Stephen wore a gentle smile. "Please call me, Star."
Kylie moved her eyes away and changed the topic. "Can I see Dinah now?"
The housekeeper showed up at the gate. He greeted Kylie with great respect. "Nice to see you again, Miss Finch."
"Where is Dinah? Tell her to come out now!" Kylie joked.
The housekeeper glanced at Stephen, then turned to walk in another direction. Kylie thought he left to inform Dinah, so she relaxed and sat on the sofa.
The furniture here was still in the same position, and this big soft sofa was Kylie's favorite piece.
She used to stay on this sofa with Ethan for a long time. He read his documents, and she stared at him.
It was a good old memory.
"I heard you left for Thailand to shoot a reality show." Stephen poured a glass of water for Kylie and put it on the coffee table.
Kylie wasn't alert to others but stayed quiet alert facing Stephen. She didn't touch the glass at all.
"Yeah, it'll be aired tomorrow." Kylie bumped her butt on the sofa. "Koh Samui is a beautiful place, and you can have a vacation with Dinah there when you're free."
"You can reject me, but there is no need to push me to another person." Stephen sat across her.
Kylie felt a little embarrassed. "I-I didn't."
Stephen, however, looked very serious. "My mother told me that you told her, Dinah is my love, and she's carrying my baby, so she accepted Dinah."
"I..." Kylie had to admit it now. "Yes, it's my idea, but Dinah really loves you!"
"If I have to accept her only because she loves me, how should you treat me? I love you more than she loves me," Stephen said. Kylie got more nervous.
It wasn't the right choice to come here. Probably Dinah wasn't here at all.
"Stephen, let it go. It's meaningless to bring it up now." Kylie wanted to leave, but a big palm pressed her shoulder and forced her to sit back.
"I can never let it go that I love you." Stephen's voice sounded sad and determined.
Kylie looked up at him. She felt scared facing Stephen now.
His black pupils seemed to be much smaller, while white eyeballs were bigger. He was breathing heavily, and her shoulder was painful.
"Stephen, you hurt me." Kylie tried to get rid of his hand but failed.
All of a sudden, Stephen moved a step forward and pressed Kylie against the back of the sofa.
His face almost pressed against Kylie's and his hot breath was around her neck.
"Kylie, do you know what I've been through these days?" His voice was hoarse. He said and pulled Kylie's hand to touch his unusually thin face. "If it hadn't been for you, I could be dead already."
Kylie stiffened, staring straight at Stephen in fear.
"Lovesickness." Stephen smiled but looked creepy. "Kylie, I miss you so much." The second he finished that sentence, he pulled Kylie's hand to the above of her head.
"No!" Kylie shouted.

Lucy told him Kylie stayed at the Parker family's old house last night.
Knowing that Ethan was relieved. No matter how violent his enemy was, Kylie was safe in his family's place.
He had a third of his coffee before Fannie called him. "Ethan, I can't get through to Kylie now."
"What happened?" Ethan frowned.
"Kylie told me Ms. Green wanted to have a private talk with her, so I left before her. I was worried, so I followed Ms. Green's car behind." Fannie sounded anxious. "I followed Ms. Green along the way to her home, but Kylie was absent. Now I can't get through to her."
"Did anything happen today?" Ethan stayed calm.
"Well..." Fannie then told Ethan everything that had happened at the set, but she didn't think of any valuable information.
"You told her what has happened to Dinah?" Ethan's voice was cold now.
"Yeah, and Kylie comforted me that Dinah will be fine..." Before Fannie could finish, Ethan hung up on her.
Fannie finally realized something must be wrong, and she called Nate without delay, but Nate's line was busy.
Half an hour later.
Ethan and Nate showed up at Garbo Palace No.1.
A middle-aged maid walked out to open the gate. "Hi, whom are you looking for?"
Nate pushed her away and strode into the house. "Tell Stephen the jerk to meet us right now!"
"Lord Stephen doesn't live here." The maid followed them behind, walking fast. "Mrs. Cecil, Mrs. Cecil!" she shouted to the inside.
Looking at the same house with the same decoration and furnishings, Ethan frowned again. He raised his head, and Agnes appeared in his sight on the second floor.
Agnes was silent for a while with a pair of dulled eyes, then asked them, "Do you have anything to talk to Stephen?"
The moment Agnes appeared, Ethan had a premonition. Stephen took action earlier than them.
Not only had he hypnotized those workers in the factory and made them victims, but he also hypnotized Agnes.
"We need to talk to Stephen about business," Ethan replied.
Nate was surprised to see Agnes. He glanced at her, then said to Ethan in a low voice, "Ethan, is she..."
It was the first time that Nate had seen Agnes, but he was a frequent visitor to the Parker family's old house, so he was very familiar with Barbara. Agnes looked almost the same as Barbara.
"She's Stephen's adoptive mother, Agnes," Ethan explained.
"She's also your aunt," Nate said, and Ethan rolled his eyes.
Hearing that they were going to talk to Stephen about business, Agnes walked downstairs and said to a maid, "Prepare coffee for our guests."
Three of them sat in the living room. Ethan looked at Agnes's blank face, then sneered, "If you can get through to Adolph, we can talk to him as well."
"Adolph?" Agnes repeated the name, then nodded. "Right."
However, she didn't call Adolph herself but told the maid to do that.
The maid seemed frightened. She trembled, walking to the phone and kept glancing at Ethan and Nate.
Nate couldn't help but think whether the maid was calling the police.
Although Agnes reacted slowly, she felt a little uncomfortable after being stared at by Ethan for a long time. She put on her air of a noble lady. "Have we met before?"
"What do you think, Mrs. Cecil?" Ethan asked.
Agnes raised her jaw with arrogance. "Our Cecil family is an influential rich family. It's very normal that you've seen me before, but don't you think it's impolite that you've been staring at me all the time?"
Ethan snorted with disdain. "Do you know Barbara?"
"Barbara?" Agnes repeated the name again.
Quick footsteps sounded at the door all of a sudden. "Do you know where Barbara is?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Stephen wore a gentle smile. "Please call me, Star."
