“I…” Ethan wanted to explain, but he realized he could not.
No matter who it was, they would doubt him after hearing what he said. Thus, he could not explain. No matter what the outcome was, it was still his mistake.
“How am I supposed to explain this to the old master?” asked Ethan's father.
“I... I don't know.” Ethan was confused and did not know what to do.
Hiding the truth from the head of the family was definitely not a good idea. If they kept it hidden and waited for Marcos to reveal it, Ethan would be in deeper trouble.
“Does Marcos know about this?” asked Ethan's father. He thought that if Marcos did not know, they might still have a chance to fix it.
At least Gordan would not tell the head of the family. Those people would not be that petty.
However, Marcos was different.
“He knows.” Ethan's tone was dejected. He dared not to tell his father that it was Marcos who had informed him.
The person on the other end of the line seemed to be struggling to hold back his anger. He was about to say something when the old master’s butler walked out.
Ethan's father said, “You've really disappointed me. I have to go report to work now. I don't have time to discuss this. I'll hang up first.”
Before Ethan could say anything, the call ended.
Ethan was so furious that he wanted to smash his phone.
However, realizing there was important information on it, he stopped himself. He looked toward Marcos' room and secretly vowed that one day, Marcos would pay for this.
The following day, Luke went to Sarah's apartment after lunch as they had agreed.
He rang the doorbell. The maid, seeing it was him, smiled and greeted, “Mr. Crawford, you're here. Please come in. Ms. Poplar is waiting for you inside. I'll step out to buy some groceries for dinner.”
After that, the maid left, giving them privacy to talk.
Luke entered the apartment.
Sarah, knowing he was coming, had already made a pot of tea.
When Sarah saw him coming in, she quickly poured him a cup and said, “Mr. Crawford, thank you for coming over in the middle of the day. Please, have some tea.”
Luke, pressed for time, sat down and took the cup of tea from her with both hands. After taking a sip, he asked, “Ms. Poplar, what do you need me to deliver to Marcos?”
Sarah nodded, knowing he did not have much time. She no longer exchanged pleasantries as she rose to her feet and replied, “Everything's in the bedroom. I'll go get it.”
“Alright.” Luke nodded and took another sip of tea.
Sarah was good at making tea. Even though the tea leaves were not high quality, her mastery of the water temperature made the tea sweet and pleasant, with almost no bitterness.
Marcos would probably love this tea...
Sarah came out of the bedroom and sat back down in her previous spot.
She handed the brown envelope she was carrying to Luke. “Mr. Crawford, please give this to Marcos.”
The envelope contained evidence she had been keeping for over 20 years and a letter she wrote yesterday.
She spent all of yesterday afternoon writing. At dinner, she thought of a few more things, so she wrote two more pages later that night.
