Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 70 The First Time I Washed a Woman's Feet

The noisy crowd suddenly hushed and made way.

Ethan, rocking a white shirt and suit pants, strolled over, grabbing everyone's attention.

I was a hot mess on the ground, hair all over the place. He, like some superhero, pulled me out of the chaos with just one line. I knew his high-profile status meant bad news if he got tangled in any drama. Ethan was always low-key, but now he was front-page material.

Someone in the crowd whispered, "Damn, he's hot."

The young women clutched their hearts, totally floored that he was the main guy in this mess.

Ethan stood tall with a cold smirk, looking down at Skye from his towering height. "The dude in the photo is me, and you say I'm your husband? That's a joke."

Everyone cracked up. Skye felt the burn but wasn't backing down. "The guy in the photo is you? You're just covering for this chick, aren't you? But it's not that simple."

"Watch your mouth. This is Mr. Windsor, the president of Skyline International Corporation," Piper Johnson, Ethan's serious-looking assistant, chimed in.

Piper's words dropped like a bomb, revealing Ethan's identity and shocking everyone.

A person gotta be sharp to be a president's assistant. Piper must've had Ethan's green light to spill the beans like that.

Ethan said coolly, "About today's news, my lawyer's already issued a statement. Keep slandering or harassing, and I won't be nice."

Skye was floored by Ethan's identity but quickly bounced back, still relentless. "Do you have a scar on your waist too?"

Ethan flashed a killer smile. "Don't believe me? Wanna check?"

As he spoke, he actually started unbuttoning his shirt, causing a wave of screams.

I was stunned, thinking, 'Who is this guy? To him, am I just a contract? Is it worth it for him to clear my name by stripping in public?'

Honestly, even though we'd had many close moments, I never really noticed if he had a scar.

Ethan calmly unbuttoned his shirt, pulled one side aside, and sure enough, there was a scar. Skye was speechless.

The crowd, filled with girlish fantasies, screamed and whipped out their phones to snap pics.

Even the reporter nearby quickly grabbed his camera, snapping pics while asking, "Mr. Windsor, is she your girlfriend?"

Ethan, with his shirt open and his firm chest half-revealed, looked especially tempting.

Ethan squatted down and picked me up, saying to the reporter, "Check Twitter, and you'll know. If I'm not mistaken, my lawyer should've already posted the statement." For a moment, everyone whipped out their phones to check.
