"We are whispering."

""Can you eat while looking at me?" He noticed her gaze fixed on him.

Her gaze on him was burning, carrying an indescribable sense of admiration.

"I can't take it if you keep looking at me like that." His voice was as cold as ever.

But he was adept at using that detached, worldly tone to make her blush and at a loss for words.

She held her chopsticks between her teeth: "Really, can't you take it?"

Ethan Ainsley glanced at her, as if to say: find out for yourself.

With a plan in mind, Lola Hussey looked down and quickly started eating. After finishing, she got up: "I'm busy tomorrow, so I have to rest."

She left the table and went straight up to her bedroom.

Ethan Ainsley watched her hurried figure, unable to help but laugh.

He had just come to join her for dinner, but she ate quickly and left, leaving him to eat alone, without even keeping him company.

Having lost his appetite, he ate a few bites and stopped, then went upstairs to talk to her.

But the door was locked.
