The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 189

Chapter 189 Ethan’s Wrath (4)

Moreover, Alice promised Apollo to spend the day with him. Apollo had been staying with the Rowland Family earlier, and he treated Keith like a father figure. When Alice came back from Cliaria the day before, Apollo visited her especially to keep her company. Because of that, she made sure no one knew her schedule yesterday, wanting to protect Apollo from any potential danger.

Although Alice initially had no plans to meet up with Apollo, her son insisted that she accompanied him. Eventually, she gave in and decided to go along with her son. Furthermore, she didn’t think she would have time for Apollo later on when she became swamped with important business. Thus, she agreed to meet Apollo after much hesitation, saving her night for some quality time with her son. I’ll talk about the rest another day when Ethan is calmer.

On the other hand, Ethan, who had been waiting outside the room all day, decided to reach for his keys when he didn’t hear anything from the inside. However, when he opened the room, he didn’t see any signs of Alice. Besides the door, the window was the only exit in the room, which led Ethan to believe that Alice must have gotten away through the window.

At the sight of that, he grew angry and grabbed his phone to give Alice a call, but to no avail, as no one answered the phone. Of course! She won’t pick up my call. Why would she after escaping through the window? Fine, let’s see how long you can remain in hiding. You can run, but you can’t hide forever.

“Oops! It looks like Alice was so scared of you that she escaped from the window.” Lorien was surprised by what Alice just did. “You’re simply too frightening, Ethan. You’re going to scare away any woman who tries to come near you.” Lorien could sympathize with Alice, understanding why she escaped; Ethan’s aggressive approach might have actually scared her off.

“Pack your stuff and get out of here!” Ethan glared at Lorien, showing her the door directly.

Lorien curled her lips upward, thinking Ethan must be in love with Alice, for he was willing to chase her away because of Alice’s sake.

Thus, she reckoned she needed to give Alice a call to see what was on her mind. Also, she would like to explain the earlier situation to Alice, knowing Holland wouldn’t go easy on her if he found out.

“Hi, I’m Lorien Thelva!” Lorien introduced herself as soon as the call went through.

“Miss Thelva, how may I help you?” Alice was a little surprised to receive a call from Lorien.

“There is something I’d like to explain to you about. To be honest with you, Ethan and I are not in the kind of relationship you think we are. It’s all a misunderstanding. I…” Lorien went on to explain herself.

Alice was stunned, blinking rapidly in disbelief. I saw it with my own eyes. How else could it be fake? She then quickly realized Lorien might have called her to give her an explanation so that she wouldn’t go around spreading false rumors. At the thought of that, she echoed Lorien’s words and said, “Yeah, sure. I got it.”

Lorien paused in disbelief, not expecting Alice to buy her explanation so easily. Wait, this is surprisingly easier than it should be. Lorien was prepared to have a lengthy conversation with Alice, but before she could – even get to the part about her relationship with Ethan, Alice told her she got it.

“I’m going to make a move soon, so you might want to come back as soon as possible.” Lorien had called Alice to persuade her to come back before Ethan did anything else silly.

“Wait, what? You’re leaving?” Alice raised her voice.

Alice’s dramatic reaction left Lorien slightly stunned, and she couldn’t help but wonder why Alice was so
