301 Worse Condition.

Ethan gave a curt nod, casting a brief glance at her face before turning back to stare out of the car through the rearview mirror.

"You look shaken," he noted.

"Yeah," Ruthlyn replied. "I saw Shikera in the lobby and thought she found out already. But she said she came here just to visit her doctor."

His brows furrowed slightly but his lips remained shut. Instead, he started the car and drove away. The only sound in the silent car was that of Ruthlyn's finger typing away on the keyboard of the laptop on her legs.

She looked up only after a few minutes and stared out of the car, noting the surroundings.

"Where do you plan to drop me off?" she asked, seeing that they were almost at DL Corporation which she handled while Enoch handled Anderson Corporation.

"Where do you want me to?" Ethan returned the question.

Ruthlyn took her time in answering the question, avoiding Ethan's gaze as she looked down at the laptop's screen.
