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

Chapter 46: "Good morning, Ethan. I've prepared breakfast. Please, taste it and let me know what you think," Callie said, having dismissed the housekeeper to prove her culinary skills. Her skills had once been praised by a renowned chef, and her mother had often said that a man's affection could be nurtured through satisfying his stomach. Ethan noticed the table laden with a variety of breakfast items and chose to join without comment to maintain the peaceful morning atmosphere.

On the table, Callie had arranged an assortment of foods, including sandwiches, milk, porridge, and pastries, alongside peeled eggs and various side dishes. He started with some porridge, recalling how Nyla made a special soup to cure his hangovers and how her porridge could easily fill him up due to its delightful taste. Unfortunately, Callie's porridge fell short of Nyla's, and he barely managed a few spoonfuls before stopping. Noticing Ethan rising, Callie's smile waned. "Don't you like it? Or is it about yesterday? I didn't mean to overstep, Ethan.

It won't happen again." Ethan, preferring silence but mindful of his family's partnership with the Higgins family, responded, "It's not that. I'm just not used to eating early." Relieved, Callie managed a weak smile. "I hope you won't hold yesterday against me. I promise not to impose again without an invitation." "Fine," Ethan muttered dismissively. "Your father suggested taking a position at Crestwave Group. I've been abroad and am out of touch with things here. It wouldn't be a bother, would it?" Callie inquired, watching Ethan carefully.

Honestly, the Higgins family had no shortage of excellent job opportunities. Ethan instantly recognized Roger's motives and replied coolly, "That's alright. You can start today if you're prepared." "Understood." Lαtєѕt chαptєrs in ɢɑlnovels. In the morning, rumors spread through Crestwave Group that Ethan had arrived accompanied by a woman, identified as a member of the influential Higgins family. Given the storied past between the Brooks and Higgins families, whispers about the new arrival being Ethan's future spouse circulated among the staff.

Callie secured a notable role as the Deputy Creative Director, favored by her successful stint overseas, where she had made quite a name for herself. Her initial aim was to serve directly under Ethan as his secretary, but he had no need for one. Once Jackson had set everything up, he approached Ethan with a work report, unsure whether to mention the office chatter. Noticing Jackson's pause, Ethan inquired, "Something on your mind?" Jackson, aware of Ethan's sour mood, opted not to stir the pot and diverted the conversation, saying, "Miss Green has finalized her designs.

Would you like to review them?" Ethan's annoyance was evident when remembering a conversation with Nyla from the day before. "Fetch them, and tell Nyla to come here. I'd like to discuss the nuances with her directly." Upon receiving Jackson's call and hearing of Ethan's dissatisfaction, Nyla's hands balled into fists. "Really? Well, I better head there then," she replied. . . .
