章 316: Chapter 74.3 - Suspicions

"Well, I guess this is where we part ways," Ethan said, a hint of reluctance in his voice.

Jane nodded, a small smile playing on her lips. "Yeah. Thank you for spending time with me, Ethan. I really enjoyed it."

Ethan returned her smile, feeling a warmth spread through him at her words. "No, thank you, Jane. I had a great time, too."

They stood there for a moment, simply enjoying each other's presence before Ethan cleared his throat awkwardly.

"I guess I'll see you around then," he said, taking a step back.

Jane nodded, her smile widening. "Definitely. Take care, Ethan."

With one final wave, Ethan turned and walked away, his heart feeling lighter than it had in a long time. As he walked, he couldn't help but feel grateful for the unexpected friendship he had found in Jane, and he silently vowed to cherish it always.

And as he disappeared around the corner, Jane watched him go, a soft smile lingering on her lips.
