Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 805 "Get out." Ethan's patience snapped, his voice cold and sharp. Charlotte truly panicked. She wasn't sure whether he was toying with her, but right now, all the control lay in his hands. He hadn't even bothered trying to persuade her. She had only two choices: leave-or take a gamble. A gamble that Ethan still possessed a shred of humanity. "Fine. I'll cook for you." She got up and headed straight to the kitchen. It was already very late, yet she felt no trace of sleepiness. Her nerves were stretched to the breaking point. Ethan had harbored ill intentions toward her before.

Judging by tonight, he wouldn't let her off easily. Charlotte steeled herself. She had already prepared her final card. If Ethan truly tried anything, she could use it as leverage to turn the tables. For Khloe's sake, she had no choice but to push forward. ---- There weren't many ingredients in the refrigerator. In the end, she made him a bowl of instant noodles-hearty enough, with vegetables and an egg added in. When Ethan saw the effort she had put into the simple dish, a flicker of satisfaction crossed his face.

Yet, he only stirred the noodles with his fork, showing no intention of eating. "Don't you like it? There weren't many ingredients. If you want something else, just say so. | can call for a delivery and make you something new." Her tone sounded sincere. Ethan smiled faintly. "I'm not that hungry anymore. It's fine." "Then..." "But | don't like wasting food. You can eat this bowl." Charlotte wasn't hungry at all, but since he had said so, she didn't refuse. Taking the fork, she began eating beside him, large mouthfuls one after another.

Seeing how hastily she ate, Ethan even handed her a tissue, telling her to slow down. ---- As if the sight amused him, he watched without blinking until she finished. The moment Charlotte set down the bowl and fork, hoping to catch her breath, Ethan suddenly asked, "Are you sleepy?" She hadn't expected him to be so impatient. Her heart lurched. Noticing the predatory look in his eyes, she discreetly reached for the phone behind her. Ethan chuckled. "Looking for your phone?

It's with me." When he pulled her phone from beside him and handed it back, Charlotte froze for a few seconds before quickly placing it on the table. Her actions were meant to ease his suspicion. "Ethan, I'm here to make a sincere exchange with you. You don't need to be so guarded. | came tonight to beg you. You can name any condition you want. I'll keep my word." 1 "Really?" He nodded, the smile on his lips deepening. He "believed" her all too well. The more innocent and earnest she sounded, the more he ---- sensed she was digging a deeper trap for him.

He had fallen for her tricks too many times already. If he did again, he might as well replace his brain. Lifting his gaze once more, Ethan said, "Charlotte, I've been having insomnia lately. If you're not sleepy either, how about you keep me company and watch some TV?" "Watch... TV with you?" Charlotte stared, stunned. What was he plotting now? He nodded. "Use your phone to cast something. Find a trending drama... Let me think. Don't girls usually like romance shows?

Let's watch a romance." "Ethan, are you serious?" She took a moment to process his words, still unable to grasp his intentions. Ethan looked straight at her. "What, you don't want to watch with me?" Speechless, Charlotte picked up her phone and did as he asked She rarely watched dramas, so she chose one at random to cast onto the screen. But to her surprise, despite its soaring popularity, the plot turned ---- out to be utterly outrageous.
