The Wrong Father
On the night before our engagement party, my fiancé's childhood sweetheart sped through the venue grounds in a luxury car while heartbroken, hit an elderly man, and fled the scene.
Ethan immediately postponed the party and took the panicked Mia overseas to help her relax.
Before leaving, he transferred five hundred thousand dollars to me.
"Five hundred thousand should be enough to buy your father's life. As long as you don't cause trouble for Mia, we'll continue with the celebration after I return."
Confused, I looked at my father beside me.
The renowned don of the McKenna family was sitting there perfectly unharmed, frowning in dissatisfaction over Ethan's decision to cancel the party without permission.
Just then, I received a message from Mia with a video attached.
[Ethan found out the person I hit was your father and still chose to protect me and pay for your father's life.]
[A nouveau riche's daughter thinks she can marry into the Alvarez family? Take a good look at your father's condition. This is what happens when people like you dare to dream.]
I opened the video and widened my eyes in shock.
With a malicious smile, Mia slammed on the accelerator, drove over the old man's legs, and sped away.
The poor elderly man lying in a pool of blood and groaning in pain was Ethan's father.
