The door of the chairman's office was pushed open, and Dinah walked inside.

"Ethan, relax, don't be so mad at him." She spat on Matthew. "Matthew, let's see what you'll suffer!"

​​

Vincent walked in behind her and asked with surprise, "Magical pills can cure insomnia?"

"Are you dumb?" Dinah rolled her eyes at him. "Ethan just gave him a sleeping pill."

"Oh, right!" Vincent felt a little embarrassed, then looked at Ethan. "Ethan, do we need to send him to the base? What if..."

"If he escapes, you'll be punished!" Dinah threatened him. Afterward, she lifted Matthew's arm and dragged him out like he was a dead dog. "Gimme a helping hand!"

Vincent strode over and carried Matthew on his back without delay. "Have you got the result of the test of the magical pill I gave you last time?"

Hearing that, Dinah panicked a little. "Not yet. It takes time."

They walked outside together, but Ethan suddenly opened his mouth. "Dinah, stay here."

Dinah knew Vincent would believe her lie, but Ethan wouldn't. She put the car key into Vincent's pocket. "You go on ahead. I'll catch you up in a minute."

Dinah didn't turn to face Ethan until the door was closed. "Do you want me to teach old Mr. Parker a lesson?"

"Did Stephen take the pill?" Ethan asked with a calm face.

Dinah remained silent for a long while, then said in a shallow voice, "It's Viagra, which costs 10 thousand dollars a pill."

Ethan sat back on his executive chair. "Stephen hates schemes the most."

The magical pill was very effective. No matter how good Stephen was at controlling himself, it was unavoidable that he had sex with Dinah under its effect.

They were in an utterly tense relationship now.

Dinah sighed, then sat on a chair and slid towards Ethan. "I know what you're worried about. I'm Stephen's legal wife now. No matter how he hates me, he can't divorce me. He can't disclose our secret. We've been living like a mortal in this world, and our clan need to find the culprit behind those massive killings of our race,"

She bit her lips and continued. "Kylie is Mrs. Parker now, and nobody can change that either. It won't ever happen, not even Stephen. Lord Ethan, you should find ways to tell her the truth before Stephen spills it out. Think about your babies as they grow day by day inside Kylie's tummy. They will harm her if you can't make Kylie like us,"

Ethan leaned forward, staring at Dinah. "I'm not worried about Kylie as I can handle it later on before she gives birth. I can give her my inner power and transform her like us in no time. I'm concerned about you. If it can't succeed, don't force yourself to do that."

He didn't want Dinah to be hurt.

They were all aware that Dinah admired Stephen, but Stephen had never liked her during the past years.

In fact, Ethan didn't think Dinah and Stephen were a great match.

Stephen looked gentle and considerate, but he was also quite stubborn.

Once he made up his mind, nobody could change it.

Dinah remained silent for a while, then smiled. "I know. It's fine. There are plenty more fish in the sea. I think I should leave now. Vincent is still waiting for me."

"Dinah, he is human, and he can kill you. Remember, he is a Doctor and could formulate a medicine that will kill you any moment," A sad voice came out from Ethan's mouth.

Dinah gives him a sad smile. "Let my fate decide for it, Lord Ethan," Stephen was stubborn, so was Dinah.

Ethan already did what he could do.

People made different choices, and he had no right to interfere in their relationship.

Ethan nodded, and Dinah stood up at once.

When she arrived at the door, she stopped. "Magical pills are highly addictive. You can arrange someone to keep a close eye on Stephen after I'm gone. Probably you can find a clue."

"I understand," Ethan said.

At dusk, the shooting was over, and Kylie noticed the Knight XV stopped outside the set at a glance.

She ran over and looked inside the car window. "Hey, Mr. Handsome, who are you waiting for?"

Ethan turned to look at her. "My wife."

"Ha-ha, can you give me a ride?" Kylie beamed and joked.

"Get in." Ethan smiled.

"Sure." Kylie walked towards the front of the car and got on the passenger's seat.

"Mr. Handsome, did your wife annoy you? Why do you look so displeased?" Kylie asked.

"My wife's pregnant, and we can't have sex anymore," Ethan said. "Ha-ha, ha-ha," Kylie laughed out loud.

Ethan hugged her with one arm. "Do you feel tired today?"

"Um, I'm already used to it." Kylie leaned on his strong arm. "You seem upset."

"Nope." Ethan denied it and drove the car ahead.

"You're lying," Kylie said.

Ethan compressed his thin lips but didn't say a word.

Since Ethan didn't want to say it right now, Kylie didn't ask further. When they were waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Ethan stopped the car and said, "It wasn't an accident that I got lost that year."

Kylie pretended to be serious. "Didn't Matthew cause your missing?"

"No, it's old, Mr. Parker," Ethan replied.

Knowing that, Kylie was shocked. "Really? Although old Mr. Parker is a little strict with you, I think most fathers will do that because they have high expectations for their children."

The traffic light turned green, and the car moved again.

As the car moved forward, Kylie found out they were not going to the Finch family's house. Right, when she was about to ask Ethan where they were going,

Ethan said, "Old Mr. Parker knows who my father is."

The moment Ethan finished, Kylie realized they were heading to the Parker family's house.

Is Ethan going to pay old Mr. Parker back?

"Ethan, stay calm!" Kylie got nervous. "We can make a plan and figure it out at first. Probably there is a misunderstanding. Old Mr. Parker treats you as his own son. He..."

Before Kylie could finish, Ethan slammed on the brakes.

Kylie was thrown backward in the seat by force. She was scared and caught the doorknob at once.

Ethan noticed that with a side glance. He held Kylie's hand and started the car again. "Don't worry."

It was impossible for Kylie not to be worried. Once this secret was exposed, old Mrs. Parker would be in a dilemma.

One was her husband, while the other was her son. Which should she choose?

In the old-time, Kylie would support Ethan to pay old Mr. Parker back as he wanted. However, ever since she got pregnant, she had a more precise understanding of a mother's duty.

If Barbara hadn't married old Mr. Parker, she and her son couldn't have survived.

Even though Ethan was a thorn in Mrs. Parker's flesh, old Mr. Parker really loved old Mrs. Parker.

Old Mrs. Parker had married old Mr. Parker for so many years, and they got along together quite well. If old Mrs. Parker got to know her beloved son was living in her gentle husband's scheme all the time, could she accept it?

"Think about your mother," Kylie said, fixing her eyes on Ethan's expression.

Ethan snorted with disdain. "If he didn't treat my mother well, I would have killed him and his son a long time ago."

Hearing that, Kylie rounded her eyes in shock. "You already know it?"
