In Love With You Chapter 35: The Betting Comes
.... But Michelle's reminder worked. So that evening, I waited for Layla to arrive. Eduardo drove her to Golden Mansion and only said 'Hi' to us and left. He still did not stay in the house. It was really inconvenient for him to go back and forth like this. Well, I don't know what that man was thinking. But seeing them together made me realize that Kane's progress with Layla was so slow- ah no- there was no progress at all. I should start making plans about it. Or else Layla would be completely taken away. "You are still awake?" Layla put down her belongings as she massaged her shoulder. "Did Eduardo make you do manual labor?" "Nah. It's just that I don't do anything all day but sit up straight. I am more used to moving around so much." I raised my eyebrow. It seemed that Layla was working diligently even though she was only sitting up straight. "By the way, make time for me tomorrow," I said. Layla's eyes lit up. "Are you finally going to treat me?" "...." Layla pouted a
In Love With You Chapter 36: Convincing
The Acting Department laughed."Isn't that what old ladies do? Michelle is right, she really looked like an old lady!""Yeah! What's wrong with calling ugly people 'ugly'? Should we lie and say she is prettier than Michelle instead? We are not blind!"I glared at the man from the acting department who spoke. The man saw my glare and glared back."...." My glare was not really intimidating."Besides, Layla is really a slut! She changed men quickly, isn't it written clearly in our university's posts?!""That's all speculation without evidence!""There are pictures and the men had spoken themselves!"The two sides began to argue again.President Qitz sweated. "Alright, alright. Let's hear the second part of the bet."The crowd gradually turned silent as President Qitz spoke again. "If Stella is lost then she has to ask for forgiveness to Michelle while on her knees and compensate her for the troubles. Additionally, the whole Art Department will have to treat the Acting Department student
In Love With You Chapter 37. Supporting the Claims
A/n: This is the chapter for Chapter 37. The editor is available on weekdays so I can't edit the previous chapter. The changes would reflect by Monday. **** The poll refreshed again and the side which Layla and Eduardo were going out was continuously rising. Finally, the voting poll ended. Eighty-seven percent of the votes believed Layla and Eduardo were going out. The 13% that left was probably my department which believed in me. It seemed like Layla would have her money back tripled. I closed my phone, regretting that I did not place a money bet as Layla did. Michelle's haughty voice sounded again. "It's very obvious. Only blind people would not figure out what was going on between them, right?" The surroundings turned noisy. They all agreed with Michelle's reasoning. "W-what should we do? It seemed that the two is going out...or if not...perhaps they are friends with benefits?" I heard some anxious murmurs behind me. My department was getting nervous. They too seemed
In Love With You Chapter 38: Showing up together
A/n: This is for chapter 38.****The silent hall was still for a moment then it erupted."...Ask the party involved?""...Does she mean asking Layla Pearson and Eduardo Calvano?""...But would the two come?"I smiled. "I said those things earlier to Michelle because she is not showing us any evidence. She is just simply making stories and assumptions through those stolen pictures that don't mean anything. It's laughable to convince everyone with that makeup story. So why not let the person involved speak for themselves?"I pointed in the direction where the two main subjects of this scandal were silently watching. "They are already here. Let's just ask them."The spotlight was turned in that direction."They are here?!"All of them looked in the direction I pointed. Upstairs, Eduardo, Layla, Gabrielle, and Levi was seating together in a box where the VIP of the theater hall gather. They chose a special place befitting their identities."Oh my gosh! Four of the Golden Heirs are here!
In Love With You Chapter 39: Take back your words
A/n: This is for chapter 39.***She had been cornered and the only way out was to admit defeat.The people in the acting department also knew this fact. They looked at Michelle and started to blame her."Michelle, you said that you are very confident that we win this bet. But what is happening? The Golden Heir showed up and denied your claims with evidence! Are we really going to lose in front of the whole school?!""Are we really going to treat those lowly art department students like our seniors for the whole semester?! Ah...this is seriously embarrassing!"They already know that they messed up. With Eduardo's firm stance and foolproof evidence, it was clear that they have lost.While on the other hand, the Art Department was excited. They did not let this chance to insult the Acting Department pass by."Haha! Now, who is blind? It's you guys who are delusional! Making up stories in your own.""They are so smug earlier because they thought they could just slander anyone they want t
In Love With You Chapter 40: Winning the Bet
All eyes were watching Michelle, waiting for her to admit defeat and be humiliated.Michelle lowered her head and said with gritted teeth. "...I am...sorry."She doesn't sound sorry at all. She sounds like a beast uttering a growl.My co-department was not satisfied. "Is that even an apology? You don't look apologetic or sincere at all! It seemed like you are cursing her!"I thought too as well.Michelle glared at me, "I said I am sorry. I am taking back my words. I am wrong and you are right, happy?"It sounded like she was going to shred me into pieces if I said no.Unfortunately for her, that wasn't what I wanted to hear. "You forgot something to include in your apology."Michelle knew what it was. "I am taking back my words that you are an old lady."Oh? She said it in one breath."But don't think this is going to end! Today, you made me lose face. I will make sure to pay you back the same humiliation you caused me. I will be watching you!" She then left in big strides.The crowd
In Love With You Chapter 41: Something Going On
Hmm...Since we are all eating, should we also invite Kane? I looked at them but no one seemed to remember to invite Kane. I kinda pity Kane now."We should call Kane. He is the only one missing." I reminded them.Gabrielle nodded. "Of course. He should be there.""...." So please messaged him.Gabrielle did not take my hint. I reminded her again, "You can invite Kane.""Yeah. You should call him." Gabrielle passed the matter to me."..."Everyone except Eduardo looked at me as if it was an obvious matter for me to contact Kane first.I have no choice but to take out my phone.Right, he was my partner so it was natural that I am the one who would contact him. Agh.As I was about to message him, I received an incoming call.Speaking of the devil.It was Kane."Hello?""Where are you?" Kane's magnetic and deep voice sounded. His voice sounded good and it even amplified on the phone. As if he was whispering in my ears.I shook my head to wake up from that strange state."I am in the priv
In Love With You Chapter 42: Lagging Behind
But Layla couldn't see it and denied it."Of course not. Boss and I are not like that. That's the line we will not cross and never be crossed."I glanced at Eduardo whose eyes darkened. I don't think you and Eduardo agree on that.Layla might not know but Eduardo has set his eyes on her.My fingers holding the cup tightened. If Kane did not act soon, Layla would be completely fallen into Eduardo's trap. I should think of a plan soon.Gabrielle did not buy Layla's denial. "Really? But seeing you two, I think you guys are about to cross that line. We are not fools. We could see-"Eduardo interrupted Gabrielle's new round of teasing. "Layla said it's not. So it's not." Eduardo's eyes were a bit domeenering. He changed the direction of the conversation to the interrogator, "How about the two of you? Are you guys dating?"Gabrielle was about to answer when Levi frowned, "Eduardo, don't put us into an embarrassing situation. You know I have a girlfriend."Gabrielle's face turned ugly, "Ja

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
