WantNovelChapter 1000: Ethan gave a low hum of acknowledgment. "Does Hector have a vendetta against the Wilson Group? Why is he treating Gracie and her father like this?" From Gracie, Ethan had learned of Hector's greed and brutality-seizing all of the Wilson Group's assets and mistreating both her and her father. Yet, Gracie had always dodged explaining why.
Ethan wasn't stupid; he had pressed her multiple times, but she had refused to answer that. Her evasions had led him to order an investigation in Norview. He continued, "Gracie said Hector abused her and her father physically and took over the Wilson Group's assets and business. Did you find out why?" The general manager replied, "I uncovered smotives, Boss. You won't believe this. Hector's aunt was in a relationship with Gracie's father years ago. Hector's family was poor at that time, and to marry the President's daughter, Gracie's father brutally killed Hector's aunt. Hector's father almost died because of this, too. That's likely why Hector and his father are targeting the Wilson Group." After a pause, he continued, "Gracie's father isn't the saint the media paints him as; he is ruthless and has killed a lot of women. Hector's aunt was just one of them. What's more shocking is that Gracie's father runs a massive underground..." "Operation trafficking human organs, and Gracie might know about it, or even be complicit. I've sent you files with evidence of the Wilson Group's crimes to your email." Ethan's fists tightened, veins pulsing. Gracie was involved in something so vile? "Keep investigating!" he ordered.

Her body was sold to private institutions. Their methods of dealing with her body were shockingly brutal..." Ethan was stunned. Still reeling from what he had heard, he climbed into the car and told Neville to take him home.
He returned to the neighborhood where Brenna lived and deliberately passed by her house, noticing that the light in her room was still on. He stared at it for a moment, then it hit him. He had made a terrible mistake by trusting Gracie without question.
He pulled out his phone and sent a message to Brenna.
"Brenna, I was wrong. I'm sending you sdocuments. Please take a look. I know I made a mistake." He forwarded the email he had received to Brenna, hoping she would read it. He tried calling Gracie again and again, but she did not pick up. A few tries later, he found that her phone was turned off.
He realized that Gracie was probably in a bad situation. Still, knowing that she and her father were bad people made it easier for him to feel less concerned about her.
After going over every document in the email, Ethan finally understood everything.
He couldn't sleep and waited for Brenna to reply to his message, but even by three in the morning, there was no response from her.
Sunday came. Brenna didn't get out of bed until noon. She stretchedm ye checked her phone, and saw the email. After washing up, she sat down to open it.
Her face stayed blank. She had always known Hector and his father were decent men who played fair in business. If Hector had acted against Gracie, there had to be a reason.
Ethan had kept saying Gracie was innocent and that she was just a poor girl caught in the middle, Brennan hadn't bothered to argue with him. If he wanted to stand by Gracie and treat her kindly, he could do so. She had already chosen to end things with him.
