Chapter 95
Ethan’s Vengeance of Love
âSure.â Alice was going to see Keith anyway. First, she wanted to thank him for saving her seven years
ago. Second, she wanted to figure out if he was the same man who slept with her back then.
âHow does afternoon sound? Give me a location and Iâll pick you up.â Keith smiled, finally not nervous
anymore. A successful date opens up an opportunity to ask for her hand in marriage.
âNo. Just give me the location and Iâll get a ride there,â said Alice. She didnât want to make it too much
of a hassle. Going back and forth was a waste of time.
Keith wasnât much of a romantic, so the moment Alice made that proposal, he did as he was told. Alice
checked the time and calculated the distance between her and the places she wanted to go. In the end,
she decided to meet up with Keith first. She wanted to figure out if Keith was the father of her son, and
that was important. Apollo might seem nonchalant about his father, but she knew he yearned for one in
his life.
When Alice arrived at the club, Keith was already waiting for her outside.
He stood tall under the sun, unlike most people his age. He wasnât scrolling through his phone either.
He was just standing at the clubâs entrance. When he saw Alice, he quickly approached her.
The club belonged to Chris, and he happened to come here to settle something today. Just when he
was about to go back home, he saw Alice going into a room with Keith. Why are they together? Whatâs
going on? No matter what the reason was for Ethan to marry Alice, she still was his wife, and Chris
must find out why she was seeing another man.
Hence, Chris went to his office and asked someone to play the surveillance footage of the room Keith
and Alice were in. Every room in this club had a surveillance camera inside, but they were seldom
used. This was one of the exceptions. Chris watched Alice and Keith as they chatted happily, and then
he called Ethan. âGuess who I saw?â Chris didnât wait for an answer. Ethan wouldnât say anything
anyway. He continued, âItâs Alice. Thatâs not the point, though. I saw her going into a room with Keith in
my club.â
Ethan was about to go downstairs, but he paused when he heard Chris. He remembered that Alice
gave Keith her number at Royal the other day and said she would speak with him soon. She actually
did that?
Alice took out a gift and handed it to Keith. âHere. Thank you for all the help youâve given me.â
âWhat?â Keith paused for a moment, delight filling his eyes. In most cases, it was the men who gave
women gifts. This is our first date, and she already bought a gift for me? I donât have anything for her,
though.
Chris was watching everything, and he blurted, âWhoa, she got him a gift.â
The call was still ongoing, so Ethan heard that, and he narrowed his eyes. âWhat kind of gift?â
Keith was opening the gift, and Chris saw what was inside.
Chris was shocked and amazed at the same time. âWhoa, holy cow. Itâsâ¦â
Sh*t. Ethanâs still listening. Chris then heaved a sigh and calmed himself down. âItâs a thumb ring. I
know that ring. It was the one that showed up at the Woland Groupâs auction two years ago. It was
made with a particular type of jade, and it is said that Woland Group hired an expert to design it. I love
it. Someone wanted to buy it off with nine million dollars, but Woland Group didnât sell. I canât believe
sheâs giving it to Keith. Who is he to her anyway, and why did she give him such an expensive gift?â
Ethan felt demoralized hearing that. Sheâs married to me, and itâs been a while now, but she has never
given me any presents. So why did she give Keith one? And itâs obviously a valuable one too. They
didnât sell it even for nine million, so it must mean Alice has kept it for herself. And now sheâs giving it to
Keith? What is she doing?
Keith was surprised by the ring as well. âThank you, Alice. I love it.â
Chris pursed his lips. Duh. Anyone would love something like that, including me.
Keith held the ring up and slid it onto his thumb, the love in his eyes flaring brighter. âIâd like to marry
you, Alice. Will you marry me?â Keith looked at Alice solemnly. When he saw her seven years ago, he
already had the thought of marrying her, and now he didnât want to let that chance go.
Chris spewed his tea out and coughed violently. He couldnât believe what he was hearing. He wants to
marry her? But why? Sheâs stupid and foolish, and she insisted on marrying Bruce. She even gave
Bruce her company. Why on earth does Keith like her? Ethan only married her because of Caroline, so
whatâs Keithâs reason? He seems serious too.
It took Chris a while to calm down, and then he told this piece of shocking news to Ethan. âEthan, Keith
just proposed to Alice.â Yeah, Ethan only married her because of Caroline, but even if sheâs not worthy
of him, sheâs still his wife. Ethan needs to know this.
Ethan gripped his phone tighter and stopped walking. He narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing
within them. âAre you sure?â
âYes. Iâm watching them right now through the surveillance camera, and Iâm sure thatâs what he said,
but I bet sheâll refuse him. She is still your wife at the moment.â Chris wasnât worried about this. He
thought Alice wouldnât say yes, no matter what. She is a married woman after all.
