Loving A STRANGER Chapter 410

Before Agnes could get her mind back, Ethan already stepped into the shopping mall.
"Wait for a second!" Agnes ran ahead, leaving the shopping bag on the floor.
However, there were many people in the shopping mall, and she soon lost the tall and strong back.
"How is it possible? How is it possible?" Agnes bit her lips and gripped her handbag. She didn't feel the pain when she broke her fingernail.
"Ma'am, your shopping bag!" A security guard caught her up with a bag in hand.
"May I help?"
"A young man, this tall, in a black suit..." Agnes caught the security guard's hand in excitement. "Help me find him! Help me find him! As long as you can find him, I can give you anything you want."
The security guard glanced around. This shopping mall was a well-known shopping center of luxuries in Seattle, and the customers here were either rich or powerful. A tall young man in a black suit? There were tons of men of that kind!
"Ma'am, do you have other clues?" the security guard asked.
Agnes bit her fist and gradually calmed herself down. She raised a smile. "I'm sorry. I just mistook him for another person. It's fine." She took the shopping bag from the hand of the security guard, then walked outside, trying to stay calm.
However, when she just walked to the entrance, she still couldn't help but look back. She was sure she was right!
The security guard saw she was fine all of a sudden and believed she must have a mental problem. He said to his walkie-talkie, "A middle-aged woman, long dress, short hair. Watch her. The president is in the mall, and we can't allow her to cause any trouble."
"Copy that. Copy that," a security guard at the entrance said and noticed Agnes walking out at this time. Therefore, he followed up in silence.

The president had never shown up in this shopping mall before. If this crazy woman annoyed him, they would be fired on site.
Agnes remembered the young man drove a very bulky car here, so she wanted to search around the parking lot to find it. If she got to know its number plate, she could find out the man's identity.
Nevertheless, she walked around the parking lot three times but still failed to find the Knight XV.
Was it possible that the car wasn't his, and it just sent him here?
"Ma'am, can't you find your car?" The security guard walked over. "Do you mind telling me your car number, and I can help you find it."
"Oh, sorry. I can just call my chauffeur." Agnes took out her phone and made a call.
Once the call was answered, she questioned on the phone. "How dare you lie to me?"

In the café, Ethan walked inside when Kylie was about to leave.
"Why do you come here?" Kylie asked, then realized Dinah must have called him. "We just shared coffee together. No big deal."
Ethan held her hand and checked her from head to foot with his eyes, and then his sight fell on Kylie's wrist. "Where is the bracelet?"
Dinah approached and shouted in shock, "Wasn't you wearing it just then?" Kylie gave her a glance to tell her to close her mouth.
However, Dinah misunderstood it and thought it had something to do with her that the bracelet was missing. In that case, she looked at Kylie. "Did Mrs. Cecil break your bracelet? She's such an old witch!"
Hearing that, Ethan was displeased. "Did you have an argument?" Even though Agnes was Stephen's mother, he wouldn't allow her to break his mother's heirloom nor hurt Kylie.
Seeing these could be another conflict between Ethan and Stephen, Kylie drew out the bracelet from her bag at once.

"It's fine." She put it on her wrist with a smile. "Mrs. Cecil isn't a bad person." Dinah snorted, "Not a good one either."
Kylie turned to look at Ethan after she put it on well. "You've known Stephen for so many years, and you should know what kind of person his mother is."
"Let alone Ethan, I just met his parents myself." Dinah interrupted. "Stephen doesn't have a good relationship with his parents, so he never had mentioned them before us. We've never met them before either."
Kylie compressed her lips and was a little more scared of Stephen.
Ethan was Adolph's biological son and was still kept a secret till now, which couldn't be a coincidence.
Stephen had met Ethan's mother, and he should know the similarity between her and Agnes. Besides, his major was medicine, and it was super easy for him to find out the family connection between Ethan and Adolph.
Stephen was so scary!
He had been wearing a mask for so long!
"What are you thinking?" Ethan asked in a deep voice when he noticed the absent look on Kylie's face.
Kylie held Ethan's arm, walking outside. "I think that the prices aren't high at this café."
"Let me pay the bill since we invited Stephen's mother for the coffee," Dinah said.
The owner of this café strode over in a hurry and greeted Ethan with great respect. "Chairman Parker, I'm sorry that I come late."
"How much is it?" Ethan took out his wallet with an expressionless face.
"Please don't. It's my honor that you come here today." The owner declined to accept Ethan's money.
Both Kylie and Dinah were surprised that Ethan put his wallet back with a calm face. How many subsidiary companies Century Group had?
As the chairman of such a large business group, why didn't he politely decline it when the owner said the coffee was free?
Since when Lord Ethan became so economical?
Kylie asked him in a low voice, "Why didn't you pay the bill?"
Ethan replied with a serious face, "I need to save money to raise our babies."
Dinah laughed. "Kylie, you and Ethan are a great match. Both of you are so economical."
Kylie gave her a glance. "Don't you care more about your personal hygiene after you married Stephen?"
Dinah disagreed. "It's true that I care about my personal hygiene, but Stephen is losing his good habits as to that!"
"Do you know that he doesn't wash his hands after using the washroom now? I even don't want to touch him right now!"
Kylie was amused. "How do you know it? Did you use the washroom along with him?"
"I..." Dinah flushed. "I just know it!"
Ethan glanced at Dinah. "Where are you going next? I can send you there."
"No, thanks," Dinah said. "I want to hang around myself."
"Sure, see you!" Kylie waved good-bye to her, then followed Ethan walking into the VIP elevator.
When Dinah just walked to the entrance, she saw Agnes sitting on a bench with an angry face. It seemed Agnes was in a terrible mood.
Dinah felt lucky that Kylie and Ethan didn't walk out with her; otherwise, they would run into Agnes.
"Mom, why are you still here?" Dinah asked with a smile.
"What? You hate to see me?" Agnes raised her head and found Kylie was absent.

Statless
Summary Alexander Weiss, an intelligent and slightly unusual man, always dreamt of becoming a mage. Sadly, reality is harsh and even his best efforts never allowed him to achieve his goal during his lifetime... or did they? One has to be careful what they wish for, lest they might live to see it fulfilled. Description Follow Alex, a man whose pursuit of magic could not even be stopped by his non-magical reality, going as far as to create it himself, only to encounter an unsurmountable obstacle shortly before achieving his lifes goal, denying him all access to these powers. His journey will take him through a miraculous world, full of wonders, magic and manic beasts trying to devour him! He will learn much about this world during his adventures, exploring individual aspects of the System and the various monsters that came from it... or did they? Strong points What you'll get from this novel is the following (read with overly enthusiastic salesman-voice) : • An ending! I'll complete it, no matter what. Well, not "no matter what", but as long as I don't unexpectedly end, this novel won't either! • Good grammar! Might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough to not detract from the story in the slightest. I'll also fix any reported mistakes as soon as possible, be they grammatical, syntactical or just inconsistencies. • No plot-armor! Or plot-weapons! Or plot-... potions? And no plot-holes! If you see some, it's most likely information that is being witheld for future revelations! But in the (hopefully) very unlikely case of such a vile beast being encountered, please inform me immediately and I'll see to slaying it without grace! (Translation: If you see plot-holes, tell me and I'll fix them) • Logic! [Hidden : Spoilers][Hidden : More Spoilers] [Moved to Chapter [Hidden Spoiler]'s Author's Note] Marvelous, I know! • Blue Boxes! And maybe something more! • Sensible retroactive edits! Not to be confused with radioactive edits! You'll not have to re-read previous chapters, even if they get some major edits. If they were to receive new information, I'll add that very information to the newly released chapters too, in a reasonable way. • Realism! Shocking, I know! Especially considering the tag related to that and the point about "Logic!". This also means that the story will be... well, realistically depicting a pretty messed up world. Don't expect bunnies... at least not cute ones. • Relatively faster paced! No long and boring descriptions of irrelevant stuff. There will be some longer descriptions about important things, but that's gonna be necessary world- and/or character-building! • Short action! Might not be a plus for some, but you won't have to look at a whole (or, god forbit, multiple) chapter describing a fight against the same enemy... • Strategy and hard progression! It's a dog-eat-dog world! No grinding/power-creep! If you're up against three enemies of your level at once, you've already lost! • Understanding! It will be mostly about discovering the wonders of this new world and how it became like that, all while trying to survive. So there will be enough action nonetheless! • Humor! Sometimes dark, sometimes light, always at the worst moment! • Constructive critics, welcome! Destructive critics, nope... I can handle criticism though, so don't go easy on me! Just make sure it's really a mistake when complaining about something. • Will add more in the future! If I can think of more stuff...
