“How do you plan to deal with the Wolands?” Finally, Ethan approached Alice and asked in a low voice.
Even though she didn’t ask for his help, which made him disgruntled and envious, he felt that he should take the
initiative and offer his help. When it was time for him to act, he would do it without hesitation! Otherwise, compared
to the person she praised as the best, he would be the one that was one-sidedly beaten, and he would never allow
something like this to happen in his life.
Am I going to lose to someone else? That’s impossible, no matter who the person is, their gender, and their age.
Alice scrutinized Ethan and thought that he was behaving rather oddly, but she couldn’t exactly describe why.
However, she thought about his question before answering, “For the sake of my late father, I’ll show them mercy
for the last time.” A cold smirk tinged the edge of her lips when she said that. Are those people from the Wolands
deserving of my mercy?
She could tell that Ethan wanted to interfere and help her solve this. Whether it was because she had saved
Caroline before or they were now husband and wife in name, Ethan wasn’t a person who would stand on the
sidelines when encountering something like this and it was expected that he would interfere.
Nevertheless, what fun would it be for the Wolands if he acted? He could already wipe out the entire Woland Family
with just a lift of his pinkie, but she wanted to find evidence of those people who caused the death of her parents
back then. If Charles was also involved in this, Alice reckoned that it would be even more difficult to find the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtevidence. Therefore, she had to take things step by step and not let Ethan wipe them out in one swift move.
Of course, she would need to do a DNA test to be sure if her father was related to Charles. After that, she was
going to get back all the things that Charles had meticulously taken from her parents over the years so that he
could have a taste of what it felt like to slowly lose the things he valued the most after obtaining them. In the
meantime, she wanted to take back all those assets openly and brazenly with the sole purpose of making the
Wolands mad and annoyed at her. She wanted to ensure that they wouldn’t be able to do anything but watch as she
tormented them.
Ethan’s eyes flickered as he returned her gaze. Why do I have the feeling that she isn’t going to show them mercy?
Based on his understanding of Little Fox, she wouldn’t provoke others first, but once someone picked a fight with
her, he reckoned that they wouldn’t end up in one piece. Besides, she kept a list of the mistakes he had made. For
instance, she remembered all those things which he thought were nothing. Still, he would listen to her and not wipe
out the Wolands for now. Since she wanted to drag this out, he would allow her this and make his move once she
had had enough.
The surveillance continued to play on the big screen, and Mr. Fernandez fast-forwarded it to skip the blank images
in the beginning. Now, the screen showed Amelia dragging Ashley into the lounge before pulling out a fruit knife
from her handbag, which was exactly that murder weapon.
When she took the knife out of her purse, it was wrapped in paper, and she didn’t touch it directly with the paper in
between. Then, she placed the knife into Ashley’s hands and said, “Stab yourself in the stomach with this. I’m not
touching it lest I leave any prints behind.” Fear and hesitation were written over Ashley’s face when her hands
shakily retrieved the knife. “Do it quickly. Alice will be here soon.” When Emma noticed her hesitation, she urged
Amelia, but this statement from her revealed immediately caused the crowd to question the Wolands.
How would Emma know that Alice would be here soon? At that time, Alice was helping Charles as he took a break.
So, why would she come here alone?
Ethan took a glance at the surveillance video that was playing over the big screen. There was nothing to worry
about in the situation now. Although Alice asked for the help of others instead of him, the problem was solved.
Now, she wouldn’t have any problems, and the ones in trouble were the people from the Woland Family. It was time
for him to do something else; something which had to be done.
Ethan’s eyes drifted to the lounge on the left, where Charles was still resting inside. Alice might have said that she
wanted to show them mercy for one last time, and he knew that she definitely had something up her sleeve, but it
wasn’t his style to sit by and watch in vain as others walked over his woman.
Hence, he went straight into the lounge on the left. Inside, Charles wore a glum face, looking even worse than he
did when he was pretending to be sick in front of Alice earlier. The surveillance that was playing in the banquet hall
was very loud. Even if he didn’t leave the lounge, he could hear everything clearly.
Never did he imagine that Alice could restore the surveillance, and it was a blow to him that his plan had failed. His
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmefforts were rewarded with nothing but a complete failure.
This time, he wouldn’t be able to send Alice to jail. What a waste of his meticulously planned scheme that he spent
his time on. All he could do was look for another opportunity and lie in wait. He was careless and underestimated
Alice this time, but the next time, he would ensure that his plan would be a fatal strike.
He had yet to lose, and he would never lose to a young girl like Alice. I’m going to regroup and do everything in my
power to squash Alice like the bug she is, he decided. I’m not going to give her any chance to make a comeback.
Just then, Ethan walked into the lounge, and shock was apparent on Charles’ face at the sight of him. However,
after a moment of shock, his wrinkled eyes gleamed with a pleasant surprise.
Previously, he was already informed that Ethan was going to attend his party, but since he had a plan to execute
and he couldn’t find Ethan in the banquet hall, he didn’t manage to have a chat with him, which he thought was a
pity. Unexpectedly, Ethan had walked right through the door to visit him in the lounge now.
At the fact that Ethan specially came to look for him in the lounge, Charles wondered what sort of good news he
was bringing along to him. After all, a person like Ethan wouldn’t specially visit him unless something was up, and he
never had a quarrel with Ethan before, so he concluded that Ethan was probably he with good tidings.
“Mr. Knight, you…” Charles felt pumped with adrenaline as he appeared excited. He even jumped up from the
couch all of a sudden to welcome Ethan. It was at that moment when he put on a pleasing and bootlicker look.
Ethan swept his gaze over the old man and didn’t hide his disgust for him even though he would usually take care to
not display his emotions. Little Fox is such a proud person. How could she have a family like this? He wouldn’t even
bother glancing at Charles if it weren’t because he was trying to defend his woman. “I’m only here to tell you one
thing.”
