    Chapter 181 Ethan’s Scheme (3)


    Ethan’s gaze turned cold as he cast a chilly nce at Bruce before shifting his attention back to Alice.


    Seeing her slightly furrowed brows, it was clear that she was bing impatient. Bruce is truly like a


    pesky fly: he’s noisy, annoying, and disgusting. Also, he can’t understand in words either.


    Just then, his gazended 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 in words, and I don’t want to waste my breath. His words could be taken as an


    exnation for why he kissed her.


    Meanwhile, she just looked at him, blinking. Even if Bruce can’t understand in words, is this really


    necessary? However, she had to admit that the kiss did indeed have an immediate effect.


    At that moment, Bruce waspletely 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 be


    unrted individuals. Did he just kiss me?! Whom am I supposed to reason with?!


    Bruce’s face turned unpleasant after Alice chided him, but he dared not do anything, considering that


    Ethan had just kissed her.


    At the same time, a smile yed on Ethan’s lips. Little Fox always knows how to provoke others. She


    usually infuriates me, but now, it seems like she’s quite gentle to mepared to Bruce.


    “You didn’t sleep wellst night. Do you want to rest for a while?” He ignored Bruce and kept looking at


    Alice with a very gentle expression.


    Alice felt her heart pounding when Ethan looked at her with such eyes. He seems strange today.


    When Bruce heard Ethan’s words, his expression changed instantly. How did he know that she hadn’t


    slept wellst night? Was she with himst night? Not only that, he’s being so gentle and considerate to


    her. What is their rtionship?


    At this thought, he narrowed his eyes. Why does this idiot deserve such gentle treatment from Alice?


    Also, her attitude toward me haspletely changed. Is it because she has set her sights on Mr.


    Knight that she no longer cares about me? If that’s the case, I won’t let her have her way.


    “Alice, fret not about my promise to marry you a few days ago. I won’t go back on my word.” He


    deliberately said this for Ethan to hear. Ethan’s eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing that. He was well


    aware of what Bruce was referring to, for he had heard everything that night in Royale. Yet, since he


    long


    suspected that Alice probably had another motive, he didn’t bother asking her about it. Initially, he


    thought about letting this matter slide, but he didn’t expect Bruce to bring it up again.


    Meanwhile, Alice felt like she wanted to kill Bruce. Can he be any more disgusting?


    Upon seeing his wife’s anger, Ethan decided to appease her first. “Are you angry? Why don’t I do


    something to make you feel better?”


    “What do you have in mind?” With her mood not being the best at the moment, her eyebrows


    instinctively arched when she heard that.


    “Since the ne has just taken off and isn’t too high above the ground yet, why don’t we throw him


    out?” Although his tone was gentle and his expression seemed affectionate, the words he spoke were


    far from tender.


    At this moment, Bruce’s face turned ugly. He thought his remark would upset both Ethan and Alice, but


    he didn’t expect Ethan to coax his wife instead of getting angry at her.


    Why is he treating Alice like this?


    Meanwhile, Alice nced briefly outside, then casually replied, “Seems a bit too high, though. It would


    be too easy for him to die from the fall.”


    “In that case, do you have any other ideas?” Ethan’s expression remained gentle, and his tone was soft


    as he discussed with her.


    “How about tying him to the airne’snding gear?” Once she became ruthless, she was no less


    cunning than Ethan.


    At her words, he couldn’t help but smile. Now, that’s my girl. She’s the best.


    “That’s a good idea. Let’s go with what you’ve suggested.” He nodded earnestly and beckoned to one


    of the flight attendants.


    “What can I do for you, Mr. Knight?” The flight attendant recognized Ethan and was quite familiar with


    him.


    “This gentleman feels that the airne cabin is too stuffy and wants to go out for some fresh air. Let’s


    fulfill his wish and tie him to thending gear,” he instructed the flight attendant based on Alice’s earlier


    suggestion.


    After being stunned for a moment, the flight attendant politely smiled and replied, “Alright.”


    Alice had merely spoken without much thought. She only wanted to vent her frustration, so she didn’t


    expect Ethan to actually convey her words to the flight attendant, and she certainly didn’t anticipate the


    flight attendant agreeing to it.


    Initially, Bruce hadn’t taken Ethan and Alice’s words seriously at all. However, when he saw the


    seriousness with which Ethan instructed the flight attendant and the flight attendant’s immediate


    compliance without hesitation, hisplexion instantly turned unpleasant. Nheless, he still


    believed that Ethan was just trying to scare him. However, the next moment, the flight attendant turned


    directly to him, dropping the friendly expression she had while facing Ethan. She said sternly, “This


    way, sir.”


    “What? What do you mean? I’m a VIP too! What do you want to do to me?” He looked at the flight


    attendant with horror in his eyes. Are they being serious?


    “Since you’re our customer, we’re obliged to fulfill your request,” the flight attendant replied calmly


    without a trace of an oddity in her tone.
