The man’s facial features were shrouded in the darkness, and no one could see his expression. It was gloomy and frightening. No one dared to look up at him.
Until the man’s cold voice uttered, “Get lost.”
Those words were like ice, freezing everyone’s heart.
The three of them did not dare to say another word and immediately left the study.
Carla came across Annetta and Douglas. Thinking of how Annetta had ruined her 18th birthday party, she was furious. Without thinking about it, she quickly took photos of them eating with her mobile phone and sent the photos to Ethan through Facebook Messenger.
But a notification popped up after she sent it: “You are sending a message to someone who is not your friend. Please send him a friend request…”
Carla suddenly panicked. Young Master Ethan had blocked her!
Carla, who had planned to only send photos, was furious. “That wretch, Annetta, must have done something! Otherwise, Young Master Ethan wouldn’t have blocked me!”
When she thought of this, she ran into the restaurant and rushed to Annetta’s table. She threw her bag in front of Annetta, “Annetta White!”
Annetta had not expected Carla to suddenly appear. She hated Carla, but today she was a blessing in disguise. Before Carla had time to say anything else, Annetta got up and pulled Carla down into her chair, “Carla, perfect timing. Poor Mr. Sanders has no friends, and there is no one to accompany him to eat. Don’t you like handsome men? You should eat with Mr. Sanders! I need to leave now.”
Douglas glanced at her amusedly. Annetta glanced at them and said, “Take your time. Bye-bye!”
She had thought that Douglas would stop her. After all, he had already given her the video before the meal. How could he let her go so easily?
But he didn’t do anything. There was always a lazy smile on his face, and he also reminded her, “Take your time. Don’t rush.”
People would think that he really cared about her!
When she saw his smile, Annetta immediately felt her scalp go numb. She instinctively felt as if there was a blade hidden within his smile.
Carla was caught off guard by Annetta’s actions. However, when she saw Douglas sitting opposite her, she held back the urge to chase after Annetta and question her.
Carla did not have any resistance toward any handsome men, not to mention a man with a strong background and excellent looks like Douglas.
At least this time Annetta was smart and knew to give this handsome guy to her.
“Hello, Mr. Sanders. I’m Carla, Annetta’s younger sister.” In front of Douglas, Carla was as gentle as a well-educated young lady. She reached out her hand to shake his, “Nice to meet you.”
Douglas didn’t reach out his hand. Instead, he stood up, walked to Carla, bent down, and lifted Carla’s chin with his slender fingertips.
With such a handsome face in front of her, Carla suddenly became very shy. Just as her face turned red, Douglas said in a lazy voice, “Don’t smile, darling…”
His voice was like the sun in winter, which could melt her heart, especially when he called her ‘darling’… Carla felt her heart melt.
Just as she was about to speak, Douglas said, “Your smile is too ugly.”
Carla felt as if someone had dumped a bucket of ice water on her.
She stared blankly at Douglas. He stood up and left indifferently.
Carla looked at his back and was furious, but there was nowhere for her to vent, “Annetta White, you b*tch! Just you wait!”
Annetta returned to the Harris family as fast as she could. She sensed a strange atmosphere when she stepped into the house and felt a chill in her heart.
She didn’t see any servants downstairs, so she went upstairs.
She cautiously went to Ethan’s study, but it was empty.
She went to the bedroom. Just as she was about to turn on the light, she saw a figure sitting on the sofa. She had no idea how long he had been sitting there in the dark.
Annetta knew that it was Ethan.
