章節 50: Beneath the Surface

Ethan and Lena pulled to a massive warehouse on the city's outskirts. The clock on the dashboard read 3:00 PM, and the area around them felt eerily quiet. It was a stark contrast to the buzzing metropolis just miles away. Ethan could sense the tension in the air as they exited the car.

As they stepped out, Lena glanced at him with a playful smirk. "You're rich, Ethan. Why on earth aren't you driving your own car? Or are you too humble for that?"

Ethan chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. "I've been a little too busy lately. Buying a car slipped my mind, but I'll get one soon enough."

Lena raised an eyebrow, clearly amused by his response. "Busy, huh? Well, make sure you pick something fitting. It wouldn't do to have the CEO of NovaTech walking everywhere."
