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?”
