‘Why do you care so much?”

Miranda Hale stood up, grabbing her bag. “Leo, if you value your career, you’d better keep this investigation quiet. Not a word to Ethan. If you talk… I have plenty of ways to get you fired from Bayview. Even Ethan won’t be able to protect you!”

With that, she turned and swept out of the room.

Leo Martinez knew that Ethan had protected Mia Carter from her before. However, he had a sinking feeling that if things truly turned ugly and Miranda demanded his head, Ethan might not step up to save him.

He furrowed his brow, caught in a tangle of hesitation and anxiety.

Before he could decide whether to tell Ethan, he instructed his subordinates to continue the investigation. He needed to make sure they secured hard evidence first.

Ethan Hale seemed to exist everywhere in Mia Carter’s world, like an invasive force.

The frustrating part was that it was never Ethan himself, and it was never a direct confrontation.

Mia was starting to feel numb to it all.

But no matter how numb she felt, her logic told her that if she didn’t find a “father” for the child in her belly soon, he harassment would never stop.

She pushed Toby’s stroller back toward the apartment, her mind wandering.

She didn’t realize the stroller had stopped until she nearly bumped into it. She snapped back to reality.

axon Rivers was crouching in front of the stroller, dangling a little rubber duck in front of Toby, teasing the boy.

Where do you keep getting all these toys?”

¿very time Mia passed this spot with Toby and ran into Jaxon, he somehow managed to produce a new toy out of hin air.

axon patted Toby on the head and stood up to look at her. “I bought a whole crate of them. I originally planned to ;ive them to my godson, but since you haven’t given birth yet, I might as well give them to this little guy.”

Even when I do give birth, the baby won’t be able to play with these for a long time. You might as well just give hem all to Toby.”

Mia pushed the stroller to the edge of some steps and sat down so she was eye-level with Toby. The little boy was currently preoccupied with his new rubber duck.

No way. I hand-picked every single one of those. Giving him a few is already generous enough.”

axon sat down beside her. “Was that Ethan’s mother just now?”

Mia glanced at him sideways. “You recognize her?”

That woman has the face of a strict principal. I’d recognize her even if she were turned to ash.”

Very

Jaxon rubbed his nose. “I heard a bit of your conversation. I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop, but she was shouting.”

This was Everett, and the apartment complex wasn’t exactly a hub for the high-society elite. Miranda hadn’t bothered to lower her voice at all. Anyone passing by could have heard her.

Mia shook her head. “I know you weren’t eavesdropping.”

‘That old lady looks sharp, so how is she getting played like a fiddle by Chloe Bennett?” Jaxon complained. “I could barely stand it. I almost rushed out to give her a piece of my mind for you.”
