Chapter 106

It was already late at night. There were no buses, and only a few taxis were available.

Ethan and Janet slowly walked back along the quiet road.

Janet hadn’t stopped crying ever since they left the Lind family’s house.

Ethan took off his jacket and wrapped it around Janet, holding her in his arms. He was now wearing
only a white T-shirt that clung to his chiseled body.

“Don’t you want to ask me something?” Janet sniffed and looked up at him. The pool of tears in her
eyes sparkled under the dim streetlight.

“Well, I have a lot to ask. I just don’t know where to begin.” Ethan wiped the tears from the corner of her
eyes with his thumb. His calm, resonant voice made her cry harder.

Ethan couldn’t watch her break down before him.

Crying was one thing he didn’t like about Janet. He wanted to make sure she didn’t shed a tear again.

“When I was one year old, Bernie and Fiona adopted me. But a year later, Jocelyn was born. Since
they had a daughter of their own, they stopped caring about me. Hannah was a maid in the Lind family.
She was the one who raised me. I was living with Hannah in the countryside before I grew up and
came to the city. Bernie and Fiona gave Hannah some money every month. However, that was not
enough to meet our expenses. They didn’t bother increasing the monthly allowance. Hannah bought
things for me with her money. She doesn’t have any family, and I have been taking care of her. She is
all I have. Now, to make things worse, Fiona has secretly intercepted the liver for Hannah’s transplant. I
don’t know how long it will take to find another donor. I don’t know how she is going to manage.”

Janet sniffed, gasping for breath. Ethan pulled out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her. Seeing
Janet hitching with sobs, he pulled her into his arms.



“So you told me about your deal with them in a fit of anger?” Ethan asked softly, his chin resting on her
head.

He felt sorry for her.

He had thought that Janet was an optimistic carefree woman but didn’t think she shouldered a lot of
burden and responsibilities on her own.

“It was because they broke their promise.” Leaning against his strong chest, Janet frowned and
complained like a child.

Her answer amused Ethan. He hailed a taxi and pulled her inside.

Janet hugged him tighter and pressed her face against the crook of his neck. “Don’t worry!” Ethan
stroked her hair. “I have a lot of friends. I’ll help you figure something.”

Janet’s head became hot and heavy after all the crying. She felt sleepy. Ethan’s embrace comforted
her. She rubbed her cheek against his chest and snuggled up to him.

Silence fell. The ride was quiet, except for the whooshing of the wind.

“I’ve lying to you the whole time. Aren’t you mad at me?” Janet asked, interlacing her fingers with his.

‘How could every part of his body look beautiful?’ She looked at the blue veins running across his
muscular hand in awe.

Ethan let her play with his hand as he watched her intently. The flickering light cast a soft glow on his
face.

He put his other arm around her shoulder and sighed. “When I found out that you deceived me, I was
furious. But later, I was simply glad that I didn’t marry Jocelyn. Fortunately, it was you”
