Loving A STRANGER Chapter 358
Advertisement
"It's a gift for my grandson!" Old Mr. Parker refused to admit that Kylie was already his daughter-in-law.
Old Mrs. Parker lightly pushed Ethan's shoulder and said with a smile, "Shouldn't you thank your father?"
Ethan had mixed emotions and remained silent for a while before he stood up. "I'll tell her to thank you in person."
He turned around, walking out, and heard the noise of crying and argument at the downstairs all of a sudden.
Old Mrs. Parker followed Ethan stepping downstairs at once, and the woman who was arguing loudly in the living hall was exactly Matthew's wife, Taylor.
Once Taylor saw Ethan, she seemed angrier.
"Very well, you live a good harmonious life here, and my family is almost ruined!"
Old Mrs. Parker criticized her in a low voice. "Are you insane? Isn't Aiden already put in jail for Matthew? I've handled it all well, and he'll be taken good care of in prison. Nobody will bully him."
Taylor snorted. "I wish Matthew had been put in jail, instead of Aiden!"
She then glared at Ethan. "It was all because of you! Once you come back, my family will never live a peaceful life. Why do you have to punish Aiden like that just for a bitch?"
"She's Mrs. Parker," Ethan said in a deep voice and seemed utterly displeased.
Taylor had been afraid of Ethan before because she didn't want him to ruin Matthew's career. As long as Matthew could make a lot of money, she could continue to live her luxurious life.
However, everything was different now.
Ever since the dirty secret that Khloe had been Matthew's mistress had been exposed, Matthew didn't bother to hide his affairs with all kinds of women anymore. Sometimes, he even brought the other woman back home to have fun.

Those women were also arrogant and despised Taylor, like she was just an abandoned wife. Taylor certainly was mad, but Matthew directly ignored her.
Her son was in jail now, so Taylor was helpless.
During this time, Matthew hadn't come home for many days, and he proposed to divorce her the moment he came back.
Therefore, Taylor came to the Parker family's old house for help.
If Matthew really abandoned her, she would have nothing left.
Old Mrs. Parker understood Taylor was in a hard situation and signed with a resigned look.
"Taylor, you married into our family, and you're also Ethan's sister-in-law after all. Don't spread the embarrassing news abroad. It won't do you any good."
Don't spread the embarrassing news abroad?
Taylor didn't know what to say, because she was already a joke now.
"Old Mrs. Parker, Matthew is going to divorce me, and I can barely support myself. Probably I'll die of starvation," Taylor sneered.
Before old Mrs. Parker could say a word, Ethan opened his mouth. "You don't want to die from hunger? Easy, you can stay here from now on."
Taylor couldn't believe her ears. "What? I can stay here?"
The Parker family's old house was far better than her own place. In addition, she could also enjoy the service of many domestic servants. Although she wouldn't have much allowance, she could show it off that she was the only daughter-in-law who was accepted by the Parker family.
In that case, nobody would dare despise her again.
There were plenty of people who wanted to fawn on the Parker family, and she probably could gain some benefits from that.
"Really?" Taylor asked Ethan again with her eyes full of the obvious excitement.
Ethan slightly nodded, but he still seemed displeased. "You'll be fully responsible for taking care of my mother."

Taylor's smiled froze on her face. It turned out she must be a servant here.
She was Matthew's wife, not a domestic servant!
Nevertheless, Taylor thought it wasn't a bad idea, actually. If she could stay by old Mrs. Parker's side, she could keep a distance away from Matthew, and Matthew wouldn't dare come here to divorce her.
It was the best way she could think of to solve her problems.
Moreover, it wouldn't be tiring to take care of old Mrs. Parker, and it was also reasonable to look after her mother-in-law anyway.
After the struggle against unwillingness, Taylor agreed at the end. "Well, I think I'll stay here tonight."
When Kylie heard it later, she couldn't help but think Ethan and her connection with each other so well.
Ethan gave Taylor a cold glance, then walked outside.
"Why don't you stay here too?" old Mrs. Parker pulled Ethan back. "You seldom come home, and we can share dinner together."
Taylor helped old Mrs. Parker persuades him. "Yes, stay, please! I'll go to the kitchen to have a check." After that, she walked to the kitchen with a broad smile on the face at once.
Ethan knew he couldn't leave, so he called Dinah. Dinah told him Kylie was still at the film set, and everything was normal.

The next day.
To falsify the illusion of pregnancy, Kylie took some time to accompany Dinah to visit the baby shop and went shopping for herself.
"You must wear flat shoes now," Kylie said, then handed a pair of white flat shoes to her.
"It's very strange to dress like that." Dinah looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a loose sweater now. If she put on this pair of shoes again, she would be like an old nanny.
"Put it on!" Kylie said. However, a middle-aged woman's voice sounded at this moment from her back all of a sudden. "Pack the shoes up."
Kylie was surprised, then turned around. It was Agnes! And two bodyguards were standing behind her.
Agnes smiled, looking at Kylie. "Thank you for guiding me here."
"I didn't!" Kylie argued and grabbed Dinah's hand. "Trust me. I didn't guide her here." Dinah soon understood what was going on.
She then acted at once and got rid of Kylie's hand. "How could you do that to me!"
"No, I didn't. Please, I can explain..."
Agnes moved a step forward and stopped Kylie from saying another word. "Well, she took my money, and she betrayed you," Agnes said to Dinah.
"Kylie Finch! I hate you!" Dinah threw the baby clothes in her hands to the ground with great force in anger. "I don't want to see you anymore! Get out of my face!"
"Dinah, I did take her money, but I have no idea she followed me." Kylie tried to explain, but was moved away by the two bodyguards.
Agnes smiled and appreciated Dinah's loose clothing with satisfaction, and then her sight fell on Dinah's belly.
"I'm Stephen's mother, and I'm your mother too from now on. Don't worry. I'll take good care of you and the baby.
"I don't need that, and I won't marry Stephen either!" Dinah shouted, then walked away.
Agnes gave the bodyguards a glance, and they soon caught Dinah back.
"Take her to the Marriage License Bureau now."
