Chapter 10 - Ethan Vows To Protect His Wife And Daughter Fiercely
My phone rang again instantly, this time displaying Ethan’s caller ID flashing across the screen.
I swiped to answer, pressing the phone tightly against my ear while standing on the courthouse steps.
“Chloe, are you and Maisie safe? Miller just called me about Clara fleeing her apartment,” Ethan said, breathing heavily.
“Where are you, Ethan?” I asked, hearing the distant roar of highway traffic in the background of his call.
“I’m driving north toward Connecticut; I tracked your toll pass, Chloe, I couldn't stay away,” he confessed urgently.
“You shouldn't have come here; you’re drawing her straight to where we are hiding,” I hissed into the receiver.

“I don't care about myself, Chloe; I care about keeping my family alive,” Ethan’s voice cracked with raw, unfiltered emotion.
“If she comes for you, she has to get through me first—I swear it on my life.”
