“No need to be nervous. The worst-case scenario is just the truth.”
Ethan caught her subtle movements, his eyes darkening. He spoke words of comfort, yet they felt cold.
Chloe quickly turned off her phone. “I… I just don’t want to be hurt again.”
She bit her lip, her panic evolving into a display of sadness.
The results might not be bad,” Ethan said tonelessly.
‘If the results aren’t bad, will our wedding still go on?” Chloe asked instinctively.
As soon as she asked, she saw a look of cold scrutiny in Ethan’s eyes.
‘I’m just trying to stay positive. I’m afraid of more news leaking and causing trouble for you,” she explained quickly.
Ethan stood tall, his sharp features handsome and cold, bathed in the morning sunlight. His indifferent gaze released a slight chill despite the comfortable temperature.
He didn’t respond to Chloe. His silence made her heart gradually sink.
Just as she was about to say something else, Leo hurried back.

‘Let her go.”
The man who had been standing with his back to them spoke up coldly.
Leo stopped in his tracks and walked back to Ethan’s side.

‘No need,” Ethan said, his voice like ice.
His narrow eyes narrowed further, turning cold and heavy as frozen glass.

Leo was confused. He looked at the fleeing Chloe, then back at the scheming, calculated look on Ethan’s face.
‘Mr. Hale, then… what do we do now?”
Ethan remained silent for a few seconds. “Go book two tickets for Everett tomorrow.”
Leo’s jaw dropped. “What? To Everett? You and me?”
Me and Cole Preston.” Ethan turned to look at him. “You keep an eye on things here in Northbrook. I’m going to Everett personally.”
