In Love With You Chapter 13: His Foul Mouth
Kane saw the answer through my silence. His frown deepened."I might look like a coward in your eyes. But I don't need you to put yourself in danger because of me.""I am not putting myself in danger. I am not foolish enough to do that." I could not help but rebut."Then why did you choose to stay there? Just because of the reason that you are afraid to interrupt us, that I would lose this rare chance or this so-called opportunity, you rather stay with a pervert?""...What. Of course not.""But that's what happened." Kane clenched his jaw. "You lack self-awareness. You worried about everybody else but yourself. Are you physically strong like Layla to worry about others? You are very skinny, so very weak, you could not even struggle against that man. What help can you offer when you can't even help yourself?"My mouth opened but no voice came out.Yeah, I know I am very weak. Because of a mistake, my little strength could not fight against one man. As he said, what help can I offer whe
In Love With You Chapter 14: A bowl of chicken soup
"What the hell did you do that for?! Douchbag!-" My alarm clock woke me up.The first thing I felt was the stiffness in my neck. I slowly sat up straight and looked around with half-open eyes.The sun had already risen up, dispelling the fog and chilling coldness from yesterday night. I yawned as I finally found my phone under my sketch pad.I am currently in the art room and slept with my head on the desk.Perhaps I was tired from yesterday's event that I slept halfway through while drawing. After the party, Kane and I went home. Since I don't want to be a victim of his foul mouth I immediately left after I parked the car.However, as I lay in bed to forget all that happened and buried them in the back of my mind, my sleepiness could not come. I tried to sleep but this irksome feeling inside my heart was hard to dispel. To vent my anger, I went to the art room that only I used- and spent the whole night there. I looked at the three pages of my hard work yesterday night. None of th
In Love With You Chapter 15: 'Big incident' at the Party
When I heard a car's engine from the window, I immediately recognized its owner.It's Levi's car!I went out and waited for the group in the living room.Kane also came out of his room. He just come out of the shower and hasn't blown his hair dry. "It's Levi's car. Layla should be with him." He also recognized the loud sound of Levi's car.I nodded in response.Kane looked at me in surprise that I acknowledge him. He then lightly smiled. I could not help but roll my eyes.I really blame that bowl of chicken soup that bought my forgiveness so easily. Gabrielle also came out of her room. She changed into a new set of clothes. It was a rare occasion for her to wear decent clothes. Her beautiful features were enhanced with makeup.I rose my eyebrow in surprise.Was Gabrielle going on a date with Levi?Levi came in. Behind him was the tired Layla.Layla was still wearing the same party clothes she had yesterday night, but she was also wearing a brown man's jacket.Hold on. This jacket w
In Love With You Chapter 16: The awkward Father-Daughter relationship
Liam Pearson, Age 43, the current CEO of the Pearson Corporation, was the father of Levi and Layla Pearson.He was a tall man with dark hair and glassy eyes. He looked exactly like Levi. But unlike the gentle Levi who always has a gentle smile, this man had a solemn and cold expression. Nevertheless, Liam Pearson had a handsome face and a fit body. No one would know he was in his forties. He took care of himself well making him look like a man from his early thirties. That's why even though he was divorced twice and has two children, many women still wanted to climb into his bed.After all, not only his figure was good, he was wealthy and of high status. He was one of the founders of the Golden Empire- which my parents and the others joined to build.Mr. Pearson walked into the mansion with his assistant. His face was dark. His intimidating aura made me pause from going down. It was better not to face this man head-on who looked like he was ready to swallow anyone.Levi approached hi
In Love With You Chapter 17: My Friend's Debt
The punishment was heavy. However, Layla just kept a cold and unyielding expression. On the other hand, Levi was the most anxious. He stopped his father. "Dad. Layla is a college university student and needs allowances. If you take it away, how could she study?" Levi was also aware of the pit that Layla dug. Mr. Pearson glanced at his son and daughter with a firm gaze, "If she comes to me and promised that she would behave, then I would let her continue the exorbitant life she was enjoying like before." Layla just smirked. As if the number of loans she has that could make anyone dizzy was nothing, "You should have said that you would cut me off from the family tree in the beginning. It's not like I am relying on you or your money in the first place." Levi and Mr. Pearson's faces changed. The former was enraged while the latter was nervous about the situation that was unfolding. I was also anxious. I wanted to stop Layla from speaking. She was already in a deep pit, but she stil
In Love With You Chapter 18: Helping to Pay the Debt
"Why don't you just rob me directly!" I said loudly. "We already made a deal. You already bought it. You just need to wear them. At least once a month would do." "I haven't given you a single penny yet! I haven't agreed!" Layla blinked pitifully. "I am poor. You are also poor. But you decided to help this pitiful poor me and buy these clothes. If you plan to let them rot in your closet, then don't buy them. I can't force a tight budget person to squander their money." I was speechless for a moment due to Layla's shamelessness. Who was the one squandering their money and leaving branded clothes in her closet to rot?! Layla was calling the kettle black! "...Did you not realize that's what you've been doing until recently? You also let these clothes rot in your closet so why I could not?!" "I am wasting money while you are saving money! There's no way I would sell it to you if you won't use them!" "..." So she could waste money but I couldn't?! My face turned red because of i
In Love With You Chapter 19: To Earn Good Points
....By late afternoon, Layla had woken up and was in high spirits.After having her lunch and dinner, she went outside. She still has some energy to go outside. When I asked her if she was going to party without money, she flicked my forehead."I am a party goer before because I am rich. But now I am poor. So I am going outside to collect debts. I have a long list of people who owed me money anyway."Then I remembered the times when Layla splashed her money on her so-called friends and the so-called friends' friends. As a part of her rebellion-slash-wasting her father's money- she was throwing money everywhere and letting those people borrow from her regardless of the amount."Do you have IOUs or some contracts as proofs?" I asked.Layla rolled her eyes. "I am still clear-headed when they ripped me off. Not only do I have paper proofs, but I also have some recordings." She waved her phone at me. "Besides, even without these, I am confident I can get back my money. My fist could speak
In Love With You Chapter 20: Completely Lost
Kane doesn't understand that this situation was the best chance to show his good points. It's not that I want to sell my only best friend, but compared to other men taking this opportunity, it was better for Kane to get it. But he wanted to play incognito! Is he stupid?I really want to smack his head. It was alright for him to do this when there was no competition around, I would even applaud him. But with the presence of Eduardo, I don't think laying low would do him good. Who knows if that wolf Eduardo would start hunting Layla by giving her baits?Just recalling the scene where Layla arrived at the house wearing Eduardo's jacket made me have a premonition that something arises between the two. There's no way Eduardo won't let this opportunity pass and harbor deep connections with Layla."Fine, don't regret it in the end!" Kane just shrugged, "I am just helping her. There's no need for me to regret it."His lassitude response made me grit my teeth. This man doesn't know what he

In Love With You Chapter 148: Compensated Forever
After listening for an hour, I came to believe that Kane did really visit me in those times as he told me some of the things he was concerned with. It seemed that he bottled it all up. Kane pouted, "When I came to visit you, aside from the first few times, you don't look like you missed me. You are happy with them. Especially with that person named Hugh. You are being too close to him. Are you sure he doesn't have a crush on you? Whenever your group hang out, he was always there." "Because he is part of the group. Don't worry about Hugh, I think he has a crush on Lilac." "Your dormitory friend? But they looked like they hate each other." "Didn't we also start that way?" Kane chuckled, "Right. It only changed when you played Cupid." I could not help but smile at the memory. Wait.... I slapped Kane's arm. "You are changing the topic. I am still angry at you." Although I said that, there was no really no anger in my heart anymore. I just wanted to make it difficult for Kane for
In Love With You Chapter 147: Reunion
My consciousness started to stir as I felt someone wiping my face. The wet towel then wiped my neck, arms, and hands. Although I am already aware, my body was numb and I couldn't move. I wasn't in the mood to bother about it. The one who was wiping my hands and face was so gentle in his movements, that I slowly fell to sleep afterward.The grumbling in my stomach woke me up. But the dizziness made me groan.I felt a movement beside me. That person gently brushed the hair away from my face."Dizzy?" His gentle voice was familiar but the aching in my head made me muddle-headed to think bout it further.I muttered, "Head...hurts..."That person massaged my head and spoke in a low voice, "You should drink a hang-over medicine. Here...." That person's voice was low and magnetic. It calmed my heart immediately.With my eyes closed, the man lifted me up until I was able to sit up from the bed. The man grumbled as he helped me drink, "....Paul made me drink you again, right? That man never l
In Love With You Chapter 146: Breaking of the Golden Corp
When I disappeared that year, the Cruz family suddenly break ties with the Golden Corp. Then they began attacking the Mckenzie family. There was a huge case involved regarding the murder of Mrs. Cruz. When I first heard about it, I was shocked. According to Denise, the Mckenzie family was behind the accident which caused Mrs. Cruz and the unborn child to die. I put the pieces together and understood why Uncle Tristan used such methods to threaten us. Although it was a bit unfair that I am the one receiving the scare of his threats, I still felt bad about it. It turned out that the Mckenzie was more disgusting than I thought. I don't want to admit that I came from that family. My parents were actually the person who caused so much pain to Kane's family. After knowing the truth, my anger towards Uncle Tristan and Kane dissipated a lot. I had become more obedient as a hostage which in return, Uncle Tristan gave me a bit more freedom. He allowed me to socialize here and let me meet m
In Love With You Chapter 145: Three Years Later
Three years later.... Many friends and families of the graduates came to attend the graduation. I have become one of the elite students who graduated with flying colors. I looked around the hall looking for familiar figures. "Stella Mary, congratulations." My classmate, Hugh, with a thick Russian accent, came to congratulate me. He was one of the friends I made here at the university. "Thanks, Hugh. Did your family come?" "They will arrive later. You know how my family always comes late." I laughed at Hugh's answer. "Stella Mary! Congratulations! I know you will come out on top of your course!" One of my dorm mates, Jamie, hugged me. She put the flowers she brought into my hands. "Hey, don't huggle Stella on your own. My turn." Lilac, who came after Jamie, pushed the latter away and hugged me. Jamie and Lilac were both of my dorm mates for three years. We have become friends since then. It's been three years since I stayed at the university. I did not expect I would stay
In Love With You Chapter 144: Separation
Snow was falling. As far as my eyes can see, the whole world was covered in a white blanket. Just where the heck am I? Am I in the north pole? I was unconscious the whole time. When I woke up, I was already in this small villa where snow was constantly falling. I bet I am in another country. Because there was no way it was snowing in the middle of summer. And the mountain of snow outside the window just tells me that I am in a cold country where snow was falling for a long time now. I hugged the thick overcoat and felt saddened by the fact that I am a hostage. "Young Miss. The adviser is here." Adviser? I moved my wheelchair and went to the study room. Fortunately, these people did not mistreat me even though my status was a hostage. They provided me with everything I need like food and clothing. But I couldn't get my phone or tablet back. Any kind of communication was cut off. The only people who were allowed to talk to me were these guards. Because I know that it was Uncle Tr
In Love With You Chapter 143: Murdered
Kane's eyes were bloodshot. "It is you who said to me that I should love only one woman who moved my heart. And it is Stella. I won't love anyone but her in this life. No matter if she was once a Mckenzie, I don't care. Even if you don't accept her, I will only love her. The Mckeznie? To hell with them. I don't care what you do to them. But you have to return Stella to me." Tristan's face turned dark as well. "You can love anyone but not her. She has a blood of a Mckenzie, a red-head-" "I don't care! I love her, Dad! To me, she is the woman I want to spend the rest of my life. If you can't accept that, then I won't force you. Just tell me where she is." "I can't. With her around, our fight with the Mckenzie will complicate you. You are already unstable. If she is by your side, it will affect your decision-" "I am not interested in fighting the Mckenzie. You can fight with them the way you want." "Kane...Are you saying you would rather choose that woman than our family?" Tristan
In Love With You Chapter 142: Revelation
..... "Master, I have received a call from Young Master Kane. He is on his way here." The head butler came to report to Tristan. The head butler felt uncomfortable for lying to his young master. But he couldn't disobey his Master's orders. Tristan was standing on the window looking at the bright moon above. He did not react to the head butler's report and just continue to stare at the dark sky. When the head butler thought that he would be dismissed, the man asked. "Has she arrived safely?" The head butler bowed and answered, "Yes, Master. The people there called me a few minutes ago that they have arrived at their accommodations." "How long is it until her legs will heal?" "It's about a month, Master." "Don't let her come out of that place then. Watch her closely. If she ever made contact with my son, changed the address. I don't care which country she lives." The head butler hesitated a bit. "Master...I know I am going out of line by asking this, but is it really alright
In Love With You Chapter 141: Someone High
"I don't believe it as well. So I dig deeper into this so we can prove that the Cruz empire is innocent. However...." "But what?" Kane asked in a heavy tone. "Things got more suspicious. The more I investigate the more I found their movement fit all the missing pieces in the puzzle. I think someone higher up in your company has control over all of this. " "...Send me the details." Kane was having difficulties accepting all of this. He wouldn't believe it as long as he see it with his own eyes. He could not accept that his own people would do this to the people close to him. A while later, he received an email from Eduardo. Kane printed all of them and was stunned when he read every page. If it was other people, they wouldn't be able to find out the involvement of Cruz Empire in this incident. They were meticulous enough and did not leave any traces. However, Eduardo was not an ordinary person. He has the means to dig up and his intelligence could find the minute flaws that the
In Love With You Chapter 140: Culprit
They were the people who kept sending threats with fresh blood. They are the people who caused me to have an accident.Dread came to my whole being. I looked up at the thin middle-aged man with red eyes.Are they here to kill me?This was the first time I saw them in action. There was no doubt that they were here to harm me.I could not help but tear up.After battling with Mckenzie and persevering, I thought I could finally start a new life without being afraid anymore. But it looked like I could not do that anymore.I stared at the man with tears in my eyes, "Are you here to kill me then?"The thin middle-aged man just looked at me, "I want to. But if I do that, I am afraid it will drive my son insane. Like what happened to me."Huh?Son?Suddenly, the familiarity that kept nagging me found its missing piece. The deadpan face overlapped to the face of a handsome middle-aged gentleman."Uncle Tristan?" I asked in bewilderment."So you still recognize me, huh?"His words confirmed my
