Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts

Chapter 52

Did all little girls these days know how to sweet talk like this? They were really good at it.

Ines just couldn't resist, she nudged Ethan and said, "The little girl wants a photo with you, why are you zoning out?"

The two little girls handed their phone to Ines when they saw her take the initiative. They grinned and said, "We're counting on you."

The girls positioned themselves on either side of Ethan, who stood there expressionless and a bit stiff.

Ines, feeling helpless, looked at Ethan's aloofness and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Meyer, at least flash a smile when a beauty is taking a photo of you."

Sure enough, Ethan couldn't help but curl his lips after hearing that. Ines quickly snapped a photo, capturing the man with a slight smile on his face, which made her chuckle.

The two little girls ran over excitedly to check out the photo and were very satisfied. They thanked Ines profusely and then offered to take their photo in return.

Ines couldn't refuse, so she went over. This time, Ethan's attitude was completely different, he naturally put his arm around her.

She leaned slightly against him, their chemistry was palpable and they looked perfect together.

"You two are a match made in heaven, wish you happiness forever."

"May you two grow old together happily."

After the girls left, the pair looked at the photo together. Ethan was very pleased, thinking he should take more photos in the future. Just then, he heard Ines spoiling the mood by mumbling, "You really look like a star, but I'm only into Justin now."

Justin, that sounded like a guy's name, didn't it?

"Who's Justin?" Ethan glared, his eyes filled with a hint of danger. Ines had another man she liked besides her ex-fiancé Aiden? He had never heard her mention this before. Ines pulled out a photo on her phone, pointing at a man and started introducing him, "This is Justin, my latest idol. He's low- key, dedicated, principled, not flashy, and his acting skills are top-notch. He has a unique style and a deep, sexy voice."

So, he was an actor

, and he was getting such high praises?

Ethan looked at the excited Ines, his handsome face gradually darkened. What was even more annoying was he found out that even her phone wallpaper was Justin.

"Is he really that great?" Ethan's voice sounded off.

Ines was too busy admiring the photos on her phone, "Yeah, I haven't had a celebrity idol in years, but recently I became a fan of his. Not just me, all the girls at the firm love him too."

"Look at him in this black suit, isn't he super handsome?" Ines showed him a few more photos.

Ethan glanced at them, then shook his head and nonchalantly said, "He looks a bit old."

"No way, this isn't old, this is mature and stable." Ines continued to look at the photos, a faint smile on her lips.

"Who do you like more between him and me?" The jealousy in his voice was pretty evident now.

"Of course it's." Just as she was about to say Justin, Ines suddenly noticed the icy atmosphere next to her. Looking up, she saw Ethan looking at her with a wicked smile. This kind of smile was all too familiar to her, and it definitely wasn't a good sign.

"Of course I like Mr. Meyer more, otherwise why would I agree to marry you after just one meeting?" Ines laughed and changed the subject.

Ethan scoffed and raised an eyebrow, "Is that the truth?"

"I've never been a liar." Ines replied calmly, mentally kicking herself for bringing up this topic in front of him. This man was easy to rouse jealousy.

"What to do? Mrs. Meyer, I want to kiss you." Ethan said.

"What?" Ines was surprised.

Without giving her time to react, Ethan pulled her close with one hand on her waist and the other on her chin. His hot kiss came down, not tender like usual, but punishing and a bit rough.

Even though she had gotten used to his demanding kisses at home, this was the first time he had done it in public. Her struggle and displeasure only provoked a deeper punishment from him.

Not until she was out of breath did Ethan let her go. She leaned against him, her legs weak and her cheeks burning like fire. She felt all eyes on them and could only bury her face in his chest.

"If you dare to praise other men in front of me again, see how I deal with you." He emphasized the last few words.

Thinking about his unique way of punishment, Ines couldn't help but lament. She wouldn't dare to do it again. This man didn't care about the place or time when he got jealous.

He was absolutely despicable. Good thing no one here knew her, otherwise she would die of embarrassment.

Ines kept her head down as Ethan led her forward. Seeing her ostrich-like behavior, Ethan was in a good mood.

He finally found a way to deal with this sharp-tongued girl. Her bashfulness was her Achilles heel.

If she disobeyed in the future, he would use this trick. When they finally escaped the crowded shopping street, Ines grumbled at Ethan, "Mr. Meyer, you're way too jealous. Don't you know celebrities are just our spiritual sustenance?"

Ethan said, "Whether it's physical or spiritual, no other men are allowed. All the qualities you mentioned, I possess them. If you want to admire someone, admire me."

Ines was speechless as Ethan took her phone. He quickly deleted all the photos of Justin, set their recent photo as her wallpaper, and sent a copy to himself, setting it as his own wallpaper as well.

Ines watched his actions with a dumbfounded smile. She found his serious face quite cute at the moment and couldn't help but tease him.

"Ethan, you're fighting a losing battle. I can always download the photos again." Ines said with a smile, linking her arm with Ethan's.

Ethan lightly pinched her cheek, a charming smile on his face, "Mrs. Meyer, feel free to try. Let's see if you can download faster than I delete them. From now on, I'll check your phone every day after work."C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Ethan, do you really need to do this? Justin is married too." Ines widened her eyes.

"All the uncertainties gotta be nipped in the bud. Entertainment business is one hell of a mess." In other words, there was still a chance someone might try to snatch his wife away.

"Mr. Meyer, your wife ain't no rare gem." Ines said.

"Well, to me she is, and I won't allow any mishaps to happen." Ethan confirmed.
