Two days later, Garrett found that Laney had left.
He had been staying in the presidential suite of the club. When he finally checked out, he went straight
to Pole Shadow to see Laney.
Only then did he find out that Laney had resigned. As for where she had gone, nobody at Pole Shadow
knew. It was as though she had vanished into thin air.
Garrett knew that if anyone knew where Laney was, it was Janet.
*******
As soon as Janet got off work, she saw Garrett’s car parked in front of W Marks Studio.
She wasn’t surprised at all, though. Ignoring the man in the driver’s seat, she started walking towards
her home.
Garrett released the brakes slightly and followed Janet. He honked several times and asked, “Where’s
Laney? I can’t get in touch with her. She won’t answer my calls. You must know where she is, right?”
Janet stopped and glanced at Garrett indifferently. “Obviously, she doesn’t want to see you. And even if
you knew where she was, what’re you going to do? Get her back? And then what? You can’t give her
what she needs, can you? So what’s the point?”
Garrett wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Janet was right.
He bit his lower lip, at a complete loss.
But even so, he couldn’t just lose Laney forever like that. He didn’t even get to say goodbye to her
before she left.
Seeing that Garrett had fallen silent, Janet sighed and softened her tone. “Anyway, you think it over. No
one can help you but yourself. If you really want to be with her, you should be prepared for a fallout with
your family.”
After saying that, Janet turned to leave. The next second, she paused and warned him, “Don’t follow
me!”
With a long face, Garrett didn’t say anything. He refused to listen to her and followed her to her house.
Seeing that she was about to enter the villa, he jumped out of the car and caught up with her. “Just tell
me where Laney is, and leave the rest to me.”
Ignoring him, Janet entered the house and slammed the door shut.
Annoyed, Garrett rang the doorbell incessantly.
Unexpectedly, it was Ethan who came to the door. “What do you want?”
Garrett was still on edge. He pointed a finger at Ethan and hissed, “I need to talk to your wife. Let me
in.”
Ethan reached out one hand to block Garrett’s way. He gave him a warning look and said, “You’re a
grown man. You have to think before you act. If you really want to be with Laney, you should get
prepared to face the consequences. Make sure that you’ll be able to protect her no matter what before
you go after her. If you can’t do that, don’t go. You’re not strong enough now. Even if Laney agrees to
be with you, you can’t protect her. In the end, you’ll only make her suffer. Is this the kind of love you
want to give her?”
After hearing what Ethan had to say, Garrett stopped in his tracks. His anger was suddenly
extinguished.
Dejected, he returned to his car with his head lowered and drove away.
The second he got home, Garrett sought solace in alcohol. He drank one bottle after another.
A few days later, he had finally calmed down.
Nobody knew how Garrett had managed to get all his ducks in a row, but one day, he went back to the
Larson Group and started to work hard, devoting himself to his career.
Seeing him like this, Ethan had a new impression of him. At lunchtime, he asked, “Do you still want to
look for her?”
Garrett unhurriedly pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. There was a calm look about him. “I
respect Laney’s choice. The reason why she refused me was very rational. Besides, she doesn’t want
to be with me. If I forced her back, we wouldn’t be happy. I can only let her go.”
He smiled and looked into the distance with a trace of sadness in his eyes. “The earth is round. If I
keep on walking forward, I can eventually meet her again in the near future, right? I have to prepare for
that moment. When that day comes, I will definitely be ready with my own choice, and by then, I’ll never
let go of her.”
Ethan raised his eyebrows and looked at Garrett quietly. After a while, he patted him on the shoulder
and said with a smile, “That day will come. I’m sure of it.”
