“Oh, and about my savings, since we’ve been married, I’ll leave it all to you,” Elaine drawled. “Take the money, find someone new, have some kids. If you can, have more and maybe adopt one for me, so someone will remember me when I’m gone.
Elaine paused for a moment, then added, “As for Nina… forget it She’s got plenty of people to remember her. She doesn’t need another kid. Too many kids are just trouble anyway. Let’s just leave it at that.”
Ethan’s expression turned serious. “I’ll never marry anyone but you, ever!”
“Don’t be so stubborn…” Elaine started, but Ethan cut her off.
“Enough. I’m coming with you,” Ethan said firmly.
Elaine raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t you scared?”
“If I’m going to hell, at least I’ll have my wife and my little sister with me. What’s there to be afraid of?” Ethan said, dead serious. “And if we end up down there, I can still cook for you guys!”
Simon was speechless.
What kind of wild scene have I stumbled into this time?’ Simon thought.
Now I have to sit here and listen to these two talk crazy with a straight face?’
Whatever. Better throw on my headphones before they say something so nuts I end up swerving us right into a ditch,’ Simon thought.
Half an hour later, Simon pulled up in front of Nina’s house.
As soon as they walked in, the four elders of the Foster family showed up.
Maria spotted Simon and rushed over. “Any news about Nina?”
Simon opened his mouth to speak, but before he could get a word out, Elaine suddenly burst into tears. “Grandma Maria, Nina… she’s dead!”
‘What the hell just happened?’ Simon thought.
“W-What?” Maria felt her mind go numb, nearly blacking out on the spot.
Zachary caught her just in time. “Hey, darling, are you okay?”
Maria shook her head, her whole body trembling as she stared at Simon. “Is… is this for real?”
Simon was about to say something, but Elaine cut him off again. It’s real. Nina’s been found. Her body’s being brought back as we speak.”
Elaine suddenly broke down, crying her eyes out. “Those people are monsters! Nina died a terrible death! They did horrible things to her…”
Maria couldn’t take it anymore and fainted on the spot.
Grace and the others were about to say something, but seeing Maria like that, they hurried to get her to the hospital.
Once the four elders from the Foster family left, Simon frowned and asked, “Elaine, why did you have to freak Maria out like that?”

Chapter 460
Maria’s always been good to Nina, plus she’s Ryan’s grandma. Nina’s always respected her.
And now, Elaine scared her so much she passed out.
If Nina finds out, she’s gonna flip.
Elaine grabbed a beer from the fridge, cracked it open, and took a sip. “That’s the whole point. If she faints, it’ll stir up outside. When things get wild out there, whatever we do will look justified. No one can point fingers at us.”
Simon was speechless. “Did you really have to freak them out like that? Maria’s sharp, if you just told her the plan, she’d know how to play along.”

Elaine shot him a look. “Come on, you think Maria can’t tell how much of my story is total BS? Even if she didn’t catch on, my crocodile tears should’ve tipped her off. Why else do you think she passed out?”
Simon was silent for a moment, then gave Elaine a thumbs-up. Damn, you really are something else!”
