Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3215

Ethan returned to his suite. He could not help but kick the door in frustration.

His foot hurt, but the door remained unscathed, fueling his simmering anger.

His expression darkened.

The suite was eerily quiet as Ethan slumped onto the couch, his throbbing foot a constant reminder of the harsh reality.

Marcos' earlier threat rang true.

The person he despised most in the Abaza family had just threatened him, which made Ethan feel uneasy. Even if he had to keep it from the old master, he had to inform his father.

His father was the only one who could help him to deal with this matter.

With that thought in mind, Ethan reached for his phone, intending to call his father. However, it rang before he could dial.

It was a call from his father himself.

No time to marvel at the synchronicity, Ethan answered, “Dad, I was just about to call you.”

“Shut up!” The voice on the other end of the line sounded furious.

Ethan bit back his words.

The tone did not bode well. He felt apprehensive and sensed that he was about to be held accountable.

If he disclosed what happened with Gordan to them now, would he merely be scolded?

That would be too light a punishment. His main concern was that his family could not bear the consequences.

“Ethan, Old Master Abaza held you in such high regard and entrusted you with such an important task, yet you managed to botch it up. What were you thinking?!” His father's voice thundered, criticizing him relentlessly.

“How are we supposed to carry on in the Abaza family?”

“Dad, let me explain…” Ethan's temples throbbed. His father's anger from the other end of the phone seemed ready to burst through.

“Fine, explain yourself. If you can't explain this time, I won't be able to explain to Old Master Abaza!” Ethan's father was angry. He had to report to the old master soon.

However, given the situation, there was no way he could explain it to him.

“The plan wasn't supposed to fail because I hired some of the best mercenaries internationally, so the chances of failure were almost zero.”

“I don't want to hear this. It's a fact that you've failed, no?" Ethan's father was now standing at the door of the old master's office. He was going to report to the old master in a moment.

This matter was sure to be part of the report.

He also needed to help Ethan cover up this matter. Otherwise, the old master would blame their family, and they could forget about having a good life in Russia in the future.

“Yes, it's a failure, but there's a reason for it. Marcos passed on a message to Luke that Matysh was about to escape from prison. Luke's men cooperated with the police and learned about our plan in advance. That's why we failed,” Ethan explained quickly.

Ethan's father also valued interests more than familial affection. Hence, he had to shift the blame and protect his interests.

In this family, interest was more important than anything else. Thus, he had to learn to keep his own interests.

Ethan's father immediately asked, “Do you have any evidence?”

Ethan replied, “No. You need audio recordings for this stuff, but Marcos didn't leave any. Dad, it's impossible for me to get evidence.”

He felt frustrated.

Gordan had evidence in his hands but not him!

It was not because he was careless. Marcos was just really cunning. All it took was a slight leak to Luke and more followed naturally.

In such a situation, getting evidence was challenging.
