Chapter 503 $398%! At the sound of Quinlee's voice, Ethan regained his composure and slowly lowered the knife. Just then, a bead struck the back of Ethan's hand, making him wince and reflexively raise the knife.

"Bang." A gunshot echoed through the chaos, the bullet striking Ethan's heart.

As Ethan collapsed with a thud, chaos erupted once again, screams filling the air. Nearby, Jason, who had remained seated, discreetly withdrew the beads from his hand.

Just then, police cars sped to the entrance. Alex raised his hands without a word, allowing the officers to place handcuffs on him. In that moment, an unexpected peace washed over him.

He glanced back at his parents and then toward Ellie. Then he was escorted away by the police in plain sight of the crowd. After Alex was taken away, Layton and Nalani's wedding quickly cto an end.

Barry took Alex's parents back to the Warren Manor. Aaron was rushed to the hospital, where Ellie stayed by his side.

When Patrick and Winnie emerged from Aaron's hospital room, Winnie couldn't suppress her curiosity. "Darling, I clearly saw Alex lower his gun. Why did he pull that trigger?" Patrick embraced his wife and skillfully maneuvered around a nurse's cart. “Quinlee tried advising Ethan to gather himself, but Jason's bead struck Ethan's hand, causing him to raise the knife. That caused Alex to pull the trigger." Winnie tightened her grip around Patrick's arm. "Jason seems charmingly pleasant, yet he has deep plans hidden beneath the surface." "Without a good deal of insights and guts, how could he hold a position of power?" Patrick opened the car door for his wife. "In a scene with so many witnesses, over a hundred reporters, and members of the royal family present, if Alex fired directly, it would have been seen as murder, with no way to escape consequences.

"But since Alex let Ethan go once, his action fell under self-defense. Even if he faced judgment, the consequences could be less severe. I hope you get that, my dear." Patrick stood patiently at the car door, looking affectionately at his wife until she nodded in understanding, and then he finally got in the car.

Meanwhile, back at the Thompson residence, Whitney handed Jason a robe and asked, "Darling, how did you know that Alex would shoot?" Jason removed his bathrobe to reveal his strong physique and replied, "Even though I haven't noticed any outstanding skills in him, he's good at seizing opportunities when they arise."

Whitney sat beside him, sighing repeatedly. "Orion died at the border trying to save you, and Carlos is also ave you, and gone If Alex goes to jail, not only will the position of the Warren family be at risk, but the Warren Group might be destroyed." "He owes Ellie a debt that must be repaid." Jason's tone was firm. "As for the Warren family's standing in Jaslands, I can't control that, but I will look after the Warren parents."

Whitney tossed a pillow at Jason.

"Ellie's icy demeanor is clearly an m inheritance from the family. While Elliema seem soft and delicate, her feelings run deep. She pined for Alex for seven years.

"She stayed true to her feelings, but after going through heartbreak, she declared she would never turn back. Even if this shot lands Alex in prison, it won't revive Ellie's feelings for him."
