Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

“Please speak your mind.” Right now, Charles probably had his head in the clouds, imagining all the wonderful

things and not realizing the annoyance Ethan displayed, and his attitude turned even more sycophantic.

Any good deal that fell between the fingers of a person such as Ethan was enough to last the Woland Family a

lifetime, and he wasn’t ready to miss this golden opportunity!

Although Charles was already in his seventies, he seemed like a lapdog when he nodded and smiled at the twenty-

eight-year-old Ethan, looking nothing short of ridiculous.

“From today onward, if anyone from the Woland Family, including you, makes Alice frown even just a little, I’ll skin

the Woland Family alive.” Ethan parted his lips and enunciated each word slowly and clearly. He wasn’t loud, but the

air of dominance and authority that he carried with him made one obey without any questions.

“Yes, of course…” Initially, Charles was still unaware, and his bootlicking attitude made him agree even more to

anything that Ethan said.

No matter what Ethan said, he simply had to agree to it, but after a few seconds of concurring, he finally came to

his senses and realized what Ethan meant.

He paused in stunned silence and looked at Ethan in bewilderment. The smile on his face slowly froze up, and he

looked like an absolute joke.

At the end of the day, Charles had lived past seventy and wasn’t a dumb person. So, it finally dawned upon him

what Ethan was speaking about as he finally regained his wits. “How are you related to my granddaughter?”

By bringing up that Alice was his granddaughter, Charles clearly wanted to draw the distance closer to Ethan and

had forgotten that he wanted to toss her into the jail just minutes ago. He even wanted to kill her and had

conveniently forgotten that he wanted to burn all bridges with her.

Even a person as composed as Ethan was taken aback by Charles’ thick skin. “You have no right to know.” By now,

he couldn’t even be bothered to spare a look at Charles, whom he doubted was Alice’s family.

In a matter of seconds, many images flashed past Charles’ mind. He recalled how confident Alice sounded when

she spoke to him threateningly and claimed that she would take back everything that the Wolands had. He didn’t

believe her at first, but now it dawned on him that Alice had an unusual relationship with Ethan, hence explaining

her confidence.

Undoubtedly, he couldn’t offend Ethan. In contrast, if he could use this chance to make just the smallest connection

to the Knight Family, the Woland Family could receive a lot of benefits. He wanted to send Alice to jail and get rid of

her because she was no longer useful to him, but now, she was involved with Ethan, who even directly spoke up on

her behalf. So, he had to use a different approach.

Once more, he put on the face of a bootlicker. “There’s probably a misunderstanding, Mr. Knight. As Alice’s

grandfather, I’ve always doted on her. Earlier, I was feeling unwell and didn’t know what happened, but I’ll go and

deal with the situation now—”

Ethan glanced at him coldly. “Nobody can lie in front of me.”

Except for one person, Alice, but that was because he was willing to listen to her. The lie Charles was telling was too

ridiculous, shameless, and immoral, directly refreshing Ethan’s definition of shameless.

“You’d better mark my words. I guess you probably heard rumors about my way of doing things, but if you haven’t,

I don’t mind giving you first-hand experience.” In all honesty, Ethan didn’t want to waste another second on a

person like this, but he had to make things clear or Charles would very likely feign ignorance, given his despicable

personality.

Charles finally realized how serious the situation was upon seeing Ethan’s determination. Today, Ethan came here

for the sole purpose of warning him and wouldn’t offer him room for negotiation. No, he wouldn’t even give him the

chance to speak.

In his mind, he was well aware that it would be the end of the Woland Family any time once Ethan made his move.

No, I can’t allow something like this to happen. I have to turn the situation around! “Mr. Knight, we’re Alice’s family,

and I’m her grandfather, her flesh and blood grandfather.”

Under such circumstances, Charles knew that the only way out was to establish the kinship he had with Alice and

make use of this to plead with Ethan.

It would be a lie to say that Ethan didn’t know what Charles was planning. Alice’s family? You’re only her family if

she acknowledges it. If she doesn’t acknowledge you, you’re nothing.

Ethan shattered Charles’ dreams with a single blow by saying, “Alice said that she’ll show mercy to you guys one

last time. Otherwise, do you think that you and the rest of the Wolands can still be standing here intact?”

It was true; he initially wanted to deal with the Wolands immediately. If Alice hadn’t stopped him, these people

would have long been gone already.

Back in the banquet hall, the surveillance from the lounge on the right had finished playing, and the truth was out.

To Alice’s surprise, she wasn’t expecting Amelia’s part in this farce. However, after she gave it careful thought, this

seemed fitting with Charles’ style, which was despicable, and setting himself as morally superior to others.

Well, when she considered their relationship, Amelia was not born a Woland, which made her an outsider. If this

matter fell apart, only an outsider would be sacrificed.

“So, Amelia is the one who set up Alice?” Everyone already had a few guesses in mind after watching the video.

“Maybe she’s not the only one involved. This plan is so comprehensive that it seems unlikely that she’s capable of

doing it alone. I think someone else from the Woland Family is also involved.”

“It’s the Woland Family who wants to set up Alice, then?”

“Why would they do this?”

“Elijah snatched the Glenn Group while the other Wolands snatched the other properties from Lucas and his wife.

They were probably worried that Alice wants to take those assets back.”

“All those things belong to Alice, to begin with. Elijah still wants to set her up after snatching them from her. How

inhumane!”

“Forget the others, but is Old Mr. Woland staying out of this as well?”

“Old Mr. Woland hasn’t even appeared until now. Who knows what role he played in all of this? Maybe he has given

his silent consent for everything.” The person who said this had underestimated just how despicable Charles was.

“Alice is Lucas’ daughter and a member of the Woland Family. They’re being too heartless to her, aren’t they?”

“Fortunately, she’s able to recover the surveillance. Otherwise, she’ll probably be on the way to jail by now.”

Everyone in the banquet hall fell silent when they heard those words. The surveillance video was destroyed, and the

hotel manager said that it couldn’t be recovered, not even anyone in the room could recover it. Yet, less than a

minute after Alice made a call, everything was solved and the deleted footage was recovered.

Exactly how efficient and capable was she? Everyone said that Alice was dumb, but was this something that a dumb

person could do?
