Even Ethan himself didn\u2019t fully understand why he found himself confessing his true feelings to someone like Charlotte. Yet, in her presence, he inexplicably felt at ease.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019ll get what you wish for, Ethan.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte\u2019s voice was soft. She looked at him, a faint smile tugging at her lips, as she thought, \u2018Yes, no one is truly innocent. Not you, Ethan. And certainly not me-the one who would soon make you pay.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
Noticing he\u2019d drunk too much, Charlotte reached out and removed the wine glass from in front of him, replacing it with a cup of steaming hot tea. She leaned closer, her voice unusually gentle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEthan, you\u2019re a little drunk. Drink some tea and take it slow.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan\u2019s gaze, bleary yet sharp, locked on her. Abruptly, he grasped her wrist. His palm was hot.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte didn\u2019t pull away. She let him hold her, leaning slightly forward in response.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBunny,\u201d Ethan murmured, \u201cyou seem to have a lot of questions today.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t realize that the nickname he had reserved for that special girl in his heart had just slipped from his lips.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cReally? Maybe\u2026 it\u2019s been a long time since I\u2019ve talked like this with someone\u2026 It\u2019s late, though. Let\u2019s go back.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The scent of alcohol mixed with the woody notes of his cologne hit her as he leaned close. Charlotte frowned, her breath brushing lightly across his brow, nose, and lips.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs this a \u2018pretend to resist\u2019 routine? Charlotte, I\u2019m interested in you. You don\u2019t need to test me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He narrowed his eyes, pausing mid-sentence as if weighing his words. Counting on his fingers, he finally held up three.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you\u2019re willing to sleep with me, I\u2019ll\u2026 consider a three-month arrangement. Longer than I ever spent with many heiresses. Think about it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His drunken words were accompanied by the firm, deliberate rubbing of her slender wrist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte had never been able to lie; her resistance and her closeness were both obvious. Every little move she made revealed her intentions, and nothing was hidden from him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yet yesterday, she had kept him at arm\u2019s length, and today she was suddenly showing goodwill. It seemed like a trap.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Ethan? He had never feared traps in love.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte lifted her eyes to meet his, catching the drunken, probing look in them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The private room was bathed in warm, dim light, casting shifting shadows across his sharply defined face. And yet, at that moment, Charlotte\u2019s gaze was no longer timid or evasive-it was sharp, calculating, like a hunter appraising its prey.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She quickly withdrew her hand. \u201cEthan, you\u2019re joking. How could someone like me\u2026 even compare to you? I just\u00a0<\/p>\n

hope you won\u2019t target me, and that you\u2019ll leave Khloe alone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat if I said I\u2019d try not to trouble Khloe anymore?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan didn\u2019t release her wrist, grabbing her slender arm instead. Even if it was the classic \u201cpush-pull\u201d routine, he thrived on it. He had tasted every delicacy in life, yet sometimes, the most satisfying treats were the ones hardest to obtain.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t take your word at face value,\u201d Charlotte said softly, her voice low and gentle, though subtly different from before.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan, emboldened by alcohol, chuckled. \u201cHow will you know if you don\u2019t try? I\u2019m sincere with my woman. From off the bed\u2026 to on it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He leaned closer, whispering the last words into her ear, hidden behind strands of her hair.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlotte had no affection for him; his words, suggestive and provocative, only made her uneasy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYour sincerity\u2026 is just a three-month arrangement?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ethan froze, momentarily taken aback.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In his expectations, someone like Charlotte-the innocent, na\u00efve little rabbit-would either refuse in embarrassment or give in hesitantly. That push-pull was part of the fun.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he hadn\u2019t anticipated this. She was neither submissive nor flustered; instead, her words carried a calm, measured tone, even suggesting terms.\u00a0<\/p>\n
