Chapter 1289


    Ethan could overhear the conversation.


    Olivia nudged him by the arm, whispering into his ear, "Henpecked by your wife, huh?"


    “I dly take that as apliment."


    He pulled her into his embrace.His overt advances rendered her cheeks red while he was


    unbothered.His fingers pinched her cheek lightly.


    “Why are you still so shy? You''re not a kid anymore."


    Olivia had always been shy when it came to this kind of thing.


    After all, they kept their rtionship under the radar when they first got together.


    It was never disclosed publicly, so she couldn''t get used to it in a short time.


    Wayne, who walked out of the room, watched the couple share sweet nothings.


    Ethan said something that made her blush.


    Wordlessly, Wayne withdrew himself from the crowd.


    n walked up to him and lowered his voice to report.


    "I tested her.She''s not Ophelia."


    Wayne bit a piece of cigarette, his eyes indecipherable.


    "Are you sure?"


    “Yes.I tested her in many ways, but she didn''t show any reflex reaction."


    n sighed.


    “I wish she was Ophelia, too.But too bad, she''s not her."


    A lighter clicked, burning the tip of Wayne''s cigarette.He inhaled the other tip before breathing out a


    circle of smoke.His voice was hoarse as a result of a white night spent.


    "Just where has she gone to?"


    As though she had never existed in the first ce, Ophelia disappeared in thin airst night.


    “We''ll find her.I''ve asked someone to seal off the hot spring.Wayne discarded the cigarette and headed


    for the ballroom.There was a seat arranged for Olivia right next to Ethan''s.The guests were free to


    have lunch.Without the reporters around, the atmosphere was rather lighthearted than usual.Ethan


    gave everyone a cold disposition so others didn''t dare to talk to him.They knew his vile temper very


    well.


    He rarely showed up on such asions.


    Even if he attended, he would leave right after he did what he should.


    Now that a woman was sitting next to him, all eyes were on them.


    The supposed gay admiral was devouring shrimp, dipping them in sauce to feed the woman.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Her eyes narrowed at a single bite of it.


    Tears began swarming her eyes, and the tip of her nose was red.


    “It''s spicy..."


    She looked at him with watery eyes.


    Hurriedly, he handed her a ss of orange juice, and she swigged it.


    “It''s all your fault.Why did you dip them in so much spicy sauce?"


    "Sorry, my bad.Please forgive me,"he responded apologetically.


    The guests around them gushed.


    “I''m blind.What about you?"


    “Gosh, how I wish I could kick them out of here."


    Wayne initially thought that it was an act, but Ethan''s eyes held genuine affection.


    Besides, no one couldpel Ethan into putting up an act unless it was done out of will.


    ording to the information, Olivia was described as a bubbly woman.


    It wasn''t weird for her to act all cute in front of her lover.


    Wayne massaged his temple.


    Was he overthinking it? His watchful gaze didn''t go unnoticed by Olivia, who thought, "He should let go


    of those unhelpful thoughts by now."


    A sudden pinch by the waist pulled her back from her thoughts, and she met Ethan''s icy eyes.


    After the meal, he put off the following schedule.


    Since the agreement was clinched, he decided to spend the rest of the day with her.


    As soon as theyy foot into the room, he pinned her against the wall and kissed her aggressively.
