Chapter 171 My Room Is Soundproof


    The two packed Hannah''s belongings and took her to the city.


    However, Hannah didn''t like the idea. "I feel ufortable about moving into the city. You two are


    just married. I don''t want to bother you. Moreover, you both have to go to work, and I''m sure you''ll


    come home exhausted. I don''t want to be a burden to you. Moreover, I''m not used to living in the


    city either. The high buildings and wide roads frighten me. I won''t be able to chat with my friends in


    our vige anymore."


    "I''m not asking you to live with us forever. Stay here, in the city, so that we can avoid the debt


    collectors. I know you prefer living in the vige, but it doesn''t seem like a good idea now. We''ll send


    you back once the problem is over," Jforted her.


    Hannah sighed and nodded in agreement.


    Once they returned to the apartment, J vacated her room and put her personal belongings in


    Ethan''s room.


    "Why are you moving your things? Are you two sleeping in separate rooms even after being married


    for so long?" Hannah grabbed J''s arm and eyed her with concern. "Is that man not treating you


    right? Did you two fight?"


    Hannah squinted and looked at Ethan, who was busy cooking in the kitchen. J couldn''t help but


    smile at her concern. "No, we are fine. I''ve been working overtime, so Ie homete at night. I


    didn''t want to disturb Ethan''s sleep, so I chose to sleep in a separate room. Hannah, the long ride


    must have exhausted you. Do you want to take a nap in the bedroom?"


    "That''s good. I thought the handsome boy wasn''t treating you well." Hannah smiled, and the


    wrinkles around her eyes deepened like they always did. "All right. Don''t overwork yourself. Keep it


    simple. I''m old, and I live a simple life."


    J took all her clothes to Ethan''s bedroom so that Hannah could rest in her room.


    Just then, J felt a tight grip around her. Ethan chuckled, and the two rolled on the bed.


    J yelped in shock. "Why didn''t you make a sound beforeing inside? Stop it. Hannah is still


    in the next room."


    "My room is soundproof. Let''s give it a try," Ethan mumbled, biting her corbone. He pressed his


    body against hers. His loose ck shirt slid down, revealing his corbone. His chiseled jaw and the


    stubble made J weak in her knees.


    The intensity of his gaze made J''s hair stand on end. He tightened his grip, making it


    impossible for her to move. J whimpered under his hold.


    "Not now, Ethan! Let go of me." J was frightened. Ethan was aroused; it looked like he would


    pounce on her. It would be embarrassing if Hannah heard it. "Stop it! I need to discuss something


    important with you. We need to think about how to help Hannah."


    Hearing that, Ethan finally let go of her.

    He kissed the corner of her lips, leaned back on the head of the bed, and thought for a while. "Well,


    Hannah''s problem is quiteplicated. I read the document she has signed. The papers seem legit


    enough, and we can''t prove that Hannah was tricked or forced to sign the papers. Even if we go to


    court, I don''t think we can win this case."


    "What do you mean? We can''t pay the money. It''s three hundred thousand dors!" J sounded


    anxious.


    She had just started working, so her ie wouldn''t cover the debt. And she didn''t have much


    savings. Why else would she ask the Lind family to pay for Hannah''s medical expenses? Arranging


    for three hundred thousand dors was a nightmare. She didn''t know what to do.


    Ethan stared at the ceiling. "Well," he took a deep breath and said, "Since it''s impossible to win this


    case, I think the only solution is destroying the fraud gang."


    "What? How is that possible? Neither of us has the power or means to do that. If we were that


    powerful, we wouldn''t be worrying about arranging for the money in the first ce." J felt like


    they had hit the dead end.


    Ethan turned to look at her.


    It was impossible for Ethan to solve such a problem, but Brandon could. It was a piece of cake for


    him.


    He wanted to remind J but decided against it. If he mentioned Brandon first, it would only


    arouse her suspicion.


    Ethan smiled and pinched her cheek. Seeing that J was still upset, he pulled her into his arms.


    "Don''t worry. I''ll talk to my friends. Some of them are victims of fraudulent groups like these. I''ll ask


    them for advice. You stop worrying about it."
