Laura, a popular model, had actually never dated anyone her whole life. After witnessing her friend almost die because of domestic violence, she became even more resistant to letting herself get herself into one. After spending five years abroad to help her friend recover, she found herself back in her home country, not knowing that the single status she had managed to maintain all her life was about to be changed. James had a busy schedule over the past few months and was intending to use his younger brother's birthday party as an opportunity for him to relax. Who knew that he would end up picking up an innocent vixen?

Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Ready For The Party.

Laura combed her bright red hair and tied it up into a high ponytail. It had been a very long time since she went out to have fun. She felt like jumping around as she got ready, from how she was excited to go. After living with Rachel over the past five years, she barely went out, as her friend's introverted nature influenced her.

Seeing that she now looked good, she picked up her things and went to the living room where Rachel was waiting for her. Laura looked at her friend's outfit and sighed in her heart. She understood why she wore such modest clothes, but whenever she saw them, she couldn't help but think that it was too unfortunate.

"You are ready, right? Nancy told me they have been waiting for the past fifteen minutes," Rachel said to her, resisting the urge to lecture her friend.

"I'm done," Laura said and smiled guiltily.

"Let's go then. You looked fine before. Why did you have to change your clothes again?" Rachel said as she gathered her things, ready to go.

"Ah! Wait! I forgot to pack my swimsuit," Laura said and ran back to her room. Rachel looked at the door that slammed shut behind Laura and grit her teeth in annoyance.

"Then you can come downstairs yourself," Rachel said and left the hotel room. She mumbled in annoyance the whole way down. Everyone ended up waiting for another fifteen minutes before Laura went downstairs.

When the three other girls saw that she had finally appeared, they were all visibly relieved. When Laura got in the car and started excitedly telling everyone how happy she was about seeing them again, Rachel asked David who was driving them to go first. She didn't know when Laura will say she had forgotten something and insisted on going back to the hotel.

They had all been invited to their friend's boyfriend's birthday, and he was generous enough to find someone to drive them there and accommodate them overnight. They were all excited and nervous about who was going to be there. It was obvious that the most excited person was Laura. It had been so long since she had looked forward to doing anything or meeting anyone, so it was inevitable.

She had also heard that her friend Jen's boyfriend's brothers were also going to be attending the event. Seeing how handsome and attractive the boyfriend was, she was looking forward to seeing his brothers. Even if they were a bit less attractive, she was certain that they wouldn't be ugly.

Nancy, who had been talkative the last time they met, was not as talkative today and the girls in the back observed how she would keep glancing at the man who was driving the car. Laura finally took notice of him because of this.

She looked at him through the rearview mirror and almost couldn't contain the surprise she was feeling. Who has such a handsome man as a driver? Sir, do you want to change your life? I can help you become a popular model, she thought to herself unabashedly.

She looked at Nancy and the way she was currently staring at him in a daze and felt a bit bad for this new friend she had just met. It looked like she was already interested in him, but he hadn't said a word since they got in the car.

As they all chatted about everything and nothing, Nancy, who was still staring at David, was startled out of her daze when her phone rang. David was also not expecting her phone to ring, so he turned to look in her direction before keeping his eyes on the road. The people in the back silently watched their interaction with amusement, but the people involved were completely unaware.

"Hello?" Nancy said into her phone without even checking who it was that called her.

"Hi! Have you all arrived already?" Jen, who was on the other side, asked. She had gone to have lunch with her boyfriend and his family for his birthday and it looked like they had just finished.

"No, we've been on the road for ninety minutes," Nancy said after checking the time and putting the call on speaker so everyone could hear what was going on.

"They should have arrived then," a male voice said from the other side.

"Is that our brother-in-law? Happy birthday!" Laura said from the back seat and everyone joined in on the fun, with the exception of the driver.

"Hehehe, thank you," Lucas responded and became silent.

"We aren't there yet because Laura took forever to get ready," Nancy said with some annoyance. Laura did not argue because she knew that she was the reason they were going to be late in the first place.

"It's no issue, we'll probably arrive at around the same time," Jen said with a laugh.

"Okay, then we'll see you later," Nancy said, and all the girls said goodbye before the call ended.

"Why do I feel like since Jen is dating, she doesn't want the surrounding people to be single?" Laura asked seriously as she pointedly looked at Nancy, who was still stealing looks at their driver.

"I wouldn't be surprised," Rachel mumbled to herself. She did not take her friend's words seriously at all. Relationships? She had no time or energy to invest in such a useless thing!

"I think so too," Leanna said as she stared outside the window. With these comments, silence gradually spread in the car.

Laura pulled her phone out of her purse and went through her social media. As a popular model, she always had to pay attention to what was happening online. Although she was signed to work with Rachel's company, she still managed to gather a large crowd of fans, and her popularity was much higher than other models who were busy working with other brands. She had to admit that she was only so popular because of her looks, and she did not feel bad about it.

"Oh? Looks like we've arrived," Nancy said from the front seat, drawing the girls' attention. Laura could feel her mouth drop, but she couldn't bring herself to close it. When they went through the large gate, she saw that there were some villas built in the area. There was quite some distance between them and they all looked quite luxurious.

What stood out the most, however, was the large castle-like mansion in front of them. She knew that her friend managed to get herself a billionaire boyfriend. The house in front of them showed just how much money the owner had.

"This is where the party will be held," David said, startling the girls. It was the first time he spoke beside from when he greeted them when they were getting in the car.

"I thought it was a hotel," Nancy said as she too was also in awe of what was in front of them.

"No, we built it," David said, referring to himself and his group of friends. The excitement in the car suddenly turned into silence. Laura took another look at David. It looked like the 'driver' wasn't really a driver.

Chapter 2: Meeting With The Others.
There were a few cars driving in front of them and a couple of them following them from behind. They soon arrived in front of the house and parked their car with everyone else. The place looked even more magnificent up close. Laura, who felt suffocated from being confined to the car for too long, was the first one to get off. She got off to the sight of Lucas opening the door for her friend, who was still in the car. She watched with fascination as the two talked briefly and her friend Jen suddenly smacked his chest and the guy laughed happily before helping her out of the car. Whenever she saw such interactions, she would feel envious of couples. But whenever these thoughts popped up, she remembered how Rachel stayed in the ICU because of how hurt she had been after being assaulted by her boyfriend and she would come back to her senses. "You girls are here!" Jen said and walked towards Laura and the others, with Lucas following behind her. They all greeted Jen, who looked very exc

Chapter 3: Hostile?
Ethan, who had burst out of the house earlier, became much calmer when he saw so many faces he did not recognise. He ended up drawing everyone’s attention, including Laura, because of the fact that he was also good looking. “Your boyfriend has so many good-looking friends,” Laura said as she looked at Ethan, who had been shyly introducing himself. “That’s why I called you all here,” Jen said and stepped forward to say hi to him. There had been an incident that happened a while ago and she knew to be grateful since he had helped her resolve it. Laura also stepped forward with her friend and greeted the new handsome man that appeared. If she did not know that it was her ‘brother-in-law’s’ birthday, she might have thought they were all gathered there for blind dates. Ethan didn’t keep them for long and soon they were in the house, making their way to Lucas’s wing. Lucas showed them to their rooms and quickly ran off with his girlfriend. Seeing how happy her friend was, Laura couldn’t

Chapter 4: Falling On Him
Laura went back to her room and changed into her white two-piece bikini. She had taken a twenty-minute walk to ride horses and didn't even get on one. Also, with how her emotions were all over the place, she wanted to cool off, so she planned on going for a swim. She undid her hair and put on a sheer white shirt to give her a sense of modesty before leaving her room and going downstairs. As she searched for the pool, she came across one of the maids that were running errands and stopped her to ask for directions. After knowing the general area of where the outdoor pool was, she leisurely made her way there as she carefully observed the features of the house. When she reached the exit, she saw Jen and her boyfriend returning. Not wanting to interrupt them, she opted for another exit. When she walked into the pool area, the place was completely deserted, with the exception of one person who was relaxing on one of the lounge chairs in the shade. Looking at how an umbrella was added, ev

Chapter 5: Disappointed.
James opened the small fridge that was in the cabinet next to him and pulled out a bottle of wine. Before turning to study her. "So what do you do?" James asked, curious about what she does to make a living. "I'm a model, exclusively for Rock Jewelries," Laura said in response to James's question. She watched the way he opened the wine bottle in a daze. "Oh? What agency are you with?" James asked, suddenly curious. "I don't have an agency," Laura said with a smile as she watched the way he was searching for a glass to use. "Do want some?" James asked her, and Laura shook her head. It looked like he wanted to have some, and she couldn't bear to take that away from him. "You sure?" James asked again, and Laura nodded. She was happy just looking at him. She didn't need to drink wine. She watched as he took a sip of the wine straight from the bottle and unconsciously swallowed her saliva when she saw his wine-stained lips. James licked the wine that was left on his lips and smiled w

Chapter 6: Her First Time.
"They are gone," James said to Laura, who still had her head buried in his chest. "They'll probably come back," Laura said, reluctant to move away now that she was so close. She was also embarrassed because she was the one who wanted to kiss him but forgot that she had no experience in these matters. She felt like she made a fool of herself. "They won't return," James said and easily lifted her so she sat down instead of lying on top of him. Laura looked at James, who had his grey eyes on her and looked away in embarrassment. "Maybe I'm a bit drunk?" Laura said with some hesitation, and James looked at her in disbelief. "You said you weren't drunk," James said to her, feeling tempted to flick her forehead. "When did I say I wasn't drunk?" Laura asked him and James, who tried to recall what happened when he asked her if she was drunk, became silent. "I think I'm the one that's drunk," James said as he bent over to pick up the opener he had dropped earlier and resumed his action of

Chapter 7: Starting The Evening.
Two hours later, Laura was woken up by her alarm. It was still bright outside when she went to sleep, but it was already evening and the sun was setting. She squinted as she looked at the red sky through the floor to ceiling glass window as she sobered up from sleep. She stayed on her bed and dazedly watched the sunset and only got up when it got darker. She stretched and yawned as she went to the bathroom to freshen up so that she could start getting ready for the party. Although she was feeling more awake, her mind was still groggy from sleep. With thoughts of getting herself out of her funk. Laura took a light blanket and went to the empty living area outside her room. She stopped by the small bar area and poured herself a drink and went to on the sofa that was facing the large screen tv. She turned it on and started watching a movie absent-mindedly while drinking. As she did this, she went through all the things she packed and thought about what she was going to wear. She knew

Chapter 8: James' Good Mood.
Laura sat down at the long table and had dinner with her girlfriends. She hadn’t realised that she had not eaten all day until it was pointed out by her friend Jen, who had found the group of them well on their way to getting drunk. Now that she was eating something, she was feeling much better. But a few minutes ago, James had walked onto the terrace with Brian and Laura kept following him with her eyes the whole time. The two had made eye contact a few times already, but Laura was not shy enough to look away, so even when their lines of sight clashed, the two of them would look at each other briefly before James would knowingly smile at her and continue doing his own thing. She continued to watch him even then. The dark hair that fell to his shoulders, the open shirt that revealed his toned body. The defined pecs and abs and the dark tattoo on his side would peek out once in a while. The way he would laugh easily when someone would make a joke and the way his Adam’s apple would r

Chapter 9: Watch Carefully And Learn.
“Aaah!” Laura screamed in surprise when James unexpectedly lifted her up for scoring another goal for their team. The surrounding cheers suddenly turned into laughter in the face of her panicked expression. Even James, who was carrying her, couldn’t help but laugh as he let her down. Laura, who was hugging James’s neck, slid down his body until her feet touched the bottom of the pool. It was a moment where Laura could feel his hard and firm body and James could feel her softness, especially with the way her chest pressed against him when she continued to hang on to his neck. “Aren’t you going to release me?” James asked Laura, who was still hanging off of him. “Oh, sorry,” Laura said and reluctantly let him go and stepped back. James smiled when he saw how reluctant she looked and almost pat her head. Fortunately, he caught himself earlier. “Okay, you lovebirds, let’s continue with the game,” Jason said from the other side of the net after he came back from retrieving the ball and

Chapter 10: After The Party.
“So, do you have a girlfriend?” Laura asked James, who was trying to steady her, so she didn’t fall off his lap. “Don’t you think it’s too late to ask me that after everything you’ve done today?” James asked with a raised eyebrow. “Well, do you?” Laura continued to ask. “I don’t,” James answered, wondering where she wanted to take this conversation. “Wife?” she asked, realising that he may have one. “I’m not married either,” James answered with a chuckle. “Then what do you think of me?” Laura asked him. “Hm? What about you?” James asked, wanting her to be more clear. “Since we are both single…” Laura said and trailed off, not knowing how to explain herself. It was like she realised that this wasn’t going to work if she was the only one interested. “Are propositioning me?” James asked, feeling mildly surprised. When Laura heard him she looked away, feeling both nervous and regretful. “It’s the first time you are avoiding my gaze since we met,” James said with a smile. “I’m no
