He was smart.

Smart people notice things that most others don’t. Dawn suddenly coming back and stirring up all this trouble–it was obvious what she wanted.

Besides, who was Ethan?

Would he really ignore everything for love?

Dawn didn’t believe it.

Ethan’s dark eyes met hers. After a moment, he said in a low voice, “Dawn, I want us to make this work.”

Dawn stared at the incredibly handsome man in front of her, unable to say a word.

On the way back, she kept looking out the window, replaying his words in her head.

Dawn, I want us to make this work.

What did that even mean?

Being together.

Marriage. Divorce.

From the very beginning, their mess was doomed to end badly.

Before she realized it, the car had stopped at Eastcrest Regency Residence.

Dawn blinked at the window, dazed. “Why did you bring me here?”

“From today, you’ll live here.”

Huh?

She laughed. “Mr. Jackson, since the confession didn’t work, you’re resorting to house arrest now?”

Ethan frowned. He didn’t like her half–smile, but he knew she had the right to connect the past with the present and take it out on him.

He fiddled with his fingers and said in a low voice, “You stay here. I’ll move out.”

That caught Dawn of guard.

“I’ll have someone get you a new place. Before it’s furnished and ready, you can stay here.” Ethan lifted her chin with his hand, serious and sincere. “Once you’re divorced, we’ll start

over

Whether they could start over, Dawn didn’t know.

But she knew he wouldn’t give her much time.

How could a proud, privileged man share a woman with another man? It was impossible, physically and mentally.

Having her live at Eastcrest Regency Residence was basically a way to keep an eye on her.

Staying on his turf meant no matter who came, he wouldn’t be caught off guard.

Dawn curved her lips and looked into his eyes. “Okay, Mr. Jackson. Since you’re being so sincere, it’s rude to say no. But … my husband’s not easy to deal with either. You’ll have to wait a bit.”

Her words made his strong fingers clench suddenly.

His deep eyes seemed to whirl with a storm, sweeping everything in its path.

Ethan didn’t say no, which meant he agreed.

He was willing to wait for Dawn to cut ties with Aidan.

That afternoon, he had people go to the hotel to pack Dawn’s things and move them to Eastcrest Regency Residence.

Dawn leaned on the couch, watching the housekeeper organize everything, feeling an indescribable emotion.

She was back so soon.

Every corner of this villa was filled with memories of her and him.

If Roxanne found out, she’d probably lose it on the spot.

She chuckled and picked up her buzzing phone.

“Ms. West.” Tony’s voice came through, sounding a little awkward. “We’ve got most of the situation figured out, but Lucas insists on seeing you. He says he won’t say anything otherwise.”

“He wants to see me?”

Dawn smiled coolly. “Why would he want to see me?”

“Maybe… he feels guilty?”

How would Tony know?!

All he knew was that Lucas wouldn’t even see his own wife–only Dawn.

“Okay,” Dawn said, glancing at the time. It was 4.30. “I’ll be there in half an hour.”

This was the moment she’d been waiting for.

Lucas did all those things just to avoid getting dragged down. Now the only person who could save him was Dawn. That meant … some questions would be easier to ask.

She drove to the police station.

A police officer led Dawn to the interrogation room.

Tony greeted her, and before she went in, he warned her, “Lucas seems a little unstable. Be careful.”

Dawn smiled. “This is a police station. Don’t worry. He won’t dare.”

And besides, he couldn’t.

Lucas was handcuffed and practically pinned to the chair.

When he saw Dawn, his bloodshot eyes stared without blinking, as if trying to bore a hole through her.

“You did this on purpose, Dawn.”

That was the first thing he said.

Dawn calmly pulled out a chair and sat down, looking at him. After a moment, she said, “Yeah, I did. Uncle Lucas, you’re still sharp.”

“Why?! Why are you doing this to me?!”

Lucas suddenly lost it.

He tried to break free from the chair but couldn’t move, the cuffs digging deep marks into

his wrists.

Dawn watched him coolly, her face unreadable. Doing this to you? Did you say that wrong, Uncle Lucas? Didn’t you try to kill me?”

Lucas glared at her, saying nothing.

“You didn’t just try to kill me; you also killed my another over a decade ago.”

“I didn’t!”

The denial practically slipped out before he could think.

The middle–aged man in front of her looked completely different. In just half a day, he was no longer the powerful man of the business world, but a prisoner.

Tony was right–Lucas really was unstable.
