Chapter 1094:

“Abuse? That can’t be right. Sure, Hector has a rough past, but he’s always acted like a gentleman in our professional meetings. I never would have guessed he would abuse anyone.” The news stunned Darwin. He couldn’t connect the well-mannered Hector he knew with the idea of someone capable of domestic violence.

Brenna asked, “Your company works with Hector?”

“We’ve got a few joint projects. One night, his assistant got too drunk and started spilling things, but I don’t know much else,” Darwin replied, watching Brenna closely for any sign she was worried about Ethan. If she truly cared about Ethan, she would be concerned that his company was under attack.
