Outside the office, Maria and Ann deliberately walked past Ethan Walker's office door. They thought that once Lena Hayes entered the office, she would receive a verbal lashing from Ethan and then be kicked out of the company. However, they had passed by several times, and surprisingly, there was no hint of a commotion. The two caught each other's glance. Just as they were pondering Lena's fate, the office door suddenly swung open from inside. Out came Ethan, impeccably dressed, and in his hand was... Lena's hand? The smug anticipation in Maria and Ann's eyes as they awaited Lena's departure instantly froze. Their attention fixated on the two hands clasped together. They were completely lost for a response. At this point, Lena's emotions were completely erratic. With her hand being held by Ethan, it felt as if she was being scalded by boiling water. She felt their intense stares and struggled slightly. Ethan turned to look at her. "What's wrong?" Lena frowned, saying nothing. M

Ethan Walker pushed Lena Hayes toward Jenny, saying, "Show your sister-in-law around. She needs to familiarize herself with the place." "Have you decided? Are you going to move back in?" Jenny raised an eyebrow. Ethan did not respond. The gloom in his eyes radiated an inconceivable ferocity. Seeing that Ethan remained silent, Jenny smiled and took Lena's hand. "Leave her to me. You can go." Ethan nodded and turned to Lena. "Wait for me for half an hour, okay?" "Okay!" Lena's heart was thumping wildly. She had no idea what the situation was. Although there was no confrontation at the moment, she had been feeling incredibly oppressed since she stepped foot here. Ethan walked on, and after only two steps, Jenny shouted at his retreating figure, "Ethan!" There was pure worry in her tone. Ethan paused. He did not turn around but only replied coldly, "What?" Jenny warned in a deep voice, "Don't provoke Dad. Don't fall into traps that you shouldn't." Hearing this reminder, Lena

Ethan had a social event in the evening, and he planned to send Lena to Eclipse Court. However, Lena wanted to return to the dormitory because she had been thinking about Aria. Ever since she entered the walkers family, Aria had called her countless times. She finally got away from Ethan and immediately called Aria back. Aria quickly answered and jumped up in surprise. "Why haven’t you been answering your phone? Where are you?" "I’m downstairs at the dormitory. I was with Mr. Walker just now, so I didn’t dare to pick up the phone!" Lena responded anxiously. She was still feeling overwhelmed from the clash she had had at the Hayes family. Aria urged her, "Come up quickly." "Should I bring some food for you?" "There’s no need. I won’t be able to eat!" Aria responded. Hearing that Aria could not even eat, Lena immediately felt a sense of foreboding and rushed upstairs. Her other two roommates led vibrant night lives and were not home for the evening. Upon entering

Aria and Lena gasped!A buzz rang in their minds as if something had exploded!The word "repair" incessantly tore at their nerves.As Marcus came out of the room after pouring a cup of water for himself, he found Aria and Lena still standing where they were.With a frown on his face, he asked, "What's the matter?""Huh?" Lena snapped back to reality!Her breathing instantly became irregular.It was over. It was truly over. This time, it was completely over!Marcus said, "Take a look to confirm if this is the one."Did she really need to confirm if it was the one? Of course, it did not need to be confirmed.If there was another copy, wouldn't they have known already?Aria quickly nudged Lena, who responded to Marcus after a brief pause, "I need to use the restroom. I'll be right back!"Marcus nodded and went inside with the cup of water.When it was just Lena and Aria left, they looked at each other and saw, even in the low light, that their faces were as pale as ghosts.As Lena turned

Just as they were about to say something, Lena's phone rang. She pulled it out. It was Ethan who was calling. Lena gasped. She nervously glanced at Aria and turned around to answer the call. "Mr. Walker!" In a second, she switched to a fawning respect. Aria pursed her lips, hoping that Lena could hold up her acting skills, or else their family's prosperity and wealth would be in danger. On the other end of the phone, Ethan asked in a deep voice, "Where are you?" Lena responded, "At the company entrance!" "Stay there!" He did not ask what she was doing at the company. He just left two words and hung up the phone. Aria came up behind Lena. "Was that a call from Mr. Walker?" Lena nodded. "Yes." After what happened earlier, Lena was even more uncertain about how to face Ethan. Should she apologize first? Or should she continue to cover up with lies? Especially now that Marcus was already suspicious. Could she continue to hide this? The more she thought about

Back at the Eclipse Court.Ethan Walker and Lena Hayes got out of the car, and the driver quickly sped off. Lena initially wanted the driver to take her back to the dormitory, but as she watched Ethan's cold, noble back, she did not dare to say anything and could only sheepishly follow him.When they got home...Ethan glanced at Lena."When are you moving your things here?"Lena's heart skipped a beat!"Do I really have to live here?" She struggled with her words.She really did not want to!As she looked at Ethan, she felt quite tense. Standing face-to-face for such a long time, she was afraid that she would not hold back and start blabbing about what happened that night.A chilling glint passed through Ethan's eyes.Seeing this, Lena hurriedly nodded. "Then I'll move tomorrow."Ethan did not say anything further. He turned around, took off his coat, threw it on the sofa along with his phone, and then entered the master bedroom.Lena stood at the entrance, patted her chest, and let o

Lena's heart pumped rapidly! Feeling Ethan increasingly getting out of control, her heart grew much more terrified. "I can't, Mr. Walker!" With a forceful struggle, she broke free from Ethan's potent hold, escaping from his arms like a fleeing animal. Still somewhat drunk, Ethan fully sobered up amidst her sudden movements... The warmth in his eyes faded, only leaving their usual frostiness! Looking at her murderously, his cold gaze made Lena's chest contract, and she weakly called out, "Mr. Walker." Just the name "Mr. Walker" sobered Ethan up significantly. He commanded in a deep voice, "Go to sleep." Sleep? Upon hearing the word "sleep", Lena got even more frightened, trembling as she asked, "Sleep... Where do I sleep?" Clearly, the previous situation had scared her quite a bit. She was still somewhat in shock. Ethan listened to her silly question, the warmth in his eyes dissipating. Upon noticing her frightened expression, the corner of his lips curled up

Upon waking, Ethan Walker felt a heavy weariness enveloping his body. Noticing something odd, he pulled back the covers, and what he saw made him grimace. Damn it. Why would he have had a wet dream? Perhaps it was related to the woman from the hotel that night, he thought. There was no turning back after experiencing certain... experiences. Thinking back to that night in South City, Ethan wished he could find that woman and make sure she knew of his pain. Meanwhile, Lena Hayes, who was making breakfast in the kitchen, shivered inexplicably, followed by a hearty sneeze. It was then that her phone vibrated on the counter. Seeing that it was Mia calling, Lena answered it. "Hey, Mia." "Did you only give Leon two hundred bucks last night?" "Oh, relax, he won't die anytime soon!" Lena retorted. Leon shouldn’t have let his inflated machismo get the better of him. Now, he deserved a taste of his own medicine. Although she had helped him out of a pressing predicament, the thrill of a
