His breath smelt like tequila, giving her a tingly feeling.Her grip on his hands fastened on hearing the words from him.'What is this guy doing to me?

I have no idea what's happening either.' he replied, not taking his lips off hers' for once. The fire between them kept on burning fiercely. it felt so unquenchable.He pinned her hands against the wall. Quinn stopped kissing her and stared deeply into her eyes, at the same time, asking himself 'who the hell is this lady standing in front of him?'He wore a short-sleeve plain blue T-shirt and denim jeans. She noticed his eyes, it wasn't blue this time around but blood-red, like he has been crying or maybe drinking. His glittering earrings diverted her stare and his facial expression was charming. Her eyes traveled down his chest.Karen lifted her han

She slowly opened her eyes and the face that met her was so alluring .

Her tongue fluttered against his and his hands were deep in the softness of her hair.Karen wanted this so badly, there was no need pretending like she didn't want him.She returned the kiss with so much desire emanating from her.

Chapter: 10. The surprise visit'Karen Kim' The voice came from the cellphone. It was just one person that normally addresses her that way and that person is Mr. Kim 's wife, Karen's mum.'Yes ma'am' she replied sluggishly , adjusting herself on the seat on hearing the voice of the only woman she will forever cherish.'How are you doing?' Mum asked 'Very well ma'am' 'I hope you called to tell me about your fiancè because I have been waiting for this call.' Mrs. Kim said'Haba mum, so I can't call my mother to greet her in peace again?' Karen retorted feeling a bit uncomfortable with the conversation cos she knew where her mum was driving to.'No, you can't call to greet me without your fiancè speaking at the background. Karen Kim where are you right now?' Mum asked'Mum, I am at work' she answered'Work? work? work again?! Mrs. Kim said 'Yes, work. Today is a Monday.

365 DAYS WITH YOU
The day CARL BRADFORD offered me the contract:
"These are the laid-down rules;
Rule Number One: You are not allowed to fall in love with me.
Rule Number Two: You are not allowed to kiss or hug me, except if I want to, just to convince my father, which I wish will never happen." He didn't bother to hide the disgust on his face when he made the last statement.
"Rule Number Three: No one is allowed to know about this contract, not even my brother. This is strictly between I, you, and my P.A. Is that clear?"
I nodded nervously, wondering if it was the right decision as I clutched my stomach.
This guy was unbelievable, and so full of himself, like he rules the world, and could destroy it with the snap of his finger.
"You will get paid monthly as long as we don't get caught, for a year. If you want to ever opt out from this, get ready to pay me back." He said firmly.
How on earth am I going to survive with this menace for 365 days? I inhaled deeply, and forced a smile at him.
"I should get back to my boss, Daniel". His face twisted into a frown when I mentioned his brother's name. No one needed to tell me, that they were sworn enemies who will forever hate each other until one step downs, or preferable, dies.

Chapter: CHAPTER SIXTYIn the dimly lit garage, Carl swung open the passenger door, his eyes sparkling with excitement. I felt a rush of adrenaline as he urged me to get in, his words tumbling out in a persuasive whisper. My heart raced like a wild animal, making it hard to catch my breath. I fired questions at him, but he just smiled at me, his silence only adding to the mystery. He slid into the driver's seat, and turned the key in the ignition. The engine roared to life, and we sped off into the darkness, the tires screeching in protest. The only sound was the soft hum of the engine and the crunch of gravel beneath the wheels, leaving a trail of dust in our wake.As we drove, I glanced at the road, my mind racing with thoughts about my boss's schedule. "I have to go out with my boss by 10 PM. Are we going to be back before then?" I asked, my voice almost lost in the breeze of the night. Carl's smile grew wider, his eyes glinting with mischief. "You won't be back today," he responded, his voice low and hu

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY-NINECARL AND MR. WILLIAMS Carl meets with his father in his room. Mr. Williams' face was etched with a deep frown as Carl explained the situation of Khloe mum's illness. "She's too sick to meet with you, unless you're willing to visit her in the hospital," Carl said, knowing full well that his father would not agree to the suggestion. One thing, he and his dad had in common was the strong aversion to hospitals, the antiseptic smell and sterile atmosphere grating on their nerves. "What exactly is wrong with her?" Mr. Williams asked, his eyes peering out from behind his glasses, his voice laced with concern."She has a heart problem, and I think a kidney problem too." Carl responded."She is your future wife's mother, why don't you just fly her to the best surgeons." His father suggested."Yes, you are right. I would be discussing this with Khloe today." Carl responded. Mr. Williams still had no idea that his son's girlfriend actually works in his house, and under his payroll. Ca

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHTMR. WILLIAMS P.O.VI stood before the sleek, silver vault in my suave, dimly lit bedroom. The soft, golden light of the bedside lamp cast a warm glow on the simple, yet elegant document that lay before me. It was a contract, one that had bound me to a promise I made years ago. I was dressed in a comfortable, yet stylish outfit - a crisp, white linen shirt, paired with dark pants, and a pair of my favorite slides. As I gazed at the document, my mind wandered back to the happy memories of my wife. Her bright, radiant smile and infectious laughter filled my thoughts. We were once so happy, so full of life and love. But then, something changed. A secret, one that I had kept hidden for so long, began to tear us apart.I shut the vault, and made my way to the bed, collapsing onto the soft, feathered duvet. My eyes closed, and my mind drifted back to the past, to the moments that had led me to this point. The memories came flooding back, like a bittersweet tidal wave, crashing against the s

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVENDANIEL'S P.O.V I realized that caution was crucial in my quest to outdo my brother, as Carl seemed to be gaining the upper hand. I needed to tread carefully to avoid raising suspicions and refrain from confrontations with my brother, opting instead for a more subtle approach. I reached for my phone and sent a discreet message to Nate, requesting a meeting outside the house at 12 P.M. She vehemently agreed to the meeting without telling me how her boss might need her to be around. Nate's sudden cooperation with me was equally unsettling but then, I wasn't going to win this fight without her. As I sat at RESTON Restaurant, my eyes fixed on my watch, mesmerized by the ticking seconds and minutes creeping towards our appointed hour. Time seemed to slow, and I felt like a predator waiting for the perfect moment to strike. And then, without warning, Nate appeared before me, her presence announced only by the soft creak of the chair as she sat down. Her sudden arrival caught me off guard,

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY-SIXKHLOE'S P.O.VI knew sneaking out of the mansion without my boss's permission was a grave mistake, but my mother's dire condition had left me no choice. I had to see her, and Carl had equally given me the courage to do so. I didn't even get a chance to speak with her, since she was asleep through out my stay in the hospital. But then, Carl's unexpected kindness had been a balm to my soul. He'd not only driven me to the hospital, but also taken Aunt Kim out, giving her a little opportunity to breathe in fresh air. Her smile when they returned was so beautiful, and I felt a pang of gratitude towards Carl that sent shivers down my spine. The flutter in my chest, the longing to be near him, it all came flooding back.Yet, my thoughts soon snapped back to my boss, who I knew would obviously still be pissed at me. I needed to face him now, to apologize and beg for mercy. My heart raced at the uncertainty of meeting him this morning - would I get fired, or perhaps receive more slaps on my f

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVEAs I sat on the ground, with my hand on my face, the headlights of Carl's car illuminated the dark driveway. He leapt out of the vehicle, his long strides devouring the distance between us. His face was a picture of fury, his eyes blazing like embers. "Don't tell me Daniel did this to you!!" he thundered, his voice like a crack of lightning that shook the air. "Where is Daniel?!!!!"I gestured weakly towards the club's back door, and Carl seemed to expand with rage, his chest heaving like a bellows. He looked like a knight ready to charge into battle, but I stopped him with a frail hand, my voice barely above a whisper, as I groaned in pain, "Please, Carl, just take me home."The anger in his eyes still simmered, like he was about to bring the whole world down. But as our gazes met, the anger eventually gave way to a softness I'd never seen before. He scooped me up from the ground with a tender strength, like I weighed nothing. He settled me into the back seat. Then, he rounded the ca
