Chapter 825:
Only when his phone began to ring did he pause and reach into his pocket. Ernst’s nlit up the screen. “Did
you see the post | sent you?” Ernst asked.
Ethan's brows drew together ever so slightly. “I saw it. The PR team is already dealing with it.”
That answer didn’t sit well with Ernst, who let out a dissatisfied grunt. “That's it? Shouldn't you at least be
clearing things up with Brenna?”
“She’s not the type to jump to conclusions. Brenna trusts me. | don’t need to clarify things to her,” Ethan replied.
Across the room, Tina returned to Jayceon’s bedside, visibly irritated by Ethan's cold attitude toward her.
“Jayceon...”
Jayceon had caught the news earlier and had been watching Ethan closely ever since he walked into the room.
Ethan looked just like he always did—unbothered and indifferent. He didn’t even glance at Tina, making it clear
he wasn’t interested in her at all.
He looked like he wasn’t bothered by the situation at all. If anything, he seemed mildly irritated by Tina's
presence.
Ethan wasn’t one to wear emotions on his sleeve, but the subtle tension in his jaw and the cold distance in his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteyes made it obvious that Tina got under his skin. Yet, he said nothing, holding his tongue out of courtesy for
Jayceon.

different mothers and no real emotional tether, Jayceon believed letting Tina linger here had already been more
than generous.
“I'm not going anywhere. Ask Ethan what he thinks of me,” Tina said.
Jayceon scoffed. “Spare us both. | don’t need to ask—his face says it all. Quit embarrassing yourself. Get out.”
With a loud huff and an exaggerated stomp, Tina spun on her heel and exited the room.

Ethan ended his call and glanced toward Jayceon, curiosity flickering in his eyes. “You and Tina don’t really have
a good relationship, so why has she been showing up here so much lately?”
Jayceon, though still recovering from his injury, retained all his sharpness. He knew exactly what Ethan was
talking about. “You know why she’s here. Don’t play dumb. I'll make sure she doesn’t bother you again.”
Ethan's tone carried a warning. “Make sure she stays away. | won't be so civil next time.” The only reason he
hadn’t done anything to Tina last night was out of the respect he still held for Jayceon.
