Chapter 570: Avenged Your Mother

In the courthouse of Seacisco.It didn‘t take long before the jury came to a conclusion.The evidencegiven by Ethan was clear, concise, and in a word, damning.

Because the two families involved were equally powerful, the case could only be presented withevidence.

In the end, the judge confirmed the authenticity of the evidence Ethan had put out.

Ethan won the trial.

Elissa was rendered guilty of the two charges, the intentional homicide twenty years ago and the recentattempted murder.

When the verdict was announced, Seth raised his eyebrows and looked at Ethan.They hadn‘t seeneach other in years, and in Seth‘s eyes, Ethan had changed a lot.

Ethan noticed the man‘s gaze and turned to look straight at him.The two locked eyes.

Seth smiled politely at him, but the smile was somewhat unfathomable.He nodded at Ethan, turnedaround, and then left.

The second he walked out of the courthouse, Ritchie couldn‘t hold it in any longer and exploded.

"Fuck!"

His nostrils flared as he roared, "Dad really didn‘t help! Mom stayed loyal to him for years and she onlytried to get rid of Ethan for our family‘s sake.If Dad did something, things might‘ve turned outdifferently!"

"Calm down.Someone could hear you."

Seth put his hand on Ritchie‘s shoulder and warned him in a low voice.

Ritchie had always had a bad temper, ever since he was a child.

Ritchie had no choice but to clamp his mouth shut.

Seth talked to the lawyer in a hushed voice for a while.He was still calm.He had never seen Ethan as athreat and never understood why Elissa was so wary of him.

Even if he did view Ethan as a threat, he never would‘ve resorted to murder.

Killing someone was such a despicable way to deal with them.

As a businessman, he always defeated his enemies by means of business.

Now that Elissa‘s crimes had been exposed, she had to face the consequences.

But now, Seth finally saw Ethan in a different light.

Over the years, while living in Sugden, he had heard stories of the legendary Brandon Larson, but hehad never met him in person.

So it came as a complete shock when he found out that Brandon Larson was actually Ethan.

Seth was older than Ritchie and Ethan, so he went to a different school.He had only rememberedseeing Ethan twice when he was still a young schoolboy.

At the time, he had thought Ethan was just a shy introvert.

It seemed that he had severely underestimated his youngest brother.

This was the first time that Seth really saw what Ethan was capable of.

On the day the verdict came out, Ethan took the verdict to Sylvia’s grave.

The cemetery was overgrown with thick grass, and it was quiet.

The air was thick with the scent of flowers and pine trees.

Ethan stood in front of his mother‘s grave solemnly.

All of a sudden, he pulled out his lighter, lit the document in his hand, and burned it to dust.He didn‘tsay a word until the paper was nothing but ashes, floating with the wind.

Standing next to him, Janet didn‘t know what to say to comfort him.She put her hand on his back andsaid gently, "You‘ve finally avenged your mother."

Ethan ran his fingers over the words engraved on the tombstone, and his eyes landed on the black andwhite photo on the tombstone.He withdrew his gaze from the gentle woman in the photo and lookedinto the distance silently.

After a long time, he said, "I‘m not done yet."
