Chapter 219: She Heard It"Hey, I thought you were busy," Charis squealed with surprise
"Why have you calledat this hour?" She had just returned hfrom work.
"I’m not calling to say hello.I want to ask you something." Ethan said coldly.
"Why did you tell Jabout what happened between us in the past?"
When Charis decided to tell everything to Jand sow the seeds of doubts in her mind, she knew Ethan would cto her
"What’s wrong? Did she quarrel with you?" Charis asked, pretending to be surprised.
"She’s unhappy," Ethan grunted.
"I’m sorry, but I didn’t mean to do it. You know me," Charis whined innocently.
"She asked about us and our past, and I couldn’t just walked away from our conversation. That would be rude. However, I made
and I only wish you two nothing but happiness. I didn’t expect Jwould bicker with you for such a trivial issue. I thought she
was a reasonable woman."
Charis had already prepared what to tell Ethan when he questioned her.She wanted to make it seem like she didn’t do anything
wrong, and Janet’s shallowness was the reason for their problems.She wanted to shift all the blon JHowever, the
phone call displeased her.
It seemed that Ethan truly cared about Janet.He had called her late at night just to talk about this.
Ethan didn’t think Charis was lying.
After all, she would easily be busted if she really lied about this and he asked Jto confront her.He knew Charis well.
She was bold, straightforward, and wouldn’t waste her tcreating problems in their lives.
But Ethan couldn’t entirely be sure of it.His intuition told him that things weren’t as simple as they seemed.
Jwould never make trouble out of nothing.
If Charis had merely talked about the past and their friendship, Jwouldn’t be jealous.
"Why don’t you say anything?"
Charis knew Ethan well and understood what he must be thinking.She sighed and said, "Do you wantto talk to Janet
tomorrow and explain everything clearly to her? I’m really sorry.I didn’t”
"No, thanks," Ethan said unhappily.
Charis’s heart sank.It looked like Ethan was suspicious of her.
The cold wind gave him a headache.
Reading women’s minds was an impossible task.
Ethan felt the only solution to the problem was to keep Jaway from Charis.It would be better if the two never saw each other
again.
However, unlike Christopher, Charis was important to the Larson Group.She was the daughter of the Turner family.
Ethan, despite being the CEO of the Larson Group, couldn’t just kick her out.
"Charis, you better mind your own business," he said, massaging his throbbing temples.
"Stay out of our personal problems."
At that moment, he heard rustling noises behind him.Ethan turned around and saw Jstanding behind him. Her dress
billowed with the cold wind as she stared at him with tears in her eyes.
