My Fair Stunner novel Chapter 378

Chapter 378 I am Just Being Down to Earth

Back-burner?

Ethan snorted lightly after hearing that word.

Owen realized instantly that he had misunderstood the situation after hearing Ethan's reaction from the other end. Then, he asked, "Ethan, tell me the truth. Who exactly is that dance teacher?"

Ethan said emotionlessly, "A friend."

Friend?

What kind of friend?

That identity could be quite vague.

Owen was unsure of Ethan's feelings towards Violet within that short time. After thinking for a while, he said, "Ethan, let me explain it to you in person. It's a long story."

Ethan said, "Meet me at Marriott."

After Ethan finished speaking, he hung up the call. He turned the steering wheel and pulled the car over on the shoulder.

When the car stopped, Violet, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned to look at Ethan.

Ethan wound down his window slightly and took out the cigarette case from his pocket. He held a cigarette diagonally in his mouth, and lit it with his hand covered to block off the wind, "I shouldn't have asked about your personal life but now it seems like I have to."

After Ethan finished speaking, he paused and continued, "The person who called me just now is called Owen. His family has some power in Cocanel. What have you done to offend him?

Violet was wearing a cool-toned, thin, down jacket on that day, which brought out her fair complexion.

Violet took a shallow breath and answered, "I didn't do anything that offend him. It was my ex-boyfriend who owed him money."

The cigarette at the corner of Ethan's mouth trembled slightly, "Ex-boyfriend?"

Violet looked at Ethan and said flatly, "We broke up."

Ethan had never been interested in other people's privacy. He didn't want to know why did they break up. So, he asked the key point directly, "Why did he ask you to pay back the money that he owed?"

Violet answered, "He lied to those people by saying that we didn't break up, and told them that I would pay them back on his behalf."

She spoke in a very calm manner as if she was talking about other people's stories.

Ethan took a thorough look at her, removed the cigarette from the corner of his mouth, and popped it out of the car window. Then, he drove the car back onto the main road.

As the car moved slowly, Violet started to say, "Don't worry. I will explain to that person and tell him this has nothing to do with you."

Ethan raised his eyebrows and asked, "To who?"

Violet replied, "That person with the name Owen?"

Ethan smiled but didn't respond to her.

Half an hour later, they arrived at Marriot.

As soon as Ethan got off the car, Owen, who was standing on the steps, trotted to welcome him, "Ethan, here you are."

After Owen finished speaking, he handed Ethan a cigarette.
