Chapter 127
Of course, Stella wouldn’t want Ethan to know the truth. She wanted to give the impression that she was clueless about the sudden engagement.
Stella said she was forced to accept it and showed a willingness to break off the engagement with Ethan. To her. falling in love was the same as negotiating business. It shouldn’t be done in a rush. She needed to execute every little detail with a
strategy.
- I just added Kylie’s WhatsApp to my phone.” Stella said.
Ethan turned to look at her. It was as if only when Kylie’s name was mentioned would Ethan look at Stella directly.
“Do I need to explain our current relationship to her?” Stella asked kindly.
“You don’t need to, Ethan instantly refused.
“Are you sure? She seems to have misunderstood.”
is, Ethan said bluntly
“That’s why it’ll be better if you leave it as it is
Hearing his answer, Stella pursed her lips. She felt a little uncomfortable. She didn’t believe Ethan could be so distant from Kylie in just half a year. “Kylie… What is it that she has?”
When Stella first saw Kylie at the Hayden Group anniversary, she was indeed prettier in person than on television and in photos. She didn’t have to look around to notice Kylie’s figure. After that, she also noticed Ethan’s eyes were filled with love for her.
When they met again earlier, Stella observed Kylic up close. Both of them did not dress up so grandly, and Kylie did not even put any makeup on, but her face was fresh, clean, and as beautiful as a fairy.
But Stella didn’t want to think of Ethan as a vulgar person. Otherwise, there

be so many good-looking women who for many years, could not possibly show
Stella silently adjusted her emotions and smiled apologetically. “Alright. I guess I didn’t think it through.”
Then, the two of them continued in silence until the Ferris wheel touched the ground.
At that time, Kylie had already left with Joseph. Under the light, their tall and short figures could be seen. They looked comfortable and happy around each other’s company.
When Kylie returned home with Joseph, it was already 9:30 p.m. She ordered takeout on the way back and ate it once they got home. After they were done eating, she rested for a while before taking Joseph to take a shower and going to bed. Since Joseph was still very young, after playing outside all day, he fell asleep almost instantly.
Kylie was also very tired, but she had inexplicable insomnia. She kept her eyes on Joseph, who was beside her. She looked at his fair face, which was rosy after sleeping, and his slightly pouting lips.
Her eyes suddenly felt a little dry. But as she shifted her gaze and looked at her screen phone, there was suddenly an incoming call. She hesitated a little, but she decided to pick up the phone and walked to the balcony to answer the call.
“Kylie, so you’re finally willing to answer my call?” Her grandmother’s sarcastic voice came from the other end.
“What’s the matter? Kylie’s tone was cold.

w that he’s going to marry Stella now?
“What
are you trying to say?” She wasn’t stupid enough to think that Nadia would care about her.
“I told you long ago that Ethan didn’t like you, but you insisted on throwing yourself at him. Now, you’ve lost all of your self- respect, and…
Before Nadia could finish, Kylie hung up. She shouldn’t have put any faith in her own family.
As soon as she hung up, her phone rang again. But this time. Kylie didn’t pick up, at least until she saw Cohen’s name on her phone screen. “Kylie, is this how you treat your grandmother? Cohen sounded furious.
Kylie could imagine how angry Nadia was after she hung up on her. But she didn’t care. I’m not obligated to accept her insults or your criticisms. After that, Kylie planned to hang up.
But Nadia’s distressed voice was suddenly heard from the other end. “Jarvis said that you made him lose his job.” She probably knew she couldn’t do anything to keep Kylie on hold, so she finally revealed the purpose of her call.
“That’s his business. It has nothing to do with me.”
“It has nothing to do with you? Jarvis said that you got him fired from Hayden Group! Do you know the position he was at? He was an executive with an annual salary of two hundred thousand dollars. But now, he’s being disrespectfully fired. How am I going to explain this to your aunt?” Nadia became angrier as she spoke.
A few days ago, Nadia tried to call Kylie, but she didn’t pick up. If she hadn’t picked up her call that night, she would have gone to Kylie’s workplace the next day.
“You already said that he’s an executive. What powers do I have to get him fired?” Kylie mocked
“Aren’t you having a close relationship with Ethan?” Nadia asked coldly.
“Didn’t you say that Ethan doesn’t like me?”
“Kylie, I’m talking to you now.”
“It doesn’t sound like you’re talking. You only w

y word without remorse.
Nadia was so angry that her body was trembling. She her so helpless.
e didn’t know when this behavior started, but Kylie was the first to make
“Kylie, I was too anxious just now, so my tone was harsh. You do understand that your aunt is financially struggling. Usually, it’s Jarvis who helps her with money. But now that Jarvis suddenly lost his job, her family has become miserable. You can’t possibly let me be embarrassed in front of our relatives, right?” Nadia had no choice but to lower her ego. After all, her family was a bunch of nosy backstabbers and kept badmouthing each other, making Nadia feel restless and anxious.
“I’ll say it again, Jarvis losing his job is his own business. It has nothing to do with me. Besides, I have nothing going on with Ethan for a long time, so I have no right to interfere in Hayden Group’s matter. No matter how desperate you beg. I can’t do anything.
“Kylie!” Nadia’s anger flared up again. “Why is it so difficult for you to help others? Is it that difficult?”
I’ve made my reasons very clear, Kylie then added coldly, “However, you’re right. It’s not easy for me to lend a helping hand, especially to someone who made my life hell from the start. How dare you beg for my help.”
“I can’t believe this family has raised an ingrate like you!”
Your family never supported me in the first place!” Kylie retorted. “If I didn’t make use of my skills, I would have starved to death overseas!”

“You!” Nadia clearly could not win against Kylic.
Kylie was not in the mood to waste any second with Nadia. “We may be related. But clearly, we don’t have a mutual respect. Don’t pretend like I owe you the world. I won’t fall for your petty tricks.” After that, she hung up without any hesitation.
Kylie stood on the balcony and took a deep breath. In the end, there were still some emotional fluctuations in her heart. The damage caused by her family was fatal. There were some deep-rooted traumas that she did not know how long it would take for her to truly accept. The pain she felt at that moment was similar to the pain she had at 18 years old.
Kylie casually scrolled through his Instagram feeds, trying hard to adjust her mood. But suddenly, her fingers paused. She looked at the photos that Stella had just posted. [Belicy is so beautiful. I like everything here.]
The photos shown were taken on the Ferris wheel. Most of the photos were taken at night. But on the last slide, Kylie saw a pair of a man and woman’s hands tightly overlapping.
