Chapter 185 The Love Rival (2)

“Well, I guess I should leave you both to it. I shall return to my room.” Alice reckoned she should sensibly walk away at that moment, thinking it wasn’t appropriate for her to be a third wheel around them. Therefore, she quickly made her way to her room upstairs as soon as she finished her sentence without even waiting for Ethan to respond.

why are you so mad? I was just saying. You don’t have to be so worked up, plus I’ve never seen you acting so emotionally before.” Lorien’s eyes were filled with excitement as she knew Ethan was someone who wouldn’t get emotional so easily, but he seemed to be mad over something she deemed trivial this time. “Hmm, I’m sensing some other possibilities here.
