Loving A STRANGER 107 Chapter 107: Stubborn

Kylie shifted at the touch, and her eyes fluttered open to Ethan's smiling face.

"Good morning, beautiful," Ethan softly whispered while stroking her curly hair. 

"Your hair is very much like you."

"Beautiful?" Kylie asked, smiling mischievously.

"Stubborn," Ethan replied, seriously trying hard to hide his smirk.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kylie was embarra.s.sed at the penetrating gaze of Ethan.

"Do you have work to do?" He said while smiling.

"I have to ask the company. I don't know yet." Kylie stretched and yawned.

Ethan bent over and kissed her exposed collarbone, "I want to take you home right now."

Kylie laughed and looked at him, "What are we going to do at home? The same thing we are doing here?" she winked at him.

"And what are we doing there? Shall we continue?" Ethan hoa.r.s.ely asked.

"We shall," Kylie replied with excitement in her eyes.

Aiden was feeling like s.h.i.t; he had a pounding headache, and his body ached from the fight he had with his uncle. On top of that, he was about to become a father? What the h.e.l.l was happening to his life? He walked to Khloe's room to talk to her. Somehow, he knew that there was another story behind this, and he was going to extract it out of Khloe no matter what. 

Khloe was sitting on the sofa, and there were tear tracks on her face. Aiden felt a little bad at seeing her crying face.

"Aiden..." Khloe ran to him and wrapped her arms around his waist, "I thought you were leaving me..."

"Khloe, are you really pregnant?" Aiden disregarded her question and got straight to the point. Khloe's body froze at Aiden's strict question and burst into tears again.

"Aiden! I can't believe you're even asking me that! Why would I lie to you about that...Or you are saying that you want to be with my sister, so you're hoping I'm not pregnant?"

"That's not what I meant," Aiden sighed tiredly.

"Aiden, I love you...I made some mistakes before, but I was so stressed, with work, with family, with Kylie! I was afraid of losing everything! But I love you, Aiden!"

"Okay, don't cry anymore," Aiden replied. "Kylie, I will help you get back into the industry. You will not lose anything."

"Aiden, I don't need anything else! I only want you. I want to be with you." She wiped off the tears and looked at Aiden, "I don't care about the money or roles. You are way more important than them."

Aiden did not say anything in response; in fact, he seemed a little lost at Khloe's admission.

Seeing Aiden's hesitation and lack of reaction, Khloe took out her cell and called Lucas, "Lucas, make an appointment at the hospital for me. I am going to have an abortion."

"Don't be f.u.c.king crazy," Aiden yelled and ran over, yanking the cell out of Khloe's hands. "Why are you always like this? I didn't say that I don't want this baby."

"But this baby will be a barricade between you and my sister...I don't want to be your burden." Khloe tearfully replied, shedding tears. All of a sudden, Khloe swayed as if she was about to faint. She suddenly leaned over, falling in Aiden's arms. 

"Khloe! Khloe, what happened?! Are you feeling ill?" Aiden grabbed her tightly and walked her over to the sofa, trying to comfort her, "After all these years, you still haven't understood the real me. Don't talk nonsense anymore. Be happy about your baby." Aiden replied, but inside, he was feeling something completely different. Aiden was determined to get back to Kylie and also his baby. He just needed to calm Khloe down first.

He did not care about Khloe, but she was still carrying his child.

"Really?" Khloe smiled, lying within his arms, "Aiden, we will have a healthy baby. I know it. This will make me so happy." Aiden smiled but frowned when he saw how Khloe took a completely different turn. One second she was about to pa.s.s out; the next second, she was beaming like she got her favorite toy.

"As long as you and the baby are healthy, I am happy." Aiden stood up and poured a gla.s.s of water for her, "Don't panic; you need to stay calm for the baby."

Khloe nodded, "You're right. I need to relax. For the baby." She took the gla.s.s of water from Aiden and drank.

Aiden nodded and stood up, hoping to leave her room. His headache was intensified ten times with Jasmin's high pitched voice.

He walked towards the door and was about to leave, but Khloe interrupted him, "Aiden, aren't you going to stay?"

"You should rest, Khloe. I will pick you up tomorrow morning..." Then he kissed her forehead.

"But..."

"Go to sleep Khloe. Remember, you need to rest. Don't worry too much, okay?"

As soon as Aiden left her room, Khloe rushed toward her bag and grabbed her cell. "Mom, he left. He believed me! But mom, how can I get pregnant now?"

"Don't panic, sweet pea. Try to hold him for as long as you can. We will come up with a better solution."

"Then, you must hurry. I can't fake this for a long time." Khloe fell back on her bed. "When his mother finds out, she will take me to the hospital. She will find out."

Alice Davis was relaxing with a gla.s.s of wine on her veranda. She was quiet as she listened to her daughter, ranting about how she had trapped Aiden with a fake pregnancy.

"I have an idea," Alice spoke up, interrupting Khloe. "You should call Aiden's Mom now to ask her to take you to the hospital."

"Are you crazy?" Khloe yelled out.

"Relax, Khloe; I will take care of it for you." Alice comforted her high-strung daughter and hung up the phone. She then called one of her close friends, who was a gynecologist.

"Hey, Mary! Are you still working at that private hospital? Can I ask you for a favor?"
