After confronting the Turners, Ethan returned to Barnes.He reported to the police that Charis had pulled some strings to get Jeff out of jail, and had even sent them all the evidence to prove it.
But since there was no evidence tying Charis to all her other crimes, there was nothing Ethan could do.
Because Charis had paid for Jeff‘s bail, the matter wasn‘t too serious.It didn‘t take much effort for the Turner family to get Charis out of this mess.
When everything was settled, Luke spoke to Charis seriously.
"Don‘t go near Barnes again and just stay at home."
He didn‘t want the company‘s interests to be affected because of his daughter‘s selfish acts.
Although he loved his daughter very much, he knew what was more important.
Charis‘s bare, haggard face was pale and tired.She leaned back against the sofa and waved her hand dismissively.
"I know.Now that Ethan has figured it all out, I can‘t do anything anymore."
Ethan could make trouble for the Turner family with a snap of his fingers.
Charis knew that she had to be careful.
Luke nodded.
"It‘s good that you‘ve come to your senses.You‘re a Turner; you shouldn‘t degrade yourself for a man."
Charis forced a smile but didn‘t say anything.
There was another, more important reason why she couldn‘t act rashly.
Now that Ethan had found out about her vicious side, if she was caught again, he would definitely destroy not just the Turner family, but her as well.
Seeing her so depressed, Luke stopped scolding her.He thought for a while and said, "Why not come to work for me? It‘s easy for people to overthink things when they‘re idly.If you busy yourself with work, you might find a sense of fulfillment.Soon, you‘ll forget all about this fiasco."
"Okay.I‘ll start work tomorrow."
After all, Charis also didn‘t like the feeling of being cooped up at home.She was too weak now.She needed to get stronger first in order to get what she wanted in life.
As for Ethan, she believed that they would meet at the peak again one day.
