“They confessed. It‘s all in this video. How do you want to do this?” Ethan slid the flash drive in front of
Janet.

“I couldn‘t care less about Jeff, but I know that my parents still care about Lila. I want to talk to them
first.” Janet was hesitant. She didn‘t think it was a good idea to put Lila behind bars without consulting
her parents first.

Upon hearing this, Ethan‘s expression darkened. He reached for Janet‘s hand and said softly but firmly,
“I respect that, but you shouldn‘t be asking your parents for their opinion. You should just be informing
them about what lila has done. I‘m not going to let her go this time, honey.”

Unlike Janet, Ethan wasn‘t as indecisive. He sent the video directly to the Whites. When Johanna
watched the video, she was furious.

“I raised her for twenty years, but this is what I get in return? A criminal? How dare she do something like
this?!” Even Beal gave up on his former daughter completely. What she had done this time was simply
too despicable for words. He rubbed his temples and sighed, “Do whatever you want with her. She has to
be punished. She is no longer a member of the White family. Whatever she has done has nothing to do
with us.”

After Jeff and Lila were brought to court, they were sentenced to jail. The Gillian family was poor, so they
couldn‘t hire a good lawyer for Lila and Jeff. And even if they did have the money, they had offended
Brandon Larson. No lawyer in Barnes would be willing to take their case.

As if that wasn‘t bad enough, the Gillian family‘s small grocery store was in shambles. A group of thugs
kept showing up at the store and made a scene, which forced them to shut down the business. Glenn
and Eva couldn‘t get Jeff out of prison and had no means of livelihood in Barnes.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Charis had been living in Barnes this whole time. Even her parents thought
that she was traveling abroad. She hadn‘t made any moves lately.

After all, Ethan had almost found her out after the parachute incident. Luckily, she reacted quickly to get
rid of Lila‘s coach in time. Although the woman didn‘t die in the end, she could never talk again as a
vegetable. Now, she knew she had to lie low. But lying low didn‘t mean she couldn‘t keep a close eye on
Ethan‘s and Janet‘s movements.

What had unfolded recently was really interesting. It never occurred to Charis that Lila would be expelled
from the White family so soon. She had been the Whites‘ daughter for over twenty years after all. What
surprised her more was that very soon after Lila joined the Gillian family, she conspired against Janet
with her brother.

And now, Ethan had put the two siblings behind bars for good. Charis had no pawns left. She had never
thought that Lila would be this stupid. If she had continued to work with her, she might‘ve gotten her own
ass in trouble, too. Jeff, on the other hand, had piqued Charis‘s interest. He looked like a reckless fool
who would do anything for money. Charis felt that she had found a new pawn. At first, she had had no
hope for the Gillians, but now it seemed it was necessary for her to drop by Barnes‘ Prison.
