Chapter 181 Ethan’s Scheme (3)

Ethan’s gaze turned cold as he cast a chilly glance at Bruce before shifting his attention back to Alice. Seeing her slightly furrowed brows, it was clear that she was becoming impatient. Bruce is truly like a pesky fly: he’s noisy, annoying, and disgusting. Also, he can’t understand plain words either.

Just then, his gaze landed on Alice’s slightly pursed red lips, and his eyes darkened for a moment. Suddenly, he leaned closer to her and kissed her lightly on the lips. He had been wanting to do this for a long time and finally had the chance to do so, even if it was just a gentle kiss.

Alice’s eyes widened abruptly as she stared at him, her astonishment evident and unmasked. Did he just kiss

me?

When he met her astonished gaze, he secretly let out a breath and whispered, “Some people don’t understand plain words, and I don’t want to waste my breath. His words could be taken as an explanation for why he kissed her.

Meanwhile, she just looked at him, blinking. Even if Bruce can’t understand plain words, is this really necessary? However, she had to admit that the kiss did indeed have an immediate effect.

At that moment, Bruce was completely stunned. His eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Ethan and Alice. For a moment, he even doubted his own eyes, thinking that he might have been seeing things or mistaken something. Did Mr. Knight just kiss Alice? I thought he was a quiet guy who rarely showed interest in women. Why did he kiss her?

“Alice, you two… Do you know Mr. Knight?” Although he was not very clever, he realized Ethan and Alice might be acquainted. His mind was running at full capacity as he thought of ways to gain from the potential connection between those two.

“Mind your own business.” Alice was truly annoyed with him at this moment. Why is he everywhere? Because of him. Ethan just kissed me! Apart from that night seven years ago, this was the first time she had been kissed. Did that really happen with Ethan? We’re about to divorce, and we’ll soon become unrelated individuals.
