Chapitre 108: Ethan's Public Declaration

That the 'Tears of Airlie' would end up around Lily's neck shocked Alex.

Lily, avoiding Alex's gaze, tightened her grip on Ethan's arm.

"It seems Mr. Carter has received quite the refined upbringing at home—not the type to lose control and attack like a madman," Ethan said mockingly, raising his glass toward Alex with a cruel smirk.

Alice was furious but remained silent.

She understood that this was a conversation between men. If she interjected, it would only embarrass Alex.

Ethan's gaze was filled with disdain as he looked at Alex, but Alex only smiled lightly in return, raising his glass. "I didn't expect Mr. Blackwood to attend tonight."

B.E. (Blackwood Enterprise) had launched a series of attacks on Carter Group, but they were like punching a pillow—none had landed successfully.

B.E. likely suffered substantial losses this time.

Alex's words made Ethan's eyes narrow dangerously.
