She said, "My good friend, Stars, will be here soon. It would mean a lot to me if you would agree to meet him. He is like a brother to me. He is helping me several times since my younger days,"
"Is he the one who put you through school," Ethan wondered with a mischievous tone to his voice.
Kylie sensed that there was something wrong the way he talked. She sat up quickly and asked Ethan if he'd been Stars all along. Ethan stared blankly at Kylie. He knew Kylie was desperate to know the truth. "What do you think?" Ethan asked her in a voice that gave nothing away.
