Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day novel Chapter 94

Chapter 0094 

Ethan’s throat moved, his voice softening, “Are you trying to pacify 

me?” 

As he spoke, he glanced at the woman’s hand resting on the back of his own. 

Madison’s heart was racing, the beat so erratic that the metaphor of a deer prancing about hardly seemed apt. 

She couldn’t recall feeling this way even when she married Lucas. 

After a moment’s silence, Madison’s hand slipped into Ethan’s palm, her fingers intertwining with his, their hands locked together. 

“Yes,” she admitted. 

That single, concise word seemed to fill Ethan’s heart to the brim in an instant. 

He tightened his grip and, to Madison’s astonishment, lifted their hands to kiss the back of hers. 

His action was full of reverence, as if a long-held wish had finally come to fruition, suffusing him with joy. 

“So now, are we officially a couple?” Ethan asked again. 

Madison turned her face slightly away, murmuring in a low voice, “…I 

suppose so.” 

“What do you mean ‘suppose’?” Ethan took hold of her chin, turning her face toward him, insisting on her direct gaze. 

Their eyes met, and Madison was greeted with Ethan’s intoxicating smile. 

He was indeed handsome.

Even wounded and pale, he was undeniably attractive. 

“We’re boyfriend and girlfriend,” she corrected herself. 

Ethan checked the time on the new phone provided by William. 

Local time in Slandon Harbor, September 27th. 

The man who was once seething with rage was now all smiles. 

Madison couldn’t help but see him as a big kid. Before they got to know each other, she thought of him as a stately and sage scion of a noble family. 

But once she got close, Ethan’s inner purity shone through. 

He was the type of person who could be easily cheered up with a few 

kind words. 

Madison didn’t realize that this was only true for her. 

Ethan wasn’t known for his good temper, yet his tolerance for Madison was surprisingly high, sometimes even he was amazed by it 

No wonder Michael teased him about being lovesick. 

Their hands remained clasped together until the plane landed in 

Slandon Harbor. 

Now September 28th, Ethan was unsure if the documents had been delivered to the Civil Aviation Authority and asked William to drive them directly there. 

Madison noted Ethan’s change into a suit, concealing his wounds. 

Before getting out of the car, Ethan instructed, “Let William take your

back first.” 

He was about to turn away but then looked back, bending down despite the pain to caress Madison’s cheek, his voice soft and reassuring, “Don’t worry, your boyfriend will make sure you keep your wings.” 

With that, Ethan closed the car door, sweat breaking out with each step he took away. 

Madison’s eyes followed his retreating figure. 

For the first time, she knew someone was willing to go through great lengths for her. 

“Captain Madison?” William asked tentatively, “Shall we return?” 

“I’ll wait for him,” Madison said firmly. 

She would not leave Ethan to face this alone. 

“President Grant?” Deputy Director Ye was astonished at the late- 

night visit, “Aren’t you…” 

“It’s a long story,” Ethan said, spotting the document from Mukino International in Ye’s hand. 

Ethan snatched it away. 

Deputy Director Ye was speechless. 

Could he just take it like that? 

Flipping to the last page, Ethan sighed in relief, seeing no official 

stamp from the Civil Aviation Authority yet. 

Handing the document to Michael beside him, Ethan asked, “Deputy Ye, may we talk?”

Deputy Director Ye smiled, “Let’s go. 

They conversed in the office for nearly an hour, the specifics unknown to everyone, even Michael. 

By the time they emerged, both men were smiling. 

Outside, Ethan shredded the document before Deputy Director Ye’s eyes, tossing it in the trash. 

Deputy Director Ye, still cheerful, offered a parting courtesy, “Take care, President Grant. We should have tea when you’re free.” 

“Agreed.” 

Stepping out of the Authority building, Ethan stood motionless, his forehead slick with sweat, his left leg trembling slightly. 

After a few seconds, he took a step, but pain in his leg caused him to buckle, and he began to fall down the steps. 

Michael reacted quickly but could only grab the edge of Ethan’s jacket before losing his grip. 

As darkness closed in, Ethan braced himself to roll down the stairs. 

But just as his knee hit the edge of a step, before he could tumble further, a figure caught him. 

The silver-haired William, who followed hurriedly, was shocked. 

This woman’s reflexes were even faster than his? 

Madison knelt below Ethan, her hands supporting him. As their skin brushed, she frowned, “You have a fever.” 

Infection was likely, given the repeated aggravation of his wounds. 

Ethan shook his head with a smile, ‘It’s nothing. I need to go back to the office… You should head home.

Pushing himself up, he exhaled heavily. 

Seeing the worry in Madison’s eyes, Ethan wrapped his arms around her, cheek to cheek, unconcerned with the onlookers. 

In a whisper, he said, “Be good, don’t be afraid. Wait for me at home.” 

Ultimately, Madison conceded to his insistence and was driven home by William. 

At Mukino International. 

The executive office was busy, with many managers and Ethan’s secretary asked to work overnight. 

Their faces showed fatigue, but none dared to challenge Julius’s 

orders. 

After all, Ethan’s father called this man son; they were merely employees, hardly in a position to dispute. 

Only the HR and PR heads stood at the back. 

Julius frowned, “Why haven’t you two submitted the quarterly report 

With Ethan abroad and likely facing death, Julius and his mother, Charlotte, were elated all night, arriving early to seize Ethan’s office. 

Julius perched arrogantly, leg tossed over the desk, full of self- importance. 

The HR manager, a woman with neat short hair and single-lid eyes, spoke coldly, “I don’t want to.” 

The PR director, a woman with a completely different demeanor, alluring and smiling, said, “Too busy to bother with such things, please excuse us.” 

julius exploded, bloded, “Do you know who I am?” 

rector looked gentinebeaurinly.cortous, No, who are you?”
