Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

As Mr. Knight’s brows twitched, he suddenly said, “Show him Alice’s photo.”

“Alice’s photo?” Derek was startled. “Do you still think that woman is Alice?”

Although he wasn’t on the same page as Ethan and thought that it was impossible for it to be Alice, he

still asked people to look for the woman’s photo immediately.

“It was Alice’s 18th birthday last night, so there was a birthday party at Magnificent Hotel.” When Caleb

heard Mr. Knight mentioning Alice, he quickly reported to him what he just found out about her.

“Alice was at the Magnificent Hotel last night?” Derek showed interest again. If that’s the case, the

possibility that it’s Alice has become more likely.

Meanwhile, Ethan was seemingly startled as well. Her 18th birthday?! She’s so young! Luckily she’s

not a minor anymore.

Derek worked with great efficiency, for he got a photo of Alice from his people almost immediately.

In the photo was a woman with no makeup on, but she was so beautiful that one couldn’t take his eyes

off her. Even for a person like Derek who was used to seeing pretty ladies, he still couldn’t help but take

a few more glances. She’s really drop-dead gorgeous. In fact, she kind of looks like Alice from Alice in

Wonderland.

“Is this her?” He showed the photo to the driver.

At the same time, Ethan was looking at the driver with his poker face as usual, but if one looked closer,

they would find that his eyes were actually shaking.

After the driver looked at the photo in Derek’s hand, he froze for a while without speaking for some

time.

“Is it really her?” Derek widened his eyes, and there was even a change in his tone. Is it really Alice?

Did we find the person just like that?!

Meanwhile, the emotion wave in Mr. Knight’s eyes seemingly became stronger.

“No, that’s not her. Although the woman was quite good-looking, she isn’t this pretty.” The driver finally

snapped out of his daze and shook his head continuously. “This girl is too gorgeous. I’ve never seen

such a beautiful girl before. I’ve been enthralled by her. Is she a goddess?”

“It’s not her, then?” The emotions Derek went through were as though he was riding a rollercoaster.

The more excited he got just now, the more disappointed he was at that moment. He thought that they

had found the person they wanted, but they had rejoiced too soon.

When Ethan heard that, he knitted his brows together as the emotion wave in his eyes faded, but his

poker face was complemented by a brooding expression.

“Can you describe what the woman looks like?” Derek felt that it would be a clue since the driver had

seen that woman before.

He dialed the number of the station’s forensic artist and put him on speaker. Then, the driver described

the features of the woman, and the forensic artist sketched them out.

20 minutes later, the forensic artist sent the sketch that he drew according to the driver’s description to

Derek’s phone.

After he tapped open the picture, he showed it to the driver again.

“Yes, yes. It’s her.” The driver nodded after looking at it. “This sketch is so accurate. Our police really

are something.”

Hearing that, Derek stood up and showed the sketch to Ethan. “Boss, take a look.”

When Ethan saw the sketch, his brows snapped together subconsciously. No one knew what was on

his mind, but he suddenly asked, “Where did she get down?”

“At the entrance of Starry Park.”

“She’s really cautious.” Derek, being the police chief, was impressed by her. She actually got down at

the entrance of a park? How are we going to find her? No one lives at the park.

Even though he was the police chief and could check all the security footage around Starry Park, he

might not be able to find anything since that woman was so careful.

“Wait, this woman looks kind of familiar.” When he looked at the sketch on the phone again, his eyes

widened slightly. “I know her—she is an acquaintance of my cousin sister. I’ve seen her once at my

cousin sister’s house.” His memory was so good that he could even tell them the name. “Emma

Woland. This woman is Emma Woland.”

“Emma Woland?” Caleb reacted immediately and asked, “She’s a Woland too. Is she related to Alice in

any way?”

When Derek heard that, he looked at Caleb, and both of them got into action at once to find out.

Now that they had their hands on such important clues—the sketch and the identity of the person in the

sketch—it would be much easier to look into the case.

As Caleb and Derek both worked with high efficiency, they were able to find out the few most important

pieces of information before long.

“Emma Woland is Alice’s cousin sister. She’s the illegitimate child of Alice’s second uncle, Elijah

Woland. He brought her into the Woland Family six years ago.”

“Yesterday night was Alice’s birthday party, so Emma was at the Magnificent Hotel too.”

“Mr. Knight, the bag that you asked me to look into belongs to Emma.”

“Boss, it looks like the person that you’re looking for is most probably Emma Woland.” Derek felt that

they already had the final answer.

At this moment, Ethan had the tracker which he took back between his fingers and was fidgeting with it.

His gaze was seemingly on the tracker, but he didn’t look like he was looking at it. He just stared with

deep and brooding eyes.

In the meantime, Derek and Caleb kept quiet.

Out of the blue, Ethan looked up. “Take the fingerprints off the handcuffs and do a fingerprint

comparison.”

“Who should we compare it against?” Caleb tried to probe, for he could tell that things definitely

wouldn’t be so simple from how deeply Ethan was lost in his thoughts just now.

“Are you dumb, Caleb? Who else? Emma, of course. It’s already so obvious. Do you really need to

ask?” Derek felt that what Caleb asked was just stupid. Why does he need to ask when it’s already so

obvious?

Yet, Ethan suddenly said, “Alice.”

It was obvious that he was answering Caleb’s question.

“Huh? Why do we need to compare the fingerprint with Alice’s? All our evidence points to Emma. Why

not compare the fingerprint to hers but Alice’s instead?” Derek was slightly stunned. What kind of logic

is this?

“Mr. Knight didn’t say to not compare the fingerprint with Emma’s, but we must compare it with Alice’s.”

After so many years of being by Ethan’s side, Caleb naturally understood the Knights.

“Okay, we can do that too.” Under this situation, it would be of no harm to do another fingerprint

comparison. “I’ll take the prints on the handcuffs…” Derek came to a halt and suddenly exclaimed,

“Handcuffs??”

He hadn’t been paying attention earlier, so he wasn’t aware of the issue until now. Since he didn’t know

what had happened in Ethan’s room, he was totally confused. “What handcuffs? What happened?”

At this moment, it was obvious that Ethan’s expression had turned dark.

Meanwhile, Caleb kept his mouth shut and didn’t dare say anything. He didn’t even dare to breathe a

little louder.

“What happened, boss? Why were handcuffs involved? Who used them?” Derek was the police chief

after all, so his logical thinking was quite good. “Did that woman use handcuffs on you?”

When he saw how Ethan’s face turned darker and Caleb lowered his head even more, he knew that he

had guessed it right.
