474 Chapter 474: A Souvenir (1/2)
Stephen had left his work behind as he wanted. He even made an excuse to turn the invitation down.
Agnes didn't care about the meal but wanted to figure out whether the idea in her mind was true.
”Stephen, why did you reject their invitation?” Agnes complained.
Stephen put Kylie's blood sample away. ”Didn't you say I shouldn't have left my work behind?”
”But...” Agnes compressed her lips. She thought she could still catch up with a couple of Ethan and Kylie, so she said, ”Fine, I gotta go now.”
However, the second she turned around, Stephen stopped her. ”Mother, please wait a second. I have something to ask you.”

In the Knight XV.
Once Kylie fastened her safety belt, she sensed Ethan was staring at her face all the time.
”What? Am I prettier?” She played cutely but was still very nervous.
”Stop pretending.” Ethan held her hand in his big palm. ”Tell me.”
Kylie thought for a while. ”Tell you what? Me and Stephen? I did that just...”
”You know what I'm asking.” Ethan interrupted her.
Kylie, instead, remained silent. She was gambling that Ethan had found nothing.
Ethan held her hand, then gradually caught her slim wrist and played the bracelet with one finger.
”It's gorgeous,” he said.
”O-Of course, it's your mother's gift.” The smile froze on Kylie's face.
Ethan pulled his lips. ”I meant the one on Agnes's wrist.” Kylie held her breath.
She totally forgot the fact that Agnes and Ethan's mother shared the same given name.
Had Ethan found out something unusual a long time ago?
Kylie lost control of her expressions on her face.
”Ethan, please listen to me...” Kylie turned her hand to hold his, but he threw her hand away.
She licked her lips and explained. ”Agnes's bracelet is very beautiful, but...”
At this moment, Ethan's eyes were full of hatred. He looked like a devil from hell now. And she suddenly caught Ethan's eyes turn gold. Or was she just imagining something? But she won't be mistaken, as her gaze fell to Ethan, she saw a moment ago that his eyes changed but now when she stared at him, only hatred was found.
”Is she Agnes Morgan?” Ethan clenched his teeth in anger.
”Ethan!” Kylie unfastened her safety belt at once when Ethan got off the car and walked back. ”Please listen to me.”
Ethan didn't stop at all and pressed the button of the elevator.
”I did know a little before, but it doesn't mean I didn't want to tell you...” The door of the elevator opened, and Kylie followed Ethan walking in it. ”I just wanted to find the right time to tell you.”
”Does Stephen know it as well?” Ethan said in a cold tone when the door closed.
”No.” Kylie shook her head. ”Well, I have no idea whether he knows or not.”
The elevator was about to arrive on the floor. Kylie pulled Ethan's hand with anxiety. ”Are you going to question her or punch her for your mother?”
”Do you expect me to pretend that nothing has happened?” Ethan threw her hand away the second time and walked out without hesitation when the door opened.
Seeing his proud, cold back, Kylie had a strong, strange feeling of worries.
