Chapter 258 Antonio is Dead!
As Ethan spoke, his voice trembled with a hint of tears. This child had always been clever and strong, rarely appearing so pitiful.
Upon seeing this, Sarah's eyes also turned red. She stooped down and embraced him, softly comforting him, "Mommy will be fine. Even if it's for my little baby, I won't be in any danger. Don't be afraid, don't cry."
"I'm not crying, I just feel that you've been tired since you've come back," Ethan replied with a trembling voice.
Although he was just a child, he knew that many things had spiraled out of control after Sarah returned to the country. Now, she had even disappeared unexpectedly, and Antonio had been injured. It was too dangerous!
He tilted his head and looked at Sarah, "How about we go back to see Brian? Don't you miss him?"
Of course, Sarah missed him!
But she couldn't go back temporarily.
She glanced at Antonio, who was sitting not far away, holding Harper in his arms. Her gaze dimmed.
"Darling, Mommy can't leave now." Sarah sighed helplessly, looking at him. "I'm sorry, Mommy has disappointed you. I may not be a very good Mommy."
Ethan definitely didn’t mean it that way!
"Mommy, you're the best Mommy in the whole world!" Ethan immediately hugged Sarah. "I'm just really worried about you."
How could he not be worried? Everything else was one thing, but now Sarah was on the verge of falling in love with Antonio again, and that was very dangerous.
'Bad Guy was able to abandon Mommy for another woman and child. What if history repeats itself in the future?'
What would he do then? He didn't want to lose Antonio again after having a father. The best way to avoid losing was not to have one in the first place!
'But…'
He looked up and saw Antonio holding Harper's hand, hopping and jumping on the beach, listening to his sister's joyful laughter.
Why did he feel a bit envious? He really wanted to go over and play with them, but he couldn't. His sister had already been captivated by sugar-coated bombs. He had to hold the last line of defense and protect Sarah resolutely, ensuring she wouldn't suffer the same loss and would walk a different path from before.
Sarah noticed the envy in her son's eyes, feeling a bit uneasy. She looked at the harmonious father and daughter, feeling quite upset.
Would Antonio ever act as a father? Why didn't he care about Ethan's feelings at all?
She quickly picked up Ethan and walked towards the beach together. That night, the family of four spent a tranquil and harmonious evening on this secluded little island.
On the other hand, Valencia Inc. wasn't as peaceful.
Antonio and Sarah had been missing for days, and rumors were spreading that Valencia Inc.'s leader was already deceased.
At first, Lucien pretended to be concerned and dispatched people to search for them.
But after a few days, he couldn't contain himself any longer. Lucien then found an excuse to summon all the shareholders, announcing in front of everyone he would acquire all of Antonio’s shares.
Nobody knew Antonio's whereabouts, but he knew it all too well. It had been so long since his disappearance, and his body should have already been devoured by sharks. Antonio was already dead, so he wanted to retrieve the company's shares as soon as possible to put his minds at ease.
However, everyone was in an uproar. Valencia Inc. owed its current success to Antonio's contributions, so wasn't it a bit hasty to reclaim his shares?
Seeing that the shareholders were all deep in thought, Lucien remained calm and said, "Gentlemen, do not forget that I have the final say in Valencia Inc."
Indeed, if Lucien hadn't been reluctant to relinquish control in the first place, Antonio would not have had the opportunity to achieve great things. There was no need to offend Lucien over a dead man.
