Chapter 495 Waking up that little bastard Zackary!

"What?!"

Cornelia and Chelsea cried out in unison, both of them trembling with hatred.

They all had children. A child is a piece of flesh that falls from a mother's body, with a bond connecting the mother and child. Seeing their children being bullied, they understood how much pain a mother would feel in her heart.

Especially, Cornelia had also experienced similar things back then.

Back then, her little Zack had fallen into the hands of the bad guys.

That person, once held a long, thin needle, jabbing it mercilessly into his body, one jab after another.

At that time, Cornelia truly wished she could tear that person to pieces, she could understand Penelope's feelings.

"Mom, Aunt Cornelia, I didn't get a chance to tell you!"

Lyman was also livid, his face ashen, "Zackary forcibly took Ethan away! He let Lola take care of Ethan! The so-called accidental ingestion of excessive pesticide by Ethan must have been the doing of that poisonous insect, Lola!"

"Ethan was much smarter than other children his age, he was so smart, there was no way he could foolishly drink pesticide as if it were a beverage! At that time, Ethan was still in the hands of Lola, that poisonous creature, who knows what kind of torment she might inflict on him!"

"Ethan accidentally ingested too much pesticide?!" Chelsea and Cornelia spoke in unison, their faces both extremely pale.

Lyman had just received a call from Penelope, and he knew that nothing good could come from her falling into Dalton's hands.

He had to pester relentlessly to get Penelope's whereabouts from one of Dalton's confidants. He was in a great hurry, bringing the just-awakened Chelsea to rescue her. On the way, he only mentioned that he had a nephew named Ethan, but did not tell them about the events of the recent days.

"What was the deal with that jumping off the building incident?! Did Ethan jump off from upstairs?!"

Chelsea and Cornelia were both extremely anxious, and Lyman's face was still very ugly. "Mom, Aunt Cornelia, Ethan didn't fall from upstairs. I heard from Dylan, he jumped off the building. But Zackary caught him, he just fainted, there's no danger to his life."

Upon hearing Lyman say that Ethan had not fallen to the ground, the expressions on their faces did not improve much.

Having ingested an excessive amount of pesticide and just undergone a stomach wash, even without actually falling from the building, Ethan must have been feeling terrible after such an ordeal.

Moreover, Lola had even jabbed him hard with a needle, who knows what other grievances he might have suffered!

Thinking of her precious grandson falling into Lola's hands and being brutally tortured, Cornelia's heart was so pained it felt like it was shattering. She truly wished she could rush over and cut that little bastard Zackary with a knife.

Chelsea's heart was also throbbing with pain. After she woke up, she heard Lyman and Cornelia say that Penelope had already had a four-year-old child with Zackary. She was really, really happy.

Years ago, before Penelope was born, she and Cornelia often joked about becoming in-laws.

Back then, she had asked little Zack if he would be willing to marry the little sister in her belly.

Two-year-old Zack was still a little autistic creature who hardly spoke a word for months.

But that day, he looked at her belly and spoke with utmost seriousness, he said, he was willing.

It seemed as if a single word had turned into a prophecy.

Her precious daughter was really with little Zack and they even had a cute baby, Dylan.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she had a daughter, a son-in-law, and a grandson. Chelsea was truly overjoyed in her heart.

In the blink of an eye, all the joy turned into heart-wrenching sorrow.

Her precious daughter had contracted a deadly disease, her beloved grandson had fallen into Lola's hands, and was enduring unimaginable torment.

The son-in-law she had chosen was not good to her precious daughter, even though she had already borne him a child. He still only had Lola in his heart, he would only hurt her precious daughter!

Listening to Lyman's words, Dalton's face turned particularly ugly.

Before, he had believed Lola to be his and Chelsea's precious daughter, he was wholeheartedly protecting her, feeling that Penelope was extremely wicked and deserved to die.

This time, when Lola got injured, he wished he could have killed Penelope with his own hands.

He never would have thought that Penelope would lay a hand on Lola because she had cruelly hurt Ethan, and she could bear it no longer.

Ethan...

Dalton closed his eyes heavily, then slowly opened them again.

Influenced by Lola, he had also called him a lame fool.

Even, he had almost been instigated by her to lay a hand on him.

Back then, Lola told him that Penelope was shameless, using disgraceful means to get pregnant with Zack's child, yet she deliberately drove into her, cruelly killing the child in her womb.

Naturally, he couldn't bear to see Penelope bullying Lola like that. He almost hurt Ethan, seeking revenge for his so-called tragically deceased grandson.

It was Zackary who knelt on the ground, pleading with him desperately. He knelt in the rain for a day and a night. It was a moment of soft-heartedness that stopped him from laying a hand on Ethan.

Looking back now, it was fortunate that he had a moment of soft-heartedness, otherwise, he would have made an irreversible mistake.

Dalton turned his face away quietly, the more he thought about it, the more he felt ashamed to face his beloved daughter, let alone his precious grandson.

"No way! I must go and take Ethan back! Leaving Ethan in Lola's care is like a lamb to the slaughter!" The thought of her precious grandson enduring the same pain that little Zack had gone through drove Cornelia nearly mad.

"I was on my way to Silverybay Estates!"

Cornelia had originally intended to head straight for Silverybay Estates, but now, she was truly too worried about Ethan's situation. She couldn't wait that long, she thought for a moment, and decided to call Zackary first, asking him to keep Lola away from Ethan.

Soon, the call was already connected, and Cornelia almost roared as she spoke, "Zackary, where is Ethan?! Did you let Lola take care of him?! Are you trying to kill Ethan?!"

"I didn't allow Lola to take care of Ethan! Hurry up and bring Ethan to me!"

"Mommy, did that woman Penelope come to see you?! She almost killed Lola, who gave her the audacity to badmouth Lola in front of you?!"

Look at this, what the hell was this little bastard saying after all!

Cornelia was really going to be pissed off!

"Zackary, I'll say it again, I won't allow Lola to take care of Ethan! Otherwise, I disown you as my son!"

Pausing for a moment, she continued, panting, "Your Aunt Chelsea has already woken up, Penelope is her biological daughter, Lola is a liar, she..."

Zackary hung up the phone directly.

Cornelia was so angry that her chest heaved violently, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.

She knew, that little bastard definitely didn't believe her words. After all, it was her who had said not long ago that Chelsea wouldn't wake up, that she would be a living dead for the rest of her life.

She didn't plan to waste her time calling this little jerk anymore, she directly asked Chelsea to call him, to knock some sense into this little jerk's thick skull with facts!
