Chapter 2
The sound of the door closing echoed, leaving the scene silent for a long time.
My mind froze, unable to process what I had just heard.
Ethan drove straight to the hospital.
The sports car stopped by the roadside, and a girl in a hospital gown naturally got in.
“Dr. Yates, this car isn’t as comfortable as the one you used to drive,” she said coyly,
Her soft and sweet tone immediately set off alarm bells in my mind.
This scumbag–his mistress is his patient?
If she’s in pediatrics, she’s probably not even an adult yet.
My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly that my knuckles trembled.
Ethan affectionately patted her head, his voice unbearably gentle.
“Hannie, be good. I’ll stop driving this car, okay?”
“I’ll drive whichever one you like.”
Before I could process this, the passenger door opened from the outside.
“Hannie, pestering your godfather again? Did you take your medication on time today? Surgery’s coming up–you can’t slack off.”
The voice was so sugary it could drip.
Ethan immediately straightened up, pretending to tidy his hair.
“No, Hannie has been very good. I just took her out for a little relaxation before the
surgery.”
“Let’s go, Claire, the restaurant is already booked.”

The young girl scooted over, squeezing herself into a corner to make space for them.”
.
Only then did Claire get into the passenger seat.

When I saw her golden curls on the screen, I froze.
So it’s her.
I had seen her once at the hospital. Back then, Ethan mentioned her daughter had the same
ness as ours, both waiting for a kidney donor to save their lives.
I even sympathized, feeling we were in the same boat.
I told myself that if a kidney became available, I would cover the cost of her daughter’s
surgery.
But now, from what Ethan said, a donor had been found.
Why didn’t he tell me? Why hasn’t he arranged for our daughter’s surgery?
I had invested in that hospital and helped him become the department head precisely to secure a donor for our daughter as soon as possible.
Yet all my
efforts had been for these two scumbags!
A wave of fury at his betrayal swept over me.
I trembled as I pressed the fast–forward button, skipping their meal.
After dropping the girl back at the hospital, Ethan returned to the car. Together, they drove to the most secluded corner of the parking lot.
The doors locked, and they immediately clung to each other, kissing passionately.
“Claire, this hair color you dyed–it’s so beautiful…”
Ethan, like a beast unleashed from a cage, growled low as his actions became more frenzied.
Every expression on his face was something I had never seen before.
The We Got Lost
Chapter 2
At a critical moment, Ethan triumphantly pulled out a bottle.
“Try this. You said it hurt last time, this will make it not hurt.”
In his eagerness to open the bottle, the liquid splashed onto the windows, leaving marks everywhere.
Nausea surged in my throat as I slammed the cloth against the glass.
he fruity scent filled the air as I got out of the car without hesitation, slamming the door
shut.
These two scumbags wanted to step over me and my daughter to build their happiness?
Dream on!
