They did not soften their voice throughout the discussion, so one could hear them crystal-clear. Due to Emma’s arrangement, such discussion became a hot topic in the parlor.

Standing somewhere on the third floor, Ethan could hear the discussion loud and clear. Most of the words were from the loquacious women, but a few gabby men joined soon after.

“If she hadn’t been disfigured, I can still bear a marriage with her. Too bad there’s a huge scar on her face. It’s scary and hideous. I will never take her as my wife.”

“I heard that Old Mr. Woland will choose a husband for her today.”

Ethan narrowed his eyes, after which the door to the second-floor parlor opened. Everyone cast their gaze in that direction and watched Alice enter the place. The distance and lighting rendered the scar on her face obscure. The gushing voices were drowned by silence as most of the men’s eyes twinkled in astonishment and admiration. It was true that men were easily captivated by pretty looks.

“What the? Miss Woland is hot! Why didn’t I notice earlier?” Irvin, who was on the third floor, almost whistled due to the surprise.

Ethan’s eyes narrowed dangerously and icily. What is she all dressed up prettily for?

“Miss Woland has a great body. I wonder if it’s fake. Maybe her chest—”

“Forget about that. Look at her skin! It’s flawless and fair. I bet it’s squishy to touch them.”
