It seemed Ethan\u2019s judgment of Charlotte had been entirely off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He turned his gaze slightly, trying to study her expression. Charlotte lowered her head and nodded, calm and composed in a way that was rare for her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo\u2026 how long do you want? Could it be\u2026 you want to be my wife?\u201d Ethan\u2019s voice drifted through the dim room after a pause.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His fingers traced down her arm with a casual, almost teasingly seductive touch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m just an ordinary person. I can\u2019t play your games, Ethan,\u201d Charlotte said, fighting the surge of revulsion in her chest. \u201cI\u2019m afraid I\u2019d end up like\u2026 your former lover\u2026 shattered to pieces.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m talking to you. Don\u2019t bring others into this,\u201d Ethan said, his tone cold, the earlier looseness around him vanishing at her words.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He studied her for a long time-long enough that Charlotte thought he might have seen through her act. But in the end, he simply let go of her hand, leaned back in his chair, and finished his tea in one long swallow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s go,\u201d he said, standing with a slight stagger. \u201cWalk me back.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Watching his unsteady figure move away, Charlotte finally picked up her phone and ended the recording. Not a single useful piece of information had been captured-Ethan\u2019s defenses were just too strong.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But she was patient. One day, she would make him fall, lose everything he wanted\u2026 and at that moment, every misdeed he had committed would be repaid with regret and despair.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Two days later.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Southwest border of Felanche, mountainous region, evening.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick had been busy all day. He\u2019d only managed a brief call with Khloe at noon. The drive from the mountains back to the hotel took over an hour, and worried it might get too late, he had found a quiet corner to make a quick video check-in with her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had planned three video calls that day, but in recent days, fragmented calls and messages had been constant. Nick contacted her whenever he had a spare moment. Even Lenny noticed: whenever Nick reached for his phone, it was always Khloe on his mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was hard to tell. The workaholic, who usually had eyes only for business, had turned into a hopeless romantic the moment he got married.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Today, Nick was in a good mood. For once, Khloe could see a genuine smile on his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
All the business matters were nearly wrapped up. Tomorrow morning, after attending the final ribbon-cutting ceremony, he would finish his assignment and be ready to return.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing this, Khloe brightened immediately and urged him to tell her the return schedule-she wanted to go pick him up.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But the exact return time was still uncertain. There would be a promotional shoot in the morning. If it went smoothly, he could return by the afternoon; if not, it could be much later.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick didn\u2019t want to keep Khloe waiting. Yet, in the video, her resolve was clear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo matter how late it is, I want to see you as soon as possible,\u201d she said firmly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Softness flickered in Nick\u2019s eyes. Before he could reply, Lenny came up beside him, seemingly needing something.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe, ever thoughtful, said, \u201cIt\u2019s dark, and the mountain roads are dangerous. You should head back to the hotel first.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d Nick paused, hesitating for a moment before calling her name once more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHmm?\u201d Khloe looked puzzled.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing,\u201d he said after a brief pause, his voice deepening. \u201cRest early tonight. I\u2019ll contact you again tomorrow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
11\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After hanging up, Nick cast a slightly annoyed glance at Lenny. In the distance, Michelle\u2019s team was already arranging the set. Night shooting awaited, and if it ran too late, it would be difficult to film. Lenny\u2019s reminder\u00a0<\/p>\n
was necessary.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though Michelle accompanied him on this trip, the past two days, they had worked separately. Nick hadn\u2019t seen her since. But tomorrow morning\u2019s ribbon-cutting and interviews would involve her fully. Interaction was inevitable.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick had almost mentioned this to Khloe, but the words felt forced on his tongue. More importantly, he didn\u2019t want her to feel even the slightest unease.\u00a0<\/p>\n
