Listening to Hallie Morgan's words, Kylie Morales was startled, and then she remembered that Ruby Morgan had just been on a program with her.
With her head bowed, the heat on her face was evident, and though she tried to hide it, her ears reddened, making it impossible to conceal.
"Did Ruby tell you that?"
"Yeah, you and Sir are said to be often flaunting your love in the garden, which is making others die of jealousy. So, what's the situation between you and Sir now?"
Kylie's face flushed even more, and her eyes seemed to drift off to somewhere else as she stammered, "Just, just… For some reason, Fredrick Jones just won't let me leave. I had no choice but to stay until now, and sometimes he insists on dragging me along to act in plays. Don't listen to Ruby's nonsense, all that is just for show."
"Well, you certainly seem committed to the act, changing Uncle to Fredrick Jones now."
