Loving A Stranger - Chapter 537

Elliot also stood up and made a hand gesture to invite her to go onstage like a gentleman.

William laid the gavel at once. “Sold! Congratulations to this lady!”

Thunderous applause sounded offstage till the lady stepped on the stage. She took a photo with Kylie’s drawing, then went to finish the rest procedures with a staff member.

“Isn’t she your people?” Kylie asked Ethan.

“Be confident about yourself.” Ethan looked at her with a pair of tender eyes.

Kylie kissed his cheek. “You’re the real painter of that drawing. If nobody wants to buy it, you’re the one who’ll be embarrassed.”

Fannie stood up in excitement at this moment. “I need to have a look and arrange some reporters to report this news!”

“I’ll go with you,” Kylie said, standing up. “I should show up since she already bought my drawing.”

Ethan nodded and reminded her to be careful.

Ethan didn’t dial a number until both Kylie and Fannie were out of the private room. “Kylie is going to meet her. Go have a check.”

“Yes, sir.” Elliot hung up the call and walked backstage.

The woman was also talking to someone on the phone at this time. She signed on the document and kept nodding. “Yes, I just bought it.”

Kylie and Fannie walked towards her from another side. Kylie smiled at her. “Miss, thank you so much for buying my drawing.”

The woman didn’t hang up her call and said to Kylie, “My boss loves your drawing very much.”

“Your boss?” Kylie was surprised. “Can I meet him? May I thank him in person?” The woman glanced at Kylie from head to toe. “I’m sorry my boss is very busy, and I’m afraid he can’t meet you.”

From the woman’s behavior, Kylie understood she must be talking with her boss on the phone right now.

Therefore, she pointed at the phone in the woman’s hand. “May I talk to him for a short while?”

“Sorry.” The woman turned Kylie down without hesitation.

Kylie felt a little embarrassed. “Um, well, please help me pass on my thanks to your boss. In fact, my drawing isn’t worth that much money.”

There was a faint smile on the woman’s lips. She said to Kylie, “My boss said that he buys your drawing to support your charity fund, and he also feels honored to own your drawing because you’re a very kind good girl.”

Before Kylie could say anything else, the woman checked the time. “I’m sorry, I gotta go now.” After that, she left at once.

Fannie walked over and pulled Kylie’s arm. “Hey, don’t you think the woman and her boss are very strange?”

Kylie turned to ask the staff member, “What’s their buyer’s name?”

“Um, the woman said she bought a drawing of the night sky, so she left the word ‘star’ in the space of the buyer,” the staff member said.

Hearing that, Kylie was shocked.

“How did she pay the money?” Kylie asked again, feeling nervous.

As long as there was a billing record, she could find out the buyer’s identity.

She always had a feeling that Stephen was still alive. It seemed to be true now.

However, the staff member said to her after checking the payment, “The buyer paid with a bank account from Switzerland, and the identity information is kept secret.”

Kylie clenched her fists, trying to calm herself down.

Fannie patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry, we can turn to Ethan for help.”

“No, we can’t!” Kylie looked worried. “We can’t let Ethan find it out.”

“Why?” Fannie was confused.

“I’m not sure whether their buyer is Stephen or not yet. I don’t want to disappoint him,” Kylie said.

“If Stephen is still alive, it must be a lie that he told me Stephen’s body is already rotten. I don’t want to doubt his words. He said that for a reason. If I turn to him for help right now, he could be sad and think I don’t trust him.”

Fannie thought for a while, then thought Kylie’s words made sense.

Kylie and Ethan were back to normal after Stephen’s death. Fannie was also unwilling to see them argue again because of Stephen.

“What do you want to do now?” Fannie asked.

“I think to think carefully about that,” Kylie said with a serious face.

Elliot, who stood far away, watched everything and reported it to Ethan. Although Ethan couldn’t find out who the buyer was through the bank account either, he could easily get the transaction record.

Ten million dollars was a lot of money. If the woman was able to pay it so quickly, she must have prepared the money beforehand.

It wasn’t a coincidence, but a plan.

Ethan had his own connections, and he soon found out the transaction record of that bank account.

Kylie had told him that Stephen owned an island with rich diamond mines.

He had already located the island and got to know the basic information of the owner.

Although the information wasn’t true, the transaction record was real, and the bank account was the same as the one which paid for Kylie’s drawing today.

In that case, the money was from Stephen’s Swiss bank account.

“Ethan, is Stephen really still alive?” Nate couldn’t believe his eyes.

Bank of Switzerland required two types of passwords. One was digital, while the other was a voice password. If someone wanted to transfer a large amount of money from an account, he or she must provide both the digital password and the account holder’s voice at the same time.

If there were a person who had a record of Stephen’s voice, he or she would transfer a fortune from Stephen’s bank account once Stephen was dead, instead of buying Kylie’s drawing.

Ethan sat upright on the sofa with his legs crossed.

Seeing Ethan remain silent, Nate kept thinking about it. Within three seconds, he hit his lap with a clear sound. “Ethan, do you plan to use that drawing to attract Stephen’s attention on purpose?”

Ethan’s sight fell on Nate’s face. “You’re not so dumb as I think. I tried to locate Stephen through telepathy, but I think he concealed his location by using his own inner power too. I am not against him anymore because he’s my little brother, but he had to face all that he’d done,”

“Yeah, you’re right, and besides, he still holds great skills that were useful to our race.After all, he is called the great Ghost Doctor. What’s makes me feel annoyed with your twin brother was his eagerness to take everything you have and loving the woman you loved,”

Ethan didn’t answer because he knew the history of his mother and his aunt Agnes repeated to Stephen and him.He heaved a deep sigh, “I can’t blame him as Kylie was beautiful and sweet,”

Nate rolled his eyes ” I have this strong sense that Stephen is still alive, and didn’t Kylie notice that?” Nate asked in a low voice.

Ethan laid his hand on an armrest of the sofa. He stretched and withdrew his fingers. “I think she hopes to see Stephen again.”

“Why? Isn’t…” Nate wanted to repeat something, but Ethan shook his hand to stop Nate.

At this moment, the door of this room was pushed open, and Kylie, along with Fannie, walked inside.

“How is it?” Nate looked to Fannie. “Did you thank the buyer?”
