Ethan’s Vengeance of Love
Chapter 79

Chapter 79

Everyone was staring at Alice. Someone recognized her, and they gasped, “Hey, that’s Alice!”

“That shameless woman who wanted to marry Bruce Yeager?”

“Yeah, but she failed. Bruce wouldn’t possibly marry someone like her.”

“Her scar is scary. It’s nightmare fuel. No way anyone would want to marry her.”

“She gave her company to him before they even got married. What a fool.”

“You stole from my friend. Of course, you need to be investigated.” Rachel Sonny, who came todemand an explanation, was scared at first, but when she realized who this woman was, she gainedher confidence back. This woman is nothing but a fool, and I have ‘proof’ she stole. There’s nothing tobe scared of.

“Evidence?” Alice looked at her calmly, as if Rachel was nothing but a maggot deserving nothing morethan disgust. Yet, there was an unmistakable sharpness behind that gaze.

Seven years ago, she lay low just to protect herself and the company. She left the city for seven yearsand didn’t explain herself because she just couldn’t be bothered. Now she was back and prepared forvengeance. That ruckus at the wedding was enough to send a message to the Yeagers.

The trap she set in the company would destroy Bruce, and Elijah was scared out of his wits justbecause of some photos. She did not need to hide her strength anymore. If it weren’t for the fact thatshe was married to Ethan, she would’ve launched an attack. And these fools think I’m easy prey?

Rachel gulped and her legs buckled, but then she was delighted when Alice asked for evidence.“Xandra lost her necklace just now. You can’t have hidden it anywhere else but your bag. You canprove your innocence if you just let Xandra check the bag.”

Alice knew this would happen and didn’t argue with her. Instead, she took her bag and placed it on thetable, smiling. “Here’s the bag.”

Rachel smiled smugly. Hah, you can fake it all you want, but in the end, you got scared. Now, we cando whatever we want with you. You’re done for.

Xandra Raine sneered as well. And I thought she was more capable than this. Turns out she’s nothingbut trash.

Just then, Alice looked at Xandra. Slowly, she said, “But…” She paused for a moment, cocked hereyebrow, and said, “You can’t search it. You’d dirty my bag.”

“What did you say?” Xandra’s face darkened as she felt humiliated. She might just be a no-namemodel, but she had never been insulted like this before, especially not after she became Keith’swoman.

Rachel, who was Xandra’s manager, flew into a rage. “Do you know who she is? She’s Keith’s woman,”she threatened.

Keith was in a corner. He narrowed his eyes, and murder flared within them.

Alice smiled, but it was a mocking smile. “So what?” She paused for a moment, and then she said, “Noteven your boyfriend has permission to go through my bag.”

The crowd was in disbelief. Keith was a terrifying man, and no one would ever go against him. No onewould disrespect him openly. They thought Alice was done for.

Keith cocked his eyebrow and smiled. He was reminded of someone, and the memory floated to thesurface of his mind. Despite so many years, the memory was still as vivid as ever. Yet, he had no idea

this girl was such an adorable and interesting soul. He looked at Alice, and his smile got bigger. I neverthought I would run into her again seven years later. This must be fate. Fate wants us to meet again.

As if she finally found something to threaten Alice with, Rachel shouted, “What? You said Keith doesn’thave the right to go through your bag? You’ve gone mad.” She knew Keith was around, and she wassaying that again so he could hear it, thinking he would get angry.

“Fine. Then give me a reason why he can go through my bag. Or you can ask him to do it himself.”Alice cocked her eyebrow calmly.

Keith’s smile turned into a grin, and there was love in his eyes. It’s been years. You’ve grown. You’rebolder now. Challenging me, eh? But it’s fine.

The man beside Keith thought he would be mad, so he grabbed the chance to butter him up. “Thatwoman is disrespecting you. Should I get someone to teach her a lesson?”

Keith shot the man an icy look, and he blurted, “She said that I don’t have permission to go through herbag. Do you think you’re more important than I am that you can go through her bag?”

The man froze, and a chill ran down his spine. What does he mean? She said Keith has no permissionto go through her bag, and he agreed to it? That’s not how he works.

Keith drawled, “I do have permission, but I won’t do it.” I can’t, he thought. They finally met again afterseven years, and he wouldn’t hurt her. All he wanted was to keep her safe.

Rachel continued, “I think you’re scared. You don’t want us to go through your bag because Xandra’snecklace is in there.” Rachel was unafraid, thinking she held all the cards in her hand. “You’re scaredbecause you’re guilty. When I replace the necklace in your bag, you’re getting it.” Rachel wanted to forciblytake the bag.

“Try me.” Alice didn’t move, but when Rachel was about to touch her bag, Alice looked at her hand.

Rachel stopped, her hand trembling. The bag was less than an inch away, yet she had no courage tomove forward. It felt like her hand would be cut off the moment she extended it.

She wasn’t the only one who got scared; everyone at the party was as well. Even Keith was a littlesurprised. My, what a surprise. I’ve never seen a woman with her aura. She spoke softly and the look inher eyes was calm, and yet a strong current raged underneath those still waters. I like her. The oldman’s been asking me to get married all this time. He used to think it was annoying, but now hethought the proposition was just fine.
