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

Since a long time ago, Estelle had always felt strange when around Ethan. She had always had a lingering feeling that she had had dealings with Ethan before, and she felt that she seemed to have known him before.

However, after careful consideration, she didn't believe that she had known him befo

n the living room, where a traditional Chinese opera was being played.

When the butler led Ethan through to the living room, Bill opened his dim eyes and looked at him through heavy eyelids.

”What are you doing here?”

”I'm here to apologize to you.”

When Ethan stepped closer, Bill reached out his hand to pick up a cup of tea on the table. At the sight of this, Ethan immediately drew near and carefully handed the teacup to Bill's expectant hand.

”Why do you say that? Did you do something wrong?”

Bill sipped his tea to clear his parched throat, and his hawk-like eyes were domineering as he stared at Ethan.

”A woman came over this morning. Do you know her situation?”

Ethan got straight to the point. Upon hearing the question, Bill's hand froze in mid-air with the teacup still pinched between two fingers. After his hand hovered there for a second, he suddenly set the cup down with a loud thud and said, ”I threw that woman to feed the snakes. My guess is that by now, we won't even find her bones there.”

Ethan didn't say anything further and just waited for Bill to continue, wanting to hear what he would say.

”As a matter of fact, it's not a big deal. I don't think there is any reason for you to make an apology since we are good friends, after all.”

A trace of mockery fluttered across Ethan's eyes. 'Good friends?' Ethan wondered bitterly.

”Bill, that woman was right. I did cover up for someone.”

”Uh huh,” Bill responded casually.

”I knew that before she came here, but it hasn't brought about any substantial or adverse results in the scheme of things. So don't mention it again.”
