First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 256

Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Caleb Lockwood and Claire Shaw Locked In Together

Serena Jennings’ eyes widened.

Ethan White’s handsome face was close at hand, his crescent-shaped eyes seemed to have tasted honey, smiling extraordinarily sweetly.

Serena’s chest tightened involuntarily.

She and Ethan had known each other for years and had been ambiguous for just as long.

But being pinned down by Ethan on the sofa was a first.

"Serena... I want to tell you..."

With warm breath, Ethan’s lips slowly moved to Serena’s ear, "I’m not impotent."

If not for the current position, Serena might have laughed out loud hearing Ethan say that.

However, at this moment, she was preoccupied with listening to her pounding heartbeat.

Seeing Serena’s fair face flush with a blush, Ethan felt parched.

He always prided himself as a gentleman.

But Serena in front of him was too tempting, he could not do nothing.

With his face cradled by Ethan’s hands, Serena held her breath.

She should push Ethan away.

But she didn’t want to hurt Ethan.

She knew Ethan liked her.

She also knew Ethan was someone worth loving.

However, all along, Serena didn’t consider her feelings for Ethan to be love.

Especially after the divorce from Caleb Lockwood, she wasn’t ready to start a new relationship.

Serena forcefully closed her eyes.

Suddenly she remembered that just last night, she was also pinned down on a sofa.

Only it wasn’t Ethan.

It was Caleb Lockwood.

Serena thought Ethan would kiss her.

But after closing her eyes for a moment, she felt Ethan let go of her.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to force you..."

Ethan apologized willingly, a bit of guilt and some disappointment in his eyes.

What he wanted to bring Serena was happiness.

He hoped Serena would willingly kiss him, not be compelled.

But just now, Serena’s expression was one of unwillingness.

Suddenly, Ethan recalled that Caleb Lockwood had just forced Serena last night.

He extended a hand, pulling Serena up from the sofa.

The atmosphere between them became a bit awkward.

The computer screen was still playing an inappropriate movie, but luckily without sound, or it would have been even more embarrassing.

"What do you plan to do with this?"

Ethan found an appropriate topic to shift away from the tension.

"I want..."

Serena turned her head and whispered a string of words into Ethan’s ear.

That night, Patrick Rhodes suddenly posted a sentiment on his Weibo and deliberately tagged The Lockwood Group and Claire Shaw.

Actually, these tags didn’t serve much purpose since the person behind The Lockwood Group’s account was not Caleb Lockwood.

Arthur Lockwood would never agree to let their official account acknowledge what Patrick posted.

As for Claire, ever since she went bankrupt, her Weibo was nothing but debt collectors.

What Patrick posted was: "Sister-in-law, no matter what happens, you’ll always be Brother Lockwood’s first love."

This immediately ignited the enthusiasm of netizens, many following suit, asking when Caleb Lockwood would marry Claire Shaw.

The focus shifted from Serena hiring loan sharks to gang-reap Claire, to who’s right or wrong between Serena, Claire, and Caleb Lockwood, then to Serena and Ethan being a match made in heaven, finally turning into Caleb Lockwood being locked in with Claire Shaw.

The Lockwood Group.

Caleb Lockwood sat in his office, closely monitoring the Lockwood Group’s stock price—

It was rising.

Initially, Arthur Lockwood was dissatisfied with the online sentiment, planning to hire influencers to suppress it, but after Claire’s incident, netizens autonomously crafted Caleb into a figure of deep emotion. The more people talked about him marrying Claire, the higher the group’s stock soared.
