Chapter 134 Distaste

“Gentlemen, you’re being loud.” Ethan gave the two men nearby a flat look as he spoke.

“Sorry, wait-are you… the oldest Brock?” The tall, scrawny one blinked at him like he couldn’t believe it.

“I’m Ethan,” he said.

“You came to this?” The guy rubbed his hands together, trying not to look nervous.

Ethan raised a brow. “Am I not supposed to?”

“No, I mean-of course you can! Just didn’t expect to see you at Ava Morren’s debut. You’re not usually into this kind of stuff.” The guy laughed, scratching the back of his neck.

The shorter man didn’t say a word. He’d never seen Ethan before, but he’d heard enough to know who he was. Now, standing in front of him, he couldn’t even open his mouth.

Ethan stepped closer. “I heard what you said about Ms. Morren. Trash talk like that about a woman’s name? That’s slander. That’s a crime.”

The tall one broke into a cold sweat. He never thought a bit of trashy gossip would get them busted by Ethan himself.

“S-Sorry!”

“I’m not the one you owe that to. Try Ms. Morren. If I were you, I’d be way too embarrassed to stick around.”

Was that him saying they had no shame?

“You’re not gonna report us, right? We were just messing around! It was stupid, yeah. We… just remembered we’ve got somewhere to be. We’ll leave right now.”

Ethan didn’t say a word. His expression was ice-cold.

The shorter guy tugged at his friend’s arm. “We’re sorry, Mr. Brock. We were out of line about Ms. Morren. We’re heading out.”

He pulled his friend toward the exit. His friend complained, “Wait, we’re just leaving? We didn’t even get to see her!”

“Shut up and walk!”

Ethan didn’t turn away until they were out of sight. His stare stayed locked on the door, and

He shoved a hand through his hair. “I’m going out there”

“No. They’re back.”

Sure enough, the trio had just walked into the ballroom.

Ryan crossed his arms and muttered, “They didn’t even let me help. What the hell.”

They didn’t care who was watching. They walked straight up to the Brock brothers. Without a word, they exchanged glances.

Ethan asked, “All set?”

Mason gave a lazy smile. “You have so little faith in us.”

Ethan looked down at Mason’s suit. Not a wrinkle.

Yet, as Mason got closer, Ethan caught a faint whiff of blood. “Go change. You reek. Don’t bring that smell near her.”

Mason sniffed his sleeve. “D*mn. You got a bloodhound’s nose or what? I don’t smell anything.”
