Love’s Cunning Ruse ( Mr.Kieran And Julie )

Chapter 311

Julie stood at the deserted hospital room doorway, her gaze flicking between the empty space and Kieran, who was just as perplexed by Kyle’s sudden outburst. But by the time they stepped out of the room, Kyle had already vanished into the elevator.

Downstairs, Kyle slid into the backseat of the car and commanded, “Drive. Take me to the Cardinal Hotel.”

The man behind the wheel was Curtis. He fired up the engine and set the navigation for the Cardinal Hotel. Only then did he glance at Kyle through the rear view mirror. After a moment of silence, he ventured, “Are we heading to the presidential suite at the hotel, young master?”

Kyle shot Curtis a look but didn’t utter a word.

Curtis’s expression turned grave as he peered at Kyle through the mirror, “Young master, if you’re planning on going to the hotel now, it might be…”

“Curtis,” Kyle’s voice was ice as he uttered the name, his brows furrowed and his stare carried a dangerous glint, “Since when did I require your advice and decisions on my affairs?”

“My apologies, young master,” Curtis bowed his head and sped toward the Cardinal Hotel.

Thirty minutes later, inside the presidential suite.

Kleist stood respectfully before Simon, “Young master, Stefan is at the door.”

“Oh?” Simon, who was steeping tea, raised an eyebrow and spoke evenly, “Let him in.”

Kleist opened the door and stepped aside, “Please, come in.”

Kyle walked in, while Kleist blocked Curtis at the door. Curtis’s gaze hardened as he faced off against Kleist, who stood with a look that read, ‘You’ll have to step over my dead body to get through here.

Eventually, Kyle looked back at Curtis and said, “Wait here for me.”

Reluctantly, Curtis stepped back and stood guard at the door.

Kleist smirked with a touch of irony and closed the door.

“Hey,” Simon didn’t bother looking up from his tea-making, “Take a seat.”

Kyle settled onto the sofa opposite Simon and was about to speak when suddenly, a blue and white porcelain cup was extended towards him.

He took it and placed it on the coffee table without drinking.

“What brings you back?” Simon paused, his fingers on the cup lid still, and looked up at Kyle with piercing blue eyes, “Since when do I have to report my whereabouts to you?” “Indeed, your whereabouts are none of my concern,”

Amanda hadn’t been fond of Julie for years, she had been blaming her for Kieran’s derailed life due to Sansa’s machinations. Still, when Sansa was hospitalized, Amanda had visited her once a gesture of her gracious upbringing.
