Chapter 181


    Ethan noticed that Ines was feeling down, so heforted her. "Izzy, whatever decision you make,


    I''m with you all the way." Ines was twiddling Ethan''s hand. His fingers were distinct and strong. She


    said, "Ethan, I wish I could hear your opposition. I want to hear your righteous refusal. But you


    always support me unconditionally. It doesn''t make me feel any better."


    “Isn''t that what couples are supposed to do? Understanding and tolerating each other."


    "But I don''t want you to amodate me. It makes me feel like I''m taking advantage of you,


    enjoying everything you give me with peace of mind." Ines felt that no matter what she did, he never


    opposed, and this indulgence sometimes made her quite worried.


    “I really don''t know what you''re thinking. I''m your husband, it''s only natural for me to treat you well.”


    “I''m afraid you''ll get tired of me one day.” Ines was in his arms, her voice was very small, but Ethan


    heard it.


    Ethan gently rested his chin on top of her head, "I won''t, Izzy." He didn''t know if it was because of


    her memory loss, but sometimes she felt very insecure.


    Ines nodded slightly. To prevent Ines from overthinking, Ethan leaned down and kissed her lips. Ines


    lifted her slender arms and circled his neck, kissing him passionately.


    Ever since Ines was injured, they only shared a light kiss each day. Ethan was always considerate


    of her physical condition and didn''t dare to take it further. He was worried that he would be the one


    who would ultimately suffer.


    He roughly counted the days; the doctor said her body was fine now.


    Ethan became more intense. He even forgot that this was his office. He swept the files on the table


    to the side, let Ines sit on the office desk, and they continued to kiss.


    Ethan held her entire body in his arms. Just as the two were passionately kissing, the office door


    was pushed open. Noel looked at the two people engrossed in kissing, was stunned for a moment,


    then when he saw that the person in Ethan''s arms was Ines, he whistled and teased, "Ethan, you


    usually seem so aloof, I didn''t expect you to be so wild in private."


    Upon hearing Noel''s voice, Ethan immediately held Ines in his arms, looked at Noel unhappily, and


    said seriously, "Why didn''t you knock on the door when you came in?"


    Noel shrugged innocently, "I did knock. You guys were too engrossed and didn''t hear the knock. I


    thought you were asleep, so I just pushed the door and came in."


    At this time, Lucas ran in, and said to Ethan somewhat guiltily, "I''m sorry, Mr. Meyer. I couldn''t stop


    Mr. Noel."


    Ethan said, "Your performance bonus for this month is cancelled. If there is a next time, your bonus


    for the quarter will be canceled."


    Lucas looked at Noel with a look of grievance. Noel smiled innocently, patted Lucas on the shoulder,


    and said, "It''s okay, Lucas. If Ethan ever fires you, you cane to me. I always need a capable


    secretary like you."


    Lucas was speechless, nced at Noel, then told Ethan, "Mr. Meyer, you have a meeting at five


    o''clock that will take about twenty minutes of your time. The sales manager from the branch is


    coming to report the first quarter sales performance to you."


    Ethan nodded, showing that he already knew this, and Lucas left the office.


    Noel added to Lucas''s retreating figure, "Lucas, next time you talk so much nonsense, just tell me


    Ines is inside and I definitely won''t just barge in."


    Lucas staggered a step when he heard his words.


    Ines''s face was very red, and she kept her head down, not daring to lift it. Ethan looked at Noel, "If


    you have something to say, say it quickly, if not, please leave."


    Of course, Noel knew that Ethan was angry at him for interrupting them, said, "You didn''t answer my


    call, so I came over. I booked a private room tonight, and Aaron will alsoe over. We three can


    have a good time."


    Then he nced at Ines in Ethan''s arms, "Of course, you can bring your family."


    Ethan looked at Noel impatiently, "Got it. You guys go ahead first. I wille over after I handle my


    things. I might be a few minuteste."


    "Alright, then I''m leaving." Noel went straight out the door, and even mmed the office door on his


    way out, as if reminding them of something.

    After Noel left, Ethan lifted Ines''s head. When he saw her blushing face, he couldn''t help butugh.


    He pinched her face, "This isn''t the first time, why aren''t you used to it?"


    Ines hit him angrily and grumbled unhappily, "It''s always embarrassing. It''s all your fault, I''m so


    embarrassed now."


    Ethanughed and consoled her, "Don''t worry. Noel may not seem reliable, but he won''t gossip.


    And Lucas will definitely never leak it out."


    Ines red at Ethan. In her memory, this wasn''t the first time she lost control in his office, but this


    was the most embarrassing time.


    "Alright, don''t be angry. Go to the lounge and rest for a while. I have a meetingter, and we will go


    out for a gathering tonight."


    Ines nodded. She had heard Lucas mention the meeting earlier, so she went to the lounge to rest.


    As soon as Inesy on the bed, she received a text message from Noel.


    Ines looked at it, it read: Ines, I was a bit impulsive today. Can you please bring Phoebe tonight?


    Otherwise, it will be awkward for us singles with just you and Ethan.


    Ines was speechless, but she still called Phoebe. But Ines didn''t tell her that Noel would be there.


    Phoebe, who enjoys having fun, didn''t suspect anything and immediately agreed toe.
