“You know we’re just temporarily married, don’t you? I don’t think it’s right of you to pry into my private life.” Alice

frowned in confusion.

He’s being too pushy. Our relationship isn’t even that close. She didn’t want to lie, but this was about Apollo and she

couldn’t tell anyone about his existence just yet. Even though they were married, it was just a fake marriage, so

they should just act their part. She never poked her nose into his business, so she expected him to do the same with

her. We had a deal.

“We’re just temporarily married?” Ethan froze. He had always wondered why she treated their marriage differently.

He wondered why she thought their marriage would be different from everyone else’s.

Alice thought that question was stupid. He should know the answer. Still, he was staring at her, so she answered,

“We only got married so Caroline can get back into the Knight Family, and besides…”

Ethan kept staring at her in silence, and it was starting to bother the usually composed Alice. She was starting to

feel her skin crawl, and her voice trailed off, eventually turning into something less than a whisper.

Ethan was still staring at her, and now he was coming closer to her. The aura around him was pressuring Alice.

Slowly, he said in her ear, “Well? Finish it.”

Alice felt her heart shudder for no reason. It was weird. She was usually brave, but somehow, she was scared into

silence with just a look from Ethan. Why am I even scared?

He made me marry him, and he made me sign the contract. I can tell him everything, so why am I scared? Fine, he

wants the answer? I’ll give him an answer. I’ll remind him that we had a deal and that I expect him to follow it

through. I don’t want him pestering me about Apollo.

Alice held her fear down, raised her head, and stared into his eyes. “Besides, I…”

The sentence was cut short by Caroline who said, “What are you doing, Mommy? Come over.”

“Right away.” Oh, right. Caroline’s waiting for me.

Ethan held her hand. “Finish what you were saying.”

What is wrong with him? Alice heaved a sigh and was about to finish what she was saying, but then Ethan’s phone

rang.

Alice swallowed her words. “You should get that call. I’ll check on Caroline.” She wouldn’t butt into Ethan’s business,

so whenever he had calls, she would move away in case it was an important call.

Ethan looked at his phone. The call was from Caleb. He must have found something. Alice had left the room, so

Ethan took the call.

“Sir, I just found out that Bruce came back from Cliaria earlier today at about three thirty,” said Caleb carefully.

Ethan told him to check everyone who landed at about three and find out if there was anyone related to Alice, and

he did find one—Bruce. Bruce had landed at about three thirty, and it was about the same time Alice went to the

airport. He really didn’t want to tell Ethan about it, but since he found the information, he didn’t dare to hide it and

reported it to Ethan.

“So, you’re telling me she went to pick Bruce up?” Ethan looked at the closed door as his face darkened.

That’s who she was picking up? That’s the guy who’s more important to her than her own life? And was the reason

she’s hiding just now related to Bruce? If she was picking Bruce up, then that means she thinks Bruce is more

important to her than herself.

Caleb gulped, not daring to answer him. Ethan and Bruce landed at almost the same time, and Alice went to the

airport not for him, but for Bruce. This was a terrifying question, and one he would not answer. He had checked

everyone who landed in that time period, and aside from Ethan, Bruce was the only one who knew Alice. “Perhaps

she did go to pick you up,” said Caleb, though he didn’t believe it. When he connected the dots, he realized that

Alice didn’t go to the airport for Ethan.

Ethan sneered. No. She clearly said she wasn’t there for me. She was there for someone more important to her

than her own life. That’s what she said. It just so happens that Bruce landed at the same time.

Ethan hung up. She said I married her because of Caroline, well now I think she’s the source of my anger. He left

the room and came face to face with Caroline.

He could hear Alice telling Caroline a bedtime story. Her voice was soft and gentle, and it could heal anyone who

was in a bad mood.

Ethan listened for a while, and then he broke into a smile. Perhaps we’re destined to be together so she can annoy

me. Fine, this is my choice, so I’ll live with it. Soon enough, Ethan would know the annoyance would extend far and

wide.

Ethan left home early the next morning. He didn’t even get to talk to Mr. Rivers the day before because he tailed

Alice, so he rescheduled it for this morning. Alice played with Caroline for a while and got ready to go to Majestic

Plaza to see Apollo, but the moment she left home, Keith called her.

“Do you have time?” Keith had always been someone who cut to the chase quickly. “Let’s meet up. We need to

talk.”
