Chapter 128 - 128: Terrible Acting (2/2)

”Get out of my way.” He glowered, harshly swatting her hands off him as if they were disgusting bugs.

Yang Hui flinched from his cold and unforgiving glare.

A dark, menacing aura radiated from his towering figure. Yang Hui was frozen, completely petrified.

Seeing that she was affected by the murderous intent he was emitting, Ethan walked pass her.

Yang Hui clenched her hands harshly that it turned bluish. Her lower lip almost oozed blood because of the pressure from her teeth as she bit it.

Raging eyes turned back to where Ethan went before following after him.

She saw him come back to the table he and Lillie shared, only to find it empty.

Yang Hui composed herself and put on a worried facade. ”Oh, are you looking for Thea?”

Ethan grunted as he gave her a side glance. ”Where is she.” He demands.

An innocent look spread across her face. ”Hmm...I saw her going up the elevator when I went to the washroom. She looks really flustered too. Maybe she had too much champagne.” She shrugged.

”Do you know which floor?” He asked. The hotel's elevator indicates which floor the elevator was at. This was a good alibi that could save Yang Hui from questions later on.

Not that it matters, really.

When Ethan knew that his wife slept with another, no matter how much he treasures her, his pride will always force him to relinquish her.

Knowing Ethan, he would not keep a dirty woman.

Besides, no man wanted to wear a green hat [1].

”I think it was...the 25th floor?” She answered with an unsure tone.

Ethan wanted to scoff at her terrible acting.

Like, who would wait to see where the elevator would stop if you're not using it?

Either you're a very curious person, or had ulterior motives.

And Yang Hui was the latter.

”You wouldn't happen to know which room she's at, would you?”

Yang Hui's eyes widen. ”W-what are you talking about? Of course I wouldn't.” She denied.

Humph! As if he believes her.

Just based on how she quickly denies the accusation and her reaction, it's clear that she's suspicious.

Ethan scoffed and walked away.

Leaving a very confused and frustrated Yang Hui.
