Sensing the tension in the air, Ethan stood up, picked up the documents on the table and left immediately. “You guys talk,” he said as he walked out.
There was a helpless look on Garrett’s gentle, strikingly handsome face. It was only when Ethan left that Garrett took his glasses off the bridge of his nose.
