His Mute Wife: He Can't Sleep After She Left-Chapter 115: Piercing Ethan Sinclair’s Heart
In the studio, Kate Lynch sat on the chair painting, wearing a white dress with neatly cut long hair draped over her back.
The wind blew in from the slightly open window, making her dress and long hair dance with the breeze.
This scene was incredibly similar to the one in his dream. His heart was racing, and he couldn’t help but step towards Kate Lynch.
Finally, he could see the painting on the board, it was a painting of pink Starlight.
Perhaps sensing someone coming in, Kate Lynch turned her head to look.
In the dream, he always woke up when the girl was about to turn her head.
At this moment, the two figures overlapped.
Kate!
It really is Kate!
"Ian..."
Seeing Ethan Sinclair, Kate Lynch smiled and ran over to him, and before he could react, she threw herself into his arms.
Ethan Sinclair’s body stiffened a bit. He reached out and touched Kate Lynch, and at this moment, he didn’t know whether he should push her away or hold her tightly.
Sensing Ethan Sinclair’s odd behavior, Kate Lynch’s eyes flickered slightly. Indeed, Ethan Sinclair must have remembered something.
Then she quickly let go of him, "I just painted a piece of Starlight for my brother, wait a little for me."
"...Okay."
Ethan Sinclair kept watching Kate Lynch, watching her put the painting into the tube and walk over to him.
"Alright, let’s go."
Kate Lynch took Ethan Sinclair’s arm. Seeing that Ethan Sinclair was not moving, but kept staring at her, Kate Lynch showed a puzzled expression on her face, "What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Ethan Sinclair shook his head, "No, let’s go."
Knowing Kate Lynch was the dream girl he’s been searching for, Ethan Sinclair should be happy, yet even he didn’t know why he felt there was something missing inside.
In the cemetery.
Ethan Sinclair held a black umbrella, most of it tilted towards Kate Lynch beside him.
The two stood before a tombstone with a photo of a teenage boy, smiling brightly, looking quite handsome.
In the prime of his youth, yet his life was forever fixed at twelve years old.
In front of the tombstone lay a lily bouquet that Ethan Sinclair had just placed.
Kate Lynch’s sad eyes deeply looked at the photo, wiping her tears away sadly.
"Brother, Ian and I came to see you."
Kate Lynch opened the painting tube, took out the painting and showed it to Felix Lynch, "I don’t know how you’re doing over there, whether you’re lonely, I painted a piece of Starlight for you, let it be with you for me."
Kate Lynch put the painting back into the tube and leaned it against Felix Lynch’s tombstone.
"Every time Stella and I made mistakes, when Dad wanted to scold us, my brother would protect us."
"He was so likable as a child, even in elementary school, someone said they liked him."
"He loved airplane models so much and said he would be a pilot when he grew up."
Whenever she reminisced about Felix Lynch, Kate Lynch’s tears couldn’t help but fall, partly genuine emotion, partly naturally acted.
Displaying how much she missed Felix Lynch and how sad she was made Ethan Sinclair feel more remorseful.
"He was so good, so outstanding, yet left us so early, when we got the news, we thought the sky was falling."
Kate Lynch spoke while crying, at the sad parts she buried herself into Ethan Sinclair’s arms, "Ian, I miss my brother so much, if he were still alive, he’d surely be an excellent pilot."
Ethan Sinclair clenched his fist tightly, feeling terribly upset inside.
He reached out to pat Kate Lynch’s back, full of guilt, "I’m sorry..."
Kate Lynch shook her head, lifting her tearful eyes to look pitifully at Ethan Sinclair, "Ian, I’m not blaming you, blame that bastard who cruelly killed my brother!"
When Felix Lynch was twelve, Ethan Sinclair had just turned ten.
They were usually together whether going to school or playing.
Once, a psychotic serial killer targeted them, kidnapped them to a house full of torture devices.
When they awakened by water splashes, they smelled strong blood odors, seeing torture tools placed on walls and tables.
The room was eerie, chilling to the core.
Memories of that day remained chaotic for him till now, only recalling when the man approached with a knife, Felix Lynch blocked in front of him.
He took the chance to hit the man unconscious with a nearby axe, then pulled Felix Lynch to run away.
But Felix Lynch was too severely injured, dying from excessive blood loss before even reaching the hospital.
Seeing Ethan Sinclair’s face heavy and grim, Kate Lynch felt heartache for him, knowing Felix Lynch’s death was a scar in his heart that would never heal.
If not for sheer necessity, she wouldn’t want to use Felix Lynch’s matter to poke Ethan Sinclair’s heart.
"Ian, the past is already past, what’s important is the present and future, we must live fully with my brother’s share of life."
Ethan Sinclair nodded but said nothing.
Kate Lynch originally wanted to use this opportunity to confess to Ethan Sinclair.
But seeing Ethan Sinclair was heavy-hearted, knowing this isn’t a good day for confession, she decided not to.
On the way back, Ethan Sinclair kept looking out the window, lost in thought, while Kate Lynch, watching his handsome profile, felt moved.
This man, she was determined to win.
"By the way, Ian, I was in a coma for three years, wasted over a thousand days and nights. Now that my body has recovered, I want to continue pursuing my dream."
"You’re thinking of acting?"
"Yes."
Kate Lynch smiled bitterly, "You know, I’ve always dreamed of being a movie queen, but spent the prime years on the bed. I wonder if I’ll have a chance again."
"As long as you want it, you’ll surely achieve it."
Kate Lynch seemed comforted by Ethan Sinclair’s words, excitedly nodding, "Yes, I will work hard."
"Have you decided which agency to sign with?"
"I want to go with Stellar Entertainment, after all, it’s easier to thrive with a big backing."
Stellar Entertainment is Varden’s largest agency, part of the Garrison Family’s business, with Evercrest Group as a shareholder, it churns out movie queens and kings.
For Kate Lynch now, fame is important but Ethan Sinclair is even more important.
If she became Evercrest Group’s president’s wife, she could go no obstacles in the entertainment industry.
Most crucially, Zoe Xavier and Julian Garrison are both at Stellar Entertainment.
One is Ethan Sinclair’s biological mother, the other his close brother.
Being closer to sources for quick favors, gaining support from Zoe Xavier and Julian Garrison, wouldn’t it mean trouncing Kiana Sutton?
Besides, she heard Zoe Xavier didn’t like Kiana Sutton, while Zoe Xavier might not be warm towards her, she at least saw her grow up and will surely help her.
Thinking of this, Kate Lynch would inevitably think of The Sinclair Matriarch, that old hag, why on earth does she treat Kiana Sutton so well?
