After taking a shower, Janet came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her wet hair.

She pulled the towel off her head and started drying her wet hair. Her cheeks were slightly ruddy from the steamy bathroom, which made her look like a plump pink peach. Her eyelashes were wet and slightly plastered together, giving her eyes a doe-like effect.

As he looked at her, Ethan couldn't help but be reminded of a wild cat he had once seen on the roadside on a rainy day. That little wild cat had the exact same wide, doe-like eyes.

Just then, he noticed that Janet was observing him as well. Ethan frowned slightly. Under her piercing gaze, he felt as though she was trying to see right through his soul.

'I wonder what's on her mind?' he thought to himself.

Ethan leaned back into the sofa and looked back at her calmly. Finally, he said in a low voice, "Don't beat around the bush and go straight to the point."

He was always this casual and blunt, but his sudden seriousness still made Janet's hair stand on end.

"It's nothing. Just focus on your game." Janet guiltily averted her gaze and retreated to her bedroom, all the while still drying her hair. But before she went inside, she turned around to glance back at Ethan. It seemed that she couldn't take her eyes off of his hip.

'Oh, my God. His buttocks are so round!' Janet thought inwardly.

Just as she was about to enter the room, Ethan's deep voice interrupted her. "I forgot to ask—did you want to go somewhere for our honeymoon?"

Life tended to become dry and monotonous at times. Ethan reasoned that they needed to spice things up from time to time. Moreover, he wanted to make things up to Janet and give her all the best things in the world.

Janet hesitated slightly. She thought that it was a good idea, but she had just gotten back on track at work, so she couldn't take a leave anytime soon. "No, thanks. I'm so busy with work these days, so I don't think I have the time to go on a trip."

As she spoke, Ethan was gazing at the dark night from the window. Then, he closed his eyes and pressed his fingers against his temple.

It was the first time that he couldn't figure out what was on Janet's mind. He had already taken care of everything. Had he done anything wrong?

At ten o'clock that evening, the subordinate Ethan tasked with investigating the fraud group texted. It turned out that they had found the mastermind behind it all. To Ethan's surprise, it was an "acquaintance".
