axon Rivers walked toward Mia Carter, standing beside her as he looked down at her. “I want to invite you to work at Riverside Corporation. Mr. Hale said he’d let you make the final decision.”
Mia’s
eyes flickered with disbelief. She looked at Jaxon and then at Ethan Hale.
Ethan stood there, unmoving, radiating an aura of absolute control over the entire room.
Although Jaxon said the choice was hers, Mia knew better. The real decision-maker was still Ethan.
Mr. Rivers, stop joking. I’m already on maternity leave.”
I value talent,” Jaxon said immediately. “If you agree, we’ll process your intake paperwork right now. You can continue your maternity leave, and I’ll pay your full salary.”
He looked dead serious. Saying this in front of everyone meant he wasn’t playing games.
Mia couldn’t understand what had happened in the few seconds she was gone.
Nearby, Serena Woods looked miserable, her eyes fixed on Jaxon.
Mr. Hale.” Mia looked toward Ethan, her voice hesitating. She wanted to know what was going on.
Ethan shifted slightly. “Mr. Rivers values talent,” he said, his thin lips barely moving. “Make your own choice. Give ne your answer at the office tomorrow.”

axon patted her shoulder. “Wait for me in the car. Give me five minutes.”
He pushed through the crowd, heading in the direction Ethan had gone.
Outside the hotel entrance, Ethan was waiting for his car. He was chain-smoking, his cigarette already halfway
gone.
“Ethan.”

Jaxon caught up to him. “A man is only as good as his word.”
Ethan pressed his tongue against his cheek, remaining silent.

“Don’t make things hard for Mia,” Jaxon added, worried Ethan might change his mind when Mia went to see him
tomorrow.
Ethan’s cold, murderous gaze swept over him. “Get lost.”
Jaxon didn’t get angry; instead, he laughed. He knew Ethan was fuming.
But the irony was that despite the rage, that one “Get lost” was a confirmation of his promise.
