A key. But a key to what?

Suddenly, an absurd idea flashes across my mind as I gasp, “You are not asking me to move in with you, are you?!!”

He gulps and sits up straighter. I haven’t seen him this nervous before.

“Yeah, that’s what I’m doing,” he smiles awkwardly. “But honestly, this isn’t the reaction I was looking for.”

I sit there still, my mind completely blank.

He is asking me to move in with him? But we are only 18! And, of course, he isn’t like normal students since he has his own house and everything, but regardless, we are still too young to make such huge commitment!

I am the only one to think that moving-in is a huge, huge step for a couple?

Amidst the silence, he leans over and grabs my hands, “OK now you are scaring me a little. You make it seems like that I’m holding a gun to your head and forcing you to jump off a cliff.”

I force out a smile, “been there before.”

“Just tell me your real thoughts. It wouldn’t be the first time you rejected me, and I think I can take the

    I agree to move in together with Eason, but we haven’t really nailed down the details yet. At first, I thought I would be moving into his penthouse, but later he told me that we were going to get a new apartment.“But why? Your penthouse is well furnished and it’s not very far from school,” I ask confused.He shrugs, “I’ve been living in that apartment for almost three years. It’s about time to make some changes. I want a brand-new start with you in a brand-new place.”He speaks like tossing away some old clothes.I simply can’t understand his lavish lifestyle.“You seem worried babe. What’s the matter?” he studies my face and asks.I sigh, “I’m simply worried that mom and Mr. Ramirez will find out about this if we make such a fuss about moving…and plus, what about the cost?”I know it’s probably stupid to worry about money now since I’m dating the billionaire’s son. But I don’t want the beginning of our relationship to be an unequal one.His face is full of surprises when he heard me

    Hearing his voice, Ms. Dave frowns as a quick look of awkwardness comes into her eyes. I suddenly feel a burst of courage, so I go answer the door before she gives me a permission.And there he is, standing outside the door and looking at me with a gentle smile on his face.“You OK?” he asks in a low voice, lifting his hand to touch those scratches on my face. I nod and step aside, making way for him to come in.Ms. Dave stands up from her seat and says in a cold voice, “Mr. Ramirez, I don’t see why you should come in here. Please wait outside till—”“Till you blame everything on my sister and get her suspended? I don’t think so.”He walks directly pass Ms. Dave’s table and takes his seat beside me. He is totally ignoring Valerie. I notice that Valerie’s face is twisting with anger and disbelief, which gives me an immense sense of pleasure.“Carry on please?” Eason looks round the room.Ms. Dave takes in a deep breath and sits down with an icy face. She is probably weighing the situat

    Jenna’s POV“Give it back to me, you asshole!” I yell at James, who has taken my phone away from me.“Fuck! You texted her? What did you say?” his thumb scrolls down my phone screen as quickly as possible.“The truth!” I bark. “The truth she should have known a long time ago!! Now give it back you filthy, disgusting liar!”I rush toward him trying to snatch my phone back, but he quickly dodges me again. Before I can reach him, he has found my text message to Natalia.“Oh, thank god you haven’t told her anything specific,” he heaves a long sigh, apparently relieved.I can’t believe how shameless he is.“You should be ashamed of yourselves! Both of you! Eason is a pure devil to plot against her like this and you are no less! How can you help her to hurt an innocent girl’s heart?! Are your hearts made of stones??” I roar.An hour ago, when James was in the shower, I took his phone and checked his messages with Eason. I’ve always sensed that something is wrong with that dude. And their me

    The next morning, I slowly wake up in his arms. He is already awake. I catch him staring at me when I open my eyes.“…why are you staring?” I ask sleepily. “What’s on my face?”He holds me tighter in his arms and whispers, “nothing…I just can’t get enough you. I can do this all day—watching you sleep.”“Getting a little creepy here I think,” I sit up and stretch my back. “Today is Saturday. Do you have any plans?”He sits up with me, “So I was thinking…maybe we can go get some new furniture? You can redecorate a little.”The idea of decorating my first home definitely seems interesting. So I immediately jump on board.Since we are trying a simpler way of life now, I thought he would take me to IKEA or Target. But instead, he ends up driving me to a fancy mall with all those luxury designer brands.When the sales lady welcomes us into the VIP lounge again, I whisper to Eason, “I thought we are buying furniture. What are we doing here?”“They have house products here. And all decoration

    Natalia’s POVI open my mouth, but no words come out of it except a shaky sob.He seems to realize something. The next second, his anxious voice comes out of the speaker again, “Nat whatever you heard, don’t make any rush decisions! Please come back to me and let me explain! Just—please, please don’t go.”He is begging me. I‘ve never heard of him begging to anyone before.But he deserves this.I take in a deep breath as tears blur my vision. Then I ask him between gritted teeth, “…is it true?”He growls lowly, “God what have you heard! I can explain everything—”“Just fucking answer my question!” I half-cry and half-scream. “Just do this for me…just stop lying to me for this one time!! Is it…is it true?”He lapses into silence. I hold the phone and press it tightly against my ear. I can hear his restrained and shallow breathing on the other side of the phone, and it makes my heart tremble.I can’t help but hope that he would deny it. And everything is just a bad dream. So that I can s

    Eason’s POVI march into dad’s study. He is already there waiting for me.I used to dread this place. Whenever I made a mistake as a boy, he would ask the butler to bring me in here and sit me down for a long lecture. He had to make sure I knew that I wasn’t good enough to be the Ramirez’s heir.But now that I’m old enough, I’ve learnt not to give a shit about how he thinks of me.“Sit,” my father nods at me as I take my seat in front of me across the table. “Your security team reported some unusual activities to me today. I think I have to ask you the reason.”I lean back on the chair and raise my eyebrows at him, “My bodyguard snitched behind my back? How unprofessional.”A faint smile appears on his lips, “You can fire him if you like. But the new guy will still report to me. I can assure you that.”My face tightens out of my control. I know that’s a warning. He is telling me that I still don’t have any real controls over the family.“So? The reason?”I snort, “I was looking for so

    Fate really is playing me like a puppet.I just got rid of one stepbrother only a day ago and it throws another one right back at me.But I guess…the new one seems much better than the old one.Embarrassed, I quickly apologize for making a big fuss earlier. But Liam doesn’t seem to mind that at all, “I should be the one to say sorry. I thought your dad had already told you about me and I just couldn’t resist the temptation to see the surprise on your face.”I let out an awkward laugh, “I didn’t know dad’s girlfriend—I mean your mom—has a son.”“Really? You dad didn’t mention a word about me? I thought he was so fond of me. Well, that hurts,” he clenches his chest and pretends to be shot in the heart. “Ouch.”Jenna has a big stupid grin on her face. She turns to me and mouths me again: HOT!I sigh internally. My other stepbrother is also very hot, but we all know how that turned out.“So why were you in the airport?” Jenna asks him. “You weren’t there to pick us up no?”“Not really. I

    Even Eason being here would be less of a surprise for me. Mr. Ramirez needs to talk to me? But about what? What could possibly bring him from the east coast to the west? I swallow hard and step aside, whispering under my breath, “Please come in.” Mr. Ramirez makes his way through the door and then nods at Liam, who still seems very confused at the moment. “Umm Nat? Who is this again?” Liam asks me with a frown. Right at this moment, dad and Hallie follow us out of the dining room. Dad freezes the moment he lays eyes on Mr. Ramirez—of course he recognizes his ex-wife’s current husband. “Sorry for intruding,” Mr. Ramirez says calmly, his eyes glancing around the room. “I just need a moment with Natalia.” “What? Why?” Dad takes an instinctive step forward and snaps. “Did—did something happen to Alicia?” “Oh no, it’s nothing like that. Nothing urgent. I really just need 5 minutes alone with Natalia,” Mr. Ramirez says. I’m slightly relieved hearing that mom is ok, but it makes me e

    A large group of people escort me downstairs. Because it is absolutely impossible to move in this dress by myself. The delicate lace of my gown sweeps along the polished wooden steps. I must move very slowly and carefully to avoid any mishaps. I grip the banister, my heart pounding with a mix of excitement and nerves.At the bottom of the staircase, servants hold open the grand double doors leading to the garden.The scent of fresh flowers wafts in, mingling with the warm early summer breeze. I take a deep breath, letting myself savor this magical moment.And there my dad is, tall and dignified, dressed in his sharpest suit, waiting for me just by the doors.“Dad.” I whisper, reaching out to hold his hand.He turns, his eyes softening as they meet mine. “Nat, you look absolutely—”“Stunning.” I smile, “I know. Mom told me the same thing earlier in tears.”Then I am shocked to find that there are tears gleaming in his eyes as well.My dad is never a man of emotions. This is literally th

    The next morning, I am woken up by the early sunlight and a series of noises.Still half-asleep, I groan and rub my eyes, frustrated.What is going on…Who is out there screaming and yelling…Somebody is trying to get some sleep here…Then something snaps me back to reality like a whip—Fuck! Today is my wedding day!!!Then I hear my mom’s shrieking in the living room, “Is she still asleep? She should be up half an hour ago!”“She is probably in the bathroom. Let me go check on her, Mrs. Ramirez.” That is Jenna’s voice.“Oh thank you darling. You are a life savor…”Light footsteps approach the bedroom door. I only have one quick second to grab the sheet and cover up my naked body before the door flies open.“Morning Nat—OMG, you ARE still in bed!”“…I couldn’t sleep last night.” I swallow, pretending to be calm.Meanwhile, I quickly scan the room—Good, Eason is gone already. I can’t imagine what kind of temper tantrum mom would throw if she finds out that we spent the night together.“R

    Today is the last night before my big day tomorrow.Everything is under control. All the guests have checked into the mansion already. Through the window on the 5th floor, where my bridal suite is located, I can see workers working on the final decoration of the wedding venue in the garden.Everything is on the right track. Except for one.My mom.“Natalia, have you seen the seating chart?!”I stand in the center of preparation room, seeing my mom bustles around with a fervor that is both impressive and exhausting.Dresses hang from every available hook, shoes and accessories are scattered across the floor, and my mother’s meticulous lists cover the desk. The room buzzes with pre-wedding chaos, a stark contrast to the calm I crave.I sigh, “Mom calm down…”“I can’t find the seating chart anywhere! And we need to make sure the caterer knows about Uncle Frank's shellfish allergy!”“Mom—”“And where the hell is your wedding planner!!!” mom raises her voice and cries, “We paid him 1000 buc

    Eason and Mr. Ramirez heard about what happened later that day.“Katherine?” Eason’s voice darkens immediately. “She is a fucking nobody. Her family went bankrupt. Their reputation stinks! How dare she fight you on this venue?”“And I hate it when people go behind my back and bother my family with things from work.” Mr. Ramirez says with a frown. “I will give my people a heads-up, telling them to cut off any connections with her and her husband immediately.”Looks like Rosa’s husband’s proposal will go down the drain even before it got a chance to be presented to Mr. Ramirez.It feels so great to be protected by your own family.Eason still seems mad, “I can’t believe anyone is still willing to marry Katherine! Don’t they know that this woman is crazy?”“Rosa’s family is new to the town,” mom says.Eason lets out a snort, his green eyes gleaming icily, “Maybe they will be interested in Katherine’s history.”I know what he is thinking.If he finds a way to leak Katherine’s history to Ro

    I stare at Katherine with shock.Seriously, I am the thief?!She is the one who tried to steal Eason’s inheritance!She doesn’t look at all like the sweet and kind girl I first met, the one who exuded elegance.Now she is sharp and bitter, but her expression gives away how weary she really is. Her cheeks are pale, and her hair is dull and split. It must have been a long time since she last visited the salon.The bankruptcy really taken a toll on her. She doesn’t need me to make her more miserable. She has taken care of that herself.“Mom, let’s go.” I give Katherine a look of disgust. “Don’t waste our time talking to her.”I grab my mom and try to walk around Katherine.But Katherine blocks our way again.“Why are you leaving? Are you afraid? Afraid of facing me?” her voice is sharp and shrill. “Do you know what people have been saying about you? You are a slut, Natalia! You steal other people’s fiancé because you can’t stand them living a happier and more wealthy life than you are! Lo

    I widen my eyes slightly in shock.That is the last thing that I expect.Honestly, where does that come from?“What letter?” my dad asks with a frown.“Oh, there is a letter that Eason wrote to Nat years ago, when they first met. He chose to do ask her out in the most traditional way—by putting it down on the paper. Don’t you think it would be so romantic and meaningful to read that letter on the wedding? You know, to commemorate the beginning of this relationship?”“What does the letter say?” Hallie asks curiously.“Well that is the main thig—none of us know, except for the two of them.”I let out a dry laugh.My mom doesn’t know about this but the letter actually means more than that. It not only marks the beginning of our love, but also the years-long prejudice and misunderstandings between us.It is literally the start of everything.I look over to Eason and want to see his reaction toward this.…He is blushing like a red ballon.I am so damn shock.Eason is the most barefaced, ego

    I am too stunned to say anything.“We are in Fiji? How??”The last thing I remember from yesterday is drifting into sleep in Eason’s arms. So did we take a flight after that? How come I didn’t have any memory of that?!“Did you drug me?” I eye him suspiciously.He laughs heartly, “I didn’t. It all thanks to your own magic potion. Two bottles of them.”I rub my forehead embarrassedly. I was really hammered last night. I should have known that Eason was up to something to get me drunk.“So,” he smiles. “Do you like my surprise?”I stand on tiptoe to kiss him on the lips, “I love it.”Nothing is better than a getaway trip to Fiji after an exhausted month.Eason knows exactly what I need.The smile on his lips gets wider as he says, “Well, wait till you see this.”He holds my hand and leads me down the stairs, through the villa’s back yard and out to the beach.The sand is white and warm. The ocean is turquoise-blue. And there is a long table set on the beach, surrounded by roses and lilie

And he was eager to share the duties.He broke a glass the first time he did the dishes, since—apparently—someone like him has never washed anything in his entire life.But he is a quick learner.Now every time I come back to our apartment, the laundries are done, the sheets are changed and all the dishes are nice and clean.I felt bad that he needed to find time after work to do those chores when he could easily hire someone to do
