383 Chapter 383: Human-Skin Mask (1/2)

Seeing she didn't feel well, Ethan caught her hand.

”Let's go to the hospital for a check-up.” He insisted.

”Don't panic. It's very common for a pregnant woman.” Kylie smoothed her hair and asked him all of a sudden, ”Is it real what you've told me about Dora?”

Ethan was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Kylie would ask that.

”What are you asking about?” he said in a deep voice.

Kylie smiled. ”The human-skin mask.”

In order to achieve a certain effect, an actor would put on a lot of fake skin on his or her face during shooting, but the audience couldn't find it out because of lights.

If someone was really wearing a human-skin mask in real life, it was highly possible that others would notice it.

Ethan stared at Kylie's eyes, then smiled. ”Are you doubting whether I'm real Ethan or not?”

Kylie moved her eyes away at once. ”Nonsense!”

The man moved to sit by Kylie's side, and his fingers run in her beautiful hair. ”Even though you can't recognize my face, I bet you must know my skills very well. Come on, have a check!”

”Leave me alone!” Kylie laughed.

She now was sure this shameless man in front of her eyes must be Ethan.

”Why do you have that thought?” He hugged her up and let her sit on his legs, then fed her like she was his baby.

Kylie shook her head to avoid the spoon but was still forced to have half a bowl of the soup before she told him the reason.

”I understand.” Ethan wiped her mouth clean. ”A human-skin mask sounds ridiculous, but it has long been used in special arms.”

”Do you mean a spy?” Kylie asked. ”Almost. I'm not certain who is helping Dora now, but I'm sure he's very skillful at changing a person's face.” Ethan squinted. ”Don't act alone before we find Dora.”

”Sure.” Kylie leaned against Ethan's strong chest. Although her suspicion of him was removed, she still felt anxious.

Ethan grabbed her hand and lifted it up, looking at the transparent bracelet. ”Why don't you wear the ring I've sent you, but this worthless thing.”

”How come it's worthless!” Kylie drew her hand back at once. ”This is your mother's family heirloom!”

Ethan wore a gentle smile. ”Heirloom is just a gimmick.”

”Don't put it so directly. This is the spiritual sustenance of your mother,” Kylie said, then remembered something. ”Didn't you tell me your mother has a twin sister? I think I've seen this bracelet somewhere before.”

”You've seen it?” Ethan was annoyed in an instant. ”No matter who she is, I won't accept her.”

Kylie sighed. ”Mother's temper is so good. There is no reason that she couldn't get along with others. If there is really a conflict, a mother must be the victim.” Ethan snorted with anger and stopped talking about this topic.

This spacious presidential suite fell into the silence within a second.

”My mother was assaulted by a man and then had me in her belly.”

Hearing that, Kylie abruptly sat up, looking at Ethan.

”Do you mean...” She rounded her eyes in shock, and an idea dawned on her.

Ethan was silent for a while before he opened his mouth again. ”Yeah, my mother indeed is the victim.”

Kylie felt so sad.

Why? What has happened before?

Kylie couldn't figure it out, and Ethan began to tell her the heartbreaking story in a more detailed way, which she had already heard before.

In the end, she remembered where she had seen this bracelet last time.

It was her first meeting with Agnes. There was also a bracelet of this shape around her wrist, but its color was a little different.
