Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Chapter 106

At this moment, Alice’s phone was inside her bag on the couch while she was in the kitchen, washing the grapes she bought.

She didn’t need to wash fruits, but she didn’t want to stay in the living room as James Rowland was a cunning man who would always say something at critical moments that made her at a loss for what to say.

Meanwhile, Emma just happened to be sitting on the couch, so she immediately noticed when Alice’s phone rang.

While no one was paying attention, Emma grabbed Alice’s phone and was shocked to see the words ‘Chief.’ Afterward, she put Alice’s phone on silent mode.

Since Alice felt her relationship with Ethan seemed complicated, she didn’t know how to address him. So, when she casually typed ‘chief’ on her phone contact, she went with it.

On the other hand, unable to get ahold of Alice, Ethan found Keith’s number and called him. “Keith, I’d suggest you stop getting ideas about her.”

“What’s the matter? Are you threatening me, Mr. Knight? It’s a pity that I’m not that easily threatened.”

Keith was shocked when he received Ethan’s call. Though he knew Ethan had feelings for Alice, he didn’t expect Ethan to call and threaten him.

Actually, he saw what Emma had done just now and immediately guessed that Ethan called because he couldn’t reach Alice.

While looking at Alice inside the kitchen, Keith smiled mischievously. “Mr. Knight, you’re looking for Alice, aren’t you? But unfortunately, she’s currently unavailable.”

When Keith answered the phone, he had already walked out of the living room and coincidentally arrived outside the kitchen. He deliberately knocked on the kitchen door and asked, “Alice, are you done in there?”

Those words carried an ambiguity that gave others wild thoughts.

Ethan’s eyes quickly narrowed, but he didn’t believe Keith’s words. However, he immediately heard Alice saying, “No, I’m not. Why are you so impatient? Can’t you wait for a while longer?”

Though Alice’s reply sounded normal, it caused a certain someone’s mind to start wondering!

She didn’t know anything about Keith’s intention because he was holding his phone with his hand naturally hanging beside his body, hiding the fact that he was on a call.

Therefore, Alice didn’t think about it and continued washing the grapes.

The sound of flowing water traveled through the phone and into Ethan’s ear.

Instantly, Ethan’s eyes narrowed dangerously. Is she not answering my calls because she’s showering? Keith is currently at the Woland Residence, so why is she taking a shower at such a moment? If she’s in the bathroom, then what is Keith doing? From their conversation just now, it’s not hard to guess that Keith is standing outside the door. Is she taking a bath with Keith right outside the door?

At this moment, Ethan was breathing heavily and feeling displeased.

Meanwhile, Keith had already hung up the call.

“Mr. Knight, the plane is ready.” Right then, Caleb entered the room, and Ethan quickly shot up and went out.

When he got on the plane, he made another call. “Find out what Keith has been doing these few years.”

Ethan knew that only by knowing the enemy could he win against his enemy in one shot.

Keith’s performance in his previous troop was particularly outstanding, and it earned him an important position in the army at a young age. However, he suddenly retired a few years ago and had been acting like a rich playboy since.

Though Ethan knew things weren’t as simple as they seemed, he and Keith kept to themselves, but now that Keith had gotten on his nerves, things were now different.

The way he dealt with his enemies was always to deliver a lethal blow, hitting the most critical part at the first moment and not letting his enemy have a chance to retaliate.

Since Keith dared to offend him, Keith should prepare to face the consequences.

“Boss, has Keith Rowland upset you?” After answering the call, the other person was taken aback for a while because they and Keith had nothing to do with each other, so why would Ethan suddenly order him to look into Keith?

“Boss, you sound displeased. Are you feeling dissatisfied? Have you not managed to bed your wife?” Tyler had always enjoyed teasing others, so he naturally would want to tease Ethan after noticing the strangeness in his voice.

According to what he heard, Ethan had gotten married, but his wife had been ignoring him. Ethan’s attitude now could only prove that they hadn’t slept together.

“I want the results in half an hour.” His expression became even gloomier, and his voice became so cold that it gave others goosebumps.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Boss, you can’t be serious. When have you become like those bloodsuckers?” Tyler’s voice was laced with resentment and sadness. He thought he shouldn’t have provoked Ethan when he knew Ethan was merciless when provoked.

On the other hand, Ethan didn’t care about Tyler’s complaints and hung up.

Afterward, he got on the plane. As his private plane was fast, it didn’t take him long to return to Rodcaster.

Also, his plane’s equipment was all top-notch, so he didn’t have to turn off his phone either.

When Alice was done washing the grapes and returned to the living room, she noticed her bag on the couch and narrowed her eyes slightly. That was because she had very keen eyesight and knew her bag had been touched with just one look.

Alice approached her bag and opened it. A faint sneer appeared on her lips when she saw her phone had been moved. She picked up her phone and saw several missed calls from Ethan.

It seemed like Ethan had made several calls to her, but she didn’t hear a single one of them.

That was when she discovered her phone had been put on silent mode.

With a slight roll of her eyes, Alice shot Emma a cold stare before walking out of the room to return Ethan’s call.

“What were you doing?” Ethan instantly picked up the call, and Alice immediately heard his cold, deep voice.

“Huh? Just now?” Of course, Alice noticed something strange in his voice. She looked at the two grapes in her hand and blinked her eyes. “Washing.”

“While Keith was in the room?” When Ethan heard her answer, his grip on his phone tightened while his cold eyes narrowed slightly.

He didn’t believe it before, but now that he heard her admitting to it, he suddenly had the urge to kill someone.

On the other hand, Alice was slightly stunned. Can’t I wash some grapes with Keith around now? What does that have to do with Keith? Wait, something’s not adding up. Alice suddenly realized what the problem was.

Ethan’s tone sounded different. His emotion wasn’t right, and he said something strange. He spoke in a tone as though she was doing something entirely immoral, but she was only washing grapes, and that wasn’t immoral! So…

After Alice understood the situation, she felt her lips twitch. “What are you thinking about? I was just washing some grapes, and you think I was washing up in the shower?”

There was silence from the other line as Ethan was dumbfounded. Following the short moment of silence, he obviously brightened up.

His mind must have short-circuited just now, or how could he misunderstand the situation without thinking it through?
