Chapter 62
Seeing the cold sweat seeping from Emma's forehead, Ethan Carter couldn't help but ease his movements, pulling her into his arms and patting her back in an attempt to
calm her down.
"It's okay, don't be afraid." His voice was low and gentle, and he was surprised at how gentle he could be on this day.
Emma took a deep breath, trying to calm her heartbeat, "Thank you."
After a pause, as if she remembered something, she hurriedly stepped back, wanting to keep her distance from him, but realized that there was nowhere to step back, even involving her ankles, and then blushed furiously. Ethan couldn't help but laugh, "I thought you had some ulterior motive for avoiding me? Why are you so evasive?"Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
"Even with the injury, there's no need for that." Emma smiled slightly, "In order to avoid misunderstandings, stay away from people with masters, this is common sense.
Ethan wanted to tear off her hypocritical mask.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly took two steps forward, and her body closer.
Emma was on her guard, "What do you want?"

Emma gritted her teeth and coldly gave her expulsion order, "I don't want to have to say it again, Mr. Carter, please."

Emma quickly turned on the bathroom fan, and only when the familiar scent dissipated did she slowly relax, her mind flashing back to the night's absurdity, reminding her of the three years she spent in bed with Ethan. It was ironic that after five years of anticipation, she was still unsure of herself when she was near him again..

Ever since the two men had gone to their room, Olivia Brooks had been distracted by the images that kept popping into her head.
She'd worked so hard for so many years, how could she let one Emma ruin it so easily?
After a long moment of thought, she got up and headed upstairs..
The butler stopped her just in time, saying politely, "Miss Brooks, this is a private area,
