Love Hidden in the Bones novel Chapter 7

He confidently put away his phone, taking it for granted that I would be anxiously trying to please him.

I smiled bitterly.

Ethan, you won't get it.

Aaron walked in with his briefcase. He had a collaboration with the public sector, and after a perfunctory exchange with Ethan, he submitted a document stating that the case was indefensible due to the lack of evidence left by the criminals on the bodies.

After arranging his work, he ran his fingers through his hair irritably, "Ethan, did Stella reply to your message?"

"I called my wife more than ten times, but she didn't answer a single one."

Then I saw Ethan suddenly clutching his chest.

Perhaps triggered by the words 'pregnant,' he pulled Aaron aside and instructed, "When the identities of the deceased are confirmed, give their families more compensation."

Aaron nodded and was about to leave when his phone rang.

It was a call from the hospital's psychiatric department.
