Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Chapter 19



At that moment, Ethan was inexplicably drawn to that pair of vibrant and lovely eyes while feeling his heart stirred. He thought
back on that night and wondered if she was as alluring as she was now with the glint in her teary eyes back then. Or was she
even more alluring back then? He then fished out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and held one stick between his fingers.
Caleb was stunned by such a scene as Ethan rarely smoked and had never done so in public. However, he became
dumbfounded when the latter started fiddling with the unlit cigarette instead. When did he pick up such a bad habit? Why is he
fiddling with cigarettes of all things? Is it because his hands are restless? Perhaps he plans to beat someone up? After all, even
Caleb wanted to do so after what he just heard. “Mr. Knight, the Yeager Family is merciless and cruel. Not only do they want to
take over the Woland Group, they also intend to take Miss Woland’s life. How despicable of them. What a pitiful life Miss Woland
has.”
Pitiful? Her? That Little Fox who is getting ready to draw up a bloodbath? Although he was a distance away, he was certain that
there was an impish glint in her eyes. He was looking forward to seeing just what sort of carnage she would cause.
“Miss Woland, although it’s your wedding day, now that we have evidence that connects you to Nathan Lewis’ case, we’ll have to
do things by the books and request your cooperation.” Freddie was adept in drawing the lines, as he was neither too cruel nor
partial.
Alice turned her head toward Freddie who was wearing a stern expression. “But, I’m not that person in the video.” She wore an
innocent expression with her eyes as clear as the mountain springs. Those transparent eyes of hers carried neither an ounce of
falsehood nor wisdom as she refuted the accusation as though what she said was a given.
Looking at her now, Ethan was momentarily startled before he erupted into laughter. That Little Fox sure has many faces.
“Alice, there are times when just denying things verbally isn’t enough, especially when there’s evidence that says otherwise.”
Naomi was close to laughing out loud. How stupid can this girl be to be denying that it’s not her as though it was a matter of fact?
Seems like there’s no end to how stupid this girl can be. She had meticulously set Alice up to the extent that the latter could not
refute the evidence. At first, she thought Alice would make a fuss, so she found it hilarious when Alice only denied the accusation
verbally without any shred of evidence on her part.
The onlookers couldn’t help shaking their heads upon seeing how Alice was acting in denying the claims, as they thought of her
as too naïve and silly. They knew it was meaningless to deny the accusation in such a way.
“Miss Woland, we’ll have to investigate thoroughly since we have evidence that states otherwise. I hope you would not make the
situation much more difficult than it is. Five days ago, I recalled that you’d just come back to Rodcaster as the media had taken a

photo of you at the Woland Group on the day Nathan Lewis was murdered.” Freddie didn’t take Alice’s denial seriously.
Everything was premeditated. Even Nathan’s case was arranged to happen on the day Alice would return to Rodcaster. As
everything was perfectly in place, it would be meaningless no matter how Alice tried to deny it. Now that various pieces of
evidence had pinned Alice to be guilty of murdering Nathan, all Freddie had to do now was take her back to the station.
“But, that person really isn’t me. The scar on that person’s face is different from mine. Not only is her scar longer than mine, it’s
also completely in a different place. Mine’s a downward scar starting from the top of my eye, whereas hers starts from the bottom
of her eye.”
While Alice was explaining about her scar, she parted the left side of her hair to reveal the full extent of her scar. When she had
hidden parts of her scar, it was a complete match with the one in the video. Now, the screen was paused on the image when the
woman in the video was coincidentally fixing the sides of her hair, which showed the full extent of her scar as well. It was then
everyone realized that the scars were different from one another. Not only was the length different, but the starting point of the
scar was different as well. With how vastly different they were, only a blind man would mistake them for one and the same. At
that moment, everyone was completely taken by surprise by the sudden twist in the matter.
Naomi was no exception, as her eyes widened in shock while her expression rapidly grew twisted. She was dumbfounded by the
sudden revelation as she was sure she had planned everything down to the dot. How did it turn out like this? How did things go
wrong?
Freddie was the same as he could no longer maintain the stern expression he donned.
“Chief Cooper, why would the DNA results be a match when I’m obviously not the person in the video, much less the murderer?”
Alice asked in a clear tone, her voice so pure that it seemed to have completely vanquished all the filths in the world.
With a clouded expression, Freddie could only stay silent as he was backed into a corner without anything to say for himself. In
truth, as a police chief, his first course of action should’ve been to verify whether Alice’s scar matched the one belonging to the
woman in the video. However, as the saying went, those guilty would always have a guilty conscience, so he didn’t dare to do so
as he was crippled with guilt. After all, he knew very well that it was just a sham.
On the other hand, Ethan’s smile slowly grew wider. Just what I’d expect from the Little Fox. Perhaps she’s indeed the one I’m
looking for?

Not one person from the crowd expected such a bizarre twist in the situation. Although everyone had thought Alice was just a
naïve person, she had just posed a question that struck right at the core of the matter. Since the Yeagers had invited quite a
number of reporters to the wedding today, wanting to sweep things under the rug after Freddie had caused such a scene would
be a difficult task. They shared the same thought that Alice was truly a fortunate person as she had ignorantly managed to break
through Naomi’s scheme. Nevertheless, they didn’t know what would happen next, nor what response Alice would give, and if
she intended to continue the wedding.
Sneaking a glance at Naomi, Alice acknowledged how formidable she was. She thought that the woman in the video should’ve
been quite similar to her in appearance from the start, plus Naomi must’ve had her undergo plastic surgery to look just like her.
And with the help of makeup and some video editing, the woman in the video looked extremely similar to her and close to a
carbon copy. Not only that, they had even falsified the birthmark on her back. Truly, it should have been flawless.
But, what a shame.
