“Miss, please close the window. It’s too cold outside to keep the windows ajar like that.” The taxi driver
went on to stop the car. After driving for so long, it was now time to get more gas. “By the way, where in
the world are you going?”
The driver snuck a glance at Janet in the rearview mirror. She was innocently beautiful, and the more
he looked at her, the more charming she appeared in front of his eyes.
From the rearview mirror, Janet made eye contact with the curious driver. She wrapped her scarf
around her neck and said, “Please stop at the nearest hotel.”
“Okay, let’s head out.” The driver smacked his lips together and started the engine of the car.
She was indeed a very beautiful girl and it was obvious that she had been hurt by love. The taxi driver
felt very bad for her.
The cold wind made Janet shiver in her seat. She was way calmer now.
On second thought, she knew that Ethan hadn’t done anything heinous.
He just lied to her.
If this was someone else, they might not take this matter to heart.
Janet wondered if she was being overreacted.
Ethan had now become Brandon, the richest businessman in Seacisco who started from scratch. He
had many good traits. He was not only young and promising but also handsome and rich.
She should feel fortunate to have such a husband.
However, there was one thing that Janet couldn’t wrap her mind around. Everyone around Ethan knew
about his true identity, except for her. Why didn’t he tell her? Did she even matter in his heart?
Janet didn’t want to return to “Brandon’s” villa. Ethan had also lied to her about this. It turned out to be
one of his many assets.
The driver stopped at the entrance of a chain hotel, which also happened to be affordable.
After paying the cab fare, Janet walked into the hotel.
Ethan, who had been following her, let out a sigh of relief. It was freezing outside. At least Janet was no
longer braving the cold winds outside.
He got out of his car and followed her into the hotel, in a hurry to catch up to her.
“Give your manager a call.”
This chain hotel also happened to be one of the properties that Ethan had invested in.
When the hotel manager caught sight of Ethan, he came over right away with a flattering smile. “Mr.
Larson, it’s so late at night. What can I help you with?”
Ethan’s eyes were locked on the woman who had just walked into the elevator. “I want you to arrange
the room opposite hers for me.”
***
Holding the room card in her hand, Janet swiped the card and opened the door wearily. She was
obviously worn out by the events of the day. The moment the door was opened, she heard a sound
coming from the opposite room.
Janet looked back subconsciously and before she knew it, her eyes were looking into Ethan’s deep
ones.
Ethan fixed his gaze onto her. He wanted to say something but stopped after thinking things over. At a
loss for words, his hand frozen in mid-air. He somehow managed to squeeze a few words from his thin
lips. “Janet, I…”
With a snort, Janet turned back and proceeded to march into her room as if she hadn’t seen him at all.
She slammed the door closed in front of Ethan’s face.
And just like that, a door seemed to isolate their two worlds.
After hesitating for a good while, Ethan made his way to the door of Janet’s room.
He wanted to start knocking on the door, but he was afraid that he might say something wrong to make
Janet even more upset. After all, he wasn’t that good at coaxing girls.
But if he used some sort of tough method, the result would be the exact opposite.
At the same time, Ethan didn’t want to leave either. His tall body leaned against the wall and his eyes
were covered with layers of unreadable emotions. He simply stood outside the door the entire time.
Lying on the bed, Janet fixed her gaze on the closed door. Upset, she tossed and turned all night,
unable to sleep a wink.
It was not until early in the morning that she finally closed her eyes and was able to take a nap.
When she opened her eyes again, the sun was shining brightly into the windows.
With bags underneath her eyes, Janet proceeded to brush her teeth and wash her face, mulling it over
in her head whether she should go to the company later.
Even if she had some setbacks in her love life, she still had a job to get to and a lot of things were still
waiting for her at the company.
She opened the door with her coat in her arm and bumped into the man, who was standing outside her
door.
