Chapter 35: Trust You as I Trust Myself
Chapter 35: Trust You as I Trust Myself
"I will do my best to change into the way you like. In the future, I will trust you as I trust myself."
Annetta finished what she wanted to say in one breath and looked at the man uneasily.
She had said these things to gain Ethan's trust because she had misunderstood him too deeply in her
previous life. If she was being frank, in the past, it was like she had been bewitched to only have that
scumbag, Caleb, in her heart.
In her new reincarnated life, she was acutely aware of who was good to her and who was not.
Ethan did have an overbearing and morbid possessiveness towards her. But besides that, he was one
of the only ones in the world who was good to her. She hoped that she would be with him forever since
she chose him in this life.
She understood that she first needed to do her part if she wanted to gain the trust of others. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
It would not be just empty talk, but she would also keep her word. She hoped that Ethan would give her
a chance.
Ethan did not say anything for a long time after Annetta had finished speaking. Just as Annetta's heart
was about to sink because he was so silent, he replied with a single word, "Okay."
Annetta raised her head, pleasantly surprised and expressed her happiness, "Ethan, I knew that you
are the best!"
After that, she leaned over and kissed the man on the lips. The man's pupils dilated the moment her
soft lips touched his.
The little girl scooted back a little and smiled after she had finished kissing him, like she had taken big
advantage of him.
Young Master Ethan looked at the little girl who was smiling at him. Her eyes sparkled, as if there were
a thousand stars contained in those pupils, bright enough to break through the darkest of nights, and
he was deeply moved.
Annetta felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off her shoulders after talking to him and finally
relaxed after being tense for an entire day. She rubbed her eyes and said, "Ethan, I'm a little tired. I
want to take a nap. Wake me up when we reach home."
"Okay."
As long as she was obedient, he would listen to her.
Annetta stretched out his hand towards Ethan and said in a lazy and sweet voice, "I want to sleep in
your arms!"
The man who had always been good at business plans stiffened. It was because he had always forced
her to hug him, not because he had never hugged her before. This was the first time she had
requested a hug.
The man was even a little out of practice.
Just then, the little girl threw herself into his arms, holding his waist, leaning against him comfortably,
and shutting her eyes.
The man paused for a moment, and stiffly held her, gazing at her soft and clear face. Her gentleness
had defeated the rage in him.
All was still in the car. Ethan saw that Annetta was in a deep sleep and did not wake her at all. When
they reached home, he carried her out of the car and tucked her into bed. He watched her sleep for a
long time before leaving.
Howard was waiting at the bedroom door. He immediately reported to Ethan when he came out,
"Young Master Ethan, I have confirmed that Miss White went to the hotel to buy hawthorn slices. The
hawthorn seller is a freshman from North University. He rented Room A202 at the hotel to do a live
stream and sell his dry goods. I brought the seller over in case you wanted to interrogate him..."
"No need." Ethan's deep voice sounded from the entrance.
In the room, the "slumbering" Annetta opened her eyes and smiled.
Everything had gone according to plan.
Like in her past life, as part of Caleb and Carla's scheme, Caleb had invited her to meet him at the
hotel.
Maybe it was due to The Butterfly Effect, the difference was, Caleb had asked her to meet at the hotel
earlier than last time.
In addition, Annetta had provoked Carla at the Powell’s. Therefore, Carla’s plan was even more vicious
than the one in Annetta’s previous life. In this life, instead of university mates, Caleb was waiting to
destroy her reputation and innocence.
The best scenario would be for Ethan to come in and catch them in the act. Carla even had a backup
plan if Ethan did not make a personal appearance.
Before Annetta's arrival, Carla had hidden a phone in the wardrobe to record everything. Giving the
video to Ethan would have the same effect. Maybe it would be even better if she edited it!
