    Chapter 623


    Ethan’s grandfather was strict with him, but the older man protected him well.


    His grandfather didn’t tell him the truth, simply saying that Keh was busy with work, so he didn’t


    have the time toe


    home.


    At that time, the innocent Ethan believed that Keh was working to feed the family, not knowing that


    Keh actually


    had a family out there.


    While Ethan knew nothing about it, Darrell knew Ethan like the back of his hand.


    Darrell and the other kids joined hands, smearing cake over Ethan’s face, arms, neck, and body.


    Every part of Ethan’s body was dirty.


    Theyughed at him, andughter jared into Ethan’s ears.


    Still, he was unbothered by it as he stared at Keh in a daze.


    Ethan thought that Keh would be in pain watching him getting bullied and carry him or stop the kids


    fromughing.


    However, Keh just stood over there indifferently like a passerby.


    Darrell said the most hurtful thing with his angelic face,


    “Ethan, you’re like your mother. You shouldn’t exist in this world. One day, I will steal everything from


    you because they are supposed to be mine.”


    Ethan’s driver rushed over from afar to carry Ethan, who was covered in cream, away.


    The car was slowly driven away.


    Ethan saw his supposed father wiping the cream off Darrell’s fingers so carefully, as though Darrell was


    someone precious.


    Ethan didn’t know what he had done wrong, why Keh wouldn’t acknowledge him as his son, and


    why he hated him so much.


    That night, Keh didn’t return home to celebrate Ethan’s birthday.


    Thinking that he could at least see his mother, Ethan cheered himself up.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Yet, before he could make a wish to blow the candles out, his emotionally unstable mother suddenly


    carried him and ran to the balcony.


    She jumped off from the balcony, and Ethan gazed at the starry sky.


    Ethan recalled Darrell’s face when Keh let him ride on his shoulders.


    Darrell told Ethan that he was going to steal everything from him, and Ethan wondered if Darrell need


    not do so if he was dead.


    That little boy’s face matched with the man, who was d in a white suit. Despite his smooth and sleek


    clothing, he was using the most disgusting method possible.


    Darrell bought off the senior management and shareholders one by one like a poisonous insect.


    Everything that Keh gave him couldn’t satisfy him.


    Keh had built up anotherpany, which showed good development abroad. But its achievement


    couldn’t bepared to Miller Group, which carried histories since over a century ago.


    It wasn’t that Darrell’s family didn’t try to butter Ethan’s grandparents up these years. They actually


    wanted to return to the family.


    However, Ethan’s grandfather didn’t give in. “I don’t have a son like you, and that’s final. Ethan will


    inherit all of the assets.”


    Ethan had caught on to the fact that Darrell was plotting something behind the scenes. But Darrell


    covered his tracks well enough to make it difficult for Ethan to collect evidence.


    This time, Darrell catastrophized Olivia’s incident, intending to gain something good out of this. That


    was why he showed up.


    Brazenly, Darrell seated himself in the main seat as though he was the true owner of Miller Group.


    “It’s been a while, Ethan.” Darrell was wearing a dazzling smile like he always did when he was young,


    yet he could do the cruelest thing possible.


    “Call the security guards to take out whoever is unrted here,” ordered Ethan. He showed no


    intention to continue the courtesy.


    Darrell assumed that his n was so perfect that it had caught Ethan off-guard, hence the triumphant


    smile. “Sorry, Ethan, but I’m attending this asion as a shareholder.”


    Ethan crossed his arms, looking at Darrell disdainfully. “So you do know that you’re a shareholder and


    not the chairman. “I thought you’ve lost a screw in your head after not having seen each other for so


    long.”
