Chapter 161 I Missed You

So Much

On Sunday, Brenna was at the airport waiting for Ellie to arrive.

Just then, her phone started ringing-it was Ethan calling. His voice, deep and soothing, soon filled her ear. "Are you free now? How about we grab lunch together? I can pick you up."

It was then that Brenna noticed several unread messages on her phone, all from Ethan, asking if she was free

for lunch.

With a smile, she responded, "Sorry, I'm busy this afternoon."

She chose not to elaborate, remembering Ellie's warning; she couldn't let Ethan know about Ellie's arrival, as he might pass the information to Jayceon.

On the top floor of the Mitchell Group building, Ethan stood next to the floor-to- ceiling windows, holding his phone. Brenna's refusal surprised him. It was Sunday, and Brenna typically wasn't at her studio on Sundays. He wondered what she could be occupied with.

Still, Ethan respected her privacy and didn't probe further. Instead, he suggested, "How about we meet for

dinner then?"

Behind him, Neville was quietly impressed by Brenna. From what he knew, no one had ever turned down Ethan. He thought Brenna's audacity was notable, or perhaps she was just unaware of Ethan's prominence in the global business

scene.

Ethan was a titan in international business, known for his strategic prowess in corporate management and investment. His guidance on business was highly sought after and could significantly impact any individual or

business.
