Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Since Emma’s previous plans had failed, she knew she could not afford a misstep moving forward. She needed to

ruin Alice once and for all!

She was green in envy at the thought of Keith visiting the Woland Family yesterday and asking for Alice’s hand in

marriage. Not only that, her photo with Elijah was in Alice’s hand, which was why she could not have Alice around.

In the meantime, Irvin and Ethan overheard Emma’s conversation with the waitress from the third floor.

“Looks like I didn’t mishear. Emma is conspiring with the waitress to harm Alice! I never thought she’d be an evil

character, given her gentle and lovely demeanor!” A smirk appeared on Irvin’s face. Why would these people harm

others? They’re hypocritical, acting like a saint when they’re despicable.

He believed that Emma was no different from his scheming brother, Ivan.

“Ethan, should we stop her?” Since they had learned that Emma would hurt Alice, he wondered if they should

interfere.

“Not for now.” Ethan scrunched up his eyes. Will Little Fox fall for it?

He wanted to observe Alice’s response. If she wandered into the trap, he would jump out to stop her. Of course, he

would not go easy on those who bullied her.

“Got it.” Irvin understood Ethan’s intention, and his eyes shone with excitement at the thought of the impending

drama. Pulling tricks on Ethan’s woman under his watch was not a wise move at all.

After Alice and the waitress left, Bruce showed up and stared in the direction they fled with a complex look in his

eyes. He did not expect to overhear the conversation during his restroom detour. Is Emma planning to drug Alice?

Once the waitress was back at the event hall, she walked up to Alice and handed her the glass of Coke. “Miss

Woland, here’s a Coke for you. Old Mr. Woland knows you don’t take alcohol, so he asked us to prepare this for you

instead.” The waitress lowered her head and avoided eye contact with Alice out of guilt.

“Sure. Thank you.” Alice smiled and took the glass of Coke, much to the waitress’ relief. The waitress reflexively

turned around and shot her ’employer’ a glance.

Emma, who had her eyes on Alice all along, saw everything and smiled gleefully. Things would be interesting once

Alice drank the Coke.

Bruce observed the situation as he pursed his lips. He glanced at Emma before looking at the glass of Coke that

Alice was about to drink. His eyes gleamed, but he said nothing.

“This can’t be! How could Alice fall for the trap?” Irvin, who was watching with amusement, started to panic. “Alice

is too naive. She doesn’t know how to keep her guard up!”

Ethan smiled. Others might not know Alice well, but he gained some understanding of her character after spending

time with her. He firmly believed she would not fall for Emma’s trick because of her keen observation.

In the hall, Alice lifted the glass of Coke and slowly pressed it against her lips. The few people in the know each had

a different expression on their faces. The waitress was guilty and scared, Emma was in anticipation while feeling

nervous, and Bruce was hesitant and struggling.

Only Ethan remained composed. However, he was still keeping an eye on Alice. Seconds ago, he saw the sly sparkle

in her eyes. He knew she must have sensed something was wrong, so she attempted to misguide the others. She’d

never take that drink!

Hence, he decided to stay put and watch. Still, he took out his phone and scrolled to her contact. If something went

wrong, he would immediately call to stop her.

“Ethan, the Coke is laced with drugs! If Alice drinks it, I’m afraid…” Irvin was panicking at the thought of Alice

downing the drink. He got along well with her, and more than that, she was Ethan’s wife. He needed to protect his

friend’s woman from getting harmed by outsiders.

In the next second, Alice moved the glass of Coke away from the lips. She swirled the drink in her hand with an

inexplicable look in her eyes. Then, she glanced at Emma with smiling eyes. When their eyes met, Emma felt

shocked because Alice’s smile sent shivers down her spine, giving her goosebumps.

Watching from the third floor, Ethan smiled gently. That’s Little Fox, indeed! Emma couldn’t dream of fooling Alice

with those low-level tricks. I’m impressed.

“Did Alice find out?” Irvin was confused by Ethan’s reaction, but he soon became excited. “If she did, what would

she do next? Will she force that Coke down Emma’s throat?” He had a penchant for watching the world burn.

“No.” Surprisingly, Ethan answered his question.

“No? How’d you know?” Irvin protested, “Do you know what she’ll do next?”

Ethan’s eyes twinkled with a smile, but he did not answer this time.

There was a bar, specially set up in the hall, where the hotel manager, Mr. Hampton, was giving instructions. Alice

went up to him with the glass of Coke, and Emma’s eyes gleamed as she wondered what Alice was up to.

As Alice arrived before Mr. Hampton with the drink in her hand, she whispered something in his ear, and he

immediately turned around and glanced at Emma, causing Emma to panic. The clever woman turned her attention

to Emma with a bright and lovely smile, stunning her in place.

After that, Alice placed the drink on the table at the bar as she chatted with Mr. Hampton. Next, she took a pen and

scribbled quickly on the tabletop. In the meantime, she shot a few cautious glances in Emma’s direction, which Mr.

Hampton imitated.

Since Emma was eyeing Alice, she was scared of Alice’s behavior. Did she notice what I did? And did she tell Mr.

Hampton about it?

Even if Alice complained to Mr. Hampton, Emma had no fear. She could deny any involvement and ask Elijah to take

care of the hotel manager, given her relationship with him. In the end, Alice would get the short end of the stick.

“Is Alice going to tell Mr. Hampton about it?” Irvin frowned slightly. “I guess that’s a reasonable way to go about it.

But the hotel manager can’t do anything about it, right? It’s a little frustrating.”

Frustrating? Ethan had an unreadable smile on his face.
