209 Chapter 209: Nothing To Worry About Me (1/2)

As soon as Ethan was gone, Tom leaned forward, slapped Kylie across the face, and called her a bitch. Before she could even think to retaliate, Ethan grabbed Tom and threw him to the ground. He went mad when he saw that Tom hurt his wife. Apparently, he hadn't gone as far as he'd said that he was going. Instead, he'd hovered just outside the door to see how things would play out when he was gone.

Ethan placed his shoe to Tom's neck and applied pressure. ”How dare you hurt my woman? Are you seeking for death? I can't let you hurt her, not even any other person,” he hissed.

Kylie turned to look at Ethan and asked him, ”What's wrong with people lately? How did I become the target for so many people's angst? I didn't do anything bad to anybody; why does it seem I did a terrible act?”

Tom was squirming and trying, without success, to get Ethan's shoe off of his neck. His face was red, and his breathing was shallow.

”I don't know,” Ethan replied. ”There are some people in this world, though, who just can't handle others' success. It makes them go crazy. They can't accept defeat nor accept any failure from their own actions. Would you like me to kill Tom? It would be easy; nothing really – just a little more pressure and its lights out. God knows he deserves it.”

”I almost want to say yes,” Kylie replied in an instance, ”but no. Let him up. He might be the villain of our story, but I don't want murder on my conscience. I can't let my man kill someone for me,”

Ethan felt sad for his wife. He knew why Tom acted this way, but he can't tell Kylie about it right now. He let go of Tom when Kylie stop him; however, he sent a resentful look to the man. Tom quickly get up, and before he leaves, he threw some words to Ethan. ”You will regret what you did, Ethan. Saving that woman who obviously changed you a lot,”

”Shut up! You don't know what you are talking about!” Ethan snapped at him.

Kylie held Ethan's arm and said, ”Honey, calm down, I am okay, nothing to worry about me,”

”I shouldn't have brought you to see Dora,” He pulled her and hugged her tightly.

Kylie didn't respond to him. She wrapped her arms around Ethan's waist.

One the other end, Khloe slowly opened her eyes and found herself in an empty room with nothing in it except the bed she was lying on. She got up and went to the door, turned the handle, and was frightened to discover that the door was locked. She cried out for someone to help, and a woman appeared almost instantly, with a clipboard in her hands.
