Chapter 357 Tiger Mount
"Jessie, a lot happened while you were gone. Brady tested Ethan. He even announced Ethan would inherit the Wilson family, but Ethan turned it down! He didn't value the chance!" Zephyr stepped forward.
"So, I should thank Brady? Ethan didn't want to be the Wilson heir, so it's his fault, right?" Jessie laughed sarcastically. She didn't know Zephyr, but she knew Brady would never really hand over the family to Ethan.
"Jessie, I know I've wronged your family over the years, and I'm sorry!" Brady said, swallowing his pride.
He never expected Ethan, who was a nobody six months ago, to surpass the four major families now. The scariest part wasn't Ethan himself, but his backers, Francis and Phoenix. As the head of the ZF Guild, Ethan didn't need the Wilson heir title.
"You're kidding. You're the Wilson family leader; no need to apologize. Besides, Ethan and I aren't part of the Wilson family anymore!" Jessie snorted.
"Jessie, I've announced publicly that Ethan is the sole heir of the Wilson family. Please don't be mad," Brady pleaded.
"It's too late. The Miller and Harris families know all about the Wilson family's affairs!" Munro suddenly smiled, his words cutting deep for Brady.
"Who are you, please?" Jessie asked, unsure of Munro's identity.
"Jessie, we're family. Ethan is my future son-in-law; I'm Munro Miller!" Munro smiled.
Jessie was shocked. She knew Ethan and Sarah were together. How did a daughter-in-law from the Miller family come into the picture?
"You can ask Ethan when he wakes up!" Clarence, seeing Jessie's confusion, blushed and shook his head with a bitter smile.
Jessie looked at Clarence and Munro, unsure of what had happened, but she set it aside for now. She knew the Miller and Harris families were on her side. With Francis and Phoenix, she wasn't too worried about Ethan's safety.
After years of separation, the day of reunion with Ethan had finally come!
"Jessie, can you convince Ethan to come back to the Wilson family? He'll listen to you. Please consider the bigger picture!" Brady, feeling ignored, tried to keep his cool but was clearly frustrated.
"We might return, but you need to explain two things first!" Jessie said, not even looking at Brady, but addressing Ethan.
"What do you want me to explain?" Brady asked, frowning.
"Who leaked our location during the car accident years ago? Don't tell me it was just an accident!" Jessie demanded coldly.
"This isn't the place to discuss it. Can we talk about it back at the Wilson family? I'll explain everything then," Brady suggested cautiously, looking stunned.
"Fine, later then," Jessie agreed surprisingly easily.
Clarence and Munro exchanged uneasy glances.
"What's the second thing?" Brady asked.
"We'll discuss the second thing after you explain the first. If Ethan wakes up, I'll have him set aside any grudges with the Wilson family for now. Once we get the answers we need, we'll decide what to do next," Jessie said calmly.
Seeing Jessie had no intention of talking further, Brady knew it was pointless to stay. He awkwardly led the Wilsons back down the mountain.
"Once Ethan wakes up, the Ashford and Wilson families won't have it easy!"
"Definitely the Ashford family. Dorian was so arrogant, but Ethan beat him in the end!"
"Let's not even talk about the Wilson family. Who knows if Ethan will really take over? Just shut up!"
As the Wilsons left, onlookers started gossiping again.
Suddenly, Ethan, who was in the sky, moved and slowly stood up.
"Is he finally waking up? It's been seven days and nights, and there's finally some progress!"
Everyone watching was excited.
The Sun and Moon Beads in front of Ethan stopped spinning and floated quietly before him. Although Ethan stood up, his eyes remained closed.
At the same time, behind Ethan, a misty mountain slowly appeared in a blue-green glow, like a mirage!
"Look! Is that the legendary Tiger Mount?"
"Tiger Mount has really appeared!"
"The passage to Tiger Mount has opened near Everglow City!"
The entire mountain was in an uproar, and everyone was talking excitedly!
"Tiger Mount has finally opened!" Phoenix said, watching the scene.
"Everyone better behave. Without the head's permission, only ZF Guild members can enter Tiger Mount. It's a rule set by the ZF Guild a thousand years ago!" Francis warned everyone who looked eager to move.
