Obedience No More He's the One I Deserved novel Chapter 137

This was the promise that Dawn could give Ethan right from the start.

However, it seemed like he already had something planned for that day. Dawn had no idea who Ethan was planning to invite or where they would be.

Thinking about it made Dawn a little nervous.

Two days passed, and the day finally arrived.

As usual, Dawn woke up and headed downstairs to help Hannah with breakfast.

Hannah kept glancing at Dawn and asked with a mysterious tone, "Dawn, do you know what day it is today?"

Dawn's eyes flickered slightly, and she sighed, "I have to work today too. Hannah, you have no idea how busy we are. I still have to do the final review."

"What are you reviewing?" Hannah asked.

Then, with an additional tone of anxiety, she added, "I wasn't talking about work. Think again!"

"What? I have nothing else going on," Dawn answered.

"Come on, try to think about it again!"

Dawn glanced toward the staircase and spotted Ethan's long legs as he walked down the steps.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled, "There's really nothing else going on. Hannah, let's eat."

Hannah had spotted Ethan as well, so she couldn't say much more. These two youngsters will drive me crazy with anxiety! Hannah thought.

Both Dawn and Ethan greeted each other casually and started eating without talking about any plans for the day.

Hannah quietly thought to herself.

I can't let this go on! I'll have to move up the plan!

Ethan and Dawn hadn't noticed anything different about Hannah and occasionally made small talk as they ate.

They finished breakfast, and Ethan glanced at Dawn as they left the house. She seemed to be acting as usual, and finally, he couldn't resist asking, "Are you working late today as well?"

Dawn's eyelids twitched, but she kept pretending she didn't know a thing. "No, didn't you ask me to keep this day free?"

Ethan nodded, "Yeah."

"So are you going to tell me what's going on?"

Dawn put both her hands behind her back and leaned in closer. "Is someone getting married?"

"No."

"Then ... do we have an important function?" Dawn asked again.

"Not that, either," Ethan answered.

"So what is it?" Dawn pouted, looking like she was losing interest in the conversation. "So, are we just going to eat? Fine, just come and get me after work."

Ethan's deep gaze lingered on Dawn. He looked as if he wanted to say something. Finally, he seemed to decide against it and just said, "Okay."

"I'll head to the office first. I have a meeting this morning."

He had never been this nervous in his life. Ethan ... you're in trouble.

Before the call connected, she quickly cleared her throat.

"Hello?"

Ethan's pleasant voice came from the other end of the line as he answered the call. Dawn's heart thumped wildly, but she spoke in a calm voice, "I forgot you were coming to get me, so I've already taken my car. Send me the location, and I'll meet you there directly."

Ethan was silent for a few seconds before he spoke, "Alright."

"Then I'll see you ... "

Ethan interrupted her, "Dawn."

"Yeah?"

Ethan had called out to her, but it was almost as if he didn't know what to say.

Ethan's voice seemed to carry unspoken words. "Drive safe."

"Okay, you too."

Dawn hung up and took a deep breath.

She gripped the steering wheel tightly, imagining where she would begin when she saw Ethan later. However, anything she came up with didn't seem to sit right.

Finally, she let out a laugh.

Honestly, it doesn't matter how I do it, right?
