"So incompetent, idiots, all of you are losers."
"I'm sorry for the failure, but Ethan Herd isn't that simple. We thought we could take him down this time, but unfortunately, we underestimated him."
"Of course he's not simple. Such a good opportunity missed, now he's on alert. Next time, it'll be difficult to find such an opportunity again. You've messed up my plans."
"Very sorry…"
…
Ethan didn't go straight home; first, he went to Blue Orchid Court and took a shower to ensure he didn't carry the scent of Nada Wright before he left.
When he got home, Scarlett Glenn was already asleep, and Mrs. Herd was wearing glasses, crocheting tiny shoes.
The shoes were particularly small, Ethan couldn't even fit his two fingers into them. He sat next to Mrs. Herd and asked, "Mum, what are you making these for?"
Mrs. Herd said, "For our grandson, of course. Look, aren't they pretty?"
Ethan nodded, "They're beautiful. But what if it's a girl? Wouldn't you like that?"
