Chapter 52
If possible, he didn't want to involve Chloe in his matters. After all,the Wilson family wasn't easy to deal with. One wrong move could lead to his own downfall, and he couldn't guarantee her safety.
She compromised and invited him again, "Alright, I'll give you some time to think. Once you've decided, feel free to find me. But before that, as a friend, I want to invite you for some coffee. You wouldn't refuse,would you?"
"Coffee? If you don't mind me bringing a friend, I would be delighted!” Ethan raised an eyebrow, turning his head to look at Jayden as he smiled.
Considering the circumstances and knowing she would likely persuade him to go to her place after they meet, he couldn't refuse Chloe's goodwill anymore.
"No problem,bring your friend along!" She gave him a coffee drop's address.
Just as Chloe ended the call, an old man's voice came from behind her,“Miss,Madam says you have a maximum of three more months.She hopes you can return sooner. Why are you still wasting time in Novaria?”
“I remember we made an agreement with the family before. They promised to not interfere with my life for two years. When the time is up, I will obediently return to accept their arrangements. Now, are you telling me that you won't even give me these last three months?"Chloe looked at the old man behind her. Her face showed a hint of refusal, but her eyes were filled with deep helplessness.
“Miss,please don't misunderstand. Madam heard about the incident where you were almost humiliated a few days ago, which infuriated her. She's just worried about your safety and seeks your return as soon as possible. If you want to stay in Novaria, I can only stay with
you to ensure your safety!" The old man hastily explained, his tone leaving no room for negotiation.
"What's the difference between this and monitoring me?" Chloe angrily questioned.
"I apologize, Miss, but this is Madam's bottom line. She doesn't want anything similar happening again. However, please rest assured as I'11 only come when you're in danger. I won't interfere with your life!"he solemnly assured her.
Chloe could only sigh and fall silent. Even though she was the Miller family's most cherished daughter,she couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Ten minutes later, Ethan and Jayden arrived at the café. They saw Chloe waiting for them at a booth on the second floor.
"So,the friend you mentioned turns out to be Mr. Wilson!" she exclaimed in surprise upon seeing them together.
"Miss Miller must be joking. I'm longer with Cloud Group, so I don't deserve the title Mr. Wilson anymore. You can just call me Jayden.”Jayden replied with a bitter smile,shaking his head.
Chloe was even more astonished. She only knew that Ethan had left Cloud Group, but she never expected Jayden to leave as well!
At that moment, Tim couldn't believe that right after leaving the company,Ethan was already having coffee with a beautiful woman.This angered him.
"Bring everyone along. This time, I'll make sure Ethan has nowhere to híde!" Tim immedíately commanded his bodyguard without hesitation.
"But Sir, Mike hasn't arrived yet! Shouldn't we wait a bit longer?"The bodyguard hesitantly suggested.
"Who's your Young Master right now? I can't wait for any longer! If you don't want to be puníshed, go and kill Ethan for me!” Tim angrily scolded, leaving the bodyguard with no choice but to lead his men and follow him straight to Ethan.
