Chapter 1629:
Jules sighed. “There's no point dwelling on it now. Josh is waiting for us. He said we're family and he’ll take care
of us. Trust me, you won't lose anything.” With that, he gave a quick nod to the driver to pull away.
However, the driver, who worked under Ethan, looked over at him, waiting for his say.
Ethan hesitated for a moment, then finally gave a reluctant nod. As the car rolled farther away, he couldn't stop
glancing back. Deep down, something told him that the decision he made today would cost him more than he
was ready for.
Jules led Ethan to Josh's place.
Waiting at the doorway, Josh flashed a broad, artificial grin. “You guys sure know how to keep someone waiting.
I've been out here forever. What took you so long?”
Jules had previously promised Josh that he would bring both him and Ethan.
“So, where's Brad?” Josh asked.
Jules filled him in on the situation.
A dark storm brewed behind Josh's eyes, his smile slipping away. “You're tellingBrad picked Daniela over us?
He went with an outsider? | thought he had brains, but clearly, | gave him too much credit!”
Turning toward Ethan, Josh dialed up the charm again. “Knew you’d make the right call, Ethan. Stick with me,
and life will get a whole lot sweeter—no more bowing and scraping. How much did you manage to walk away
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith from McCoy Group? Let's have it, and I'll put it all to good use in my company.”
A number rolled off Ethan's lips.
Displeasure flickered in Josh's eyes. “That's it? You can’t be serious.”
Ethan kept silent, swallowing the bitterness. Most of the money had already been taken by Josh, yet he had the
audacity to complain.
Only through Daniela’s sense of decency did Ethan hold on to anything at all. If anyone else had been in charge,
he might have left empty-handed.

The thought twisted inside him. Daniela’s kindness was genuine—a far cry from Josh’s scheming ways. Regret
gnawed at him, and the more he replayed it in his mind, the more he wished he’d thrown in his lot with her
instead.
He tucked away his phone, hiding his bank balance from sight. A forced smile accompanied his words. “Honestly,
it’s not much. To be honest, | feel a little embarrassed. Letsee if | can gather up more. Next time, I'll come
back with a real sum.”
He was ready to slip out when Jules caught his arm, reading the warning in Josh’s eyes. “Con, Ethan, don’t
say that. We're brothers, right? Josh would never judge you over something like this.”
Josh's grin stretched wider, more
artificial than ever. “N aural bamily
