Watch Me Win Alpha (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 310

Chapter 310

“Nice driving,” Alexander complimented Gai. “If you hadn’t reacted so quickly, we could have gotten seriously injured.”

“Honestly, boss, I was just worried about your expensive car. I could never pay to get it fixed,” Gai admitted.

Olivia let out a surprised chuckle and a reluctant smile tugged on Alexander’s lips.

“Don’t worry,” he said as he took off his seatbelt. “I have insurance.”

He got out of the car to confront the idiot who had cut them off. Once Olivia got a good look at the car, she gasped.

It was Ethan’s red BMW.

“That’s Reed!” she told Alexander before he could get out of the car. “He’s Ethan’s driver. Let me talk to him. I can try to deescalate the situation.”

Alexander had already opened his door. He was considering her offer, wondering what the right call was. After a tense moment, he reluctantly shut his door.

Reed–a burly man with a bushy red beard–walked up to the passenger window. Olivia rolled it down and fixed a smile on her face, trying to remain calm.

“Hi, Reed!” she said, her voice much higher than normal. “We just left Ethan. He’s in the bamboo forest. He sent us away, saying that he needed some time alone.”

Reed narrowed his eyes suspiciously, but Olivia was already rolling up her window.

“Drive,” she whispered to Gai, who listened.

As Reed watched the fancy Rolls–Royce drive away, his shoulders slumped in relief. He waited on a bench by the bamboo forest. Reed was sure his boss would come out soon. He believed Olivia. She had never led him astray before.

But as the hours crept by, Reed began to grow uneasy. He kept spinning around to look at the forest, but he was deathly afraid of the dark, and he wanted to stay on the sidewalk where there were streetlights. But now it was the middle of the night and his boss still hasn’t come

out of the forest.

Finally, he saw a school security guard–identifying him because he was dressed in a black

and talking on a walkie–talkie. Reed stood and walked over to him.

“Can I help you, sir?” the guard asked and hovered his hand over his pocket. This was where he had a taser.

“Yes,” Reed said, then explained that his boss was last seen in the bamboo forest hours ago,

but he never came out.

The guard listened and frowned. Fear shot through him when Reed was finished. His boss would be pissed if a man was lost when he was on duty. “Come on,” he told Reed. “We can look for your boss on my golf cart.”

They hopped into the cart and sped through the forest. As the wind whipped through their hair, the two men’s eyes scanned the forest. But there was no sign of Ethan.

Finally, they got to the clearing and found Ethan sitting in the middle of the clearing.

When Reed spotted his boss, his eyes widened in shock. He hadn’t even recognized him at first.

The usual put–together man had his arms wrapped around his knees, and he was in a fetal position. He was rocking back and forth, muttering to himself. His face, clothes, and hair were covered in dirt. There was a freshly dug hole next to him, filling the air with the smell of dirt.

The guard froze as he watched the fully grown man break down in a dark forest. “Is…is he alright?” he asked, wondering if the man was mentally ill.

“He’s fine,” Reed said swiftly as he got over his initial surprise. “He’s just had a rough night.”

The golf cart ride back to the BMW was awkward, and Reed was relieved when the guard left them. Reed helped Ethan into the backseat, but as soon as he started the car, his boss burst into tears.

Reed shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He didn’t know whether to comfort his boss or ignore

his loud sobs.

Ethan cried into his hands and curled up in the back of his car. He was in so much pain. It felt like someone was kicking him in the stomach. For some reason, it took Olivia leaving him behind in the forest as he tried to dig up proof of their shared love for him to realize that

she didn’t love him anymore. How had it taken this long for him to understand her indifference for him?
