It’s said you don’t hit a smiling face.
"Oh, you’re quite the talker."
Ethan Sterling chuckled quietly, leaving Seraphina Redgrave momentarily unsure of his meaning.
He called over Nathan Ayers, "Back to Hibiscus Garden."
Finally, you’re willing to leave here!
Seraphina was so happy she nearly jumped up, unable to hide her smile even under the mask.
The moment he prepared to leave, the food street instantly returned to that bizarre world.
Ethan Sterling walked in front, the streetlights stretching his shadow, resembling a demon’s arrival.
Seraphina suddenly felt a wave of gloominess.
Ethan Sterling is the devil!
Did he just say Hibiscus Garden?
Seraphina’s face turned pale. As soon as Ethan Sterling arrived at Hibiscus Garden, he would immediately know Seraphina wasn’t there. Given Ethan’s personality, it’s sure to cause chaos.
Even if Seraphina could escape briefly, as long as Ethan was in Z Nation, she’d have to stay on guard; revenge and rise were merely delusions!
Seraphina absolutely couldn’t let herself fall into danger!
Seraphina tried to calm herself as she watched the group withdraw grandly from afar. She tugged her hair, and suddenly a flash of inspiration!
In a flash, she hid herself using the corner of a snack shop, then swiftly dashed out, running towards Ethan’s convoy.
The convoy consisted of an assortment of luxury cars, with bodyguards getting into each one. Seraphina crouched and moved slowly, successfully evading everyone.
She chose a seemingly inconspicuous car, stealthily opened the trunk, quickly climbed inside, and gently closed the trunk door from within.
Finally, mission accomplished!
Seraphina patted her wildly beating little heart.
Returning this way without being seen might actually work.
"President Sterling, we’re ready."
Hiding in the trunk, Seraphina heard Nathan Ayers’ sycophantic voice from outside.
Ethan Sterling wiped his hands with a pure white handkerchief, ready to get in the car. In the next moment, he seemed to notice something, looking towards the car Seraphina was hiding in, shaking his head with a smile.
"Bring it over, this one."
Nathan was a bit surprised; what’s President Sterling up to again?
Without a word, Nathan drove the car over.
Seraphina, hiding in the trunk, immediately felt how unfriendly the world was to her; how could she be so unfortunate?
After finally escaping, she was caught by Ethan in a place like the food street.
Now, the random car she got in happened to be the one he wanted to ride.
Would buying a lottery ticket today bring luck?
Luckily, the driver had no thoughts of a security check, as no one dared to casually get in Ethan’s car.
In no time, Seraphina felt the car speeding up.
"President Sterling, it’s my fault this time. Rest assured, it won’t happen again."
Nathan spoke cautiously, too nervous to even glance at Ethan.
Ethan didn’t seem angry, naturally sitting in the back. Hearing Nathan speak, he gave him a sidelong glance.
"If there’s another revolting woman like today, I’ll turn you into a woman."
Seraphina held her breath, shocked.
Ruthless, Ethan Sterling is truly ruthless.
"Don’t worry, if there’s another mistake, I’ll twist my head off and let you use it as a ball." Nathan wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking at Ethan. Years of experience told him Ethan’s mood was currently alright.
"President Sterling, what kind of woman do you prefer? Cute, obedient, fiery, or..."
Hearing this, Ethan glanced at the trunk, jokingly said to Nathan, "I like those who are a bit abnormal."
Nathan was about to collapse.
President Sterling, do you have some self-destructive tendencies? Aren’t you afraid of being duped again like just now?
Seraphina covered her mouth with all her might, preventing herself from making any sound.
Ethan actually likes abnormal people!
Knowing this enormous secret, would she be silenced one day?
Ethan stared at the moon tattoo on his palm, smirking as he said—
"If not for today’s accident, I wouldn’t have discovered the madman in Hibiscus Garden, quite interesting."
