Chapter 306: He Overheard The Conversation

Kylie was busy below deck. Like a child, she was playing with the Barbie dolls that Stephen had provided for her. She set her favorite doll down for a moment to show Stephen a maid's outfit that she'd found. "What do you think about this?" she wondered.

Stephen smiled. "It's nice," he replied absently, "but I like the princess dress better."

They had been playing dress-up when Ethan had called earlier. Stephen and William had only been talking for a few moments when Kylie had called him. The princess dress that she had been trying to put on the doll had stuck in the middle, and she'd called him to help her.

Barbie Doll, "Are you praising me or the dress?"
