Chapter 220 Mr Knight’s Suspicion
Ethan asked, “What could you possibly do to harm the Knight Family that I need to be worried about?”
Alice’s heart skipped a beat. Fine. I have overestimated myself once again.
Well, frankly, she was already used to it at this point.
“If that’s the case, please leave, Mr. Knight.” If Alice were strong enough, she would have kicked him out by
now.
He narrowed his eyes slightly. “What are you trying to hide?”
“Who are you for me to report my personal matters to?” Alice’s tone was calm and distant.
She had cut off ties with him. Even if she was using her identity as Alice Woland, Ethan no longer had any position to butt into her matters, especially now that she was Tanner West.
“You said so yourself. Mr. Knight. A small fry like me couldn’t do anything to harm the Knights. So, why are you trying to force an answer out of me?” Alice stared at Ethan with collected and reserved eyes.
Alice felt that she had explained her stance enough and that Ethan would back up. Yet, to her surprise, he did nothing of the sort.
Ethan’s eyes flickered and suddenly blurted, “We’ve met.”
It was a statement, not a question.
“What?” Alice was taken aback as she was unsure why Ethan suddenly said that.
“We’ve met.” Ethan stared at Tanner’s face and repeated himself in a slower, but more certain tone.
Alice blinked a few times and retorted, “Then, may I ask where we have met, Mr. Knight?”
She wanted to know where Ethan thought they had met.
He pursed his lips and didn’t answer. Still, he just had a gut feeling that he had met this person standing before him.
He even had a moment where he suspected Tanner West could be Alice.
She had a track record of disguising as a man last time with Irvin. Her disguise was so good that even he was fooled. So, there was a high possibility that she might have disguised herself as Tanner.
However, Tanner West was a well-known figure with his job and social circle. So, Alice couldn’t do everything that Tanner had.
Besides, Tanner and Alice had too many differences and there was little to no interaction between them.
So, Ethan felt as if he had gone mad just trying to find Alice. He observed the person before him who was in man’s clothes. Tanner was good-looking, but he had manly sculpted features instead of soft feminine features.
Some of the male characteristics were also obvious such as the stubble on his chin and Adam’s apple.
He felt that one’s appearance could be faked, but these things couldn’t. He was sure that he could see through it if it was makeup.
Besides, he had scrutinized every aspect and didn’t find anything off.
