*Bang!”
Cole had just taken off his white coat when the office door was kicked open.

He looked toward the sound, but before he could even see who it was, a sharp slap landed squarely on his face.
‘Smack!
‘Cole Preston, you better stay away from Ethan!”
Chloe pulled out the photo of him and Ethan from the night before and shoved it in his face. “If you ever meet him alone again, I won’t let you off!”
A deep red handprint bloomed on Cole’s pale face.
He tilted his head, his sharp features defined in the dim light. A flash of gloom suddenly surged in his eyes.
He turned his icy gaze toward Chloe.
‘Chloe Bennett, did you forget what I told you?”
Meeting his eyes, Chloe’s bravado withered significantly.
But she steeled herself and snapped, “I think you’re the one who forgot! Do you have any idea how much you disgust me? I-”
Before she could finish, Cole pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
The faint sound of the line ringing filled the room.
Chloe immediately lowered her voice. “What are you doing? Who are you calling? You-”
Speak.
The call connected. On speakerphone, Ethan’s voice was crystal clear.
Chloe fell silent instantly.
There seems to be a problem with Chloe’s previous medical report,” Cole said in one breath. “I suggest you have a doctor give her a full, comprehensive check-up. If needed, I can help you contact a specialist. I’m heading to your place now to talk in person.”
Cole finished speaking, grabbed his jacket from the chair, and walked straight out of the office.

Chapter 305
Before Cole Preston could hang up the phone, Chloe Bennett chased after him. She grabbed at him, struggling, but didn’t dare make a sound.
Only when Cole finally ended the call did he put his phone back in his pocket. He looked at Chloe, whose face was pale with panic as she blocked his path.
You-what good does it do to burn our bridges?” Chloe hissed. “Cole, you’ll regret this!”
‘I won’t. At most, I’ll just have a falling out with Ethan. As for my reputation, it stopped being important a long time ago,” Cole said, his voice like ice.
Hearing this, Chloe’s attitude immediately softened.
‘I was too impulsive just now. I admit I-”
‘Chloe,” Cole interrupted. “I don’t hit women. But I’m not made of paper. You owe me two slaps. You return them here today, or we’ll see what happens.”
Return them? How?
He wouldn’t hit a woman, so Chloe had to hit herself?
The words caught in Chloe’s throat. Her palm was still hot and numb from the sheer force she had used when she lapped Cole.
Half of Cole’s face was still red, and his gloomy expression made him look terrifying.
I… Chloe trembled.
f she hadn’t been holding the one thing Cole cared about most over his head, he probably would have torn her part by now!
Seeing that she didn’t act immediately, Cole moved past her toward the elevator.
ust as he was about to step inside, the sharp sound of two slaps-smack, smack*-rang out behind him.
