In Love With You Chapter 48: Why are you helping him?
Even without the ID, the guard and the host knows Paul so we were able to come in. Paul opened up one of the VIP rooms. This room was big and everything we need was there. We have our own private bar, big couches, karaoke, and board games. At the front was a huge glass wall that oversee the dance floor below. We can choose to draw the curtain to get some privacy. It was not night yet, so there were not many people on the dancefloor. Paul mentioned that the real party starts at midnight when people get wasted and the music bangs to the roof. "Do you drink?" Paul took the bartender's spot and mixed up some drinks. I watched him show his skills in bartending with interest. "I don't. But I would like to try." It was rare for me to take initiative to drink. I just want to get those complicated thoughts out of my mind. "How much can you take?" Paul skillfully opened another bottle and it made a 'plop' sound. "Just little sips." "How could you get fun with little sips? To start the p
In Love With You Chapter 49: Meeting Paul's friends
A/n: This is chapter 49. *** Paul and I made a bet. Paul bet that Eduardo would end up with Layla and that Kane would never be able to confess to Layla. And even if he did, he would be rejected. I snorted at that and we continued our drinking session. Paul also prepared his drink. It was stronger than mine. Paul was a party-goer and lived up to his promise to entertain me well. I did not expect much from him. I thought he would be irresponsible but he was actually being considerate. He did not leave me behind and avoided the crowd so I would be comfortable. "It is a bit boring with just the two of us. How about I invite some friends?" Paul said after a while. I looked at the empty room. There were many board games and it would be a pity to not use them. If it was another day, I would have denied the idea and would prefer to drink alone. Perhaps it was because of the drink or those little squeezes in my heart that I agreed. "Just call the trustful ones." Paul strongly promi
In Love With You Chapter 50: Angry Kane
A/n: This is for chapter 50. **** Wayne walked towards me and sat at my side. "Where is Bill?" "His family called. He had to go home." "Oh." Wayne handed me the drink. "Sober yourself with this." I drank the coffee and my whole body relaxes. I should be on guard being alone with another man that I just met today. But I felt comfortable with Wayne and it felt like we had been friends for a long time. Wayne and I clicked together whatever topic it is. The music was loud and the cheers below were getting louder. I saw Paul and George join the dance floor. Since the two don't have a partner, they compete with each other. George danced like a woman earning loud cheers from the crowd. "Are you sure you are friends with them?" I asked teasingly. "I really questioned that often too." Wayne answered seriously. But there was a laugh at the corner of his mouth. We watched the dancefloor as we conversed in the VIP room. There was no awkwardness between us. No matter how much nois
In Love With You Chapter 51: Complicated thoughts
Kane was silent as he pulled me towards his car.His expression was dark.What was he so angry about?I pulled him to stop."Hold on."But Kane did not hear me and continued to walk. His pace was fast. He has long legs so his steps were big. I can barely keep up."Wait! Stop, Kane!"Kane suddenly stopped. He looked at me with dark eyes.I pulled my hand from him and massaged my wrist."What are you doing here?""I came here to fetch you. Or do you want to stay the night in that club with that man?"I frowned. I could not appreciate Kane coming here with this mean attitude of his. "If you are just going to spout nonsense and accused me then just leave on your own. I have my car here. I'll drive on my own."Kane suddenly stepped forward and put his head between my neck.I flinched. His warm breath hit my neck making me shudder. Kane sniffed."You reek of alcohol. Do you want to be arrested? Drunk while driving?"I pushed him away. "I am perfectly fine.""It's three bottles. How are yo
In Love With You Chapter 52: I don't like him at all
At this moment, Kane walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup. It was piping hot.Kane put it in front of me. "I have some leftovers from the breakfast soup that I made earlier. You should eat this first to warm your stomach. I'll just keep some of the dishes for you to eat later."I looked at the bowl of soup in silence.I argued with him earlier and I made him upset. But he still heated the soup and served it to me?I stared at Kane's face.There was still a frown on his face and his voice was somewhat cold. But his actions were gentle and considerate.A familiar sensation rose up to my chest. It's different from the uncomfortable squeeze that I felt the whole day.This feeling rose when Kane prepared breakfast for me for the first time, when he drove me to school even though he doesn't have to. When he first texted me, when he waited for me to finish my food and when he said words of concern to me. This tingling sensation appeared whenever I met his beautiful obsidian eyes, w
In Love With You Chapter 53: Confused Kane
A/n: This is for chapter 53. This chapter is fixed. Thanks for waiting. *** I immediately jumped out of the car the moment Kane parked his car. However, the latter also came out and ran after me. "What are you doing?" I asked him in shock. I looked around to see if there were any people around. My eyes brushed a blonder hair but before I could take a closer look, that person was gone. "There are only two of us here. Anyway, I wanted to tell you something." Kane started to speak. I hurriedly pulled him and dragged him behind a large tree. If we remain standing there in the parking lot, people would immediately see us. "Can it not wait until later?" "No. I have to say it today." "Then why you didn't say it earlier?" He had a lot of chances to say whatever he wanted to say in the car. "Nevermind, what is it?" Kane looked at me. His dark eyes were wavering a bit as if he was hesitating to say it. I don't have much time to wait on him especially when we were out in the open. W
In Love With You Chapter 54: Why is he not taking the hint?
A/n: This chapter is fixed. *** Levi replied to Gabrielle, "Stella is perfectly fine. She studies well and looks how she is treated in her department?" I wanted to stop Levi from making me the model student. Because the more he praised me, the more Gabrielle would get angry. And as I thought, Gabrielle glared at me, "Do you call that 'perfectly fine'? You need your eyes get checked." "My eyes are working well." The two started arguing again. Did these two have a fight? Why is their relationship becoming rusty ever since the teaming up? How did they survive being together all this time? Eduardo interrupted the two who were having a 'lover's quarrel'. "I came here today because I wanted to ask whose team Layla would join?" Gabrielle raised her hand. "We need another person in the group. You see, recently, Levi is always contradicting me and nagging me. We always end up fighting and not seeing eye to eye. With the additional person, someone could see who is wrong between us." L
In Love With You Chapter 55: Clubbing together
The three's reactions exceeded my expectation. I thought it would take me a few more words to invite them to the club. Kate smiled as she wiped her glasses, "We don't look like we party much, but actually the three of us are clubbing every Sunday." "You guys did?" I was stunned. As Kate said, these three with different personalities don't look like they party wild. But to think that these girls were actually a party-goer than Layla. Denise flipped her long hair, "What kind of college student doesn't party?" "..." Me. I just recently entered a club. But I did not point that out unless I wanted to be seen as a naive and inexperienced college student. "So which club we are going to?" Alexa asked with sparkles in her eyes. "Sirius." I saw the large sign in Paul's club. "Sirius!" The three exclaimed loudly at the same time. The other people at other tables glanced at us. But the three girls were still in shock and did not notice the stares. "Sirius, the high-end club owned by

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

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
