493 Tricking the Wolf Out of Its Den
Ata posh Birmingham apartment downtown, Ryan opened the door to Ethan's apartment. He was then taken aback by what he saw.
Many clothes were scattered across the floor, from the doorway to the hallway. If Ryan hadn't known Ethan beforehand, he would've thought that some people were having s*x in the room.
Then, Ethan pushed open the bathroom door dressing in a lady's pink bathrobe.
Without makeup on, he looked just like one of those typical good-looking college boys. However, his every move was somewhat feminine.
"Hi, Ryan. Why don't you take a seat?" Ethan tightened his robe around him and pointed to the couch.
Ryan frowned as he noticed the couch was also piled with clothes. He walked over and pushed the clothes to the side, making room for himself. After that, Ethan sat in front of the dressing table. He began his skincare routine before putting on his makeup and placing all the needed products on the table. Watching him, Ryan stood there silently.
After forty minutes, Ethan set down his makeup brush and returned his gaze to Ryan. Instantly, Ryan's eyes widened in surprise.
Then Ryan gave him a thumbs-up and exclaimed, "That's incredible! You're really good at pretending to be a woman, I must say.**
Yet, Ryan's compliments didn't seem to please Ethan. He knelt and rummaged through the clothes on the floor, pulling out a pair of black stockings and slowly putting them on. 492 Tricking the Wolf Out of Its. il Seeing that, Ryan was embarrassed and even ducked his head to avoid looking Ethan in the eyes.
Aiter putting on his stockings, Ethan got up and rummaged through his closet, taking out a blonde wig eventually. He then looked in the mirror, put it on, and began brushing his hair.
"Do you think I'm beautiful?" Ethan asked in a sweet, feminine tone as he turned around. He winked sensually at Ryan, stretching his slender thighs forward and slowly lifting the hem of his robe.
Ina fluster, Ryan threw one of the high heels he found on the floor, and Ethan screamed in pain after being hit in the call.
"Don't talk to me like that!" Ryan shouted,
"I wouldn't have agreed to this stupid request of yours if it weren't for my master's degree,' Ethan said angrily, covering his calf. "Hand me that," Ethan said, motioning to the pile of clothes on the floor. Ryan followed his gaze and frowned when he noticed a chest pad.
Amused by his expression, Ethan couldn't help but make fun of him, saying, "What are you afraid of? You're not a virgin anymore, are you?"
"If you dare to say one more word, I'll make you drop out of school," Ryan said as he grabbed the two chest pads on the floor and threw them at him hard.
As if he didn't care if Ryan was there, Ethan removed his robe and put on the pads. The pads looked extremely realistic, so Ryan was embarrassed even though he knew Ethan was a man. "HI give you thirty seconds to put on your clothes!"
"allright, sweetie."
Ryan cringed as Ethan said it again in a dainty female voice.
After changing, Ethan raised his phone and said, "She texted me." 492 Tricking the Wolf Out of Its. -
"Are you prepared for this?" Ryan asked as he looked at the screen and saw a location on Google Maps. "Without a doubt! I just need to act as a beautiful spy. It's not difficult for me because I act like that every day." "Did you remember everything I told you yesterday, too?" Ryan asked as he saw Ethan's confident attitude, "Don't worry!" said Ethan, nodding.
They then went downstairs and got into a car together. Ryan took the Wheel, and Ethan sat in the passenger seat. The engine roared as the car accelerated toward its destination.
After they arrived at the location, they discovered that it was a very modest and run-down little restaurant that was located in a narrow alley on the outskirts of town. The dirt had stained the wooden sign on the restaurant's door, making the letters appear blurry.
The restaurant was small, and the first thing Ethan saw was a man preparing food on an open stove beneath the roof shed. Ethan greeted him, but he just laughed and stared at him. The next moment, Ethan frowned as he suspected the man was intellectually challenged.
There was only one other customer in the restaurant, a woman dressed in a black jacket and a thick mask. When she heard the sound of high heels, the woman looked up at Ethan. Ethan frowned as he looked around and then used a stack of paper towels to wipe the tin bench. He finally sat in the chair after a long time. Then he began wiping the greasy table. After a long time, Ada couldn't help but ask impatiently, "Are you here to do the cleaning?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm kind of a neat freak. There is grease all over this damn table." Ethan abruptly took his phone from his pocket, found a link, 492 Tricking the Wolf Out of Its. ill and said, "This place is too far from downtown, and the money I brought is not enough for me to take a taxi. Could you please give me some money?"
Just as Ethan was at a loss for words, Ada stared at him and asked indifferently, "How much is it?"
"It's only twenty dollars. I asked the driver waiting to take me back later, so the total cost is forty dollars."
Then Ada took a $100 bill from her pocket and said, "Keep the change."
Ethan fumbled with his phone. After a brief pause, he said again, "You're cool and generous, and I really like you. Do you want to collaborate with me later again?"
I agreed to meet with you because you said you had critical information. Just tell me right now. I don't have much patience, and I'll be leaving soon."
Then Ethan complained, "This middleman you got is untrustworthy. He not only took a large sum of money from us but also tried to trick us further.**
At that point, Ada had had enough of him and interrupted him, saying, "Let's get to the point! I'm not interested in hearing that nonsense."
After a while, Ethan showed her a QR code.
"What is this?" Ada asked, her brow furrowed.
"Here is the proof! I recorded the evidence and uploaded it to the cloud. You can watch the video by scanning this QR code," Ethan explained.
