“Sorry, I couldn’t hold back.”

Ethan quickly steadied himself. His lazy words slipped out smoothly, even as his hands habitually adjusted the edges of his suit.

His strength was formidable-Leonard’s assistant was still rolling on the floor, grunting, unable to get up.

Leonard had assumed a disturbance was underway and was about to shout for help, but then, he recognized Ethan.

“Mr. Morrison?”

Leonard had visited Morrison Group several times a year and naturally knew Ethan’s face. Seeing him there, his expression shifted-part surprise, part panic.

“F-fancy seeing you here today. Are… are you here for a meeting?”

Ethan smiled faintly, tilting his head to glance at Charlotte. “Come here.”

Charlotte clutched her clothes, hesitated for a moment, and finally slipped behind Ethan.

Though the scene was disgusting in theory, Ethan clearly enjoyed it. In his eyes, he had once again “rescued” Charlotte.

“Mr. Morrison… you and Charlotte…” Leonard’s gaze darkened slightly as he observed their interaction. Surely they couldn’t be…?

Ethan wouldn’t be dating his own employee, would he?

“Mind your own business. Don’t ask what you shouldn’t.”

Ethan’s voice was soft, but as if deliberately, he extended his hand and grasped Charlotte’s palm.

Charlotte tried to pull away, but he didn’t let go, and she was drawn firmly to his side.

“Leonard, you arranged to meet an employee of mine alone during work hours. What exactly is this about?”

Ethan’s words made Leonard shiver. He pressed his lips together, then spoke tremblingly, “I-I just… I just wanted to get to know Charlotte better.”

“You’re not young anymore, and you have a wife and children, if I’m not mistaken? Using your position to lure a junior employee out with you-if this scandal got out, you wouldn’t just be retiring early. You’d lose everything.”

Ethan snorted, glancing at Charlotte again.

Today, she looked exquisite. Her delicate face, tilted down, was framed by long lashes that caught the light. Her skin had a soft, rosy glow. Black hair fell from her cheek to her collarbone, carrying a natural scent-her hair, not perfume.

Leonard’s legs went weak. He nearly collapsed and grabbed the edge of a nearby table for support.

“Mr. Morrison! I… I apologize! My thoughts were vile! I should never have had this notion! You’re right; I have a

wife and children, and I cannot disgrace myself. I beg you, show mercy…’

Sweat drenched him, his voice shaking uncontrollably.

“You didn’t anger me; you angered her.”

Ethan pushed Charlotte slightly forward with his arm. “Apologize to her. If she forgives you, we’ll talk later.”

“Charlotte! I’m truly sorry! I shouldn’t have harassed you. I didn’t know my place! Whatever you ask, anything at all, I will do to express my apology! I will never do it again!”

Leonard immediately bowed his head, repeatedly apologizing to Charlotte, his whole body crumpled in fear.

Charlotte had no intention of dealing with someone like him, but Ethan had forced her forward, so she played along.

“Your behavior is disgusting. Today, you apologize to me-but tomorrow, if you meet a girl who can’t defend herself, you’ll just escalate, won’t you?”

Leonard had no defense. “I-I won’t! I will change! I swear!”

Satisfied, Charlotte stopped talking. Ethan also lost interest in hearing more from Leonard. He glanced at her; she looked back at him, but her gaze was slightly evasive in his presence.
