Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 2405

Chapter 2405

Esther threw the bat away and told the two men to look after Ava before turning away.

After getting in the car, she called Ethan back.

Esther was even angrier when she heard that Daniel had gone to look for her.

However, she did not show it. She replied in a soft voice that she was shopping outside and would be back in a while before hanging up the phone.

When she thought that the life of her precious daughter, whom she had doted on for more than 20 years, was over, Esther's desire for revenge grew stronger and stronger. Madeline and Jeremy followed Daniel to the Mendez family's manor, but they did not expect Ethan to be at home at this time.

Compared to Esther's unfriendliness, Ethan seemed to be a rather polite person.

Although he was very heartbroken and regretful about Naya's incident, he felt that Naya was just suffering the consequences of her actions. He could not blame anyone.

He asked the servant to make tea and prepare snacks before sitting down.

"You said Ava came to see my wife not long ago, but I've been at home today and we haven't had any guests." Ethan was curious. "Is there a misunderstanding? Try calling Ava again and see if you can get in touch with her."

"We could get through to her just now, but her phone's turned off now."

Madeline's face was full of worry, then she analyzed the situation.

"I've known Ava for so many years, so I can somewhat guess her thought process. She thought that Dan was kidnapped, so she spent all morning being worried. She had the idea of coming to look for Mrs. Mendez, but my husband and I stopped her. However, she ran out by herself, so I guess she must have gone to look for Mrs. Mendez alone because she was too worried about Dan."

Ethan looked even more confused after hearing what Madeline said. "Dan was kidnapped? Isn't he right here? Even if he was kidnapped, why would it be related to my wife? Why did you say that, Mrs. Whitman?"

When Jeremy saw Ethan looking confused, he explained, "Mr. Mendez, I heard that Naya slit her wrist in prison to try to kill herself. You and your wife only got to visit her after pulling a lot of strings, right?" Ethan's eyes flickered when he heard that. Then, he nodded to admit, "Indeed."

"Then, do you remember what Naya told you when you were in the detention ward?"

Ethan was stunned again. He still remembered Naya's face when she said fiercely that she would never forgive Ava.

However, he did not expect Jeremy to know about that.

"Mr. Whitman, what are you trying to say?"

"What I want to say is, Mr. Mendez, you're an honest and trustworthy businessman and a good father. But you may not have a good wife. Otherwise, how could your daughter have been spoiled into someone who dares to kill?"

"..." Ethan's face suddenly turned pale, not knowing what to say.

In silence, the servant came to inform him that Esther was back.

Esther came in carefreely with her bag. When she saw Madeline and the others sitting on the sofa in the living room, she chuckled disdainfully and said sarcastically, "What's going on? The top young master and young mistress in Glendale are here."

Madeline and Jeremy did not want to waste time contending with Esther. When they were about to go straight to the point, Daniel suddenly got up and strode in front of Esther.

"Where's Ava?"

When Esther heard what he said, she displayed a surprised and amused look.

"Daniel, you've lost your memories. Why are you acting crazy here? How would I know where that vixen you mentioned is?"

"Please watch your mouth. You're someone with status," Daniel reminded her solemnly. Then, he asked again, "You must know where Ava is. Tell me right now."
