Alice had deleted all the texts earlier, so Ethan couldn’t find anything, but she had a few secrets stored in her phone. It wasn’t anything too top secret, yet he could still find something related to her past if he wanted to. She didn’t mind. Aside from Apollo’s information, she didn’t mind whatever he saw. She wouldn’t hide it from him. He wasn’t her enemy nor did they have any conflicts of interest, so he had no reason to hurt her. However, he was a reasonable man. After he went through her call and chat history, he returned her phone to her.

She took the phone, sulking and saying nothing. There was a look of anger on her face, telling Ethan to stay away from her, or else. After all, her phone just got perused. It would be weird if she didn’t show any anger.

Ethan knew she was sulking, and he smiled before asking, “You came to welcome me?”

“Yeah. You went on a business trip to Rythens, didn’t you? The earliest flight from Rythens to Rodcaster lands at three. I thought I could run into you just in time, but you came out earlier,” she answered despite still looking upset.

Alice would usually don her Tanner disguise whenever she had to talk business, so she knew all about international flights. She knew the earliest flight that would come from Rythens, and now it made her look like she Googled that just to welcome Ethan home.

“You know about my flight?” Something in Ethan’s eyes stirred. He came out through the VIP passage. If he had gone with the regular passage, he would have run into her. How did she know I was on that flight? There’s another flight from Rythens at eight.

I did tell her that I would be away for two days, but I never told her about the specifics of my flight. I didn’t tell her to welcome me, and she claims that’s what she’s doing? When she didn’t even care about me two days ago? When she only saw me as an outsider? Now, she says she’s here to welcome me. I don’t believe her, but then she knew when the first flight would land. Guess she calculated her arrival.

You told me you would come back today. It would either be this flight or the next. I would have waited,” she answered seriously, looking at him. She still sounded a bit miffed, however, telling Ethan she was still mad about her phone
