In a gentle voice, he said soothingly, "Now‘s not the right time."

As he spoke, Ethan looked into the distance with a cold expression.Then he patted her on the head gently and turned around to
leave, disappearing in the crowd.
Swallowing her nervousness, Jwalked briskly into the Larson Group‘s building.
