Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Alice’s eyes looked like they had bright, twinkling stars in them as she stared at him. When Ethan lifted his gaze to meet hers, he found himself blinded by the twinkle in her eyes. Is she that desperate to get married to Bruce? For the first time, Ethan found himself developing a rather evil thought in his head. He felt the urge to destroy all the twinkling stars of hope in her eyes. After giving it some thought, he spoke in a serious tone. “I’m afraid it might be too late,” he said.

“Too late? What’s too late?” Alice was stunned. She took a while to regain her senses, and the twinkle in her eyes disappeared when she processed what he had said. Aren’t we discussing this matter right now? We haven’t come to a conclusion, so why is he saying that it’s too late? “What you said earlier reminded me of something, Miss Woland. I believe that it’d be good for Caroline if we got married.” Ethan’s voice was extremely stern and firm, as if he had put a lot of thought into his words before speaking.

Alice stared at him dumbfoundedly before gulping. So, is he saying that I dug my own grave? Did I get myself into this? For a second, Alice felt like she no longer had the strength to even speak. Wait, that’s not right. If someone like Ethan approached me, wouldn’t he have considered all these possibilities from the start? Would he be the sort of person to change his mind because of something that I said? No. That’s impossible! I’m sure that things would’ve turned out this way even if I had kept my mouth shut from the start. Does that mean that I fell for his trap? How did I fall for this? Are you retarded, Alice? Are you? Huh?

At that moment, a medium-rare steak was served. Alice lifted her cutleries up and stabbed her fork into the meat before slicing it into pieces. She used her knife as if it were a saw. The medium-rare meat had streaks of blood in it, which made it look even more sinister. Bradley’s eyelids twitched as he watched her slice the entire piece of meat into smaller slices. He could tell that Alice didn’t genuinely want to cut the steak—she probably wanted to slice Ethan into pieces instead. Ethan watched her slicing the meat without any change in his facial expression.

Once Alice finished slicing her steak into tinier pieces, she got some relief from all the frustration she felt. Once again, she told herself that she had to maintain a calm and collected demeanor. I can’t give up just yet. I’m going to try again. I’ve never been one to give up, anyway. Alice lowered her cutleries and held her head up to smile at Ethan.

going to adapt to her new environment in the Knight Family, I can always come over to stay with her for a bit. I’ll leave after she gets used to the environment.” Alice was also concerned about sending Caroline back to the Knight Residence on her own, and it had been part of Alice’s plan to stay with Caroline for a while. Alice wanted to make sure that Caroline

I’ll save Caroline some trouble. In other words, Ethan wants me to act as Caroline’s shield. If I’m around, everyone will turn their focus toward me. I bet the public would love to gossip about how I’m trying too hard to squeeze my way into a wealthy family that’s way out of my league. I’m already one of the hot topics
