Chapter 201 Hangover and Fallout
Third–Person POV:
Hearing this, Eleanor felt a pang of sympathy for her.
She pictured her sweet little granddaughter–that soft, pale face.
How could this have happened…?

Before she could speak, Iris continued, her voice trembling, “I failed Ethan. I couldn’t protect our pup. It’s all my fault.
“I want Lillian dead. I really do. But… I just can’t bring myself to do it.”
Then Iris completely broke down, sobbing uncontrollably.
Eleanor shut her eyes, pained. “You’re right. Ethan is gone. Remember, Ethan is—”
“No. My Ethan isn’t dead. The one who died isn’t Ethan. It’s not him.”
Eleanor had seized the moment to reinforce the truth, but Iris suddenly shifted.
“My Ethan. My Ethan isn’t dead.”
Eleanor and Hilda exchanged a glance.
They both wanted to say something, but Iris was already slipping back into that hollow, depressed state.
Just then, Edith pushed the door open, took in the scene, and hurried over to comfort Iris. “Miss, what’s wrong?”
“Ethan. I want my Ethan. Our pup is gone… Why isn’t Ethan here with me?”
She was thrashing in distress. Edith pulled her into a firm hug.

In the end, Eleanor and Hilda weren’t quite sure how they ended up outside the room. Eleanor’s expression was dark
Hilda knew what was bothering her and tried to smooth things over. “You know she’s not in a good place mentally, Why push like
that?”
“who knows if that ‘mental state‘ is even real,” Eleanor shot back sharply
At first, she had believed tris depression was severe.
But after watching iris persistently pressure Julian, Eleanor began to wonder whether any of it was genuine.

“Why would Lillian hand them over so easily? She’s probably hiding the body to avoid taking responsibility Hics replied, ther voice tight with anger.
Julian woke with a pounding headache. After drinking heavily the night before, his stomach churned.
He lay in the darkened room for a long time.
That sick, hollow feeling in his gut–he hadn’t felt it in a while. Not since he and Lillian had been together.
Back when Lillian was around, every time he stumbled home drunk from a business dinner, she would place a warm towel over? chest. By morning, the hangover would be gone.
Now, the throbbing in his head and the twist in his stomach were just another reminder that Lillian wasn’t there anymore.
“Buzz, buzz, buzz.” Thomas was calling.
Julian winced and answered. “Yeah.”
“The projects in Bagon City–we’re about to lose all of them.”
Hearing it was about Bagon City, Julian closed his eyes. He took a slow breath and could still taste the alcohol.
“Langley Group again?”
Thomas confirmed, “Yes.”
Julian stayed silent.
Hearing Langley Group’s name once more, he was genuinely perplexed. He was sure he’d never done anything to cross them.
But now they were coming after him like… a wolf with a bone.
“You still haven’t found out why?”
Thomas answered, “No.”
Julian had no idea how the Graves Pack and Langley Group had ended up on bad terms, so he’d tasked Them
So far, Thomas had turned up nothing.
Hearing the hesitation in Thomas‘ voice, Julian operied his eyes, his gaze to “is this really

Yet now they were clearly gunning for him.
And the only connection in his circle to Langley Group was Finn.
So aside from Finn, Julian couldn’t think of any other reason.
