broke him the next day and went abroad with the help of her family.

When she came back after not doing well abroad, she found that Ethan not only didn’t go to jail but also became even richer, so she shamelessly stuck to him again.
As I listened to these words, my hands were shaking, and my voice was terrifyingly low.
“Then do you know how he dealt with the body later?”
