Later, it was discovered that Ethan Martin was not Samuel Martin's biological son. As a result, he was not valued in the Martin family, and he appeared to be a carefree playboy.
However, this did not mean that he was incompetent; he just didn't want to make things difficult for himself and his mother. Indeed, now that the Martin family was in trouble, he was the one who stepped forward to support them.
He was very sincere. As soon as he saw Robert Thomson, he bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle: "Robert, I apologize on behalf of my sister and my mother for everything they have done to you and Emma."
Before, Robert and Ethan were good friends. They had a good rapport during their time studying abroad. For a while, Ethan had also shown a strong interest in Emma Smith. However, he didn't pursue it rationally, not wanting to ruin the friendship between them.
When Ella Martin was determined to marry Robert Thomson, Ethan didn't help his sister to scheme against Robert.
