Chapter 1122:
“Oh, just shut up.” Emmett swatted at him playfully.
Kenny laughed.
Seeing Kenny in good spirits, Ethan felt reassured. Still, he checked with the doctor about Kenny's condition. The
doctor confirmed everything was fine, easing his mind.
After leaving the doctor's office, Ethan headed out, as he had a meeting with Waldo in the evening.
Gracie stepped out of the bathroom after her shower and froze when she saw a hamster sauntering across the
living room like it owned the place, pausing to stare at her mid-stride.
Terrified of rodents, Gracie let out a piercing scream.
For days, she had noticed hamsters darting around her room, and at night, she could hear them chewing on her
furniture. But she hadn't found the right moment to tell Ethan about it. The timing just never seemed right.
That night, Gracie climbed into bed, nerves on edge, convinced that there was also a hamster in her bedroom.
She couldn't sleep, the faint squeaking sound keeping her on edge.
When she finally drifted off, she felt something furry brush against her hand. As she instinctively closed her
fingers around it, the thing moved.
Realizing what it was, she jolted awake.

Trembling and in tears, she grabbed her phone and called Ethan.

around him.
Neville had driven him back and helped him up to his bedroom on the second floor.
Ethan was in high spirits. “That old fox Waldo is so cunning. He was discussing business with both the Harper
family and the Wagner family, but in the end, he chose us.”
After easing Ethan onto the sofa in the room, Neville replied, “Yeah. We're the strongest option. Waldo was only
holding out for the best deal.”
A soft voice broke the moment as Elsa appeared in her pajamas, a look of disapproval crossing her face as she
took in her son's state. “Neville, thank you for bringing Ethan home. I'll handle things from here. You should go
back and rest.”

Without hesitation, Neville nodded. “Mrs. Mitchell, I'll be on my way.” Then, he left.
Rubbing his aching head, Ethan tried to reassure Elsa, saying, “Mom, I'm alright. Just need a shower and some
sleep. Don’t worry about me.”
Worry flickered in Elsa's eyes as she
looked at him. “You don't have 9

Left alone, Elsa could only sigh, resignation softening her features.
