Loving A STRANGER Chapter 448
Advertisement
She was shocked when her husband's face appeared in front of her. She didn't notice when Ethan come behind her, without any sound.
"How did you came behind me?" Kylie whispered.
Ethan dared not to answer his wife or tell her that he had an extraordinary power to send him anywhere than the average human being had.
Ethan signaled her not to make any sounds with his eyes.
Kylie nodded, then pointed at Matthew with her finger.
Ethan looked over, and his eyes were full of despise. He pulled his lips, then carried Kylie in his arms before walking away.
"What happened?" Kylie asked him once she sat in the car. "What work have you arranged for him? He looks so abnormal."
The security fence of the Parker family's house slowly rose, and the Knight XV drove outside.
Ethan didn't open his mouth until the car was on the road. "Do you think he looks like that because he's worked hard?"
"Isn't it?" Kylie adjusted the safety belt. When she just placed her feet on the windshield, Ethan gave her a cold glance, and she sat well on the seat at once. "Matthew said he's exercising."
Ethan snorted with disdain and sped up.
The Knight XV was driving fast ahead, but it was very steady. Ethan also opened the warm wind, and Kylie soon fell asleep.
Her head was nodding while she was in her sleep.
Ethan noticed that by a side glance, then reached out his arm to let Kylie's head stay on his shoulder.
Kylie fell into a sound sleep after she found a comfortable and safe position.
She didn't open her eyes until she felt someone was rubbing her jaw.
"Are you awake?" Ethan's handsome face showed up in her sight.
Kylie stretched her arms and sat up. "Are we home?" She wiped her lips, which were wet. "Did I slobber?"
Ethan smiled. It was a silent affirmative answer.
Not only had Kylie slobbered, but she even had snored as well.
"You stay with Ethan every day, and you still slobber when you see him?" Dinah suddenly appeared from Ethan's back and beamed at Kylie.

"Dinah!" Kylie was wide awake now. She pulled her hand and asked in a hurry, "I met Stephen today, and he told me you're always absent these days. What are you up to now?"
"He just passed the set, and said hi to me." Kylie knocked her shoulder against Ethan's body.
Ethan squinted at her but didn't say a word.
Dinah wore an embarrassed smile. "Ethan, don't worry. Stephen is my man now, and I promise to keep a close eye on him."
"Let's go inside." Ethan didn't smile at all but turned to walk into the house.
Kylie exchanged a glance with Dinah, then they shrugged at the same time. "Ignore him, he's a jealous husband all the time," Kylie joked.
"That means Ethan cares about you." Dinah closed the car door and followed Kylie walking inside. "I've been absent from home for a couple of days, but Stephen has never asked why."
"It's not a bad thing to have freedom." Kylie felt envious of Dinah.
In the living hall, Lucy had already prepared two cups of coffee and warm milk for Kylie.
Kylie sat cross-legged on the sofa with a glass of warm milk in her hands and listened to the discussion between Ethan and Dinah.
It was quite professional, but Kylie still roughly understood it after listening for a long time. Ethan was asking Dinah whether she had found out the clown's real identity.
"I have a bold suspicion," Dinah said and compressed her lips. "When Michael died, someone had injected adrenaline into his body. Its amount wasn't big, but it was deadly enough. I think he must have been involved in the medical industry since he's adept at it."
"In addition, I've checked the surveillance videos of that night too. The man's build looks quite similar to the clown. The clown could be the man who killed Michael in prison."
"Is the clown the mastermind behind the scene?" Kylie interrupted them.
Dinah looked at her with a serious face. "We're not sure, but it's possible."

Ethan looked downwards, and it seemed he was thinking about something.
Seeing him remaining silent, Dinah didn't dare make any sounds. Kylie, instead, drank the milk loudly to attract Ethan's sight.
After a long while, Ethan raised his head with a pair of cold eyes. "Have you determined the compositions of the drug yet?"
"Clown canceled all the deals after we failed to kill him last time. We haven't got the sample yet." Dinah felt a little guilty. If she hadn't been so impulsive, probably they had already caught Clown.
"I can give you a clue." Ethan sipped his coffee, and his eyes looked as quiet as a pond in the late night. "Matthew Parker."
"What?" Kylie spouted milk out of her mouth in shock.
Ethan drew some tissues out and wiped Kylie's lips clean. "Drink it slow," his voice was gentle.
"Do you mean Matthew is on the drug so that he looks abnormal?" Kylie was still in shock.
"What happened to Matthew?" Dinah moved forward for more details.
However, Ethan didn't answer her question but stared at Kylie. "Why do you think he has become like that?"
"I..." Kylie didn't know what to say.
"Ethan, couldn't you answer my question at first?" Dinah reached out her hand to the middle of their eyes.
Normally, Dinah didn't dare behave like that before Ethan's face, but it was about Clown this time.
They had chased the drug dealer for over a dozen years, and she ached to find out the cruel mastermind behind the case.
Ethan finally turned to look at her. "Matthew has lost a lot of weight within a short time, and he has frequent large cash outflows, especially these days, but I don't think he's on traditional drugs."
Hearing that, Dinah clenched her fists. "I'll go investigate it right now, and I'll contact you once I get any new information." Dinah ran outside at once, and they soon heard the loud sound of a Harley motor moving fast away.
The living hall fell into silence in an instant, and Kylie sensed Ethan was checking her with his eyes.
She knew what Ethan wanted to say, so she slowly put the glass down on the coffee table, then ran upstairs all of a sudden.
"I'm sleepy, and I'll go to bed before you!" Kylie shouted when she slammed the door.
Ethan didn't follow her up but took out a cigarette which he had quit for a long time from the handrail cabinet. In the night, Ethan was deep in thought, and the cigarette was burning in his fingers.
This tough man felt a little excited with anticipation but was also upset.
If he had still been in the army, he could have joined Dinah to investigate this case and chase the criminals.
However, he was a successful businessman now, and he also had a happy family. He wasn't alone anymore but was expecting his babies with his beloved woman. He was also worried about his big secret that he hadn't mentioned to his wife. He's an immortal, and Stephen knew his secret. He pretended that he needed Stephen's help to retain his human form, but the truth was he can retain his human form anytime as he was a hybrid alpha-vampire. Stephen thought the medicine he formulated had helped Ethan all this time.
And considering Kylie as a famous actress, people paid much attention to her. He couldn't ruin Kylie's career. All he needed to do now was to take better care of his woman.
Several thoughts run through his head, and with a blink of an eye, he sped up to the dark corner of the garden area and shifted himself into his natural form. He's using his mental telepathy to check Stephen's activities, and when he was satisfied with what he saw, he shifted back then went to their bedroom. He took a shower before he lay on the bed.
Kylie pressed her soft, fragrant body on him without delay. "Did you smoke?"
