Chapter 537: Chapter 537: Thrown Out
Perhaps Kyle Keaton’s words were cold and hurtful, or maybe they pierced her heart.
In any case, the flirtatious charm on July Quinn’s face vanished.
In its place was anger and displeasure.
"In your eyes, is everything I do just a tactic? And by ’innocent person,’ are you referring to the one with the last name White?"
She felt that what she did in front of Kyle Keaton was merely the affection between husband and wife, not a tactic.
Of course, what hurt her most was the implication that the ’innocent person’ Kyle Keaton mentioned was likely Bianca White.
Bianca White tried to have her killed, but considering she was someone by Kyle Keaton’s side, it hadn’t resulted in any substantial harm, and July Quinn had only given her a slap, which was already lenient.
Yet Kyle Keaton indiscriminately accused her out of concern for this woman, leaving July Quinn feeling stifled inside.
"I wasn’t talking about her."
Kyle Keaton was referring to Victor Hawthorne.
Even now, when he closes his eyes, his mind is filled with images of that day under the rain, when she rode a motorcycle with Victor Hawthorne, chatting and laughing, with such youthful harmony.
Calling him husband, and then being intimate with his nephew.
Upon reflection, Kyle Keaton felt that July Quinn’s actions were simply to draw his attention.
But the facts also proved that this time, her tactic was more successful than ever before.
See, Kyle Keaton had actively sought her out, hadn’t he?
Yet the instigator denied it and coldly questioned him: "If it’s not her, then who?"
"Don’t play dumb with me!"
She could investigate the relationship between Victor Hawthorne and him, yet acted ignorant in front of him?
How laughable!
"Kyle Keaton, liking you is not a reason for you to trample on my self-esteem!"
She thought, if something is unusual, there must be a reason; if someone is unusual, there must be a weapon!
See, didn’t Kyle Keaton just bring a figurative knife and stab her?
Thankfully, she had the foresight to drive that Bianca White out first, or else she would have become a laughingstock.
After venting her anger, she suddenly clutched her chest, feeling a dull ache.
After the operation, the doctor advised her to avoid emotional upheavals, but she still couldn’t control it...
Perhaps due to the pain, her voice became a bit hoarse.
"Someone was better before; no matter what I did, he would unconditionally protect me."
Whether in front of The Quinn Family or outsiders...
Listening to July Quinn’s hoarse voice, Kyle Keaton felt like something flashed through his mind.
But it happened too quickly for Kyle Keaton to capture anything.
Seeing July Quinn constantly clutching her chest, seemingly in discomfort, his body moved before his mind and went forward to support her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped forward, July Quinn avoided his touch: "Leave, I don’t want to see you for a week."
Without giving Kyle Keaton a chance to react, July Quinn directly opened the office door and pushed him out.
Then the office door slammed shut, nearly hitting Kyle Keaton’s nose.
"Lord Keaton? What happened?"
Bianca White was guarding the door, still planning how to urge Kyle Keaton to hurry out of the vixen’s den.
Before she could come up with a strategy, Kyle Keaton was pushed out, while from inside, the door kept slamming noisily.
Clearly, it wasn’t just Bianca White who didn’t understand the situation.
Kyle Keaton was also a bit confused.
He came to confront July Quinn, but how did he end up being driven out?
But aside from being completely puzzled, he found this scene strangely familiar, as if it had happened before...
