The Doted Lady Is So Wild

Chapter 44 Open the Door



After telling her the address and code of the apartment, Kristen hurriedly hung up the phone and walked out of the office. After that, she met Jacob, who was walking over with a cup of coffee.

“Miss Healey…”

“Jacob, I’m sorry, but please tell Ethan that I have something urgent to attend to and can’t have dinner with him.”

Before Jacob could react, Kristen had already run away.

She took a taxi to her apartment, bought some medicine on the way, opened the door, and walked in.

Trisha, who was dressed as a man, had just walked out of the bathroom when she could vaguely see blood flowing from her arm.

“What happened to you? Why are you so badly injured?”

Trisha took the ointment from Kristen’s hand with no expression on her face and rolled up her sleeves. The wound on her arm was shocking.

Then, she applied medicine to her wounds and bandaged herself. During this process, she didn’t even frown.

“Don’t you feel the pain, Sylv?”

Kristen, who was afraid of pain, admired her very much.

“I’m used to it. It’s just a minor injury for me.”

“Is this still a minor injury?” Kristen said, “Where did you go? Who hurt you like this?”

It was Kristen’s first time seeing Trisha injured.

“Patrick Cotton, he laid a trap for me.” As she spoke, Trisha felt depressed.

“This guy again?” Kristen asked, Trisha continued.

“Emper Group put out a city-wide wanted on me. In this case, it’s not convenient for me to go to the hotel. I can only stay with you for a few days.”

“It’s okay. Just stay here with ease. No one will come to disturb you.”

After saying that, Kristen opened the refrigerator, but there was nothing in it. She frowned.

“I’m going downstairs to buy something to eat. What do you want?”

Kristen picked up her phone and realized that it was powered off. Just as she was about to look for a charger to charge, the apartment doorbell rang.

Kristen was stunned. Sensing Trisha’s gaze on her, she seemed to be asking, “Didn’t you say that no one would disturb us?”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Did Patrick find this place?” Kristen cautiously walked to the door and peered through the peephole. It wasn’t Jack, but Ethan…

“Why is he here?”

Kristen glanced at Trisha and comforted her with her eyes before slowly opening the door.

“What are you doing here?”

“Why are you here?”

As soon as they met, they spoke at the same time.

Kristen looked at him in confusion. Ethan knew this place, but it was strange that he knew she had come here after leaving for TNK Group.

“Your phone is turned off. Jacob said that you left in a hurry. I’m worried about you.”

“Then how did you find this place?”

Ethan said, “The two bodyguards I sent you before have been following you.”

Hearing that, Kristen was enlightened.

“My… my bestie is sick. She just called me, so I came over, and then my phone ran out of battery.”

Ethan looked at the closed door behind him, asking slowly, “Is that so?”

“Yes.”

Intuition told him that Kristen was hiding something from him. He calmly said, “Then I want to get to know your bestie. If she is seriously ill, I can ask Xenos to treat her.”

Ethan wanted to open the door, but Kristen quickly stopped him.

“No.”

Ethan stared at Kristen in front of him.

Kristen smiled and said, “My bestie has a fever. It’s nothing serious. She’s resting now. I’ll introduce her to you next time.”

Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Kristen, are you hiding a man behind the door?”

Kristen was shocked. “A man? What are you thinking about?”

“Then open the door and let me have a look.”

Seeing Ethan’s determination, Kristen felt helpless and troubled. “If I open the door and Trisha is wearing men’s clothing, doesn’t that mean that she is hiding a man? Trisha’s identity will definitely be exposed.”

“No!”

Just as Kristen was about to reject Ethan’s request, the door was slowly opened.

Trisha stuck her head out and asked slowly, “Kristen, who is it?”

At this time, she had already put on a black T-shirt. She took off the wig, her long black hair hanging loose, and the makeup on her face had been removed. At this moment, she looked like a beauty.

This is Trisha’s original appearance.

Kristen instantly breathed a sigh of relief. She had to admire Trisha’s reaction and said with a smile, “Well, it’s a friend. You are still ill. Go back and lie down.”

Trisha nodded, glanced at Trisha, and closed the door.

“See? I didn’t hide a man. Ethan, there’s something wrong with you. You don’t trust me at all. I’m very angry.”

Kristen pressed the elevator button. Ethan frowned slightly and followed her down.

Ethan apologized, “I’m sorry, I misunderstood.”

Everything seemed to be fine. Kristen’s bestie’s face was pale and she did seem to be ill, but Ethan could vaguely feel that something was wrong. As for what exactly was wrong, he couldn’t figure it out.

Kristen was a little angry, so she ignored him and went downstairs. She put on a mask and went to the store to buy something. Ethan followed her all the way.

When she paid, she remembered that her phone was out of battery, so she could only look at Ethan behind her.

“Pay.”

“If you’re not angry, I’ll pay.”

Kristen was speechless.

Despicable and shameless!

She huffed coldly. “All right, all right, I won’t be angry anymore, but you have to promise me that you’ll recall your bodyguards. Now that the Davis family knows that I am your woman, they won’t dare to do anything else, so I don’t need these bodyguards.”

Furthermore, given how powerful Kristen was, Taylor’s men wouldn’t dare to do anything to her.

Ethan remained silent for two seconds before he agreed in the end.

After paying the bill and leaving the shop, Kristen said slowly, “Go home. Sylv is still sick, I will stay here tonight.”

Ethan was unhappy, but he didn’t say anything.

“Okay, go back and charge your phone. Call me if you need anything.”

“Got it.”

Kristen carried her things upstairs, returned to her apartment, and sat down on the sofa leisurely.

“I was scared to death just now. I almost fell out with Ethan to conceal your identity. Fortunately, you made an appearance in time.”

Trisha glanced at her and casually said, “I heard the conversation at the door just now. It doesn’t look like a contract relationship, but more like a quarrel between lovers.”

Kristen was speechless.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Oh yes, your true colors have been exposed. Will there be any problems?”

“It’s nothing,” Trisha said indifferently.
