‘I saw it,” Mia replied, adding, “I was in a meeting all morning and haven’t had a chance to look through it yet.”
“Take a look. Let me know if you have any questions, Ethan said.
‘Okay.”
‘Look at it now.”
Before Mia could hang up, Ethan’s voice cut in again. He wanted her to read the email while he was on the line so hey could discuss any issues immediately.

Mhm.” Ethan hung his coat up himself, his expression indifferent. He bypassed Chloe and headed straight for the lining room.
Chloe’s smile faltered, but she turned and followed him.
We have several hotel options for the booking. We can split up tomorrow-my mom and your mom will look at he two in the south, while we look at the ones in the north.”
Ethan’s pace flickered for a second before returning to normal. Without a word, he rolled up his sleeves and entered the dining room.
