My eyes widened. “No-I1 mean-yes! | mean, | ordered it for
you.”
He smirked. “Uh-huh.”
| tried not to blush. “Seriously. | thought you might be hungry
too.”
“Is that so?” he murmured, amused.
I was saved from further embarrassment when the bell above
the door jingled.
| looked up and smiled-until the passenger side of Ava’s car
opened and Ethan stepped out. My smile dropped like a stone in
water.
“What the hell...” | breathed.
Ava pushed the door open, looking apologetic. Ethan strode in right behind her like he owned the place.
He cstraight towardwithout a word and sat down beside me. Without asking, he picked up the bowl of
meat pasta
and started eating.

“Didn’t know my wife started dining alone now,” he said
casually, his eyes cold.
| stiffened. “I'm not your-"
“You didn’t think to tell me?” he interrupted. “Or are you just
that cozy with him now?” He gestured at Alexander with his
fork.
“Don’t do this here,” | whispered, furious.
Alexander said nothing, watching Ethan with that same
unreadable expression.
Ethan turned his gaze to him. “You always just hanging around
other people’s wives? Or is that a new hobby?”

“Watch it,” Ava snapped before | could say a word. “Alexander
was just being decent.”
Ethan scoffed. “Decent? You mean like when he dragged her
away in the middle of the night? Or when he keeps showing up
every tI’m around? Yeah. Real decent.”’
| tried to change the subject, but Ethan wasn’t done.
“Oh,” he said louder, “and maybe ask your bestie here why she
thinks Mr. Stoic is secretly in love with you.”
My stomach dropped.
Chapter 66
Ava froze. “Ethan-"
He pulled out his phone and held it up. “Text messages. Cute
ones too: Olivia: I'm safe. Alexander found me.Ava: OMG. |
KNEW IT. He chimself?? See??? He totally has feelings for
you!!!”
My throat tightened.
Alexander didn’t flinch. “Whether I like Olivia or not,” he said
calmly, “is not your business.””
Ethan clenched his jaw.
Alexander leaned forward. “But what is everyone's business
now is the way you've been forcing yourself on a woman who
wants nothing to do with you. That is what's disgusting.”
Ethan's eyes flashed amber for a second.
“Relax,” Alexander added, waving to the server. “Let's get a fresh
order. Hot pasta. One each. Extra meat for Ava.”
The server nodded and rushed off.
Ava glanced at me, face pale. “I swear | didn’t mean it like that... |
was just joking in texts-
“I know,” | said quickly, giving her a small nod.

Ethan crossed his arms and stared at his plate like it had
personally offended him. “I lost my appetite”
“I didn’t,” Alexander said, picking up his fork and calmly starting
on the new bowl of pasta.
The table was quiet for a few awkward minutes.
| couldn’t eat. My hands were trembling under the table, and
my throat was too tight.
Ethan sat rigid, fuming silently.
Alexander didn’t even glance up, finishing his food without comment. When he was done, he wiped his mouth
with a napkin, placed his fork down with a soft clink, and looked
around at us.
“Don’t waste food,” he said quietly. “Especially not when people
are starving in front of you.”
Ava blinked.
Then she immediately picked up her fork and began eating like
her life depended on it.
Olivia's POV
The night air bit as Ethan and | stepped out onto the sidewalk,
the earlier noise of the restaurant dimming behind us.

“Listen,” | said, “the divorce is final. | want nothing more to do
with you!”
He exhaled sharply. “No way. | am not interested in the divorce
at all.”
‘But | am,” | fired back. “You cheated.

He took a step closer. “It’s not over. I'm not giving up on our marriage just because you're scared.”
“Scared?” | spat. “No. I'm done. | refuse to stay with someone
who doesn’t respect me.”
Ethan's eyes narrowed. “Respect?

resolute.
