But I didn't wait for him. After sending a text message to a lawyer I knew well about divorce, I went to bed early. In the middle of the night, the notification sound of WeChat woke me up. I looked at the time and it was already one in the morning. As expected, there was no one around me.

I opened my phone and saw that Cindy had sent me several messages. [My brother is so handsome ! ] [I really want to eat him up while he's asleep ! ] A photo of Ethan sleeping was also attached . In the photo, Ethan was resting on her pink cartoon pillow, with messy hair on his forehead, eyes closed, and lips pursed.

Perhaps seeing the message "The other party is typing" above the dialog box, Cindy quickly withdrew the message and sent me an emoticon of a kitten begging for mercy: [I wanted to send it to my bestie, but accidentally sent it to my sister.] [Brother Ethan fell asleep, I took this secretly for fun, sister, don't blame him.]

She thought I would call Ethan to question her as I did before, but this time I chose to block her and go back to sleep. Whether she was joking or serious, I didn't care anymore.

The next day, Ethan and Cindy came to the company together. Cindy carefully protected her belly, but still accidentally tripped and her face turned pale. Ethan simply carried her sideways into the office. Cindy blushed and hugged his neck, looking at me proudly.

The colleagues around came over and whispered gossip: "Xiao Cheng can't even tell the difference between a copier and a shredder, but he can be the boss's assistant for half a year." "Is Ethan really interested in her?"

I was busy chatting with the lawyer and nodded casually, "Maybe." As soon as I finished speaking, a familiar voice sounded in my ears. "Grace, come with me."

I turned around and saw Ethan standing behind me, looking at me coldly. In the company, no one knew that Ethan and I were married. He prohibited office romances, so on the surface I was just a veteran of the company. In order to avoid suspicion, he was always indifferent to me in the company.

Once I had a high fever of 40 degrees and couldn't walk steadily. I found Ethan in a daze and asked him to take me to the hospital. He was afraid that his subordinates would gossip, so he shook off my hand and asked me to ask for leave from the HR department. And as long as Cindy complained about stomachache, Ethan would not even hold a meeting and immediately carry her to the hospital for examination.

I followed Ethan into the office. He arranged for Cindy to rest in the cubicle. When no one was around, he came over, held my hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you still angry?"

I pulled my hand away and replied in a distant tone: "I said, I'm not angry."

He held my shoulders and looked at me with burning eyes: "Are you still being stubborn? I didn't come home last night, and you didn't even call me or send me a text message. You still dare to say you're not angry?"

I answered in confusion: "Isn't Cindy here? She's your assistant, of course she will take good care of you."

Anger flashed in his eyes, and his hand on my shoulder suddenly tightened. I tried to get rid of his shackles in pain, but he threw me onto the sofa while I was struggling. When I stood up with my hands on the sofa, I touched something. I pulled it out and pulled out a pink lace bra from the gap between the sofa.

Seeing this, the anger on Ethan's face instantly disappeared: "This is--"

I was not interested in listening to his explanation. I threw my underwear back on the sofa and said lightly, "Nothing else, I'll go out first, Ethan ."

After work, I was going to meet a client. Ethan 's car slowly stopped in front of me. "Get in the car." "I'll take Cindy home first, and then take you to the buffet restaurant on Qingnian Road to eat seafood." Cindy stuck half of her head out of the passenger seat and greeted me with a bright smile: "Sorry, Sister Grace , I'm here to take a ride again."

I was busy trying to get a taxi, so I said casually, "You guys go ahead, I'm allergic to seafood." Ethan's face darkened instantly. Of course he knew that I had never been allergic to seafood. That seafood buffet restaurant was my favorite. He was about to say something with a gloomy face, but I didn't even look at him. I walked around his car and got into a taxi across the street.
