Chapter 169 Why, Ethan Knight (1)

What else could Ethan say? So, instead of stopping Alice, he just watched her leave the room.

After she left the room and closed the door, he began contemplating. Am I not good–looking enough? No, it can’t be; I looked pretty handsome when I checked myself in the bathroom just now.

After going back to her room, she fell at once into a deep, dreamless sleep until early morning.
