It was eerily quiet in the black luxury sedan.
Eleanor couldn't help but sneak a peek at Ethan.
He was calmly driving, occasionally adjusting the steering wheel.
There was no expression on his handsome face, and he didn't ask who the man was just now.
It seemed like he wasn’t interested in her business, as long as her heart stayed with him.
As Eleanor was guessing what he was thinking, Ethan suddenly asked her, "Is that man Bernard?"
Eleanor let out a gentle 'hmm' without saying much.
Ethan glanced at her and said, "Why do you know so many men?"
Eleanor thought: What's that supposed to mean?
A bit angry, Eleanor challenged him, "Are you interested in my past?"
After thinking for a moment, Ethan coldly replied, "Not really..."
If he wasn't interested, why did he ask?
Eleanor clenched her teeth and looked out the window.
The car soon returned to the villa, and Eleanor headed straight for the bedroom.
Before closing the door, Ethan's voice came from behind her, "Don't lock it."
Just as Eleanor was about to ask him not to walk around at night, since it was scary, she saw him slam the door shut, followed by the sound of the door locking.
Eleanor was speechless.
She was eager to see Hailey, eager to find out how much pain and hardship she had endured over the years due to her departure and Austin's betrayal to become a nightclub owner.
Tossing and turning, she couldn't sleep well all night, and it wasn't until morning that Eleanor felt a little sleepy and managed to doze off a while. When she woke up, it was noon.
She opened her eyes and saw a maid coming over with a gentle smile.
"Young lady, you're awake?"
Eleanor frowned, young lady?
The maid walked over, bent down, and asked her, "What would you like to eat for lunch?"
Eleanor snapped back to reality and asked, "Are you the nanny Ethan hired?"
The maid shook her head, "We work for the Ziegler family. Mr. Ziegler knew that young master was back, so he transferred us here."
Eleanor frowned deeper, wasn't Ethan supposed to be an architect? How did he become a young master?
The maid didn't elaborate further, but simply smiled at her, "Well then, shall I prepare some breakfast for you?"
Eleanor nodded slightly, "Thank you."
The maid replied, "My pleasure," and turned to leave.
