Chapter 190 Appeasing Mr. Knight
However, it sounded like Ethan’s anger hadn’t subsided at all. Instead, he sounded even more agitated. Could it be that Miss Thelva didn’t go back?
“Wherever you are, come back within an hour,” Ethan ordered harshly without waiting for her to finish speaking. He didn’t want to listen to her anymore as her words would only make him angrier.
As soon as the call ended, Alice glanced at the phone and then at Apollo, who was sleeping beside her as she rarely had the chance to keep the little guy company. Her eyes flickered as she wondered whether Lorien had really left, which was why Ethan was so furious. If Miss Thelva did leave, wouldn’t I be digging my own grave if I go back now?
After thinking it through, Alice thought that she should first give Lorien a call to confirm. In order to not wake Apollo up, she took the phone and headed to the balcony before dialing Lorien’s number.
When Lorien saw Alice’s number on the phone, she couldn’t help but smile. Instead of answering the call, she looked at Ethan and said, “Alice is calling me. What do you think she’ll say?”
Ethan’s gaze turned cold, and his expression became grave, making him look particularly terrifying. He had called Alice and told her to come back, but she was calling someone else. What is she up to?
On the other hand, Lorien beamed when she saw Ethan’s ghastly expression. She pressed the answer button and even put it on speaker.
“Miss Thelva, where are you? Didn’t you return to Lule Villa?” Alice asked without beating around the bush.
“I’m here.” Lorien glanced at Ethan, who was standing beside her, and she couldn’t help but curl up her lips.
“Then why did Mr. Knight call me just now? He was still furious.” Alice was taken aback. Since Lorien was still at the villa, she couldn’t understand why he was so worked up.
Mr. Knight? Hearing Alice’s address, Ethan couldn’t help falling into deep thoughts. How eager is she to disassociate herself from me?
“I wasn’t able to appease him.” Lorien’s words intentionally hinted at something.
“How could that be? If you can’t appease him, then no one can.” Alice was stunned, seemingly not understanding the meaning behind Lorien’s words. Indeed, Alice was dull when it came to matters of the
heart.
“I have already tried my best, so what else should I do?” Lorien looked at Ethan again and deliberately asked.
