Tyrone pulled his hand out of Heather's skirt and cleaned his fingers with a tissue while looking at her with a half-smile.He had a scorching look in his eyes, which made Heather tremble. She bit her lip and glared at him in an accusing manner. "You promised not to touch me this week.""Did I?" Tyrone asked righteously.Her glare seemed fierce, but those teary eyes had no murderous intent at all. Instead, they were quite charming.Teasing her actually made him even more uncomfortable.Tyrone's gaze darkened. He took her soft hand in his large ones before saying in a deep, hoarse voice, "Help me, then I'll let you go tonight, okay?"The implication in his eyes was obvious.The hardness she felt under her hand made Heather's cheeks flush. Just then, her phone suddenly rang. It was an incoming call from an unfamiliar number."I have a call. It might be work-related. I'll take my leave now."Heather seized the opportunity as if it were her lifeline. She quickly grabbed her bag, o
They rode the buggy toward the rest area.Caleb said that Tyrone was in a meeting and it wouldn't be proper for her to disturb him, so she could only wait there.Heather looked toward the golf course, where she saw several people walking slowly with golf clubs on the wide green lawn.With just one glance, she spotted two men with similar height engaging in conversation. Her gaze fell on the man in white athleisurewear—Tyrone.From that distance, she couldn't see his face clearly, but his outstanding presence made him stand out in the crowd. There were about seven to eight people in the group, including two to three women. Anna was walking beside Tyrone when she suddenly staggered and looked like she was about to fall. It was then that Tyrone, who was standing beside her, reached out to catch her. They exchanged some words before Tyrone lifted her and walked toward the rest area."Ms. Sutton, it seems like Ms. Jenkins twisted her foot, right?" Caleb seemed to be explaining on beh
Tyrone wasn't angry. Instead, he raised his thin lips with interest.No woman had dared to argue with him before. But Heather's actions didn't displease him. Instead, it amused him.His casual attitude ignited a fire in Heather's heart. "Tyrone Elkin, Whitney has no grudges against you. She's innocent! Why would you want to harm her?"She was like a lioness with her fur ruffled, which only amused Tyrone further. He reached out to ruffle her hair, making her embarrassed suddenly, and she quickly turned her head to avoid his touch.Tyrone's large hand froze in mid-air and squinted slightly. Then, he suddenly ruffled her hair forcefully. The domineering action disheveled her hair. Heather was pressed against the wall by Tyrone, so she couldn't escape.He was too overbearing and always had to get what he wanted, even in trivial matters like ruffling her hair."I've said it before. I wasn't the one who wanted to harm her. You're the one deciding her fate."After he had enough, Tyro
Caleb quickly found out the whereabouts of Macey and Whitney.Two hours ago, someone had entered the hospital and taken the two to a warehouse in the suburbs. People had been sent to rescue them. Whitney had been frightened and lost consciousness, while Macey had been injured. They were on their way back to the hospital."Did you find out who did it?" Tyrone asked expressionlessly."Mr. Elkin, the kidnappers escaped, and our people were busy rescuing the women. So, we haven't found out the kidnappers' background yet," Caleb responded respectfully.Tyrone's voice was very cold when he said, "You are becoming more inefficient lately!"Although Caleb had located Macey and Whitney in such a short time, Tyrone wasn't satisfied, making Caleb feel uneasy."Mr. Elkin, we will speed up the investigation!""I don't care how you do it. Find them!"Tyrone hung up the phone and stared at Heather with a dark expression. "They've been found. Go to the hospital!"With that, he walked out of
Caleb had classified these foods according to star ratings, with five stars being the worst. From the list he had sent, it was clear that Tyrone hated chitlins and strong-smelling foods. Heather looked at the long list, feeling speechless. To think that there are people who even dislike oranges and grapes. Tyrone was picky with his food, yet he didn't suffer from malnutrition. He even had a tall build. Rich people were tough to serve. After a while, Caleb sent over bags of ingredients, except for some costly vegetables. Heather sorted them out and put them in the refrigerator before she picked a few dishes to cook in the kitchen. "Oops!" Heather accidentally knocked over a bottle of barbecue sauce, and it stained her skirt.She frowned and quickly rinsed it with water, but the more she rinsed, the more the stain spread around her clothes, and the skirt got wet. It was impossible to clean it off. The sauce on her skirt made her smell like barbecue all over. The living
In the kitchen, Heather turned around to grab a soup bowl, only to suddenly see Tyrone standing not far away, startling her unexpectedly. "Mr. Elkin, are you done with your work?" Heather put down the ladle and awkwardly tugged at the hem of her shirt. "Sorry. My skirt got dirty, so I had to borrow your clothes." Although it wasn't the first time she had worn his clothes, Heather still felt embarrassed. No matter how much she tugged at the hem of the shirt, it could only cover up to the middle of her thighs. Tyrone narrowed his eyes. He liked seeing her wearing his clothes, but at this moment, he wondered if she intended to eat with him dressed like that. Heather shifted uncomfortably under his gaze. She quickly changed the subject. "Dinner will be ready soon. Why don't you go to the dining room and wait?" Tyrone's gaze swept over her bare legs, and the image of those legs wrapped around his waist flashed through his mind. Without another word, he walked to the dining
Heather breathed a sigh of relief at this thought. She was fine as long as Tyrone wasn't involved. "From now on, you'll live with me," Tyrone said. "Huh? Why?" Heather was a bit puzzled. Tyrone said calmly, "Those who attacked were just minions. There are people behind them. Since they know I intervened to save someone, they will surely be curious why I did it. "They may fear me, but if they find out that I saved those women because of you, they might not hesitate to target you. You'll be safe by my side, okay?" Heather hadn't thought of that. She stared blankly at the cold, handsome man before her. She was overwhelmed with emotions at the thought that he was worried for her safety. Heather bit her lip. "It won't come to that, right?" She didn't want to move in. It would give others the wrong idea if she and Tyrone lived together. It would seem like cohabitation. Tyrone let out a cold laugh, his icy voice firm. "Don't be such a fool to test your chances. It's settle
When Heather came to her senses again, she found herself in bed with Tyrone's body pressing down against her, making it impossible for her to escape. "Mr. Elkin!" He kissed her again, and Heather suddenly turned away, breathing heavily. Her thick eyelashes trembled violently. "You can't force me. It isn't time yet." Tyrone looked down at her with a dark, unreadable gaze. In fact, every time this happened, Heather was a little afraid of Tyrone. First, because at these times, she was no match for Tyrone. Second, because he made her hurt in bed. It was pleasurable at first, but later, all she felt was pain. No matter how much she hurt, Tyrone wouldn't let her go, so her memory of these encounters was just pain.Her fear had reached its limits. She had a burst of courage and turned to meet Tyrone's dark gaze. "Mr. Elkin, you should be a man of your word, right?" Tyrone stared at her with dark eyes and gritted coldly as he took her hand. "If you won't let me touch you, we
