Chapter 72: Going to Daddy’s Place

Ethan was waiting at Eleanor’s office parking lot just like the previous day. This time, she wasn’t surprised. In fact, she had been expecting it.

"Am I getting more familiar with him?" she wondered as she stepped toward the car. "Why do I feel like I’d be disappointed if he hadn’t come today?"

The driver stepped forward and opened the door, revealing a smiling Ethan seated inside.

"Come in," he said warmly.

She slid into the car and sat back comfortably as the engine started and the vehicle pulled onto the road, heading toward Freya’s school.

Ethan glanced at her. "Are you going to today’s GMITCC banquet?"

"Yes," Eleanor replied, surprised. "How do you know?"

"You forgot who I am." He chuckled. "I’m not bragging, but there’s hardly anything in Manchester’s business circle that escapes my notice. When I heard about the event, I figured you’d attend... your company is new, and it’s a great opportunity for exposure."

"But I won’t be representing Heimdall today," she said, smirking.

"Oh?" Ethan raised a brow. "That’s unexpected. Then which company are you going to represent?"

"I won’t represent any company. Teresa will attend on behalf of Heimdall. I’ll be going as Edward Miller’s plus one."
