Chapter 46
If he guessed correctly, there would be no end to the Woland Family kicking up a fuss, and Sophia would make things worse until Alice was forced to her death. The cruel part of this incident was that an 80-year-old woman with a wound on her face framed her granddaughter.
Therefore, many strategies could not be used. In fact, he had no good solution unless there was sufficient evidence to prove that Alice did not hit anyone! However, it was obvious that none of the members of the Woland Family would help Alice, so it was difficult for her to produce evidence.
“I want to see evidence on the Internet tomorrow that Alice did not hit anyone. Take some people with you to carry it out.” Ethan felt that he should also use some special means for such a special situation.
Caleb was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly understood and responded, “I understand.”
What Ethan meant was that it did not matter what method was used, and it did not matter whether the evidence was true or not. As long as it was useful, it could help Alice!
Ethan was quite tense because of Alice’s matter, but Alice did not take it seriously at all, and Apollo was not worried either. All he wanted was to contact Ethan. Apollo now had a phone number, which his teacher, Sam Surthing, found out for him. Sam said that this number was the number of someone who was with Ethan. If he called this number, he would probably be able to find Ethan.
Apollo always did whatever he wanted, so without any hesitation, he dialed this phone number.
Liam was listening to Ethan discussing with Caleb how to solve Alice’s problem with Sophia. Liam could not figure it out; Ethan was not a nosy person, so why did he want to help Alice?
Just as he was thinking, his phone rang suddenly. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Liam frowned slightly. He hung up the call instead of answering it, yet within two seconds, the number called back again. Liam thought for a while before pressing the answer button.
“I want to talk to Ethan Knight. I heard that I can find him by calling this number. Can you let him answer the phone?” Liam had just connected the call, but before he could speak, a voice came from the other end of the phone.
Liam was stunned when he heard this.
“Who are you?” Although Liam was a frank and straightforward person, only his words were forthright. On the contrary, he had always been cautious and meticulous in his actions.
A stranger had suddenly called him and said they wanted to talk to Ethan, and even called Ethan by his name. Thus, Liam had to interrogate this matter clearly as it was impossible to ask Ethan to answer the phone without being clear about it.
The point was, where did the other party get his phone number? How did the other party know that they could find Ethan through his number? © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Apollo, who was on the other end of the phone, immediately felt confident when he heard Liam’s words. Obviously, the number was correct, and he could actually reach Ethan by making this call.
“Get Ethan Knight to answer the phone. If you drag the time, you may not be able to take responsibility for the consequences.” Apollo knew that if he wanted Ethan to answer the phone, he had to say something that could convince the other party. He had checked a lot today about Ethan and knew that this man had everything he needed, so it was hard to find a way to convince the other party.
Thus, Apollo simply used this kind of ambiguous warning, hoping that it would be useful.
Liam was stunned for a moment. This person’s tone is crazy!
There were countless people who wanted to talk to Ethan, but this was the first time they used this kind of tone, and it worked.
“Ethan, an unfamiliar number called my number, and someone is looking for you.”
Regardless of whether the threat was true or not, he at least had to ask Ethan what it was about.
After all, there were not many people who knew his number, and even fewer people wanted to find Ethan through his number. As such, Liam did not dare to ignore this. Coupled with that threatening tone, he felt that it could be important.
“Someone called your number to find Ethan?” Caleb, who was just about to leave, stopped. His expression was slightly stiff.
“That person not only knows your number, but he also knows that he can contact Ethan through your number? Who is it?”
“I don’t know. He did not tell me his name, and just said that I won’t be able to take responsibility for the consequences if things are delayed.” When Liam said this, the corners of his lips could not help but twitch. Obviously, he did not take this threat seriously.
However, Liam had to admit that the other party was pretty good at it. Although he did not take the other party’s threat seriously, he still wanted to report this to Ethan.
“He called Ethan by his full name too,” Liam added. It was also because the other party called Ethan by his full name that it was hard for Liam to ignore the call.
It seemed that this person really understood how things worked!
“Huh, that person’s pretty wild. How interesting.” Caleb laughed. “He’s quite courageous; is he someone important?”
Although Caleb was smiling, he was a little serious. He looked at Ethan, waiting for his response.
“Give me the phone.” Ethan naturally did not care for this kind of stunt. He originally wanted to refuse, but he changed his mind.
So, Liam handed his phone to Ethan.
The corners of Caleb’s eyebrows were raised slightly because Caleb was a little surprised that Ethan would pick up the call. Caleb was not in a hurry to leave anymore; he wanted to see who dared to speak so recklessly to someone like Ethan. He even said that it was something so important that we won’t be able to take responsibility for its delay!
“I’m Ethan Knight.” After taking over Liam’s phone, Ethan spoke straight to the point.
His tone was indifferent and obviously without any emotion, but there was an air of overpowering aura that was suffocating. Apollo did not expect things to go so smoothly. He suddenly felt the other party’s aggressive aura through the phone. Apollo felt startled at such a strong aura, but he wasn’t scared. He could not give up at a time like this. So, he subconsciously sat upright and said in a very low voice, “So, you are Ethan Knight. Very good.”
Afraid that his childlike voice would expose him, Apollo used a voice changer. Then, he returned to his normal voice and said: “Seven years ago, you touched the most important woman in my life. How do you propose to settle this with me?”
Although Ethan answered the phone, he had not been taking it seriously. When he heard this, his eyes darkened slightly. “Who are you?”
Not many people knew what happened that night seven years ago. Apart from Caleb, no one else knew the full story, and even Liam did not know the details. As for Derek, he only made a rough guess. Obviously, this person did not get the news from him, but from her.
He knew that Alice was extremely vigilant, and it was absolutely impossible for her to just tell others what happened that night. Hence, what was the relationship between this man and her?
The most important woman…
Ethan sneered coldly, “You’re going to settle accounts with me? You’re using a voice changer, you’re afraid of telling me your name, and you’re keeping your identity hidden. How dare you settle accounts with me?”
