Seven Years of Marriage with Jake

Book 2- Chapter 8

After the reunion, on the way back, Mia threw herself into Ethan's arms: "Ethan! They called me a mistress, it's so awful!"

"Mia, be good, wait a little longer. It would be too suspicious if I married you right after Ava Sinclair's car accident."

"In a few more days, we can first cash in the lottery ticket. I'll take you to buy a mansion, then marry you. Okay?"

Ethan gently stroked her head, his face full of doting affection.

That's my lottery money!

"But Ethan, what you did is too risky. What if they discover the problem with the car? What will you do?" Mia's face was full of concern.

What did she say?

Problem with the car?

Ethan put a finger to her lips: "Shh! The car exploded, no one will find out. Besides, even if it hadn't exploded, with that nine-year- old clunker, any malfunction would be normal, right?" So the brake and accelerator failure was his doing?!

So the airbags not deploying wasn't due to age and poor maintenance?!

So that's why even with such joyous news of winning the jackpot, he took so long to come home?!

Indeed, how professional of him! Who could discover it?
