Maybe it was just Lawrence’s imagination, but after Dawn finished speaking, the air around them seemed to thin out.
It looked like he shouldn’t copy those etiquettes in the future–there was clearly something to them.
The group them.
chatted as they walked inside, encountering quite a few people who came to greet
More than anything, people wanted to cozy up to Ethan.
However, he had absolutely no intention of socializing today. His eyes were dark, staring unblinkingly at one person.
Those who knew realized that was Dawn, and the two seemed to have aplicated rtionship.
Those who didn’t might have thought he was her bodyguard.
She didn’t drink, but from the corner of her eye, she saw a certain man downing multiple drinks without stopping.
She sighed and smiled gracefully at the person beside her. “Excuse me, I need to use the
restroom.”
She’d barely entered the corridor when footsteps followed behind her.
They <i>got </i>closer and closer.
At the restroom entrance, Dawn’s wrist was suddenly grabbed and yanked to the side. In an instant, Ethan had her pinned between himself and the wall.
His breathing was heavy, yet he still managed to free one hand to close the door and lock it.
Dawn raised her head, his reflection filling her clear eyes.
“What are you doing, Mr. Jackson?”
“Dawn.”

“I’m not.”
“You are.”
Dawn fell silent and stopped talking.
There was no point arguing with someone who’d been drinking.
Ethan stared at her face, then suddenly went along with her. “What’s your name? Ms. West …
Dawn scoffed. “Mr. Jackson, your pickup line is rather unique. If I were to call the cops, you’d be arrested. This is sexual harassment.”
Their bodies were pressed close together, their breaths mingling, thick and clear, especially obvious in the quiet restroom.
Ethan’s dark gaze enveloped her, leaving no room to breathe.
They stayed like that for a while.
He suddenlyughed softly. “Want me to call the police for you?”
Dawn was dumbfounded.
“Since you’re already using me of harassment, wouldn’t it be a shame if I didn’t actually do something?”
Dawn secretly gritted her teeth. After three years apart, this man’s shamelessness had only be more refined.
She red at him. “Let go!”
“No.”

Ethan even tightened his hold, as if afraid she’d disappear, stubborn and resolute. “Don’t leave, okay?”
His voice was incredibly low. When it reached her ears, it made them tingle.
He’d definitely improved.
He wasn’t just more shameless; he’d learned to sound pleading too.
She took a light breath, forcing herself to ignore the turbulence in her heart, saying tly, “Whether I leave or not doesn’t seem to be your business.<b>” </b>

“How is it not my business?”
Ethan’s eyes
trembled as he leaned forward.

He easily buried himself in the curve of her neck.
His handsome face was hidden. Dawn felt a crisp masculine scent fill her nostrils as he said in a low voice, “Honey, I don’t want a divorce.
“Please don’t.
“Okay?”
Dawn was speechless.
Her breath caught. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
He was the one who’d said he wanted a divorce.
He was the one who’d handed her the divorce papers to sign.
Three years had passed, and he thought a simple, offhand deration against divorce could mend something long since broken.
It was simply…
Impossible.
Dawn’s chest rose and fell. It took her a long while to suppress the bitter ache rising in her heart.
Her low, hoarse voice was very soft. “Ethan, back then, even when I was at my most desperate, I never thought about giving up. It was you. You were the one who didn’t want this marriage first.”
Things once lost weren’t so easy to get back.
Even if you
could get them back, they’d never be the same.
He didn’t speak, stayingpletely still.
Dawn didn’t struggle either, letting him lean against her.
After a long while, she even thought he’d fallen asleep, but Ethan slowly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes dark.

Veins bulged on the back of his hand as his long fingers moved up along Dawn’s shoulder to cup her jaw.
He gazed at her intensely for a few seconds.
Then, he lowered his head and kissed her.
The kiss wasn’t deep, just lingering on the surface. The contact between their lips was so delicate that even the texture of each other’s lips could be clearly felt.
It was filled with heartache, tenderness, yet utterly cherishing.
The atmosphere gradually heated up.
Dawn kept her eyes open, watching his face, watching his eyes trembling uncontrobly, watching the moisture at the corners of his eyes.
Her hand hanging at her side lifted, then dropped back down.
Just as the kiss was gradually spiraling out of control, a knock came at the door.
“Who’s in there? Why is the door locked?
“Hey! Open up!”
Ethan smiled and finally let go.
His
eyes
held obvious desire that was impossible to ignore.
Dawn’s gaze swept downward.
The undeniable physical reaction was making itself known.
She drew in a sharp breath and stepped back half a pace, saying irritably in a hoarse voice, “Mr. Jackson, you should take care of that quickly. Going out like this would be hard to exin.”
