Chapter 1230 Develop An Interest In Raising Snakes (1/2)

Hearing what Louis said, the staff in the conference room, though unhappy, said, ”We will try our best to do that.”

When all the designers had returned to their offices, they were all grumbling that they would have to work overtime to perfect their own design drafts in time for the early submission. Only Estelle sat quietly in the corner after the others had left, wearing a strange and guarded expression, because she felt that there was something wrong.

Especially after the meeting had concluded, she had noticed that Louis had cast her a lingering glance, which had filled her with a sense of foreboding.

Maybe she was overthinking…

But it would be better if they could submit the design drafts ahead of time, so that she wouldn't have to fret about them every day.

That night when Estelle returned home, she caught sight of a slender figure at the entrance of the alley next to her apartment building.

As she walked closer to see who was hiding in the shadows, she suddenly took half a step back.

She was both nervous and fearful when she recognized the man who suddenly stepped into the light to face her.

Seeing the nervous expression on her face, Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly and felt displeased with the unwelcoming look she gave him. ”What's wrong? Don't you want me to be here?”

”No, no, but it's not appropriate for us to meet in public like this. After all, it will cause trouble to you if our relationship becomes known.”

”Oh? Is that so?”

Ethan slowly approached with a smile darkly flashing on his face, and he looked down with domineering eyes at the woman in front of him.

”You haven't changed at all, and you're still the same as before. You still don't dare to look at others when you tell a lie.”

Estelle was stunned by his words and looked at Ethan in a daze.

”The same as before? Mr. Ethan, what do you mean? Did we know each other before all this?”

However, Ethan shook his head and answered, ”No, we didn't know each other.”

His reply was too quick, and although it was resolute, Estelle's heart skipped a beat. ”That's impossible,” Estelle refuted.
