Chapter 368

Liam had seen Ethan's name on Ella's phone screen. His sharp eyes narrowed slightly when he saw how quickly she answered, as if afraid of any delay. It got Liam thinking about whether something was going on between the two of them. "Hey, Ella, can you come meet us? We're at Hillside Park," Ethan said the moment the call connected.
