Mike, Ethan's loyal bodyguard, stood in Ethan's office, pondering whether he should follow Emily and Mia. He had always been vigilant and protective of Ethan's family, and today was no different.
"Should I follow them?" Mike inquired, seeking clarity on his duties as Emily left the room.
Ethan, who had initially declined to accompany them to the beach, suddenly had a change of heart. He made a surprising announcement to Mike, "No need to follow them. Suspend all the work today and cancel all my schedules for the rest of the week. We are going to the beach."
Mike, taken aback by the sudden reversal, couldn't hide his confusion. "But, boss, you said you were not going," he reminded Ethan.
Ethan smirked, knowing full well what Mike was thinking. "Yeah, I'm not going with them. I'm going on my own, with just you and me."
Mike couldn't help but roll his eyes at Ethan's response. He muttered to himself, "He's probably planning on sneaking out to follow them." However, he decided to voice his candid thoughts aloud, adding, "Boss, you are too shameless."
Ethan chuckled at Mike's comment, appreciating the dedication of his bodyguard. His sudden decision to go to the beach, albeit separately, raised questions, but he had his own reasons, ones he intended to keep to himself.
