Chapter 265

“What did you say?”

Cole Preston’s voice was too low.

Mia Carter had already opened the office door halfway. With the noise from the hallway flooding in, she couldn’t hear him clearly..

Cole stood up and offered a polite smile. “Nothing. Have a safe trip back.”

Mia didn’t think much of it.

Cole was indeed a bit strange, but she had more pressing matters at hand. Once she left Northbrook, this connection would be severed. She wouldn’t even have to worry about the fact that Cole knew Ethan Hale.

Nodding to Cole, Mia turned and left.

The moment she was gone, Cole dialed Ethan’s number.

‘I’ve finished the physical report and sent it to your email.”

On the other end, Ethan’s voice was low and raspy, his lack of energy evident. “Got it.”

‘Do you know anyone at the hospital?” Cole asked.

‘Call Leo, Ethan replied. “He’ll arrange whatever you need.”

He didn’t even bother to ask what Cole wanted.

That works. Leo should know the name of that little girl from Mia’s orphanage. It’ll save me the trouble of digging

around.”

Cole’s words were heavy with implication.

The line went dead silent.

If that’s all, I’m hanging up,” Cole said, though he made no move to actually end the call.

What are you trying to find out?” Ethan snapped.

Mia put all her savings into treating a kid from the orphanage, but the medical bills are ridiculously high. I think he hospital is scamming her.” Cole kept it brief, adding, “She is your secretary, after all. I figured I’d offer to look into it for her.”

But since Cole had been abroad for years, he didn’t have many local connections. He couldn’t rely on the Preston family’s influence, so his only option was to ask Ethan for help.

‘If you don’t have the tools for the job, don’t take the contract,” Ethan said, his tone clearly displeased.

‘Do

you not want me involved with Mia?” Cole challenged.

‘My meaning is, next time, tell her to come find me directly.”

Ethan had laid out the path.

Cole’s eyebrows shot up. “It’s not too late. When she reaches out to me again, I’ll tell her to go to you.”

‘Goodbye.” Ethan hung up, his thumb idly stroking the screen of his phone.

He remembered that Mia had mentioned resigning more than once.

But when he finally agreed to let her go, she had stayed.

It was because she was out of money-she had spent everything on that child’s treatment.

Even without a full investigation, Ethan had already pieced most of it together.

Now, the only thing he couldn’t fathom was why Mia was hiding the pregnancy from him.

Instinctively, he felt it had something to do with him.

But it didn’t make sense.

Carly’s situation was much easier to investigate.

t only took Leo ten minutes to get his hands on Carly’s medical records and deliver them to Ethan’s office.
