Since he didn’t mention anything just now, she thought he wasn’t bothered by it and wasn’t as overbearing as she thought it was. Now, it seemed like she had imagined him to be too “perfect.”

“Do you like them?” Ethan’s narrowed eyes weren’t cold but also dangerous.

But his voice remained deep and slow. There wasn’t any obvious anger in his voice or any emotion at all.

It was precisely this kind of temperament that could send chills down others’ spines.

“I…” Alice wanted to tell him that she didn’t accept Keith’s flowers and that she even lied to him that she was allergic to flowers in order not to accept them.
