Ethan’s Vengeance of Love
Chapter 84

Chapter 84

“What? That’s a lie. I can sue you for slander!” Emma got nervous. She would never confess to that.She would not let her hard-earned reputation fall into ruins. She can’t do anything about it because shedoesn’t have evidence.

“It’s not a lie. I have proof. I recorded our conversation in case you denied you ever made a deal withme.” Xandra might just be a no-name model, but she had been working in the industry for years andshe had seen too much of its underbelly, so she picked up a few tricks along the way. She thenwhipped her phone out and played a recording.

‘Do something for me and I’ll get you a modeling job at Glenn Group.’ That was Emma’s voice.

‘What’s the favor?’

‘Slip your necklace into Alice’s bag and accuse her of theft. Once this is done, you’ll be a modelaffiliated with Glenn Group.’

That recording was proof enough, and Emma’s face turned as white as a sheet. She wanted to deny it,but the proof was right there.

“Ah, so Emma’s behind this. Then…” Alice looked at Emma and smiled, pausing for a whiledeliberately. Everyone thought she would let this slide because it was Emma. After all, despite thesabotage, Emma was still family.

Derek’s face fell. She can’t let this slide, can she? Emma obviously wants to ruin her. Can’t she seethat?

Under everyone’s curious gazes, Alice slowly said, “Then take her away, officers.”

Derek froze for a moment. Dear Lord, can’t you finish your sentence in one go?

“Oh, okay.” The cop couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Now that things are cleared up, there’s no need for any footage. May I have my camera back, Mr.Jenkins?” Alice looked at the ‘camera’ Derek was holding.

“Oh, okay.” Derek paused for a moment. He was a bit reluctant to give it back. We already have thelaptop. Why aren’t we watching the footage? However, the culprit had already confessed to the crime,so there was no need to watch it anymore. Moreover, he was embarrassed that he hadn’t found theUSB port on the ‘camera’ yet. To be fair, every time he tried to have a closer look, Alice would interrupthim.

Alice took the ‘camera’ over, still calm and collected as ever.

Ethan shifted his gaze from Alice’s face to the ‘camera’ in her hand, and then something glinted in hiseyes. That camera can’t be fake, can it? If it’s fake, then that act of hers was perfect.

“We’ll need you three to come with us,” the cop said quickly. He then turned to Alice and politelyrequested, “We’ll need you to come with us too as we need to take your statement.”

“Mr. Jenkins, she’s my guest, and now that the case is closed, there’s no need for her to go with you.”Keith stood up and approached Alice. When he looked at her, there was a gaze of protection in hiseyes.

Alice was the first woman Keith ever defended, and that fact shocked everyone.

Derek froze for a moment, then he looked at Ethan. What? Someone’s trying to defend Alice in front ofEthan? He can defend any other woman, but not this one. She’s Ethan’s wife. This is ridiculous.

Ethan said nothing, but he was still looking at Alice. Ever since he came into this room, she pretendedhe was air. The only attention she gave him was a glance. She could have called him if she was in

trouble, but she didn’t, and when he came, she pretended not to know him. Is she that scared abouteveryone replaceing out we’re married? Is she still going to pretend we’re strangers?

Alice looked at Keith and blinked. She knew this man. Seven years ago, when she found out she wasdrugged, she tried to run, but two men came after her. She was just a frail woman back then and shedidn’t know how to fight as well as she did now. On top of that, she was drugged, so there was no wayshe could outrun two men.

Just when she was about to be captured, she bumped into this man before her. He was also the onewho stopped the men from chasing her. She didn’t lose consciousness back then, so she rememberedhis face, but she had no idea he was Keith himself.

It was thanks to him that she managed to make her way into the restroom and disguised herself asEmma. When she came out of the restroom, the men didn’t realize she was in disguise, but Keith did.

After she went into the elevator, Keith came after her, and he stared at her in awe for a while beforeasking her what happened. Just when the doors of the elevator were about to close, Emma’shenchmen came after her again, presumably knowing she was fake when they saw the real Emma.She remembered how Keith beat up those men.

After that, Alice had been trying to seek him out so she could thank him. If it weren’t for him, she wouldhave faced a nightmare. However, things happened too suddenly so she didn’t have time to ask him forany details. She had no idea who he was, so she never did replace him. It was a surprise to see him here,and even more of a surprise when she found out he was Keith.

“Thank you.” There was a stirring of emotion in her voice. That gratitude was not just for the help hewas extending to her right now; it was also for the helping hand he lent her seven years ago.

If it weren’t for him, she would’ve been taken back to that room, where hell awaited her. She did loseconsciousness and ran into someone else’s room and had sex with him, but it was still better thanbeing captured, she thought.

Hey, wait a minute. He could’ve been the one to take me back to his room after he saved me fromthose men. He could be the one I slept with. I mean, he came after me. He might have come back tome again after he defeated Emma’s henchmen.
