Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

If that was the case, why did she not warn him about the glue before he sat down?

“Shh…” She placed a finger on her lips. “I’d advise you to keep quiet. If you attract any attention…” She trailed off right there, but she made herself clear. It would be embarrassing if word got out about his predicament. How funny would it be to hear that the Mr. Yeager was glued to the stool?

“Ethan, I guess Alice is only discussing stuff with Bruce. Yes, that must be it. They must be discussing Woland Group.” Irvin helped Alice out, mostly because he could not stand the hostility coming from Ethan, but even he believed that he sounded unconfident.

From their direction, they did not have a full view of Bruce’s face or a clear idea of the conversation between the two. However, they witnessed the wide grin on Alice’s face that was hard to miss. Ethan’s eyes looked calm, but upon closer look, one would detect the threatening air.

Irvin let out a sigh in secret and held his tongue. The situation seems bad!

On the second floor, Bruce gritted his teeth, seething with resentment. He was stunned to see the smile on her face. “Alice, you did this on purpose.”

“Yes, I did.” She admitted to it without hesitation. She would always own her actions, and her confession was bold and direct.

“You—” He was surprised by her honest confession. The calm look on her face almost made him choke on anger. Suddenly, he thought of a question. “How did you know I was coming over? And how did you know I’d sit on this stool?”

She gave him a look. “Well, you’re sitting on it now, aren’t you?”
