Chapter 34

Irvin got on the other elevator. He thought hard, then pressed for the second floor. According to thepattern, she might stop on the second floor. If I go straight to the second floor, maybe I can catch up,then see what she is doing on every floor.

Irvin was right; Alice did stop on the second floor. To be exact, she was waiting for Irvin. She wasplaying a psychological tactic. However, this tactic was not aimed at Ethan, but at Irvin.

It was because if she wanted to get out without a hitch, she needed the cooperation of Irvin.

At this moment, Alice had changed her appearance. She had swapped her wavy curls for a man’s wig.Then, she replaced the sunglasses she was wearing with gold-rimmed glasses, which were also formen.

When the elevator stopped, she wiped off her makeup and disguised herself as a man.

It is said that makeup was comparable to a disguise, and it was indeed true. Moreover, Alice inheritedthe art from the Mache people.

When she came today, she was worried that she would be exposed, so she had prepared in advance.Of course, this was one of the habits she had developed over the past seven years.

In these seven years, Elijah had repeatedly sent people to finish her off. If she hadn’t been careful, shewould have died long ago.

The trench coat she wore was wearable on both sides, but the colors and styles of the two sides werecompletely different.

Alice flipped the coat and straightened it, and it immediately became something else—a male trenchcoat. Of course, this trench coat couldn’t be bought outside as she had designed it and it was tailor-made.

Then, she took off her shoes and threw them into the trash can before she took a pair of casual men’sshoes from her bag and put them on.

The pair of shoes was also specially designed whereby it had an inner heightening insole. In addition,the shoes were soft so they could be folded, and they didn’t take up much room in the bag.

Then, Alice cleaned the bag’s contents and threw them into the trash can.

The pants she wore today were unisex and in black. After she changed her shoes, she rolled up thepants by eight inches.

The inner color of the pants was light blue.

Immediately, the ordinary plain black pants transformed into stylish cropped pants. As the upper part ofthe pants was covered by the trench coat, only the light blue part was revealed, so it looked like it hadchanged color.

The elevator Irvin took stopped on the second floor. When he stepped out of the elevator, he saw aman walk over.

The man looked refined and clean, and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

He looked like a weak young man. Irvin was not into this type, so he glanced at the man and didn’t paymuch more attention to him.

Alice was delighted when she saw that. It seems that he doesn’t recognize me. Of course, I dressed uplike this because I knew that a gentry like Irvin despises weak young men the most!

Meanwhile, Irvin looked around in the corridor and didn’t see the woman he was looking for. The otherelevator showed that it stopped on the first floor. Does that mean she has gone down? Mr. Knight iswaiting in the first-floor lobby, so I must hurry to watch the show. The woman has pressed for every

floor on the sixth floor, so even if she got off on the second floor, the elevator would go to the first floorby itself.

Alice was fortunate today, as no one boarded the elevator when it stopped on the other floors. Whenshe arrived on the second floor, two women got on the elevator to go to the first floor.

When Irvin returned to the elevator, Alice followed suit and got on the same elevator. She lifted thecorners of her lips slightly as everything happened just as planned.

The elevator soon stopped on the first floor. When it opened, she immediately saw Ethan standing atthe elevator entrance. He obviously wants to catch me in the act!

Ethan first glanced at Irvin, then his eyes fell on Alice.

When Alice saw Ethan, there was a flicker in her eyes. This man is too handsome! Apollo is attractiveenough, but this man is on par with him. The big question is, is this man here to stop me? I’m sure Ihave never seen this man nor known him at all. If he is here to stop me, what prompts him to do it mustbe related to that night seven years ago. Is it possible that he’s that man? Could he be the man I sleptwith that night seven years ago? However, no matter what, before I get a clear picture of the situation, Iwill not yield and get caught.

Her mind was busy, but Alice did not show panic on her face. She knew very well that this man was notjust anyone, and he wasn’t easily fooled.

Then, she remembered when the elevator opened, the man before her first looked at Irvin in theelevator.

She was happy as everything had happened as she expected. There was another reason why shemade Irvin go down. If she came down with Irvin, he would surely distract the man.

As such, she exited the elevator one step ahead of Irvin with a natural speed, movement, andexpression.

No one could see any fault in her.

Then, Alice found that the two ladies who had just come down from the second floor were still in thehall and hadn’t left. Apparently, they were stopped by the man.

This man does not take chances and arrests everyone! How thorough of him!

However, Alice knew the two ladies could confuse the man for a while.

She had only taken a few steps when Ethan’s gaze turned away from Irvin and landed on her.

Ethan gazed at her and she immediately panicked. Despite that, she didn’t let the panic show on herface, and she still walked smoothly.

“Bro, hasn’t she come down yet? I stopped at the second floor and didn’t see her.” Irvin also steppedout of the elevator and looked around the lobby. After he didn’t replace the person he was looking for, hefrowned slightly. “Where did she go?”

When Alice heard Irvin call the man brother, she was shocked. She knew that man was not Irvin’sbiological brother, as she knew him personally.

If he isn’t Irvin’s biological brother, then there’s only one possibility—he is Ethan Knight, the youngmaster of the Knight Family, the head of the seven great families in Rodcaster. So it seems he is Mr.Knight of the Knight Family. I have nothing to do with Mr. Knight, and he has no reason to capture me.Of course, if Mr. Knight is the man from seven years ago, he has every reason to catch me.
