Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 936: Ulterior Motives?

After several rounds, July Quinn was exhausted.

She lay still, nestled against the pillow.

Kyle Keaton thought she was asleep and gently brushed aside her hair that had fallen over her face, intending to wipe her face with a warm towel.

But to his surprise, once he moved her hair aside, he saw her alluring eyes staring blankly out at the myriad lights beyond the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Not in a good mood?"

When July Quinn was upset, she usually ate a lot of instant noodles.

Although she hadn’t eaten any today, Kyle could sense her melancholy and gloom.

"Yeah."

July softly hummed in response.

"What’s bothering you? Was I too harsh when I got off work today?"

Kyle asked again.

In fact, he was quite worried that July would make a fuss over such things, so he took the initiative to bring it up.

But July denied it, "No."

"Then why?"

With his words, Kyle’s hand rested on July’s shoulder, using the towel to gently wipe her slender, enchanting back.

Unexpectedly, halfway through, July suddenly turned over, her hands hooking around his neck, pulling him on top of her.

Her eyes held a hint of dazed, shimmering moisture, just like when she pleaded helplessly when he was being too rough.

In a moment, the place that had just been satiated was now ready to stir trouble again.

But it was then, with a hoarse voice, July asked him:

"Honey, is being an illegitimate daughter really so disgraceful? Will your Keaton Family not accept me because I am an illegitimate daughter?"

He was taken aback.

"Who’s been gossiping to you about this? Roman Kidd?"

July Quinn was Richard Donovan’s illegitimate daughter.

Lately, July seemed indifferent about this connection.

But how could Kyle not know about July’s recent anxiety and unease?

Actually, she was still very mindful of her status as an illegitimate daughter, she just didn’t display it openly.

But today, July brought it up directly, so certainly someone must have been gossiping about her.

"It just came out spontaneously."

Roman Kidd didn’t mean to target her; it just happened that the topic of Auntie Ruby came up, sparking a little worry in July, worrying that the Keaton Family would also point fingers at her due to her background.

"Rest assured, our family isn’t that particular."

The Keaton Family became wealthy, unlike other families who rely on marriage alliances.

Moreover, the men in the Keaton Family are romantics; once they are committed to a woman, they let her take full charge.

Under such circumstances, it’s hard for others to interject in their marriage, so the Keaton Family wouldn’t choose to strengthen the family through marriage alliances like other families.

After explaining roughly, Kyle said, "Don’t trust that Roman Kidd, he doesn’t mean well."

"Why are you so against Roman Kidd today?"

Before, Kyle didn’t particularly like Roman Kidd, but he wasn’t this hostile.

"Am I targeting him?"

"I only said a couple of words, and you bring it all down on him."

"That must be because he did something shady!" 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Coveting Kyle Keaton’s woman is the original sin.

Yet Kyle Keaton would absolutely not expose this for Roman Kidd.

That kind of helping others, the idea that everyone being happy is truly good, is a noble trait he’s destined not to have in this lifetime!

Worried that July Quinn would once again focus the conversation on Roman Kidd, Kyle quickly spoke again:

"As long as I don’t bring a man home, they won’t mind. So rest assured. But the question is, when will you come home with me to meet the parents?"
