But strangely, in the past two days, the missing person notice was suddenly withdrawn.
Elly Campbell frowned, preoccupied with her thoughts, naturally not paying attention to the gaze of the person in front of her, which was currently fixed on her face.
After pondering, Elly Campbell looked up at Ethan White and said coldly:
"Mr. White, your kindness is hard to refuse, so I will continue to impose and stay."
Having said that, she saw the corners of Ethan White’s lips curl up in satisfaction.
Elly Campbell didn’t give him another glance, sowhat annoyed, she pushed open the room door and slowly moved in.
She didn’t see the flash of sadness in Ethan White’s eyes when he saw her indifferent attitude.
But soon, this sadness was replaced by the frivolous deanor he had before. He blocked Elly Campbell, who was moving her body with difficulty ——
"Call ’dear brother’, and I will carry you inside."
Elly Campbell gave him a cold look and continued on her way.
Ethan White persisted, "If calling ’dear brother’ is too mushy for you, you can call ’little White’, or ’Ethan’, ’Ethan’ is fine too, I’m not picky."
Elly Campbell: "..."
Is it about him being picky?
Doesn’t she just clearly not want him to carry her?
Is her obvious refusal sothing he can’t see?
"Mr. White, I’ve said it before, we aren’t close."
"I’ve also said it, we’ll get familiar after you call a few tis."
Ethan White smiled nonchalantly, leaning against the door fra lazily, just watching Elly Campbell move towards a chair without any intention of helping her.
"How about you call ’Ethan’ and I call you ’Elly’? Our nas are so similar, it’ll definitely speed up our familiarization process," Ethan White continued.
Elly Campbell decisively refused to even spare him a glance, and after reaching the bed, she simply lay down, closed her eyes, and completely ignored him.
Ethan White walked in grinning, standing in front of her bed, seemingly intending to tease her, he said:
"You’re just lying down like this? Not even locking the door, aren’t you afraid I’ll force myself upon you?"
Elly Campbell still ignored him.
She felt that although Ethan White was a weirdo and annoying to talk to, her intuition told her he wasn’t soone who would take advantage of others.
Otherwise, having been here for over half a month, if he had any such ideas, he would have acted by now.
"Elly?"
He leaned in close to her and called out softly.
Because of the proximity, his warm breath on Elly Campbell’s face made her open her eyes irritably.
Ethan White didn’t expect Elly Campbell to suddenly open her eyes, and was montarily stunned.
Their eyes t, her pitch-black and clear yet blazing eyes reflecting his sowhat taken aback expression.
For a mont, he forgot to move away.
Elly Campbell opened her eyes just to show her disdain for Ethan White being too close and to shoo him away.
But she hadn’t expected that opening her eyes would result in such an embarrassing position, she froze for several seconds, then her expression turned cold.
"Mr. White, please behave yourself."
The stunned Ethan White suddenly snapped back to reality, realizing his montary lapse and embarrassingly coughed twice, before moving away from in front of her.
But he still teased her with his words: "To hold back with soone you like, isn’t that insulting your charm?"
He watched with a smile as Elly Campbell’s face turned colder, the amusent in his eyes spreading to the corners of his eyes.
Elly Campbell closed her eyes again, no longer paying attention to him.
Ethan White, either because he felt it was pointless to continue or perhaps his conscience was pricked, this ti decisively closed his mouth.
