Love On Ice: Don’t Leave Me, My Charming Liar

Chapter 371: Ethan remained silent for a moment, then rose and adjusted his suit. "Just go home. I have instructed Hana to prepare something for your hangover." His response was an unspoken agreement. A wave of relief washed over Nyla as she realized Ethan had agreed, just as she had expected. As she got to her feet, a knock sounded at the door. Ethan opened it. Looking up, Nyla saw the young woman who had been standing by Ethan's side earlier. She appeared quite young, likely younger than Nyla, prompting Nyla to tighten her grip involuntarily. "Mr.

Brooks, I realized you hadn't returned for some time, so... I came looking for you," Veda said, stealing a glance at Nyla and noticing her smeared lipstick, her expression slightly disappointed. Her suspicions were confirmed. "Who asked you to come here? Wait over there," Ethan scolded her. Veda, visibly intimidated, nodded and left, but not before giving Nyla a defiant look. Nyla, initially taken aback, then sneered subtly. From Ethan's demeanor, she figured this girl was not a secret lover. It appeared Ethan's presence was business-related.

Nyla hadn't anticipated the young woman harboring other motives, yet today she was too exhausted to concern herself. Jackson came over and murmured something to Ethan, to which he responded, "Understood. I'll join you shortly." "Escort Nyla home," Ethan instructed the bodyguards, giving Nyla a brief look before leaving. Nyla remained seated briefly in a trance, then stood and headed for the door. As she exited, she noticed the young woman not far off, observing her. |∆ţ€$† ¢@þŧ€я$ |η g∆łиovεłš.cøm It seemed she was waiting.

Nyla had no particular thoughts on the matter and lacked the energy to engage, so she simply walked away. To Nyla's surprise, Veda walked up to her. "Are you... Mr. Brooks' wife? Could we have a word?" Veda's tone was gentle, echoing Callie's. Nyla found this slightly annoying. She gave Veda a casual look and asked, "What is it that you want to discuss?" Veda clenched her hands into fists and said, "Mr. Brooks brought me here intentionally. I understand things between you two aren't great, and since you have someone else, you shouldn't hold on to Mr.

Brooks." Nyla hadn't planned to give her any attention, but perhaps the suppressed frustration was getting to her, sparking a defiant reaction. She turned to fully face Veda, examining her features, and then scoffed dismissively. "You're aiming to be his woman? I've dealt with many competitors, and Ethan harbors feelings for his childhood sweetheart. Among them all, you barely register. What makes you think you can confront me? Because he picked you up, you feel special?" . . .
