Regret Came Too Late

Simon immediately answered, "Of course, you look good. Isn't that obvious? If

you let the media write about you, god knows how they'd hype you up! But then again, didn't you make it clear already that you don't allow the media to report on you?"

Simon, always clueless about matters of men and women, squinted his eyes after saying this.

"Ethan, when a man starts caring about his looks, it means he has someone he likes. Could it be..."

"No."

Ethan glanced at the liquor on the coffee table, reaching out to grab a bottle.

Simon quickly moved the alcohol away. "This is too strong. If you're going to drink, you should be careful with your stomach. I heard Mr. Henderson Senior warned you about this a few days ago.

"You should pay attention, especially after what happened. If you're really thirsty, have something with lower alcohol content."

And then, perhaps by coincidence, the bottle Ethan touched was the same one Grace had been drinking from.

Simon couldn't help but smile at the thought of Grace possibly vomiting alone somewhere.

"Grace's probably puking her guts out by now. She should be careful, though. There are always people around Velvet Eclipse looking for drunk people. If they find her, they won't let her go until a few days later."

"People looking for drunk people?" Ethan slightly raised an eyebrow, his fingers gently rubbing the armrest of his wheelchair.

Simon thought that Ethan didn't know what that meant, and he grinned.

"Yeah, those drunk people who get left on the side of the road. If someone finds them, they get taken away. By the time they wake up, all they can do is accept it. Grace may not be likable, but her face is really something else—nothing to pick apart."

After saying that, Simon couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about Ethan tonight.

He used to hate being around people, and they had to beg him to come out. Even though it had improved, he never attended events like this unless he was invited.

He just showed up on his own. "Ethan, did you set up

"No."
