Mia Carter felt apologetic, but she had to prioritize the bigger picture. She turned and walked toward the exit of the ballroom.

In the crowd, the man who stood head and shoulders above the rest suddenly shifted his gaze, landing on her smooth, slender back.

He recognized her instantly.

She had come here with Jaxon Rivers.

Ethan Hale’s face darkened perceptibly.

The people talking to him suddenly felt a chill run down their spines, and they stopped mid-sentence. Following his gaze, they only saw Jaxon.

Everyone knew Ethan and Jaxon were rivals, and it seemed the rumors were true. They just hadn’t expected Ethan to look so furious just from seeing Jaxon’s face.

“Excuse me for a moment.”

Ethan set down his glass and walked toward the window.

The ballroom was on the third floor, designed with an open atrium that allowed a clear view of the first-floor lobby. After leaving the ballroom, Mia emerged from the elevator and sat on a sofa in the lobby.

Through the glass, her figure was exceptionally clear. Ethan’s eyes drifted to her, seemingly unable to look away.

The “click-clack’ of high heels echoed behind him, stopping short. He retracted his gaze and turned sideways.

‘Ethan, I’ve never met anyone as heartless as you.”

Serena Woods stood behind him, her face flushed with indignation. “You’ve already driven Chloe away in tears, and you won’t even go and comfort her? You two are about to get married! How could you treat her like this?”

Ethan’s eyes were cold. “Are you really so bored that you have to interfere in other people’s business?”

‘Chloe and I are close! I’m standing up for her because I think she deserves better!”

Serena took a step forward, ready to argue. She wanted to tell him about the two years they spent abroad-how Chloe couldn’t go a single sentence without mentioning his name. She had seen Chloe’s notebooks, filled cover to cover with “Ethan Hale.”

But then, her eyes caught sight of Mia on the first floor, and she recoiled.

“Her again? She’s bold enough to use her pregnancy to taunt Chloe, and you’re letting her! You’re both bullying Chloe!”

Serena’s voice was loud, causing people nearby to turn and stare.

Under the public scrutiny, Ethan’s face turned terrifyingly dark. “You’re overstepping. Before you poke your nose into other people’s affairs, make sure you actually know what’s going on.”

He didn’t want to engage with someone as irrational as Serena here.

However, as he turned to leave, Serena turned toward the crowd.

‘Everyone knows Mr. Hale, right? The heir to the Hale family in Northbrook. He’s about to marry my dear friend, the Bennett family’s heiress, Chloe Bennett.”

She spoke as she walked, picking up a glass of red wine from a nearby table before circling back to Ethan.

‘I’d like to congratulate you on your upcoming marriage in advance. But as Chloe’s best friend, I have one question for you.”
