Chapter 13
“Ethan…”
“I’m sorry. I came back late,” Ethan said, his voice filled with genuine remorse as he stood in front of Kylie.
Kylie frowned, her mind filled with confusion and disbelief.
Was it an illusion?
Ethan at this moment seemed completely different from the usual reserved and distant man she knew. It was as if he had suddenly gained the emotions and desires that humans should have, and it left her feeling both intrigued and cautious.
“Did you come to the wrong house? Let me go…” Kylic squirmed, her voice trembling with a mix of fear and uncertainty.
She couldn’t fully comprehend what Ethan was saying or understand his sudden change in behavior.
“In the future, you have me,” Ethan seemed to not feel Kylie’s resistance and said. earnestly in her ear.
His words, spoken earnestly into her ear, carried a sense of determination and commitment. They sounded like a promise.
“Ethan… Ouch!” Kylie screamed.
Her body was suddenly hoisted up around the waist by Ethan.
Did he have a fetish for carrying others?
“Your feet, be careful,” Ethan whispered in her ear.
She thought he was quite drunk, yet at this moment, he even noticed her foot injury.
So, he was not drunk?
Once Kylie understood, she could not hold back her frantic resistance for even half a second.
Ethan was not drunk, but after drinking, he was a bit unsteady. It was fine for him to simply hold Kylie, but holding the restless Kylie was indeed a bit challenging.
“Don’t move.” Ethan’s voice carried some restraint and threat.
“Let me go… I can walk by myself, Kylie protested.
Chapter 13
She did not like being so intimate with others.
Didn’t he say that he was going to keep a clean image?
It was a lie!
Kylie didn’t care about that at the moment and struggled madly in Ethan’s arms.
Ethan finally managed to carry Kylie into her room. When he finally saw the bed, but due to Kylie’s vigorous resistance, Ethan stumbled.
“Ouch!” Kylie screamed again.
At that moment, she felt dizzy.
The man in front of her was really heavy, and she could not push him away. She could not escape from under him no matter how hard she tried..
“Miss Stafford, it’s better not to challenge my patience.” Ethan’s voice was low, with a hint of threat.
And there was still a gasp in his voice, indescribable repressed.
Kylie settled down immediately.
Among adults, some things were universally understood.
“Not moving?” Ethan looked at her in his arms.
Kylie’s face was fair, with a subtle hint of blush.
Kylie did not know whether to be happy or unhappy at this moment.
All the excuses for him to bully her seemed to have disappeared.
“Let me go,” Kylie protested.
“Let me… rest a bit,” Ethan said in a low voice.
Kylie understood in a second.
She bit her lip lightly, not daring to move.
Ethan took several deep breaths before finally getting up from Kylie.
At that moment, the air in the room seemed to carry a hint of intimacy.
The temperature also seemed to rise, and it lingered.
Chapter 13
Kylie turned over and found the remote control for the air conditioner under the bedside table, turning on the cold air.
It was still the early spring, so the weather was cold.
The sudden blast of cold air greeted Ethan..
Suddenly, Ethan sneezed.
At the same time…
Being already slightly intoxicated, he felt uncomfortable in his stomach due to the cold air.
He covered his mouth and asked Kylie, “Where’s the bathroom?”
Kylie pointed to the right.
Ethan rushed in and immediately heard the sound of vomiting from inside.
Kylie was slightly stunned.
Did she make Ethan throw up?
For a while…
Ethan did not come out and did not vomit.
Kylie quickly got out of bed.
A few days ago, she saw news about someone dying from alcohol intoxication. She didn’t want to be involved in a case like that.
However, Ethan actually took off his pants and went to the bathroom…
She had just reached the door when she heard the sound of water in the toilet, and Ethan turned his head to look at her…
Their eyes met.
Kylie’s eyes flickered, and she calmly closed the bathroom door.
Ethan lowered his head and looked at himself…
This didn’t attract her attention?
For quite a while.
Ethan walked out and explained, “I have urgent needs.”
Chapter 18
“Well,” Kylie responded, issuing a guest’s order, “Mr. Hayden, you may leave.”
Ethan opened his month as if to say something but ultimately chose silence and left.
As he left, he closed Kylie’s apartment door behind him.
Kylie didn’t see him off, keeping her fists clenched under the blanket for a long time. before relaxing.
She needed to wash her eyes, maybe for a month!
The next day.
Kylie, with a pair of eyes with dark circles, got up.
She was already prone to insomnia, and being disturbed by Ethan in the middle of the night made it even worse.
She opened the door.
Then her whole person was stunned.
She saw Ethan wearing her pink apron, busy in her kitchen.
Noticing she was up, he greeted her very casually, “Good morning.”
Wasn’t she still half–asleep?
She watched as Ethan placed the sumptuous breakfast on the table. “See if it suits your
taste.
“Why haven’t you left yet?” Kylie finally reacted, her tone carrying a touch of displeasure.
“I’m leaving now,” Ethan said very naturally.
He took off the apron, put on his slightly wrinkled suit, and left the kitchen.
Before leaving the room, he said, “Consider breakfast as an apology. Miss Stafford. Enjoy yourself.”
Then he left.
Kylie was left a bit fuming.
It had been a long time since she could not control her emotions because of someone.
Was Ethan too casual with her?
Chapter 13
In the end,
Kylie still ate the breakfast he made.
The reason was that wasting food was shameful.
After breakfast, Kylie left for work.
Today, she would go to the Moore Group.
It was time to settle the matters that needed to be settled.
Just as she left the neighborhood, a man walked towards her, respectfully saying, “Miss. Stafford, I am Mr. Hayden’s driver, John. Mr. Hayden asked me to give you a drive.”
Kylie was confused, and she did not know what Ethan was up to.
But she still got into Ethan’s private car.
When she got off, the driver handed her a business card and said, “This is my phone number. Miss Stafford, you can call me anytime. Mr. Hayden said that starting today, I am your full–time driver.”
Could she refuse?
Kylie still took the business card and then entered the Moore Group.
Her appearance instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the company.
She remained indifferent, using a crutch to enter the elevator.
As the elevator reached her floor, she walked into her office in full view of everyone.
She pushed open the office door and was momentarily stunned.
Kylic finally understood why everyone had been looking at her strangely.
Although the engagement banquet with Sergio was canceled due to the fire, her relationship with Salma had not been announced publicly. It turned out that Perla had taken her place!
At this moment, she saw Perla sitting in her office chair, and Sergio was also in her
office.
Sergio sat on her desk, and the two of them were being intimate.
Suddenly, the office door was pushed open, evidently interrupting their private
moment.
13.30 FII,
IVIDI
Chapter 13
Sergio’s face darkened, “Who let you in without knocking?”
Before Sergio could finish his sentence, upon seeing Kylie, his expression noticeably changed.
Perla
was even more panicked, hiding behind Sergio.
She looked like a victim, as if afraid that Kylie would come forward and hit her.
She was truly skilled at acting.
