Chapter 150 "How the hell should I know what I want? What did you do to piss the Graysons off? I'm telling you, you'll never see your grandmother again for the rest of your lite until you get this foed! "I've already cut off her medications. If you don't get the Graysons off my back soon, you won't even get to see her dead body!" With that, he hung up.
I stared blankdy at the phone. Once I snapped out of my daze, I frantically tried to call him back Grandma's medication supply couldn't be stopped! But no matter how many times I called, no one answered. I finally gave up after hearing the automated message for what felt like the hundredth time.

After a few moments of silence, I was the first to speak "Ethan, you won." "What?" He sounded confused.
"Don't pretend like you knew nothing. The Graysons really know how to play lay the game," I said, cutting straight to the point. "I'll drop the charges, but only if you lettake my grandmother home." ""Evelyn, I don't understand." had never heard someone sound so fake be before. How could he not know what his family was doing? "Ethan, using my grandmother to threaten me... I'll hate the Grayson family for the rest of my life."
