When Love Breaks Novel Josephine And Zayne

Chapter 125

To avoid another awkward situation, Josephine chose to sit in the front passenger seat. But the moment she did, she noticed Ethan's expression darken even further. He remained completely silent the entire drive, his gaze fixed on the scenery outside the window.

Last night, he had barely spoken on their way home, and she had let it slide. But that day was different. They were about to meet Nick, and this was important. If he was still refusing to talk now, Josephine was starting to get anxious.

When the car stopped at a red light, she decided to break the silence and ease the tension between them. "Mr. Dane-"

"You promised to call me Ethan." He cut her off before she could finish, his gaze sharp, like he was accusing her of going back on her word.

Josephine felt even more awkward. "I just thought maybe you wouldn't like me calling you that."
