Just like Mrs. Herd said, in Ethan Herd's heart, his father had died, too—many years ago.
For Ethan, the concept of a "biological father" simply did not exist in his world!
Ghiovani Herd really wanted to beat Ethan to death, but he did not dare to do anything in front of the police; he could only watch helplessly and grit his teeth in anger.
The police asked Flora Irving to continue speaking. She trembled and said, "Later… we were both kidnapped… and he just… he just… ah…"
Flora Irving began to scream while hugging her head, squatting on the ground with her body shaking like a sieve,
As if recalling the most terrifying and unbearable meeting, that performance, that act, was simply... impeccable, as if it were really happening.
Flora Irving narrated what happened during the "kidnapping," especially when Ghiovani Herd, to save his own life, forced her to sleep with Andrew Martin, the 'kidnapper.' Her face turned ashen, and she looked like a zombie, a walking corpse.
