    Chapter 240 You Are Going to Ruin Him


    Every move they made was being watched by someone else.

    Just thinking about it sent a chill down Dawn’s spine, but then she noticed something. “The handwriting’s different fromst time.”


    Ethan’s eyes darkened, unreadable as ever.


    He just gave a low “Yeah,” then turned and took Dawn’s hand. “Let’s head home first.”


    A breeze rustled the dead leaves overhead, and the space in front of the vi was utterly deserted. It was as if the letter had just materialized out of thin air.


    After something like this, Ethan didn’t want Dawn to go to work alone, so he asked Tony to drive her.


    “What about you?”


    “I’m going to look into this.”


    Ethan didn’t hide anything from her this time. Holding both the old note and the new letter, he said, “I don’t care if this is a real threat or some kind of prank. I want to see just how well this person can cover their tracks.”


    Dawn knew Ethan had a lot of tricks up his sleeve, but for some reason, she felt like this was much moreplicated than it seemed.


    She shoved down her worry and stepped forward to hug him.


    “Promise me you’ll be careful. Seriously.”


    Ethan didn’t respond, but his eyes sparkled with emotion.


    After Dawn left, he had security pull the neighborhood’s surveince tapes. The ce was tightly managed–normally, even food deliveries had to go through the main reception desk, and strangers had to sign in.


    But there was no record on the log.


    “Mr. Jackson, only one person came in this morning—a repairman.”


    On the footage, a man in work clothes appeared, his face hidden by a cap and a mask. As he passed the vi, he nced around to make sure no one was watching, then tossed something

    over the fence.


    It was the letter.


    Ethan pinched the bridge of his nose, staying silent.


    The mood was suddenly tense. The security staff traded nervous nces.


    “Um… Mr. Jackson, do you want us to call the repairpany and ask about the guy?”

    “No need.” If someone was using a fake identity, there was no way they’d leave any clues behind.


    Ethan wrote down the license te of the repairman’s car and went back inside.


    Then he sent the photo to Brogan.


    “Track this fake–ted car and find out where it came from.”


    Brogan replied with a question mark. “You’re sure it’s a fake te without checking?”


    “If they didn’t use a fake, they wouldn’t bother hiding their identity.”


    “Got it.”


    Done texting, Ethan put his phone down and started studying the two notes all over again.


    He didn’t think Joe was behind it directly—but was hepletely in the clear?


    Maybe, maybe not.


    The note with Joe’s handwriting had said “Don’t marry Ethan,” but after they tied the knot, nothing really happened.


    And about this letter telling Dawn to get a divorce …


    Whoever sent these didn’t want Dawn and Ethan together.


    <i>Who </i><i>would </i><i>actually </i><i>benefit </i><i>from </i><i>keeping </i><i>them </i><i>apart</i><i>? </i>


    <i>Austin</i><i>? </i>


    The thought made Ethan frown, but he dismissed it almost instantly.


    Austin was the type to make a scene in person, not pull stunts like this. If he wanted to make

    trouble, he’d have shown up at the wedding and made a scene–not sent some anonymous letters.


    He still didn’t have any real answers. But at least for now, the person behind it didn’t seem to want to hurt Dawn.


    Ethan leaned back and let out a long sigh.

    When she arrived at the office, Tony asked, “Ms. Porter, do you want me to go in with you?”


    She nced at the lobby. People were rushing by, busy as ever. She shook her head. “No, you can go back to your boss.”


    She headed for the elevator.


    Even though she’d told Tony no, Dawn couldn’t rx until she’d made it inside the building.


    She only let out a sigh of relief until she was actually in the office.


    As soon as she looked up, she was surprised to see a familiar face in the lounge area.


    It was that moody, unpredictable kid–Micah. He had a whole lineup of food in front of him. Who knew if he’d brought it or asked the receptionist to order it for him.


    Not that he was eating any of it. He just sat there with his cap pulled backward. A few strands of hair were poking out from under his cap. He sat with his arms crossed, looking both smug and immature. <fn104b> Fresh chapters posted on Find~Novel</fn104b>


    Dawn gritted her teeth and tried to pretend he wasn’t even there.


    She headed for her office.


    “Didn’t take you long to lose your head after getting married, huh? I was right. Dawn, you’re not good enough for Ethan.”


    She stopped in her tracks, then turned back to stare him down before walking right up to him.


    She put one foot on the couch, elbow on her knee, leaning forward with a re. “Kid, you’re pretty full of yourself.”


    Micah stared her right in the eyes, mocking her. “At least I’m better than you.”

    “I actually care about Ethan. But you … you’re just settling for him because what you really wanted.” He saw her eyes narrow and smirked even more. “I told you–you’re going to ruin him.”


    Dawn’s anger faded, reced by a strange calmness. She sat down beside him. The spilled sunlight shone down on her, catching the fine hairs on her face.
