Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 476

In the Lester family's home in Seacisco.

Elissa had just smoked two packs of cigarettes and the whole room was filled with smoke.

When Ritchie walked into the room, he felt choked by all that smoke.

"Mom, it's dinner time." He lifted his hand and fanned the smoke away from his face. After that, he could make out that Elissa was sitting on the edge of the bed, smoking yet another cigarette.

"What does the news say? What's your father's attitude like?" Elissa's fingers shook and her face was in the shadows, so there was no way to see the expression on her face.

Ritchie scratched the back of his head and then said, "Several families of those hurt have taken banners to protest under our office building. Dad is still at the company currently. It's most likely that he has snapped because of this."

After hearing that, Elissa's hand suddenly trembled and the ash tumbled to the floor.

"Did he say anything at all?" All of a sudden, she opened her eyes wide and turned to look at Ritchie in panic.

Ritchie's face darkened visibly. He lowered the volume of his voice and asked, "Mom, were you behind this?"

Even though he had his doubts, he hadn't been able to confirm them yet.

Elissa swallowed nervously. She was very anxious now and was willing to tell Ritchie the truth.

"I was the one behind it. I even used our men. I thought we would succeed in getting rid of Ethan this time. As long as he's dead, even if the authorities wanted to investigate this matter, with the Lester family's connections, we could sort things out and shift the blame to the constructors. We could arrange it so that it looks like an accident,"
