Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Chapter 215 We Finally Meet Once More (6)
Suddenly, Ethan thought of something-Pierce’s fingerprints on the agreements. He remembered that experts claimed the
fingerprints were recently imprinted on the documents. But he was well aware that Pierce was in Cliaria. Thus, one would need
to go to Cliaria to get those fingerprints, and Alice would definitely do it herself since it was such an important thing.
Then, he recalled Alice’s disappearance at such a crucial time. His men had never found traces of her leaving Rodcaster, and he
believed that when he saw her leave Galerprises. However, now that he thought about it. Alice had indeed left Rodcaster and
been to Cliaria during those two days. The problem was that he needed help to figure out how she managed to avoid his men
and leave without a trace. Moreover, why couldn’t he find any clues about her departure?!
On the other hand, Lawrence was surprised by Ethan’s confidence in saying that Alice was the mastermind behind it all. He
genuinely wondered if Ethan had been blinded by love. Lawrence liked Alice, but he had never considered her capable of pulling
such a power move. Moreover, not many people were capable of executing such a plan flawlessly. When he first heard about the
Wolands, he wanted to find ways to help her out but soon noticed that there was nothing more he could do.
Thus, Lawrence didn’t feel that Alice could be the one behind this, at least not by herself. “Ethan, I think you might not know Alice
well. About the Woland Family...”
“Say, Dad, under what circumstances will one be able to leave Rodcaster and fly to Cliaria without any trace?” Ethan really
couldn’t figure it out.
“That’s not possible. If you want to fly to Cliaria from Rodcaster, you have to take the plane, and the airport will surely have
records of the individual’s trip. Plus, with your capability, you should be able to find where that person would be going even if they
were to take a private plane. There’s no way they could disappear out of thin air like that.” Lawrence didn’t understand why
Ethan had suddenly changed the topic.
A glint flashed across Ethan’s eyes. “But what if I can’t find anything?”
Once Lawrence saw that Ethan wasn’t fooling around, he started to analyze the situation. “If they didn’t board a private plane,
then there are only two circumstances. First, that person has never left Rodcaster in the first place. Secondly, they managed to
change their identity. However, the rules are strict nowadays, so you can’t leave with a fake passport. Lawrence looked at him
and added, “So, it’s highly likely that it’s the first situation.”

Does that mean Alice has used another identity to leave Rodcaster? Ethan frowned. But Dad’s right, though. The airport has
been very strict recently, so she won’t be able to get past the gate with a fake ID. Still, if she were to leave with a different
identity, that means the ID is legal. More importantly, the picture on the ID is truly herself. This doesn’t make any sense. After all,
no one can have two different IDs with the same face! Unless... She had undergone plastic surgery. Yet, Alice has only left for
two days, and she was still the same as ever when she returned!
While Ethan was deep in thought, Lawrence saw him frowning and asked, “What’s wrong? Did you encounter some trouble? Did
some dangerous person escape without a trace?”
“It’s Alice.” Ethan looked at Lawrence. “A few days ago, she disappeared out of the blue. I searched for her high and low for two
days and found no trace of her leaving Rodcaster. But I am certain that she has indeed left and gone to Cliaria.”
“Alice” Lawrence blinked in confusion.
“How do you think she did it? Ethan demanded as he turned to Lawrence.
Lawrence burst out laughing and replied, “That’ll only happen if she turns into a bird.” He didn’t mean to joke at a time like this,
but what Ethan was implying was insane.
Ethan’s eyes darkened when he heard Lawrence’s answer. After all, he merely decided to throw the question to Lawrence since
he didn’t know the answer. Yet, it seemed that Lawrence was equally in the dark about this.
“I think you might be overthinking it, Ethan. Alice is just a normal girl. Don’t think of her like those rivals of yours.” Lawrence felt
that Ethan’s imaginations were absurd. “I know you are anxious since you can’t find her. It’s normal, so you don’t need to
overthink it. We need to be realistic and stop making excuses. Maybe it’s because you didn’t look for her hard enough, Lawrence
intoned thoughtfully.
Ethan glanced at Lawrence and said nothing. After all, he himself had no idea what was driving him to think this way, so there
was no way he could explain his thoughts to someone else.
“Calm down, Ethan. Just relax,” Lawrence said earnestly.
Nevertheless, Ethan ignored him and instructed the driver. “Stop the car at the front.”
“You can’t just run away from your problems, Ethan. You have to face it.” Lawrence felt Ethan had gotten himself bent out of
shape and was pursuing a dead end. He wondered if Ethan had placed himself under pressure since he couldn’t find Alice.

Thus, he suggested carefully, I’m planning on meeting Tanner. Do you want to tag along? After all, you guys might have some
things to discuss since you are both youngsters.”
“Are you sure about that?” Ethan shot a bland look at Lawrence.
Lawrence didn’t say anything. After all, he knew Ethan like the back of his hand. Considering how reserved and quiet Ethan was,
he barely had any connections with anyone within his social circle.
Just come with me. It won’t take long. Plus, not only did Alice stay in Cliaria for some time, Tanner did too. Didn’t she say that
she knew him? Who knows? Maybe you might be able to find some clues if you visit him.” Lawrence was trying his best to
persuade Ethan to tag along.
Initially, Ethan had no intention of accompanying Lawrence. But he changed his mind the moment he heard that Alice was
familiar with Tanner. “Alright. I’ll go.”
“Excellent. I’m certain that things will surely go well now that I have you coming along.” Lawrence knew how capable Ethan was.
Although he was a man with few words, he would always get what he wanted. Otherwise, Lawrence wouldn’t have persuaded
him into meeting Tanner in the first place.
Lawrence suddenly felt an idea forming in his mind and decided to toss this matter to Ethan instead. Besides, he was ready to
retire at any time now that Ethan was an adult. So, he mused, “Since you’ll be tagging along, why don’t you take over the reins
for today’s discussion?”
