Chapter 238

Madelyn stopped in her tracks when she realized it was George calling her. She wondered, ‘ Why is Ethan at the school at this time?’

However, she had no choice but to get into Ethan’s car, taking the passenger seat.

The car was warm, thanks to the air conditioning.

“He was here to pick me up?” Madelyn responded, a bit puzzled. She wondered, ‘Wasn’t he here for Yvonne?”

Ethan nodded, “Yvonne was worried when the evening class had ended later than usual, so she called him. Did you not run into them?”
