Chapter 572 She Doesn’t Know
Dawn pressed her lips together. Staring at Hannah’s kind, honest face, she couldn’t bring herself to lie.
“I don’t know.”
The moment the words came out, her chest tightened.

She let out a weak smile. “Hannah, I still feel numb. I really don’t know what to do next. But I don’t think Ethan and I… are gonna end up together.”
Still, locking anything down felt too heavy. Life was long. Things changed.
She didn’t want to overthink anymore.
Right now, she didn’t care who was in her life. She just wanted out. Out of this ce, away from these people. Vincent, Will, Ethan… none of them had anything to do with her anymore.
Dawn took a deep breath. She forced a smile for Hannah’s sake. “But I swear I’m not gonna do anything reckless. I’ll take care of myself. I’m only in my twenties. I’ve still got so much ahead of me.”
“Yes, yes, of course you won’t…”
Hannah tried to speak, but her voice cracked halfway through. “You’ve still got a long way to go.”
Anywhere she ended up would be fine.
As long as she stayed okay, anywhere was fine.
Dawn saw the tears in her eyes and gave a small smile.
After breakfast, the two of them stepped out into the yard to water the flowers and talk. Dawn hadn’t sat and talked to an older woman like that in a long time. It helped. She felt lighter.
That night, they made dinner together in the kitchen.
“Dawn.”
“Yeah?”
Hannah checked her face again, like she was reading her expression. When she saw nothing off, she carefully said, “I know Ethan’s still thinking about you. And <i>you </i>haven’t picked a ce to go yet. Why don’t you stay here a little longer? Give him a chance. Just feel it out?”
Dawn stopped cutting the vegetables for a second, then went right back to it.
“Hannah, you don’t have to try and change my mind.”
“I see.”
So it was really over?
Hannah felt a knot in her stomach, but she knew emotions couldn’t be forced.

Back in her day, people still cared what others thought. Kids now? They didn’t care about any of that.
But maybe that was a good thing. At least they didn’t force themselves to suffer.
Her thoughts drifted. Neither of them said anything else.

Time passed. Then the sound of car tires came from outside. Hannah snapped back into focus. She nced at Dawn<b>, </b>still sorting through the celery. “Oh, Ethan’s back. He said you looked pale earlier. Said he wanted a doctor to check on you.”
As she spoke, Ethan stepped inside. Tall, sharp, dressed in a clean white shirt and a fitted zer. He walked straight toward them. He looked like he didn’t belong in the quiet kitchen.
But Dawn didn’t even look twice.
Her eyes went right to the doctor behind him.
She recognized the doctor.
That doctor was one of the top OB–GYNs from the hospital in the city.
“What are you doing in the kitchen?” His voice was gentle. He clearly wasn’t okay with it, but he sighed like he was scared to upset her.
He walked over, untied her apron, and picked her up in his arms.
He carried her to the living room.
The doctor followed right behind.
“Dr. Levanesque, her face hasn’t looked good since yesterday. Please take a look.”
“Of course.” Dr. Levanesque pushed their sses up and pulled out their bag.
Ethan stood nearby with such strong presence that she felt nervous. At first, Dr. Levanesque thought Dawn wasn’t married. Turned out she was. And clearly, her husband wasn’t just anyone.
The doctor moved carefully and checked everything.
Eventually, the exam wrapped up.
“Mr. Jackson<i>…</i>” Their tone said they needed to speak with him privately.
Dawn calmly adjusted her sleeves like none of it concerned her.
Ethan looked at her for a long second. Then he turned to the doctor. “This way, Dr. Levanesque.”
They stepped out together. The room went quiet again, except for the soft tter of Hannah working in the kitchen.
Dawn didn’t move. She just stared at the same spot, zoning out.
Minutester, another car arrived. Ethan had Tony drive the doctor back.
He stood at the door for a long time.

Dawn turned her head toward the tall window. He was standing outside, mostly hidden by the shadows. His silhouette flickered against the ss.
When he finally shifted, she looked away.
“Dawn.”
Ethan walked over and crouched in front of her. His voice was soft. “Do you feel okay? Dizzy? Weak?”
Dawn looked at his face up close and said tly, “Didn’t you already ask the doctor? Didn’t they tell you?”
“They said you’re a little anemic. You need to eat better.”
“What else?”
Ethan frowned. He paused for two seconds. “That’s all.”
A tiny smile tugged at her lips. She leaned in and spoke low. “Did you think I was pregnant?
“But Ethan, I’m not.”
She didn’t wait for a reaction.
She stood and walked past him. The scent she left behind brushed across his face, then vanished.
Ethan stayed crouched on the floor. The veins on the back of his hand popped as he clenched his fist. It took a long time for the pain to ease up.
Hannah finished cooking and ced the food on the table.
