Chapter 39: Why is she here?

After the meal, Jessica dabbed her lips with a napkin before she slowly pushed her chair back to leave the table. She stood up, grabbed her tote bag and the keys to the sports car, then walked toward the door. Just as she reached it, she paused slightly and glanced at Davis, who remained at the dining table his expression impassive.

"Have a nice day," she chimed, her smile bright and dazzling.

Davis gave a slight nod. "You too." He responded with a smile tugging on his lips.

She walked over to the car while fiddling with her phone tending to some important messages and chats after she was done, she sighed in relief.

Ethan approached him after Jessica had left. "Are we still going?" he asked.

Davis studied him for a long moment before leaning back in his chair. His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of his wheelchair, deep in thought. "Then let’s proceed as planned," he finally said. A had decided to take this step and will do his best on that.

Ethan nodded and took a step back. "I’ll have the car brought around."
