Howard raised his head arrogantly as if he didn't want to talk to her at all.
However, he heard Annetta continue, "Unfortunately, I, an insignificant woman, can sit and act like a spoiled child with your master and feed him food. You can only kneel on the ground and watch me."
After Annetta had finished speaking, she couldn't be bothered to look at Howard's angry face and walked to the study in a good mood.
She pushed open the door and habitually poked her little head into the room. She saw the man answering the phone by the French window. His back was tall and straight, his body was slim, and he had an extraordinary temperament.
Annetta discovered that, in this life, she always found her future husband handsome no matter which angle she looked at him. She would sometimes sneak a peek at him when they worked together in the study and would stare at him and daydream because he was so good-looking.
Ethan ended his call and saw a small head at the door, staring at him dazedly.
Ethan's mood suddenly improved. He waved at her and said, "Come here."
The girl snapped out of her daze, and her cheeks flushed with an imperceptible blush.
She trotted past the door and said with a smile, "Ethan, have you finished your call?"
The man grunted, sat on the sofa and said in a low and clear voice, "Come here."
As soon as Annetta approached, the man reached out and pulled her into his arms.
The originally dissipated blush on Annetta's face immediately came back and spread all the way to the tips of her ears.
The man wrapped his arms around her waist and fondled her hand. He asked, "You have something to tell me?"
Annetta discovered that... this man really knew everything!
Annetta was speechless as she thought, "So he already knew everything? But even if he knew everything, could he not be so straightforward? I feel shy now."
Annetta stuck out her tongue and said, "Ethan, you are really omnipotent!"
Annetta knew that Ethan might have secretly asked Howard to investigate these things. However, she was not surprised. After all, in her previous life, Ethan supervised her every move. He would definitely know that she was secretly becoming a manager.
However, based on his response, it seemed that he was not as opposed to the notion as she had imagined.
"I'm just looking for something to do, Ethan. For example, I signed Leo into my Uncle Kevin's company, took him to an audition, and he landed the role of a supporting male lead in a film directed by a well-known director. When I think about these things, I feel a great sense of accomplishment!"
"Yes." Ethan didn't care about her sense of accomplishment at all. Compared to this, he seemed to prefer her sitting in his arms and telling him all these things.
Annetta noticed it as well. She said, "But I know how to manage myself. I will tell everyone that I'm yours, and they should not even think of hitting on me. Moreover, I'll make myself look even more ugly so that people will be disgusted every time they look at me. I'll be able to guarantee my own safety in this way!"
