On the way, Ethan asked Dawn to call home and say they wouldn’t be back for dinner. She did as he said, then tilted her head and asked, “Why aren’t we going home to eat?”
He nced at her. “There’s a new Southeast Avoria restaurant on the east side of town. Alice said it’s good, so I want to take you to try it.”
“Southeast Avoria food? Why didn’t you ask if I even like it first?”
“Doesn’t matter.”
“Wow, your mouth is 98.6 degrees but somehow still this cold!”
“Shouldn’t Ms. Porter know better than anyone if my mouth is cold or not?”
<i>He’s </i><i>never </i><i>serious</i><i>! </i>
In the rearview mirror, Ethan caught a glimpse of Dawn’s stunned look and chuckledzily. “It’s not what we eat that matters; it’s who we’re eating with. My friends told me it was good, and I just wanted you to try it. If you really don’t like it, we can go somewhere else.”
Dawn turned to look at him. The light inside the car was dim, and the streetlights shing by made his face look almost magical.
She suddenly felt a little dazed.
“Ethan.”
“Yeah?”
“Don’t be so good to me.”
She turned her head away, her smile so faint it looked like it might vanish with the next breeze. In a low voice, she said, “Just be normally good.”
Ethan raised his brows, his dark
eyes
unreadable.
After a while, the light ahead turned red.
He stepped on the brake and turned to her, half–smiling. “You’re my girl. Of course you should have the best the world has to offer. Otherwise, people out there mightugh at me.”

Chapter 174 Are You Happy?
The thought made Dawn chuckle to herself.
:
The topic ended there, and they soon arrived at the restaurant.

The ce was beautifully designed and peaceful. In the main hall, there was a big winding water feature. The mix of modern style and natural touches felt just right.
The restaurant was made up entirely of private rooms, so it was very private.
Ethan had already ordered, and the server knocked on the door and came in a little whileter.
Dawn looked up and suddenly saw a familiar person walking by behind the server. She frowned and wondered if she was seeing things.
Ethan asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
Dawn took a sip of the water he had poured for her, deciding she was mistaken. “I just saw someone who looked like Austin … I must have been mistaken. Sydney said she couldn’t find him today. But of all ces, he wouldn’t be here, right?”
There was no way it could just be a coincidence.
Ethan’s eyes shifted slightly, but he didn’t say anything.
The food was surprisingly good, and Dawn ate a lot without even realizing it. She ate thest bite of the garlic butter crab, put down her fork, and said, “I can’t eat anymore. I need to go to the restroom.”
When people get what they want, they’re naturally in a good mood.
Dawn went to the restroom, taking in the scenery along the way. After washing her hands, she pulled a paper towel to dry them.
As she threw the used paper towel into the trash, she looked up and froze to see the person in the mirror. “Uncle Austin …
“I
There was no light where Austin was standing, so his face couldn’t be seen. The surrounding darkness seemed to wrap around him, making his cold presence feel even more intense.
It took him a moment to walk over, and his indifferent features slowly came into view.
“Are you happy?”

She subconsciously took a half–step back, but with nowhere else <i>to </i>go, she braced herself against the sink. In a low voice, she asked, “Uncle Austin, what are you doing here?”
Austin said, “Why didn’t you answer my question?”
<i>What </i>was <i>he </i><i>asking</i><i>? </i>
<i>Happy</i><i>? </i>
Dawn pressed her lips together and didn’t say anything. <fn73f4> Latest content published on Find_Novel(.</fn73f4>
She saw the man’s shiny shoes take another step closer. His cold voice had no emotion. “It seems you’ve forgotten that even though you didn’t change yourst name, you’ve already been an Osborne for a long time.”
Dawn clenched her hands, and her tense face made her lips shake a little.
She couldn’t argue.
They had raised her, and that kindness was greater than anything.
Besides, the Osbornes really had treated her well.
Austin looked down and could only see the top of her soft hair. She looked like she was quietly listening to him, but her hands at her side were clenched so tight her knuckles were white.
<i>She’s </i><i>doing </i><i>it </i><i>again</i><i>! </i>
“Dawn, are you afraid of me?”
He gritted his teeth, his hoarse voice sounding like he was at his breaking point. “Are you mute? Say something!”
Hisst word came out as a roar. Dawn closed her eyes tightly for a moment before she opened them. Taking a deep breath, she lifted her gaze to meet his.
She hadn’t noticed before, but now she could clearly see Austin’s face. He had stubble on his chin, and his whole face looked like he hadn’t slept in days. His eyes were bloodshot.
