Chapter 335

Author: Tangy Candy
Clarice wasn't paying any attention to Ethan at all until she heard what he said. Her eyes, which had just closed, snapped open again.

"What did you say?"

Clarice knew Michael couldn't be detained for long. With the Starr family's limited influence, they could make things difficult for him for a while at most. Even without her stepping in to pull strings, a little financial loss on Oscar's end would eventually smooth things over. Michael was bound to be fine sooner or later.

She just hadn't e

    By the time Noah and Charlotte finished cleaning up and returned, Ethan had already left."Ethan didn't seem very happy tonight," Noah remarked, his gaze falling on the cake that had been moved. It now sat at the center of the dining table instead of the coffee table."That's just how he is—he gets upset at the slightest thing. Don't take it to heart."Though Charlotte said it lightly, her eyes dimmed just a little. She knew Ethan still harbored feelings for her. But she had already made her stance clear.Still, at times, when she saw the faint vulnerability hidden beneath his arrogance, she couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy."I don't mind," Noah said, his voice steady. "But he is your friend—and colleague. I wouldn't want there to be any distance between you because of me."He paused briefly, then added, "After all, I'm just a passerby. It's never worth affecting the people around you for the sake of someone passing through.""You're not a passerby."Charlotte stepped

    Ethan could no longer hold back and let out a cold laugh."Noah, what brings you back all of a sudden? I heard Lacuna's been taken down. You should be lying low too, shouldn't you?"Noah paused at the words.Charlotte shot Ethan a sharp glare.Of all things to bring up—he was clearly picking a fight on purpose."Ethan, if you really can't eat, then don't force yourself."Charlotte forced a smile at him, awkwardly trying to change the subject.But Ethan only pressed further. Leaning his elbow on the table, he edged closer toward Noah."How could I not? Sharing a meal with an internationally wanted mercenary—I'm honored.""Ethan!"Seeing Noah's expression darken, Charlotte slammed her hand against the table."Charlotte."But almost immediately, Noah spoke as well.He set down his bowl, lightly brushing a finger across the corner of his lips where a trace of sauce lingered. His voice was low."I'm leaving tomorrow. Don't worry, I won't drag you into anything."There was no

    Charlotte set the cake down on the table, then turned and went straight into the kitchen, skipping even the basic courtesy of pouring Ethan a glass of water.It was clearly not a welcoming gesture.Ethan understood that perfectly well, yet he still sat quietly on the sofa, pretending not to notice.Out of the corner of his eye, however, he caught sight of the kitchen—where Charlotte and Noah stood close together, chatting and laughing.Charlotte handed Noah a freshly mixed drink. He took a spoonful, tasted it, and nodded. "Not bad."Then, without another word, he poured a glass and walked over to Ethan."Charlotte's special blend. It's good."Ethan's lips twitched slightly. He accepted the glass, only to set it down on the table. "Thanks.""By the way, how's your condition? Are your injuries healing?"Noah's tone was calm, but there was something unhidden in his gaze. It almost seemed like genuine concern.Ethan looked at him for a moment before replying, "Much better.""Tha

    This unspoken understanding between them gradually dissolved the faint weariness Charlotte had always felt amid the city's bustle. The supermarket was clearly noisy and crowded, yet with Noah beside her—pushing the cart, silent but steady—she felt an unexpected sense of grounding, something warm and real, like life itself.At the checkout, Charlotte insisted on paying. Noah didn't argue; when he took the shopping bags, he simply lifted the two heaviest ones into his own hands."Let's go," he said.Charlotte's apartment was not far from the supermarket, just over a ten-minute walk. Night had deepened, and the streetlights stretched their shadows long across the pavement, occasionally overlapping. The early autumn breeze carried a hint of coolness, sweeping away the lingering stuffiness from inside the store."This time… how long will you stay?" Charlotte tilted her head to look at him, finally asking the question that had been circling in her mind. His movements were always elusive,

    "I don't know. But I know what you're worried about. That's why I wanted to give Lenny a chance."The smile faded from Khloe's face. Looping her arm through Nick's, she spoke softly, like a quiet confession.Nick's thoughts were easy enough to read. Khloe acted on emotion, but his considerations were entirely rational. He was fiercely protective of his own. Between Michelle and Lenny, Nick would almost certainly prefer that Lenny not be the one who got hurt.Even if there were feelings between them, the Keller family was far from ordinary. Standing before Lenny was a gap in status he could hardly cross.And Nick knew Michelle too well—he was certain she would find it even harder to overcome that divide.…Night gradually fell, and the bustling city was bathed in a glow of neon lights.The streets in the central district were at their liveliest at this hour.With the workday over, pedestrians hurried along—some rushing home, others meeting friends, weaving through shopping malls

    Since it was a win-win arrangement, Michelle was naturally willing to cooperate.However, with the new product not yet finalized and everything still in preparation—coupled with Nick and Khloe's recent wedding—Michelle hadn't had the chance to sit down with Hunt Group's team to work out the details.Khloe smiled brightly. "That's right. It's exactly because of that. Since neither Nick nor I will be at the company for now, we're worried there might be issues with coordination. So we thought we'd assign you a 'guardian escort.'""A guardian escort?" Michelle looked completely baffled. "What do you mean?"She turned to Nick, whose gaze shifted slightly—landing on Lenny.Lenny looked even more confused."Starting today, your collaboration will be fully handled by Lenny. He'll represent Hunt Group and oversee the entire process with you and your team, ensuring smooth communication and proper resource allocation."If you have any needs going forward, you can go directly to Lenny. And…

    "Maybe it was just a misunderstanding," Trey said coldly, brushing past Stella before she could say any more, and stepped into the hospital room.Seeing Khloe, Lauren seemed to brighten immediately. She reached for Khloe's hands, showering her with praise and complimenting how much more beautiful K

    Lauren ended the call with a huff.She didn't notice that the call had lasted ten seconds, just enough for the tail end of her words to reach Khloe's ears.By the time Khloe had driven home, picked up the phone, and was about to speak, she heard the furious tone of the elder woman.In an instant,

    Although his voice remained calm, Trey felt a twinge of unease deep in his chest.Lauren Leighton preferred solitude. She had lived for years in a quiet villa tucked against the hills on the outskirts of the city. Except for major holidays, she often refused even family visits.Receiving a call fr

    "When will this endless cycle finally end?" Angela sniffled softly, knowing that pushing back aggressively wouldn't work. She felt a pang of helplessness. Trey's mind was completely consumed by Khloe, and she had no intention of pushing him further toward her rival."Thank you for everything," Tr
