‘Get out, Ethan muttered, his thin lips barely moving.
Leo shifted slightly but didn’t leave. “Do you mean out of the company or out of the office?”
Get out and go ask her.”
Ethan’s eyes were cold and sharp, his face tight with repressed rage.
Leo turned and walked out. After leaving the office, he pulled out his phone and sent a ‘OK’ to Jaxon Rivers.
He didn’t know how Jaxon had found out they were investigating Mia’s pregnancy, but right before Leo had entered Ethan’s office, Jaxon had sent him a message.

The veins in the hand Ethan used to grip his pen bulged. His expression was grim.
Do I really have to teach you how to handle a situation like this?”
Leo hesitated for a second, then turned and left without a word. He thought he understood what Ethan meant.
But five minutes later, when Ethan climbed into the car and signaled that he was coming to the orphanage too,
Leo realized he didn’t understand his boss at all.
Throughout the drive, the atmosphere in the cramped car was stifling.
Ethan sat in the passenger seat, his long legs slightly spread and knees bent. A sliver of sunlight hit his jawline. His deep, sharp eyes were hidden in the shadows, making his thoughts impossible to read.

Leo turned off the engine and got out, straightening his suit. He looked back at Ethan.
Ethan made no move to get out of the car. But his hawk-like eyes were fixed on the orphanage with a piercing
intensity.
Leo swallowed hard and headed toward the building.
Peering through the windows, he caught sight of people in one of the rooms. He walked over and knocked on the door.
Usually, no one visited the orphanage. Inside the room, Mia had been resting her eyes and bracing herself, but the
knock startled her.
‘Who is it?” Nina stood up immediately, looking at the door with suspicion.
