Chapter 107 Grounded
Chapter 107 Grounded
Belle Ye thought the reason why Ethan rejected her was May Ning because he thought she would do something to May again...Thinking of that, bitter spread in his mouth.
Ethan changed the subject.
“Anything you want to eat from Yoyo Lin’s restaurant can be done here by my cook. And if you’re boring, I...Um...I’ll bring you some books.” He almost said he would get off work early to accompany her.
“No.”
She ended the conversion with a cold tone, and being aware of the change in her mood, Ethan felt down, too.
Was she really bored here?
Ethan remembered that Belle used to like coming here. Even many of the flowers and grass in the yard were planted by her in person back then.
“When you’re convenient, if you still want, you can visit the Dungeon.”
Belle ye was surprised to his change.
“Only by the day.” Ethan added soon.
Though a place like the Dungeon was open during the day, no customers would be there, while for Belle that was better than being a prisoner here.
Ethan noticed her expression was getting brighter.
He would never give up on monitoring her, but he also knew that pushing her too hard would only get the opposite effect.
Belle walked for a while, and she started to feel that her body was about to fall apart because of the ache. Ethan sent her back and then rushed back to the company for a meeting, and then another meeting followed.
He was busy, which anyone could see, but recently his employees often found no sign of him in the company and his absence of several meetings.
They were guessing that their boss was occupied by a romantic relationship recently, and there was evidence for this guess, for example, today.
In his office, Ethan Mo was dealing with a pile of documents that was delayed for many days, and he didn’t even raise his head when his secretary told him a visitor was coming. It was not until May Ning’s dulcet voice came into the office, that he reacted.
“May, you came.”
“I’m here to deliver.” A bright smile was on May’s pretty face, and with a light yellow skirt, she looked sweet. When she opened the thermal container in her hand, and the fragrance of the meal filled the office at once.
“Hungry? I’ve cooked for you. Let’s eat together, shall we?” She showed the dishes and soup to Ethan. Not many dishes but it looked very flavorful.
“You just recovered. Comparing with cooking, I’d be more pleased if you stayed at home to rest.” He looked at her gently but left the chopsticks untouched.
“I’m fine. See? It’s just cooking. It won’t hurt. Come on, Have a try. You’ve never tasted my cook before.”
Never?
That reminded Ethan of that woman. He never took one bite on her cook, too.
“You eat, may. I’ve got some documents to deal with.” Ethan rubbed his eyes and looked exhausted.
“Alright, but Ethan, I want to go back to college.”
“Yeah?” Ethan raised his head again. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
“Too many good years of my life wasted, and I didn’t even have a college diploma. Now I want to go back to college to make it up.”
She was only graduated from high school when that accident happened to her.
“That’s a good thing. I’ll tell Barry to find the best college for you. What major do you want to choose?”
“Jewelry design.”
“Jewelry...” Ethan frowned. Someone used to mention this major to him but he could not remember who and when.
“Please?” May put on a poor yet adorable look.
Ethan could never say no to that face, so he nodded his head after he thought for a few seconds and did not find anything inappropriate.
But he did not notice a strange hint of a smile crossed May’s eyes after he agreed.
“Okay, I guess I’ll be interrupting your date with these documents if staying here. See you after work then.” May stuck her tongue out at Ethan and smiled before getting up to the door.
“I’ll walk you out.” They left the office together and many people saw this scene.
“Holy moly! That’s the future Mrs.Mo?”
“I can’t believe Mr. Mo’s into this type.”
“Tell me about it.”
“Lower your voices guys. You don’t want our boss to fire us, right?”
“Someone told me who that girl is, so I could...”
Ethan turned around of a sudden and glanced about the hall. Feeling the drop in temperature, people stopped talking immediately.
...
Thanks to his assistants, the information of Nathan Luo’s back was limited only among a few big families in Gang City.
While Ethan Mo knew that much earlier than the others, and except that, Ethan knew exactly why he was back at this time.
Yet Belle Ye met Ethan first instead of Nathan.
And Ethan was going to make sure Nathan would not meet her ever again.
Compared with Yoyo Lin and Levi Song, Nathan Luo was the only enemy Ethan would treat carefully.
“Spread the word that Belle Ye left Gang City.” Ethan told Barry Mo.
“Will he bite? That Nathan Luo?”
“It doesn’t matter. I just want to distract him. Nathan would chase her to outer space for just a tiny possibility.”
Hearing his explanation, Barry nodded his head, and after a call, the order was passed.
“What about the Song family? Some news recently?”
“Yes.” Barry paused a second to think and then continued. “It was said Levi Song had been grounded.”
