What on earth had she been doing all these years? In the end, Helen had no choice but to call Ethan.

When Ethan heard that the other person was a police officer, he immediately lost his temper while he was still in the office.

"Officer, could you hand over the phone to Helen, my wife? I have something to say to her."

Ethan tried her best to suppress his anger. When he heard Helen's submissive voice from the other side of the phone, he exploded. "Are you stupid?! Why did you go to that damn girl Melody when you had nothing to do?"

"I... I didn't come here on my own volition. Wendy sent me here!"

Helen felt convicted. She had given so much to this family, but in the end, both Wendy and Ethan felt that she was a burden.

"How old is Wendy, and how old are you? You're already old! Can't you tell the difference between right and wrong? Did I not remind you not to go to Melody when you were at home yesterday?

"We've severed ties with Melody, so why on earth are you still looking for her? Do you not feel disgraceful to end up at the police station? What do you do to the Sutton family?"

"I don't want to damage the family. Your daughter asked me to do this! Do you think it is possible for me to decline her request? Do you really not know that she's always wanted to be above me, after all these years? If you really care about me, you'll know the kind of dilemma I've faced!

"Whenever I'd reject any of her requests, she'd cry and say that she wanted to find her biological mother. Did you know how much I endured it over all these years?

"I've known for a long time that if I fail to satisfy her, she'll come to you and cry. do you think I can still decline her request?!"

Helen covered her face and cried, and the police officer opposite basically understood the family dynamic.

However, she never expected that the mother in front of her would do such a ruthless act to her biological daughter, only to please her adopted daughter. It was absolutely ridiculous. Ethan also fell silent, one induced by guilt.

It was not that he was unaware of the undercurrents in his family, but he, the head of the family, chose to remain silent. He believed that these small matters did not need to be solved by himself. Besides, if he needed to step forward for such a trivial matter, what did he need Helen for?

"I've had enough. You said that I can be a housewife and not need to go out to work. I can just stay at home and be a full-time wife. But do you know what I have to go through? "Wendy knew how to manipulate me, even when she was still so young. I had been doing this for so many years, but only now do I realize that I was wrong.

"My own daughter is now admitted to the hospital because of me. Ethan, do you not have a conscience?"

The man opposite was silent for a moment. Eventually, the police officer took the phone. Helen was heaving so much that she could not even say anything if it was handed to her. "Mister Sutton, please come to the police station when you are free. Your wife is not emotionally stable right now, and we need to work with your family on some follow-up matters." Ethan covered the receiver and hid in a corner when others were not paying attention. He asked carefully, "Do I have to go there in person? Can I send a lawyer there?"

The officer looked confused. "It would be more convenient if a family member could come in person. But if you insist not to come forward and let a lawyer represent you, it is feasible."
