Loving A STRANGER Chapter 371

Did she want to explain it to Ethan in person?
Sally noticed Kylie looking to Ethan, then wore a knowing smile. "Please call me once the doctor is ready. I need to use the ladies' room now."
"Sure."
When Sally was gone, Kylie moved near to Ethan, covered by dim light.
She saw Lauren stopped at a place not far behind Ethan but didn't move nearer.
Lauren sat there with her back facing Kylie, so Kylie couldn't see her face. It was so strange.
"Lauren!" Kylie patted her shoulder. "What are you looking at?"
"Ah!" Lauren almost exclaimed. When she turned around and saw Kylie, her eyes were full of strong hatred again, which confused Kylie.
Within a second, Lauren put on a smile. "I thought the person who sits next to Lord Ethan is you."
Kylie smiled. "Do you have something to talk to me?"
"Nothing special..." Lauren escaped Kylie's eyes.
"Don't worry. I've already discussed it with Lord Ethan, and he agreed to keep you in the entertainment industry."
"In fact, nobody wants to delete your part from Dangerous World, but you were absent for a few days. We only deleted some of your parts for the sake of the film," Kylie said, staring straight at her eyes. "I hope you don't mind."
The smile on Lauren's face was getting more embarrassed. "Of course not. I should thank you instead of for what you've done for me."
"You're welcome. Let's sit there together!" Kylie invited Lauren to sit with her.
In order not to arouse gossip, Kylie chose to sit in the row behind Ethan, while Lauren sat where she could see Ethan's profile.
When it was completely dark in the hall, the beginning of the movie was played on the big screen.

Under the flickering light, Kylie looked to Lauren several times and found that she was staring at Ethan all the time.
Also, her eyes were so tender, like Ethan was her lost love.
Does Lauren admire Ethan too?
"Lauren, actually, you're a good actress." Kylie talked to her on purpose, trying to find some clues.
Lauren was struck dumb for a second, then gave a glance at the big screen before she looked to Kylie. "Well, I think you're a talented actress. I almost cried when I watched the plot just then."
Kylie never doubted her acting skills, but the event happening in the film just then wasn't the most touching part.
As an experienced actress, it was a little exaggerated for Lauren to say that.
Probably Lauren wanted to thank her by flattering her.
When they turned to look at the big screen, Ethan, all of a sudden, looked in the direction, because he just saw Kylie sitting with her.
However, when he just moved his head, he caught Lauren's eyes. Lauren escaped his sight in a panic at once.
Ethan frowned a little.
When Kylie had told him Lauren had been missing last night, he was strongly suspected that it had something to do with Dora and her younger brother.
Why did Lauren suddenly appear today?
He glanced around, then noticed Kylie, who was sitting behind him.
Seeing him looking at her, Kylie greeted him with a smile. "Nice to see you, Chairman Parker."
Ethan compressed his lips, but didn't say a word, then looked to Lauren again, who was pretending that she was focusing on the film.
"Chairman Parker, didn't you tell me Lauren's good person so that she ran into the fire to help me out last time?" Kylie approached Ethan. Saying that she pulled Lauren's arm. "Lauren came this time to thank you in person."

Lauren wore a weird face looking at Kylie, then turned to Ethan. "Chairman Parker, been a while."
Hearing her voice, a fact dawned on Ethan.
It seemed Lauren realized something, too, so she cleared her throat and explained with a smile. "I'm sorry. My throat is acting up."
Ethan didn't say anything wearing a cold face, then turned to watch the film.
Kylie quietly reached out her leg to touch Ethan's. He sat with her legs placed backward, and let Kylie leave countless footprints on his pants.
When the film was over, many people wept because of the sorrowful ending.
Kylie turned to look at Lauren at this moment.
If Lauren almost cried just then, she must burst into tears now. However, to Kylie's surprise, Lauren didn't show any hint of sadness, but seemed quite pleased, like she had successful revenge.
To be honest, Kylie wasn't sure what kind of person Lauren was. Was she a hypocrite?
When Kylie was thinking about it, Lauren suddenly stood up. "Sorry, I need to use the ladies' room."
Kylie didn't stop her but approached Ethan's ear when she left. "I think Lauren is so strange today."
Ethan snorted, "You're not dumb."
When he had been on the stage just then, he had said that he would be kicked out if he said anything bad about his wife, but now he laughed at his wife!
Kylie pursed her lips. "Do you have any news about Dora?"
"Yes." Ethan looked forward and said in a quiet voice. "Someone replaced her."
"Then, Lauren..." An idea dawned on Kylie.
Did Lauren replace Dora?
"How is it possible!" Kylie couldn't accept it. "Even if she did plastic surgery, it takes days for her to recover. Doesn't it cost too much that she did that just to escape?"
"So." Ethan turned to look at her. "She's just wearing a human-skin mask."
At the same time, Lauren just walked to the door of the ladies' room and encountered the assistant director who just walked out of the men's room.
When the assistant director saw Lauren, he rounded his eyes in shock. "Lauren! Why didn't you tell me you left to work abroad? Kylie and I are worried about you!" Saying that he reached out his hand to touch her.
"F*ck off!" Lauren snapped at him and got rid of his hand, walking into the ladies' room.
"Lauren, what happened?" The assistant director grabbed her shoulder. "You have no idea how worried I am about you."
Although he had no intention to marry Lauren, he had to admit that he was quite satisfied with Lauren's skills in bed.
He missed her so much now.
However, Lauren refused him to touch her now. The assistant director was a little anxious because he had helped Lauren a lot to chase her career in the entertainment industry. How could she dump him right now?
It was impossible.
The assistant director tried to pull Lauren aside by force, but someone knocked him from behind all of a sudden.
