"Do you know he's adopted?" Bella asked in a low voice, almost a whisper.
Jessica blinked at her in surprise, clearly caught off guard.
She had to admit—when it came to Ethan, she hadn't done much digging. With all her other subordinates, she always asked questions, getting to know their backgrounds and where they came from.
But with Ethan, she'd kept a bit of distance. After all, he was Davis's personal assistant. Asking too much might look like she was crossing a line, and she didn't want to come across as an overbearing boss.
Still, during the one year she'd been around him, she treated him with respect. In fact, Davis had only been able to manage things during his early recovery because Ethan was there.
Ethan had looked for medical help, arranged therapy, and even contacted psychological counselors to help Davis through the worst days.
He had always come across as loyal and trustworthy. Jessica had never once suspected anything unusual about him.
