Given that Irvin and his older brother were known to have a strained relationship, it was clear to everyone that Irvin wouldn’t address him with such warmth. Therefore, the only person in Rodcaster whom Irvin would address with such a friendly attitude was Ethan.

This was precisely why everyone was shocked when they deduced Ethan’s identity, as they didn’t expect him to appear at such an occasion.

“Is that Mr. Knight? Am I hallucinating? Did he actually show up? Oh my God, I think I’m going to pass out. This is the first time I’ve ever seen him up close.”

“It really is him. He’s so hot. I feel like I’m being captivated.”

“Me too.”

“I really want to marry him.”

“I don’t dare to dream of marrying him. I’ll be satisfied with just sleeping with him once.”

The women were all going crazy.

“Why is he here? Is it even possible for the Wolands to invite him to this banquet?” The men were equally stunned and could not believe their eyes.

Although today was meant to be Charles’ birthday banquet, he had previously announced that it would also serve as the occasion for Alice to choose her future husband.

Therefore, it was truly unexpected for Ethan to show up at this kind of event, but there was no mistaking that the person standing before them was indeed him.

Despite the attendees coming from prestigious families, there were still notable differences between them. They would seldom have the chance to interact with someone like Ethan regularly, which made his appearance at the event all the more surprising.

Irvin led Ethan to sit directly across from Alice.

Stunned, Alice furrowed her brows slightly. Why do they have to sit here when there are so many other seats in the hall? She had heard the fawning voices of those women on the field just moments ago, so wouldn’t his sitting here draw resentment toward her?
