Chapter 045 Panic

Eric went directly to the hospital. The injury to his hand was a minor issue. The real problem was the drink he consumed.

Although he had received gastric lavage, some of the drugs had already been absorbed. His reproductive organs immediately swelled grotesquely, making him worry that he would become impotent.

"I encountered a little situation in Boston. Have the deputy housekeeper come here!" Eric lay on the hospital bed, holding his phone, giving orders.

The deputy housekeeper of the Hawker family was named Jack. He specialized in handling dark matters for the Hawker family, with ruthless and venomous methods, leaving no room for escape.

When everyone heard that Eric wanted to summon the deputy housekeeper, ‘Jack’, many gasped in shock. Who could have offended Mr. Hawker to the point of requiring Jack's involvement...

"Boston is very lively. Even the young master of the Hawker family suffered here, and now he's calling for Jack, the deputy housekeeper!" Cara sat on the couch, painting her nails, smiling.

"Jack? He's really coming to Boston?!" Diana, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating nearby, opened her eyes in surprise.

Diana was dressed in casual shorts and a T-shirt, her fair skin exposed, completely different from her imposing figure in military uniform, adding a sense of charm.

A person with an extraordinary beauty that is rarely seen.

Unfortunately, this scene is not appreciated by any man.

Cara giggled and said, "Don't you know? Eric got beaten up in Boston, his hands were pierced with a fork!"

Hearing this, Michelle frowned involuntarily. This brute had caused such a big trouble!

Eric's background was hundreds of times stronger than Jasmine's in the bar. They were not even in the same league. This guy was getting more and more troublesome!

Diana shook her head. She had no interest in playboys like Eric. The only surprising thing was that Jack had to get involved in this matter.

Jack, the assistant steward of the Hawker family, had a notorious reputation for many years. He was a very sinister person and personally dealt with many dark matters for the Hawker family.

Diana even suspected that the old man Jack was involved in the extermination of a whole family of eighteen members, related to a certain businessman from years ago.

"If I tell you that the person who pierced Eric's palm is your former fiancé, would you be interested?" Cara looked at Diana with a smile, asking like this.

After hearing this, Diana's legs suddenly stretched out, and she frowned. "How did he end up in a conflict with Eric?"

Cara briefly explained the situation, which made Diana shake her head repeatedly.

"Although it's for the sake of protecting his wife, he's too impulsive and reckless. He's doomed to accomplish nothing!" Diana said.

Cara said, "Yeah, with Jack personally coming over this time, your fiancé probably won't escape death."

Diana snorted and said, "Michelle, bring me my military uniform!"

Michelle was surprised and said, "Miss, is it necessary to offend the Hawker family for him..."

"I unilaterally tore up the engagement contract and feel guilty. Besides, I promised to help him settle two matters! Since he's unwilling to ask for help, I can only take the initiative." Diana said lightly.

Cara said, "Are you regretting it, Diana?"

"Is he worth it?" Diana heard this and could only respond with indifference, making even Cara feel uninterested.

Diana's gaze couldn't help but turn towards the peak of Sky Hill. She said coldly, "Even if there is a man who can marry me, he must be a towering figure like Oliver!"

Michelle nodded repeatedly on the side. In her opinion, Ethan, this lazy prison guard, was not worthy of Diana.

‘If Miss helps Ethan solve this matter, together with the favor I've done before, it will add up to two matters... I guess Ethan won't have the face to pester Miss again!’ Michelle thought to herself, then hurriedly fetched Diana's military uniform and carefully placed the two shiny golden stars on her epaulettes.

At this moment, the Smith family was as silent as death, without a trace of sound.

Robert sat on the sofa, smoking almost half a pack of cigarettes. His throat was already on fire, but he couldn't stop for a moment.

Jane, who was sitting beside him, wiped her tears and reproached, "I told you not to marry Bernice to that useless Ethan. He always causes trouble!"

"He offended the people from Dragon Chamber of Commerce earlier and now he's provoked some important person from New York. And Mr. Jones was the one who introduced Bernice to him..."

"Wife, what should we do? What should we do?!" Robert coughed continuously from the smoke and looked at his wife with a bleak expression, sighing softly.

Bernice also glared angrily at Ethan and despairingly said, "Are you satisfied now? You've dragged our whole family down with you. I hope you're happy!"

Ethan, on the other hand, remained calm and said lightly, "Uncle, Aunt, and Bernice, just trust me. Everyone will take responsibility for their actions, and I will handle Eric."

Jane immediately exploded like a lit fuse and shouted, "What is your plan to deal with it? Who do you think you are? Do you think you can compare yourself to the young master of the Hawker family?"

"You're just a prison guard! Instead of repaying your debts, you came to harm the Smith family. How can there be someone like you?!"

"Divorce! You and Bernice should divorce immediately! Maybe that will give us a chance to breathe!"

Bernice despairingly said, "Mom, it's useless... Mr. Hawker has made it clear. He won't spare Ethan and he wants to bring down the entire Smith family with us. Even if we divorce now, it will be in vain. Mr. Hawker won't show any mercy!"

After saying this, tears welled up in her eyes and started streaming down.

She felt extremely unlucky. Just when her career was finally making progress, Ethan emerged as her husband out of nowhere. Not only was he powerless and without a reputation, but he was also jealous of Norton's abilities and had a penchant for causing trouble.

Now, this calamity had struck, and the entire Smith family had to suffer because of him!

"Robert, do you know the disaster you've brought upon the Smith family?!" Mason's furious voice came from the door as he and a group of Smith family relatives stormed in.

His daughter Christine also had a face full of panic and anger as she cried out, "Bernice, how could you let your useless husband offend Mr. Hawker? You've had lived a full life, but we haven't!"

"Robert, how do you plan to resolve this? I heard that the Hawker family has already sent people over..."

"Maybe his people have already disembarked in Boston!" Ethan said.

"Bernice, as the president of the Smith Group, has caused such a catastrophe. She should take her own life to appease the Smith family's anger!"

"That's right. Both of you should take your own lives immediately to apologize. We will take your bodies to the airport, kneel, and beg the Hawker family for forgiveness. Only then will there be a way out for us."

The relatives of the Smith family were furious and terrified. They couldn't believe that Ethan and Bernice were being asked to sacrifice their lives to apologize and quell the Hawker family's anger.

Jane started crying uncontrollably.

Bernice covered her face, trembling, tears streaming down endlessly.

At this moment, Ethan's phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was Dorothy, but he couldn't be bothered to answer.

It seemed Dorothy was also planning to inquire about the Hawker family's matters.
