Chapter 67
“I didn’t have the ability to resist when I was young. Now that I’ve grown up, I won’t be bullied so easily, Kylie said calmly.
She was actually comforting Ethan that she could protect herself. She didn’t know why she wanted to comfort him.
Perhaps she felt that he was indeed worried about her. And there were not many people in this world who were really still worried about her.
“Does it hurt?” Ethan suddenly asked. He looked at her slightly swollen face. He wondered how much strength the other party used to make it so swollen.
Kylie was stunned for a moment before shaking her head.
For her, it didn’t hurt. Compared to what she had experienced when she was young, this was really nothing.
When she was young, she would still be sad. Now, she realized that the Stafford family was not worth her
tears.
Ethan pursed his thin lips tightly. He exuded a cold aura, which was a little scary.
Of course. Kylie wasn’t afraid of him. Because she knew why he was angry.
“I want to eat an apple,” Kylie suddenly said, deliberately diverting his attention.
Ethan’s eyes flickered.
“The apple you peeled last time was very sweet,” Kylie added.
Ethan’s cold aura seemed to have disappeared a little. He looked at the fruit plate on the coffee table, got up, picked up an apple and fruit knife, and started peeling it quietly. He had a pair of clean hands with long, well–defined fingers.
Kylie looked away. She admitted that she was indeed not brave enough now.
She had experienced too many things and did not dare to take the risk. Perhaps she would really miss someone. But in comparison, she would rather never have him.
Soon, a plate of apple slices was placed in front of Kylie.
“Thank you.” Kylie took it and ate slowly.
She really didn’t like fruits in the past, but now she felt that apples tasted good. They had a sweet and sour taste and were crisp and refreshing.
“Is it good?” Ethan asked.
“Delicious.”

“Let me try it.” Ethan replied.

“Alright. Kylie nodded. Coincidentally, she had already forked a piece of apple onto the fork and was about to put it into her mouth. She instinctively handed it to Ethan.
Just as Ethan was about to eat, Kylie suddenly stopped. She thought it was inappropriate for the two of them to use the same fork.
However, at that moment, her wrist was suddenly held. Kylie was stunned.
Ethan directly put the piece of apple in her hand into his mouth.
Kylie pursed her lips. It was obvious that her heart was racing, but she was deliberately restraining herself.
“Yes. It’s very sweet, Ethan commented. He looked very calm. And he seemed not to notice that Kylie’s body suddenly stiffened.
“When can you be discharged?” Ethan asked.
“Anytime, but I want to lie down for two more days. Anyway, I don’t need to spend my own money.” Kylie smiled.
You can indeed take a break. Ethan knew that Kylie had been extremely busy a while ago. Because she was too busy, he restrained himself from disturbing her.
“But my birthday is the day after tomorrow…”
“I will be discharged the day after tomorrow,” Kylie said with certainty. “Your celebration will be at night, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Okay, I’ll be there on time.”
“Alright, Ethan replied. Then, he added, “I’ll wait for you.” He was afraid that Kylie would think that he was not sincere enough.
Kylie smiled. Ethan looked at Kylie’s smile and the corners of his mouth curled up.
“I’m fine. I want to sleep for a while. Do you want to leave first?” Kylie asked. Although she didn’t dislike Ethan, she was used to being alone.
“Go to sleep. I’ll be by your side,” Ethan replied naturally.
Hearing that, Kylie stared at him.
Ethan said, “The last time I was hospitalized, you often came to take care of me. I was just returning the
favor.
“Last time you were hospitalized because of me, Kylie replied.
“I’ve always been a person who repays kindness with kindness. You’re welcome, Miss Stafford,” Ethan said. firmly.

kylie pursed her lips. She felt that if she rejected him now, it would hurt Ethan’s heart
She turned her back to Ethan and closed her eyes to sleep. For a long time, athan had been sitting beside her bed and looking at her petite body
kylie was really very petite But she was so strong that it made one’s heart ache.
Khan’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He thought inwardly. If only I had pulled her back then, stopped her when she was running away recklessly, maybe she wouldn’t have stopped trusting anyone!
Kylie did not expect that she had really fallen asleep. Originally, she was just looking for an excuse to chase Eihan away. Unexpectedly, she really fell asleep while lying down with her eyes closed.
She didn’t feel very secure. And it was rare for her to fall asleep beside someone she wasn’t familiar with.
Her body moved slightly. Then she saw Ethan sleeping on the sofa..
The sofa was not big. As Ethan was sleeping on it, his tall figure looked cramped and uncomfortable.
Kylie thought of the last time Ethan was hospitalized. Their roles seemed to have suddenly switched.
She got up, picked up the quilt on the bed, and draped it over him as gently as she could. However, the moment she approached him. Ethan opened his eyes. He was stunned in surprise.
“I’m sorry. I… Ali!” Kylie suddenly screamed.
Ethan suddenly grabbed her arm and pushed her into his arms. Before Kylie could react, Ethan flipped over and pressed Kylie under him. The two of them looked at each other in a rather suggestive position.
Kylie watched as Ethan suddenly lowered his head and inched closer to her. Kylie’s heart was racing. Her body instinctively resisted, prompting her to squirm and attempt to pull away.
However, when she looked into Ethan’s bright eyes, she hesitated for a second. She bit her lips and watched helplessly as Ethan got closer and closer to her. The distance between them grew smaller and smaller.
At the last moment, Kylie suddenly closed her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly as if she was trying her best to accept something. Her tense nerves instantly relaxed.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw Ethan’s short black hair. He pressed himself against, her, almost suffocating her.
Kylie began to wonder if Ethan was not awake at all. What he did just now was just sleepwalking.
At this moment, he was on top of her, breathing evenly. She felt his hot lips move by her ear. She did not know if he had spoken or not. Because she was deaf in her right ear and she didn’t hear anything. She only knew that she was being pressed down and had difficulty breathing.
It took a long time, maybe 10 minutes or 20 minutes. Kylie felt that she had really reached her limit. She nudged Ethan. “Wake up.”
Ethan moved his body. And Kylie’s body tensed. It was hard to ignore the inappropriateness of a man waking up.

Ethan raised his head and looked at Kylie with sleepy eyes. He finally realized that she was lying under him. He asked with surprise in his eyes, “What did I do
Kylie thought inwardly, ‘Well. He still knows he did something, rather than me doing something Otherwise, no amount of explanation will clear things up
