Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 140

Chapter 140 Ethan Is a Faithful Person

Holding the USB drive, I was torn about stashing it. If it vanished, Ethan would totally know I swiped it.

As I hesitated, someone bumped into me, and the drive went flying into the sink.

Before I could grab it, a redhead started puking into the sink, and the drive slid down the drain with the vomit. I was floored!

The redhead kept puking, and I felt both desperate and crushed.

It wasn't until she had nothing left to puke and was gasping for air over the sink that I finally stood there, dumbfounded, holding the unwashed suit.

After standing there forever, I finally moved to another sink to wash the suit clean.

When I walked out of the restroom, Ethan was waiting for me outside the door. Seeing he was alone, I asked, "Where's Oliver?"

He replied, "I had a waiter help him downstairs. He's probably passed out by now."

As he spoke, he reached out to take the washed suit from me, but I held onto it tightly.

He looked at me, puzzled. "What's wrong?"

I stammered for a bit and then said softly, "The USB drive in your pocket, I accidentally dropped it into the sink."

I expected him to blow up, but he didn't. He just paused for a moment. A look I couldn't read flashed in his eyes, and he said indifferently, "What's gone is gone. Let's go."

I figured the USB drive had to be important, but he just brushed it off with a simple "what's gone is gone."

He didn't try to take the suit from me again and walked ahead. I quickly followed. We didn't go much further before we stopped.

Nearby, a greasy-faced guy with a voluptuous woman in his arms was walking towards us. It was Mark from the court.

He saw us too, first looking surprised, then smiling.

"What a coincidence."

His gaze swept over me, and he said with a sarcastic smile, "Seems Ethan is quite the sentimental man."

I got the hint in Mark's words.

The last time we had dinner, Ethan brought me along, and this time, I was still the one by his side. Mark was a player, thinking everyone was like him.

Ethan quietly took my hand and smiled faintly at Mark.

Ethan said, "Mark, tonight's expenses are on me. Enjoy yourself. We have things to do, so we won't be staying."

"You're generous."
