    **Chapter 343: Camping**


    The sun hungzily in the sky as Ethan found himself cornered by his mother’s sharp words. “So, you’repensating for all those years of not dating by rushing into everything now, is that it? Huh?” Her voice dripped with disapproval, and the weight of her anger was palpable.


    Ethan felt the pressure of her scrutiny, a mixture of exasperation and disbelief swirling within him. Marriage, divorce, and now an engagement—was this really how he wanted to navigate his life? What did he think of Dawn? Did he even care?


    He raised his gaze, and the intensity of his mother’s fury mirrored back at him in his own eyes. For a moment, silence enveloped them, and he could feel his heart pounding in his chest. Then, after a brief hesitation, he swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing nervously. His voice emerged, low and gravelly, as if he were struggling to contain a tempest of emotions. “This is between us. Stay out of it.”


    “Stay out of it?” Tara’s voice rose, her earlier restraint crumbling like a fragile dam. “If I stay out of it any longer, you’re going to ruin everything! I don’t understand you at all. What do you want, Ethan? What do you really want?”


    “I don’t care what you want to do. You have to call off the engagement with Roxanne. I won’t agree to it.” His words were resolute, but beneath the surface, a storm of doubt raged.


    “So what? If you can announce it like it’s some kind of joke, then you can cancel it just as easily!” Tara’s frustration boiled over, and she was no longer ying games. “I’m telling you, not asking. If you won’t make the announcement, I will. Let’s see if you’re really willing to choose that woman over your own mother!”


    Her conviction stemmed from a ce of genuine concern. She believed Roxanne was utterly wrong for him. But there was also a deeper worry gnawing at her—had Ethan truly lost his mind? If he actually cared for Roxanne, wouldn’t he approach this situation with more seriousness and thought?


    Ethan’s expression darkened, frustration etching deep lines across his forehead. He clenched his jaw, fighting the urge to shout back. “Mom!”


    “What?” Tara snapped, her patience wearing thin.


    She had no intention of letting this conversation drag on. With determination, she grabbed her bag, her resolve solidifying. “You have three days. If it’s not resolved by then, I’ll make sure you remember—your mom is always your mom!”


    With that, she pivoted on her heel, her footsteps echoing sharply in the tense air as she stormed out.


    This was uncharted territory for them; they had never shed like this before. Tara had built up her courage, and she couldn’t let it slip away. The longer this standoff continued, the more her confidence might falter.


    Just as she reached the door, she paused, a thought striking her. “Oh, and by the way, I’m bored. Clear your schedule and take me out. Or else, I’ll tell the media what an ungrateful son you are!”


    With a swift exit, she left Ethan standing there, a mix of frustration and confusion swirling in his mind. She believed there was a misunderstanding between him and Dawn, and once they cleared it up, things would return to normal, wouldn’t they?


    The next morning dawned bright and clear, and Dawn received a phone call from Tara. “The weather is gorgeous today! Let’s go camping somewhere nearby!”


    Dawn felt a flicker of apprehension in her chest, a nagging intuition that Ethan would be joining them.


    Before she could respond, Tara’s voice turned somber. “Dawn, you’re not going back on your word, are you?”


    “No,” Dawn replied firmly, taking a steadying breath. “Just send me the location. I’ll pick you up.”


    As she drove to Tara’s location, she borrowed Victor’s phone to search for camping tips. She knew Tara would have everything nned, but since she had promised to keep herpany, she wanted to ensure that Tara had the best experience possible.


    With a few quick taps, she arranged for food, barbecue supplies, and even a bouquet of fresh flowers.


    Before long, she arrived at the meeting point and stepped out of the car, casually slipping Victor’s phone into her bag with a nonchnt air, masking any hint of concealment. “Keep a bit of distance, okay? Mrs. Jackson gets ufortable if you’re too close,” she advised Victor, who seemed poised to respond but chose silence instead.


    “Okay, Ms. Porter,” he replied, a hint of amusement in his tone.


    Just as they finished their exchange, Tara’s car pulled up.


    Dawn rushed over and opened the door for her. “Tara!”


    “Look at us, perfectly in sync! We arrived at the same time!” Tara eximed, her face lighting up with a radiant smile as she took Dawn’s hand. In that moment, they resembled sisters more than friends. “I’ve already set everything up. We just need to head straight there!”


    The suburbs around them were blooming with the vibrant colors of spring, the warm sunlight wrapping everything in a golden embrace. As they walked, theirughter filled the air, but soon, a figure approached to greet them. The manner of their interaction felt less like a professional staff member and more like corporate colleagues.


    Dawn’s heart skipped a beat, a sudden wave of anxiety washing over her. She struggled to maintain herposure, her breath hitching slightly.


    “Dawn?” Tara noticed her zoning out and gently shook her arm. “She’s asking us. Do you want beef ormb?”


    Dawn snapped back to reality, forcing a smile. “I already ordered barbecue and fruit. Someone will deliver itter. No need to trouble them.”


    “I see…” Tara didn’t catch the oddity in Dawn’s reaction. She turned to the woman beside them, her expression turning serious. “Did you hear that? Everything’s taken care of. So check what’s missing and get it over here, quickly.”


    The urgency in her voice was unmistakable.


    The employee nodded quickly, understanding the implication, and hurried off to ry the message.


    “Haha, young people these days are so energetic,” Tara said, trying to lighten the mood with a clumsy attempt at humor. Clearing her throat, she added, “Shall we head in?”


    “Sure,” Dawn replied, feeling a bit more at ease.


    The pleasant weather seemed to uplift their spirits as they ventured deeper into the campsite, which was idyllic—a lushndscape with towering trees and a crystal-clear river nearby, where fish danced in the sunlight.


    It was a perfect spot, yet it felt strangely secluded, as if they had stumbled upon a hidden gem untouched by the chaos of the world around them.Conclusion
