Chapter 27: Young Master Ethan's Whole Heart Ached
"You've never waited for me to get off work before."
If that was the case, he should be happy. Why was he angry?
A sudden thought came to Annetta's mind. Ethan said that she had never waited for him to get off work
before. In the past..., she remembered that she had always waited for Caleb to get off work instead.
This made sense. Just now, Ethan had kept forcing her to tell her who he was.
In that case...Did he think that she took him for Caleb and lost his temper because of that?
The more Annetta thought about it, the more convinced she was that this was the reason. Although she
had nothing but resentment for Caleb in this life, this was something only she knew. To other people,
she was the woman who always chased after Caleb Taylor.
As she thought of this, she took a deep breath and grabbed the man's large hand with her tiny hands.
She looked into Ethan's dark eyes and said, "Ethan... did you think that I had mistaken you for Caleb?"
Annetta felt the temperature drop immediately after she had said this. Howard, who was in the front
seat, wanted to curse that foolish woman. Why did she have to bring up Caleb Taylor, of all people? Did
she not know that it was taboo to mention that name in front of Ethan?
The man's gaze turned menacing again. Annetta shuddered in fear as she felt like he almost crushed
her waist with the strength of his hug. But she put on an innocent expression and said, "Ethan, I have
already told you that I no longer have any feelings for that s*umbag. Ethan, don't you believe me?" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Annetta was ravishing, exquisite and beautiful when she did not dress up as ugly. She looked even
more charming when she turned her 'puppy-dog eyes' on him. Such a gaze could charm people into
forgiving her to get away with even murder.
Annetta pretended to be broken-hearted in despair when she saw that Ethan did not respond. She
said, "Ethan, it's fine if you don't believe me... I don't want to explain myself any further."
Then she fluttered her long eyelashes at him and looked like she was about to cry.
She was sure that Ethan, who didn't care about anyone but her, would be moved by her acts.
Especially when Annetta's eyes welled up with tears, looking distraught because he did not believe
her.
Ethan's whole heart ached. His long fingers gently wiped the tears from her cheeks and almost said in
a coaxing voice, "Don't cry..."
Annetta did not stop crying. When he helped her wipe her tears, she turned her face to the side and
said through choked sobs, "You don't believe me..."
Ethan forcefully turned her face towards him, looked at her pouting lips, and lowered his head to kiss
her.
He bit down gently on her lips as if punishing this little one for always finding ways to make him angry.
When they stopped kissing, Annetta cried even harder. "You not only don't believe me, but you also
bully me," she continued.
The little girl was crying and twitching, extremely aggrieved.
In the end, the man who had always hated and been indifferent towards a woman's tears had no
choice but to compromise. "Don't cry...I believe you," he coaxed her in his low voice.
The little girl sobbed, "R...Really?"
The little girl was pleasantly surprised. After all, it was too difficult to gain Ethan's trust!
The man grunted and wiped her tears away. "Yes, I believe you."
