Chapter 184 The Love Rival (1)
The thing that concerned Cecilia the most was the relationship between Ethan and the woman in thephotos. Although she knew Alice only married Ethan for Caroline’s sake, she couldn’t help but replace thefact pretty annoying.
“That’s not important, Alice replied nonchalantly. After all, she was never Ethan’s real wife anyway. Nowthat she was going to divorce him soon, she didn’t care who that lady was to Ethan, for it didn’t matterto
her.
After reading the message. Cecilia smirked. ‘Why do I feel like slapping you in the face? You’re Ethan’swife! You guys are legal spouses! Legal! Where has your temper gone to?‘
‘Do you need me to replace out more about this lady?‘ Cecilia wasn’t exactly a gossipy person; instead,she just wanted to see whether there was anything out of the ordinary between Ethan and that woman.After all, she found out that the last time Ethan met that woman was before he married Alice. If Ethanstill hangs around with this woman even after they supposedly cut ties with each other, then thingsdon’t seem as simple as they
are.
As Cecilia’s best friend, Alice knew what was on her mind, but at the same time, she also knew Ethanwell enough to believe he was not a playboy. ‘Even if Ethan really did what you think he did, I doubt hewould meet up with that woman, not when we’re still bound by our marriage.‘
-Well, I, too, don’t think Mr. Winters is as bad as he seems…‘ Cecilia let out a sigh, thinking that Ethanwas a trustworthy man. Deep down, she wished Alice could take things further in her relationship with
Ethan as she wanted her friend to replace a soulmate whom she could entrust her future with.
Yup, I trust Ethan. He knows what should and shouldn’t be done. Alice sounded firm, but little did sheknow that she was about to be proven wrong.
The next morning, Alice woke up to her hunger around 6.00AM. She had been too tired the nightbefore and went to bed directly without eating. After that, she crept off her bed and headed over to thekitchen where she found some cooking ingredients in the refrigerator. Then, she began making herselfbreakfast, whereupon she served the food on the table and was about to enjoy it. At that moment, themanor’s door swung open just before a silhouette came to view, leaving Alice stunned.
Can somebody tell me what’s going on? She gazed at the figure that opened the door and walked intothe house as though the person owned the place.
Obviously, it’s not her first time being here. Seeing a visitor with a familiar face around six in themorning, Alice was instantly reminded of the photos Cecilia sent her the day before. Damn, I toldCecilia that Ethan wouldn’t have met this woman until we divorced, but it looks like I’ve been provenwrong. Dang it! Alice stared at the woman silently without moving.
Lorien looked back at Alice and blinked a few times, asking in confusion, “Are you the new babysitter?”
Alice was slightly stunned, but she didn’t admit nor deny it. After all, she didn’t know whether sheshould respond, considering the complicated relationship between Lorien and Ethan. Furthermore, herawkward position in the relationship also made it hard for her to think of an appropriate answer.
“Great. Please take my belongings from outside, will you?” Lorien thought Alice was the babysittersince Alice didn’t deny it.
Alice then shifted her gaze to the huge luggage Lorien had just wheeled into the house, wondering howmuch more stuff she brought with her. The next second, Lorien had already walked out the door with
Alice behind her back. However, when Alice walked right through the door, she accidentally closed the
door behind her.
While there were two more pieces of luggage and a duffel bag, Lorien carried two of them, whereasAlic took the other remaining luggage. Before Alice could even react, Lorien already overtook her andwas standing in front of the door. Since Lorien opened the door by herself, Alice believed she mustknow the password. However, instead of entering the password, she opened the door by scanning herthumbprint directly.
When Alice saw that, she blinked in surprise and started to wonder whether there was perhaps anaffair that Lorien and Ethan had. Nevertheless, she quickly thought of her six–month marriage withEthan that was going to end soon anyway. Therefore, she wasn’t really bothered by that discovery asshe believed her divorce from Ethan should face no trouble, considering how close he was to Lorien.
While Alice knew Lawrence had always been a generous man, it was clear to her that he had no ideaabou the agreement between her and Ethan. Initially, she was worried that Lawrence wouldn’t allow herto leav the Knight Family out of guilt, but now, she didn’t think she would have to worry about thatanymore. After all, she believed Ethan would replace a way to resolve the issue for the sake of his truelove. As Alice got absorbed in her train of thought, her eyes were filled with a gleam of happiness.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Lorien met Alice’s eyes and felt goosebumps running all overher skin. “L–Let me tell you something. I’m as straight as a ruler, got it?”
While Lorien got the wrong idea from Alice’s eye contact with her, Alice couldn’t help but laugh atherself in secret. Am I being too obvious?
“Wow! Am I seeing things? All the dishes here seem delicious. I’m starving! Can I join you?” Lorienentered the room, her eyes lighting up when she saw the table full of tasty dishes.
“Sure.” Alice couldn’t bring herself to turn Lorien down when she saw the latter’s expression.Furthermore, she didn’t mind sharing her dishes since she had cooked a lot of food.
“That’s great!” Lorien cheered in exhilaration without hiding her excitement.
In the meantime, Alice chuckled in amusement, thinking Lorien’s reaction reminded her of Caroline;she acted the same way Lorien did every time she saw something delicious. What was more, theirreactions were so similar that the expression on their faces looked similar.
Nonetheless, Alice had no hard feelings toward Lorien at all. While Lorien was halfway through eatingher meal, Ethan woke up, and Alice couldn’t help but wonder how he would feel the moment he sawLorien.
“Hey, you’re up. I must say that your babysitter is a pretty good cook.” Lorien glanced at Ethan while
continuing to eat. She ate even faster, seemingly worried that someone else might take her food awayfrom her.
“You’re the new babysitter, eh?” Ethan set his eyes on Alice, radiating a cold and intimidating aura.Babysitter? Was this how she introduced herself to Lorien?!
“What? What’s wrong?” Lorien was stunned, noticing Ethan’s darkened look that told her somethingwas wrong when she glanced at the two.
Ethan didn’t say a single word but instead kept his eyes fixated on Alice, seemingly waiting for herreply. Deep down, he wanted to hear what she had to say about the matter.
