As Ethan approached, he greeted warmly, “Hello, Auntie Jacky.” His voice was calm, but his sudden appearance caught Jacky slightly off guard. She had been mid–conversation with Lily when he arrived.

Jacky smiled politely, though her mind was buzzing with curiosity. She had known Ethan since he was a child and was well–acquainted with his reserved nature, especially around women. His demeanor was often cold and distant toward those he didn’t particularly like. It was a quality she admired about him–he never sought unnecessary attention or engaged in frivolous interactions. So, what brought him here now?

“Ethan, is there something you need to discuss with me?” Jacky asked, assuming his approach was directed at

her.

To her surprise, Ethan replied with composure, “Actually, Auntie Jacky, I’d like to speak with Miss Lily.”

Jacky blinked, momentarily taken aback. She almost wanted to confirm what she had just heard–did Ethan really say he wanted to speak with Lily? Even Lily was startled by his words. She had assumed, like Jacky, that he was approaching to talk with her.

Their unspoken agreement to maintain distance in public had always been clear. Ethan wasn’t one to engage casually, especially with women, and their relationship was something both preferred to keep private. The inevitable rumors and speculations that would arise from any public interaction were an inconvenience neither wanted to deal with. Yet, here he was, breaking their mutual understanding.

Lily glanced at him with wide eyes, silently asking, What are you doing?

Ethan met her gaze, his expression soft yet determined. His eyes seemed to say, I just want to talk to you, baby.

Her brows furrowed in exasperation as she silently responded, Can’t this wait?
