His Secret Baby: Six Months After Divorce (Mia and Ethan) novel Chapter 409

Chapter 409

Outside the hotel entrance, Ethan Hale let go of Chloe Bennett’s hand.

Taken off guard, Chloe stumbled back. She rubbed her aching wrist, her eyes flickering with anxiety as she looked it him.

Ethan, what’s wrong?”

You tell me.”

Ethan’s gaze was colder than the biting night wind as he stared her down.

Chloe’s hand dropped to her side, her fingers gripping the fabric of her dress. She tried her best to look composed.

I haven’t seen Serena in a long time, so I wanted to stay in Everett for a couple more days. You can’t control that, an you? As for the medical checkup… I’ll do it when I back.”

Ethan’s thin lips curled slightly. “Tell me. What are you planning to do to Mia Carter this time?”

A flash of embarrassment and panic crossed Chloe’s face at being exposed.

But she quickly regained her footing. “This has nothing to do with me. Mia somehow offended Serena, and Serena vants to make things difficult for her.”

The excuse she had prepared didn’t hold any weight with Ethan.

Is that so?”

He didn’t argue or call her out. He simply said, “Then go and talk Serena out of it.”

Chloe’s head snapped up. “You want me to help Mia?”

Ethan arched an eyebrow.

Ethan, I’m not that generous,” Chloe said, her voice tightening. “It’s good enough that I don’t kick her while she’s lown. I can’t help her! She’s your ex-wife. Whether it’s the current partner of an ex or the ex of a current >artner, they always want to outdo each other when they meet…”

She was speaking the truth.

Her words sent a ripple through Ethan’s heart.

Even the current and the ex want to outdo each other.”

His eyes darkened, and his brow furrowed deeply.

Fine. Then I’ll handle Serena Woods myself,” he interrupted.

Chloe’s throat tightened. She instinctively blurted out, “Serena helped me a lot when I was abroad-”

Ethan didn’t listen. He turned and walked away.

In the taxi home, Mia Carter’s eyelid twitched violently.

She pressed down on it, her heart skipping a beat in an irregular rhythm.

Her phone buzzed with a WhatsApp notification. Clinton Sterling had accepted her friend request.

A message followed immediately after.

Mia, you’ve gone too far. You’re treating feelings like a joke. You’re already pregnant and yet you’re out here eading people on? I take relationships very seriously. I’m going to your superior to demand an explanation!]

Leading him on?”

Vina Torres rolled her eyes. “Is this guy crazy? You met him once at a banquet. How is that leading him on?”

Mia had been thinking about it the whole way home, but she couldn’t understand where the word “feelings” even

came from.

Whoa, look at this. There are quite a few news articles about Clinton online.”

Nina searched for his name.
