89 Chapter 89: Why Are You Still Up? (1/2)
Leaning her head again his shoulders, Kylie spoke up, ”So, I've got an assistant.”
”Who?”
”Faith Cruz. I don't think you know her. She had been very famous before, but then suddenly disappeared for a period of time.”
Ethan slightly lowered his head and asked with a heavy tone, ”Is she reliable?”
”The battle has just begun, it's a test for me, and also for her!”
”How! What!? This is too risky!” Ethan sometimes struggled at the risks Kylie took being a man who liked order and control.
”Don't worry, I've got a strong patron, right? Uncle Ethan?” Kylie smirked. ”If there's anything unexpected that I have to face, I could always turn to you for help!”
A trace of displeasure appeared on Ethan's face, ”How dare you call me Uncle? Do I look like an Uncle to you?”
Kylie was immensely enjoying pissing Ethan off; the man was too easy! ”Of course not! Though I have to admit if there were more uncles like you in the world… I sure would not mind…” she trailed off.
”Don't even fucking finish that sentence!” Ethan growled as he captured her lips in a searing hot kiss.
That night, both Kylie and Ethan were relaxing in their bed, with him reading his documents as usual and Kylie browsing Instagram on her tablet. Even though the two were focused on their own activities, to an outsider, it would seem like they were very close and intimate. Kylie was snuggled up against Ethan's shoulders while Ethan would lovingly stroke Kylie's hair in between his reading.
There was an understood and unspoken understanding and love between Kylie and Ethan, something that was seldom seen between couples nowadays.

”Khloe?” Aiden asked confusedly. ”What are you doing here?”
