337 Chapter 337: What Are They Scheming? (1/2)

She loved meatball most, but now felt it was so disgusting.

”Kylie?” Stephen laid his palm on her shoulder.

Kylie gave him a faint smile. ”Don't worry. I just don't have an appetite after the accident.”

She seemed relaxed, but Stephen looked serious. ”If you feel anywhere uncomfortable, you must let me know.”

”Alright, alright, Doctor Cecil,” Kylie smiled, then forced herself to drink some soup. ”I need to lie down for a while.”

However, she couldn't fall asleep at all. After waiting for two hours, she finally received Lucas's call.

”Kylie, I've talked with Director Miller, and he said you could finish your part as long as your body can afford it.”

”Very well. I didn't attend the recording of the reality show last time, and I lost much publicity,” Kylie said, and she heard Lucas snorting on the phone.

”I thought you really retreat to be a B-list actress as President Laurence said.”

”I'm only dealing with some things for the time being and won't give up my favorite career.”

Kylie hung up and heard footsteps coming to her room.

Somehow, she put her phone under her pillow, then closed her eyes, pretending she was asleep.

Before long, someone pushed the room door open, and Stephen's voice sounded. ”Kylie, are you asleep?”

Kylie lay still in silence.

She heard Stephen walk near, then stopped before her, and her heartbeat fast.

He was a doctor and should be able to easily distinguish between deep sleep and disguised sleep.

Therefore, Kylie did her best to relax, even didn't dare move her eyeballs.

There was a faint smell of disinfectant water on the tip of her nose. He must be close to her.

Was he observing me? Kylie thought to herself.

Kylie's fingers were cold already, and her body was even stiff. Just when she was about to give up, she felt the blanket on her body moved a little.

Stephen gently adjusted the blanket for her, then turned around, walking outside.

When she heard the sound of closing the door again, Kylie opened her eyes. She moved her shoulders and fingers and listened carefully to the movement at the outside of the door.

Stephen should be going to the study now.

There must be something he didn't want Kylie to know, or he wouldn't come to check her first.

Kylie slid out of bed then. When she just was about to open the door, she heard another footstep passing by the door. It was the housekeeper.

What are they scheming?

The study was next door to Kylie's bedroom, but the room was very soundproof, so she couldn't hear what they were talking about.

Without a better idea, Kylie had to venture out. When she just walked to the door of the study, she heard a crisp voice.

Stephen must have slapped the housekeeper.

He asked coldly, ”What did you do to Kylie?”

”Really?” Stephen snorted in anger. ”You replaced my medicine.”

The housekeeper remained silent, which meant Stephen was right.

Then, Kylie heard the sound of fall accompanied by the sound of porcelain cracking, and then Stephen's roar. ”Do you know that medicine will kill Kylie!”

Kylie had never heard Stephen being so furious and subconsciously covered her mouth.

Did it have anything to do with the glass of milk that she felt disgusted and had nosebleeds often recently?

She put her ear on the door, trying to hear what was going on inside.

The housekeeper's voice sounded. ”Didn't you say the medicine just makes her feel tired, so it's easier to control her mind?”
