It was no wonder that Alice was so sure she wouldn’t fall in love with Ethan even after they had both gotten a marriage certificate together.

“What does the Knight Family mean by doing so? And Ethan—what does he take you for? Who gives them the right to treat you like this?” The more Cecilia voiced her opinions, the angrier she got. “What? They expect you to dedicate your whole life to them after rescuing their kin?”

“Is Ethan truly getting that marriage certificate with you solely because of Caroline?” Even Lydia, who was uproarious, completely calmed down at this moment.

Right then and there, Ethan, who was outside the room, wanted to enter and explained that Caroline was never why he married Alice. I have many means to take Caroline back to the Knight Family. Marriage is undoubtedly not the path I will choose. I applied for the marriage certificate with Alice because I wanted to marry her. And there is only one reason—because I want to!

However, Alice’s voice sounded just when Ethan was about to open the door. “I myself agreed to take that marriage certificate with him.”

Alice was touched when she saw her two best friends defend her against unfair treatment. She was well aware Ethan agreeing to get a marriage certificate with her was, indeed, because of Caroline. However, she dared not to reveal this to Lydia and Cecilia, for she feared they would risk their lives and fight Ethan. I have no problem if they want to fight Ethan, but the main point is they are not his match at all. Moreover, although Ethan was indeed the one who suggested and forced us to get the marriage certificate, I still have ways to stop it if I really disagreed in the first place. The only reason I agreed to it at that time was that I remembered some incidents that took place when I rescued Caroline.

In the meantime, Ethan’s eyes flickered subtly with excitement. Was that her confession? She consented to get that marriage certificate with me!? She actually consented!?

However, I encountered a group of men when I arrived at the police station to inquire about the news. One look was all it took for me to know they were malicious and ruthless. They were looking for Caroline too. They intended to leave no survivors of the car accident. I could tell that those men weren’t mediocre and were powerful. I was worried they would find out and harm Caroline if I allowed her to return to the Knight Family just like that. Although the Knight Family is formidable, I couldn’t guarantee Caroline would be perfectly safe there. Just like Catherine back then. I had raised Caroline as my own for several years, so I would never be in any form of danger as long as I have the means to prevent it. I couldn’t afford to take the risk, and getting a marriage certificate with Ethan was the best way to conceal Caroline’s real identity.” Alice announced the reason behind her agreement to marry Ethan.
