Chapter 143: Was last night your first time?

Ethan's comment came out of nowhere, catching Aria off guard. Her face fell immediately as she glanced nervously at Katherine's room door, fearing their secret might be discovered.

"You said it was just that one time!" she hissed, anger seeping through her clenched teeth, her eyes blazing with fury.

"Hey, I'm not threatening you," Ethan replied innocently while eating, "Miss Aria, your cooking is really delicious. You know, after a good meal, one tends to want to... do things."

"I refuse!" Aria's voice was low, barely containing her anger.

"Oh well, never mind then." Ethan shrugged with a hint of regret and continued to enjoy his meal, praising the food as he ate.

Aria watched him, her suspicion briefly flickering when she saw no further threats coming. She noticed how earnestly he was eating, the dishes she had prepared for Katherine, who hadn't even glanced at them. Instead, it was this devil who threatened her, lavishing praise.
