She then hung up the phone before Ethan could say a word.

The busy tone that came after his wife’s statement made Ethan’s face darken. He didn’t expect her to react like this. His fingers tightened around the phone as his heart sank.

“Can’t you drive faster?” he asked in a low, but impatient voice. The atmosphere in the car instantly became tense.
