Chapter 539: Say That Again
Kylie raised her head and tried to kiss him, but Ethan pulled her away.
“Say that again,” Ethan stared at her.
“I wanted to find Stephen’s body because he died in such a messy situation. You, mother, and Dinah all need a clear explanation. We need to find his body for us to have a proper closure. Don’t give another meaning to my longing for him because this was only part of the guilt feelings I have over the past few months. Remember, he remains your twin brother and the uncle of our children. I am worried too that Dinah has disappeared without a trace. I knew she suffered a lot because she loved Stephen so much. And don’t be mad at me because I’ve confessed to you that I only love you, and I already accepted your identity immediately when I learned the truth. You have heard me tell you I am willing to become one of your kind and will adopt the normal life that hybrid had,” Kylie said. “If you’re unhappy about it, I’ll be unhappier than you.” The second she finished, Ethan kissed her.
He pressed his hand against the bed in order not to put much pressure on her body. “Honey, don’t worry about Dinah, she can handle herself, she’s an immortal too,” He answered, but Kylie remains silent.
He kissed her with great passion from her forehead down to her belly.
“Ethan,” Kylie called his name.
Ethan heavily breathed and kept kissing her belly. “Babies, did you hear that? I’m your mother’s love forever.”
Kylie was amused and felt like laughing. All of a sudden, she felt the cold, and a drop of tear rolled down from her belly.
“Ethan.” Kylie sat up without delay. She hugged his neck tight. “I’m sorry that I made you feel so insecure. I promise I’ll tell you everything and be honest with you. Can you…”
“I promise I won’t be jealous again.” Ethan held her hand and kissed her fingertips. “What do you want to do next?”
Kylie snorted with laughter. “I can’t now. Look at my belly.”
There was burning desire in Ethan’s eyes. “It’s fine. I’ll be very gentle.”
After that, he turned Kylie around and faced her back.

The next noon, William called Kylie and complained that she had left too early last night. He had to stay at the party to help her socialize with those guests, and he had a terrible hangover now.
“Well, what can I do to make it up to you?” Kylie asked, brushing her teeth.
“Send me a drawing of you,” William said.
He really wanted a drawing of Kylie, and it was also true that he had been drunk last night.
“A drawing?” Kylie turned to look at Ethan, who stood right by her side. “That drawing is your Uncle Ethan’s work. Do you need me to ask him for you?” She sounded threatening.
“It’s Uncle Ethan’s drawing?” William was surprised. “I was curious since you know how to draw. Um, I was just saying. Don’t mention that before Uncle Ethan’s face. He’s too busy to do that for me. Oh, I have to go now. Bye.”
Kylie laughed when William hung up in a hurry. “William likes your drawing.”
“Does he want it?” Ethan asked.
Kylie shook her head. “He didn’t dare ask for it.”
Time flew when people felt happy.
Kylie’s belly was already huge when the first season of I Can Do It was over, so she didn’t join it again.
Therefore, when the film version of I Can Do It was in theaters, Kylie insisted on watching it in a theater in-person to support it.
Ethan planned to book a whole theater to let Kylie enjoy it alone, but Kylie thought she couldn’t see the audience’s reaction in that case.
As a result of their discussion, Ethan booked the second floor of the theater, and only Kylie was on it.
She was able to see the reaction of the audience who sat on the first floor and enjoyed the film on the second floor at the same time.
She had been pregnant for over seven months till now and urinate often.
When the film was played a half, she stood up and went to the washroom.
“Let me go with you.” Ethan followed her standing up as well.
“It’s fine. There is only me in the washroom on the second floor.” Kylie moved at a slow pace under Ethan’s support.
“I can’t let you go there alone. What if you slip?” Ethan was willing to go to the ladies’ room along with her.
There was no one else on this floor, after all.
“I’m not an idiot.” Kylie pouted and did her best to support her big belly with her own waist.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
“You’re not.” Ethan protected her with his hands. “Tell me who almost slipped yesterday after stepping on a shoelace?”
“It wasn’t my fault. The shoelace loosened itself!” Kylie argued.
“Right, right, it was its fault,” Ethan said to comfort her.
His wife was pregnant now, and she had the final say. When he found Kylie could barely sleep well at night because of pregnancy, he felt regretful that he had made her pregnant.
Kylie stopped him at the door of the ladies’ room. “Wait outside.”
“There is no one else around,” Ethan said.
“No.,” Kylie insisted. She got inside alone, then closed the door.
Her legs were obviously thicker than before. She looked at her belly in the mirror after urinating. “How long will it take to lose so much weight?”
“Kylie, are you alright?” Ethan urged her.
“Yeah.” Kylie washed her hands but soon felt cold after her belly was pressed against the edge of the basin for a short while.
She rubbed her belly, walking out, and Ethan went ahead to support her at once. “What’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable in your belly?”
“Nope, my belly just touched the edge of the basin, and it feels a little cold.” Kylie rubbed and reached her stomach. “I want to eat popcorn.”
Ethan glanced around and found the box office at the entrance.
There weren’t more people on the second floor, so the two staff members were chatting with each other now.
“Wait here for me,” Ethan said.
Kylie nodded, then sat down on the bench near the washroom.
Ethan walked ahead and turned around the next second to check whether Kylie was fine. Kylie waved at him, and he turned to step ahead again.
Right when Ethan turned back, Kylie noticed a familiar figure flash by from the mirror of the washroom.
Stephen!
She was sure she was right.
Stephen met her eyes when he walked by the mirror! Although he was wearing an expressionless face, his eyes were still as gentle as always when he saw her.
At this moment, Kylie forgot she was a pregnant woman and abruptly stood up.
Seeing that, Stephen walked downstairs without hesitation.
Kylie moved too fast, and her belly tightened all of a sudden. She wanted to call Ethan but was afraid Stephen might escape again, so she decided to chase him up herself.
Stephen stepped away, alternating slow and fast pace. It seemed he was waiting for her on purpose.
Kylie couldn’t move fast, so she walked downstairs at a slow pace with one hand pressed against the wall.
She kept looking at Stephen through gaps in the handrails. Stephen almost reached the first floor and even turned to glance at her.
“Stephen, don’t go! I need to talk to you!” Kylie shouted at him, and her voice echoed in the stairs.
