It’s already being investigated,” Ethan said as he strode past. He flicked a glance at Mia but didn’t stop as he entered his office.

Miranda paused and glared fiercely at Mia. “This is all your fault!”

Mia remained expressionless.

Whether it was her fault or not, Miranda always had something insulting to say whenever she saw her. She was used to it by now.

Seeing that Mia wasn’t even flustered by her glare, Miranda’s anger spiked. However, she followed Ethan into the office and immediately brought up Chloe.

You left Chloe all alone in Asteria?”

Ethan sat down at his desk. “She has things to do. She can’t come back yet.”

Miranda was dissatisfied. “She’s a young woman. How can you be okay with leaving her there?”

She lived abroad for two years. She was fine then.” Ethan looked up at Miranda. “If there’s nothing else, please

eave. I have work to do.”

He dialed the internal line. “Prepare a summary report on the Government Partnership Initiative. I want it before he end of the day.”

Mia replied, “Yes, sir.”

Miranda left.

When Ethan said “before the end of the day,” he meant Mia couldn’t leave until it was done.

Fortunately, Mia had been preparing those documents ever since the trouble started.

An hour later, she delivered the files to Ethan’s office.

Mr. Hale, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”

Ethan took the files, his eyes showing clear signs of exhaustion.

He hadn’t had a chance to adjust to the jet lag after arriving in Asteria before he had to take Chloe to the hospital, ollowed by a long standoff. Then he had rushed back to Northbrook overnight. He hadn’t slept in over twenty

hours.

‘Mr. Hale, the directors have been dealt with. The rest of the work isn’t urgent,” Mia reminded him softly.

Ethan flipped through the files. Without looking up, he asked, “Why was Jaxon Rivers looking for you?”

If he hadn’t brought it up, Mia would have forgotten.

Jaxon had claimed that Ethan wasn’t marrying Chloe out of love.

Her clear, dark eyes fixed intently on Ethan’s face. She found herself searching for even a trace of a clue on his

features.

The office was as bright as day. Ethan kept his head slightly lowered; his bone structure was so perfect he didn’t have a single bad angle.

Suddenly, the phone to the man’s right rang.

It was a call from the Bennett family.

Ethan massaged his brow as he answered, leaning back in his chair.

Whatever the person on the other end said caused Ethan’s face to darken further.

‘I’m sorry. It was my oversight. I’ve caused trouble for the Bennett family as well. I will personally bear all the losses.”

Mia quietly backed out of the office.

How could he not be marrying Chloe for love?

In this world, what could possibly force Ethan Hale to do anything he didn’t want to do?

A dull ache throbbed in Mia’s chest. It wasn’t fatal, but it was suffocating.

She packed her things and left the company.

The moment she was gone, Leo Martinez entered Ethan’s office.

Mr. Hale, this is the execution-level plan from the Public Relations Department.”

Earlier, Mia had shown Ethan a plan on how to verbally clarify the rumors and salvage the company’s reputation.
