Chapter 228
The sudden change in conversation stunned Kylie.
“Can’t you bear to leave?” Gideon teased.
“It’s not that. I just don’t want to trouble myself,” Kylie said bluntly. “It’s not convenient for me to go down
now.”
“I’m just joking. Even if I want to pick you up now, I might not be able to take you away. Besides, I don’t know where you are. I don’t think Ethan will let me know where he took you. I just want to tell you that Ethan has indeed protected you very well. You can rest at his place in peace and rest for a while.”
Hearing Gideon’s words, Kylie could not describe her feelings.
At this moment, a call suddenly came in. “Let’s not talk about it anymore. Stella has called Ethan.”
“Ask Ethan to buy you a phone and give you your original number. It’ll be easier to contact you,” Gideon reminded.
“I know.”
After hanging up the phone.
“Ethan!” Kylie faced the door.
The door was opened.
Ethan had been waiting for her at the door.
But he wasn’t listening to the call between her and Gideon.
“Stella called you,” Kylie said.
Kylie handed the phone to Ethan.
Ethan glanced at her, took it, and left again.
A few minutes later, he returned.
Kylie did not ask why Stella was calling him, and Ethan did not volunteer anything.
The two of them chose to avoid talking about this person.
“Can I trouble you to buy me a phone and make up for my phone number?” Kylie asked.
“Someone will send it over later.”
“Thank you.”
“Do you want to sleep a little longer?”

“Okay.”

Kylie lay down again and Ethan walked out.
After they left, the room became quiet.
Actually, she couldn’t sleep.
How could she sleep after sleeping for three days?
She just wanted some peace and quiet.
She quietly thought about what she should do next.
In Ethan’s private residence in Toville, Kylie stayed for another three days.
She could go to the fields in three days.
With a walking stick, she could barely take a few steps.
When she walked out of the room that Ethan had arranged for her, she realized that this house was actually so big.
There was a five-story villa with a 500-square-meter garden and an open-air swimming pool.
Because she didn’t walk out, she didn’t know what the outside of the villa looked like, let alone where exactly Toville was.
She only felt that it was very quiet.
Kylie sat on a chair in the back garden and basked in the winter sun. Then, she looked at her phone.
After a week, the news of the Garner family charity banquet was still very popular.
Charity banquets were a hot topic to begin with. It was the same every time in the
past. This
because of the announcement of the wedding dates of Ethan and Stella, and her entanglement with Gideon, the popularity of the news continued.
year,
Kylie watched in boredom.
Looking at the media’s support for Ethan and Stella..
Then, she looked at the speculations about her and Gideon.
That meant that she and Gideon were already a couple, but it had not been officially announced yet.
Kylie clicked on it and read the comments of the netizens.
[Kylie and Gideon are actually a couple? As expected, outstanding people play with outstanding people.]
[A rising star in the political world, a well-known designer, and a dark horse in the business world. They

are a perfect matchl
Am I the only one who thinks that Kylie and Gideon are better than Ethan and Stella?)
Compared to Kylie, Perla’s relationship doesn’t seem to be very smooth. On the charity night, she was photographed with an old man… Is it true?]
Kylie frowned slightly when she saw this comment.
Perla and an old man?
She exited her news and went to search. There was indeed news about Perla on a less popular news. In the photo, the man left with Perla holding hands seemed to be the man who bid for Perla’s dance that night.
Was Perla depraved?
Of course, Kylie was not too emotional.
After all, it was a matter of course.
Stella could invest so much in Perla. It was impossible for Perla to reap the benefits for free.
From the moment she accepted Stella’s grace, her nightmare followed!
She did not sympathize.
Kylie put down her phone.
The sudden appearance of a black shadow above her head and the familiar smell beside her made her very clear who it was.
Ethan had been with her for the past few days.
He lived next door to her.
He had clearly just announced the wedding date, but he had not been by his fiancée’s side.
Kylie really did not know how twisted Stella’s heart was now.
“It’s time to eat, Ethan said to her gently.
The two of them had been getting along quite well for the past few days.
There was no hostility or deep feelings.
They were more like two ordinary friends. Neither of them had crossed the line.
Kylie followed Ethan into the hall and ate lunch with him.
The phone rang.
It rang over and over again.

“Go answer the phone, Kylie reminded.
It was clearly opened by Stella.
Stella called him every day.
Coincidentally, it was at the time of the meal every time.
Stella was still smart. She knew very well that if Kylie lived with Ethan, they would definitely eat together. Therefore, Kylie would know if she called at mealtime.
She actually wanted to tell Stella that there was no need to put in so much effort.
The matter between them really wouldn’t affect her much.
Ethan still got up to answer the call.
He walked not far away and lowered his voice.
Kylie was actually not interested in listening to their conversation.
It was nothing more than a greeting between couples.
After the call, Ethan was silent for a while before saying, “I’ll be going out in the afternoon. I won’t be back for dinner tonight.”
“Okay.”
“I’ll make you dinner in advance.”
“No need.” Kylie refused.
She knew that Ethan had been cooking for the pas few days.
Morning, noon, and night. He was very attentive.
“Your cooking isn’t particularly delicious either,” Kylie said bluntly.
Ethan looked at her.
“I want to change the taste,” Kylie said calmly. “Are there no other chefs in the villa?”
“Yes,” Ethan said.
Then, he added, “I understand.”
The two of them fell silent again.
Kylie could feel Ethan’s disappointment.
Actually, it wasn’t that she wasn’t touched by Ethan’s kindness. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to be grateful.
However, their current identities were very awkward.
Chapter 228
In the afternoon, Ethan left.
When she left, he was dressed very formally. He was probably going to a very formal banquet.
Without Ethan, Kylie was eating alone at the dinner table at night.
She was eating food that was not made by Ethan.
It wasn’t that it didn’t taste good.
It was just that… something was missing.
Therefore, one really could not get used to something. If one got too used to something, one would develop dependence.
She ate slowly.
The phone screen suddenly lit up. Then, she saw Stella’s WhatsApp message on the screen.
There were no words, just a photo of Ethan leaning against her.
She leaned on Ethan’s shoulder, looking cute and sweet.
