In Love With You Chapter 97: Sweet Kiss
The night was deep.It was early summer so the night sky was clear and there were a lot of stars tonight.The golden mansion's garden was quite big. The gardener gives a lot of care and thought to the landscape. There were flowers in bloom adding a refreshing fragrance to the air.I don't know who put those little lights in the garden, but the colorful lights added a beautiful romantic atmosphere and ambiguity to the air.Kane and I were walking silently in the garden. The awkwardness grew under this ambiguous atmosphere.Fortunately, Kane spoke. "You look beautiful in the dress.""...."But his word just made me more awkward!I could not help but put the unruly hair on the back of my ear. "...Not good as Layla." I muttered.Kane rose his brow and stared at me deeply. "I don't think so.""?""You and Layla have differences in charm," Kane added."Oh." For a moment, my heart skipped a beat there. I thought he was disagreeing with me when I said that I wasn't as good-looking as Layla. I
In Love With You Chapter 98: Aftershock
A/n: This chapter is fixed. Thank you for waiting. *** My hand was moving unconsciously across the paper while my eyes were dazed. Fine strokes appeared on the blank sheet of paper. Yet, I am still unaware of what I was unconsciously drawing. Because my mind was somewhere else. Images of the night came to my mind again. The romantic beautiful garden... Kane's favorite flower... The kiss... I slapped my cheeks. The loud slap echoed in the silent room. The art professor looked at me with questions in her eyes. "Is something the matter, Stella?" I woke up from my stupor. My classmates who were focusing on their drawings looked up at me with confused and worried gazes. I blushed and lowered my head. "No, ma'am." The professor and my classmates must have noticed that I had been out of my mind since the beginning of the class. "Oh. You have finished sketching already?" The professor saw my paper and approached me. "Can I see?" I handed my paper blankly to her. My mind was stil
In Love With You Chapter 99: What does the kiss mean?
A/n: This chapter is fixed. Thank you for waiting. **** "!" He was holding his phone near his ear, while my phone was continuously vibrating. Kane: "...." Damn. If I run now...could I still escape? Kane must have guessed my thoughts because he immediately blocked my way. "Stella." I bit my lips and looked down. I don't want to see what was in his eyes. If those eyes were indifferent or just teasing me...I think I would be hurt. "Stella, are you avoiding me?" Kane's low voice sounded. I clenched my hold on the strap of my bag. "....Is it because of what I did?" Kane asked. He took a step forward while I took a step back. His steps halted. "...Do you hate me now?" There was a hint of grievance in his voice. I looked up and saw his dark eyes which were always deep and arrogant had a hint of anxiousness and....heartache. Pang. I felt my heart squeezed by a pair of ruthless hands. I don't want to see that look of hurt in Kane's eyes. "I..." I started to speak. But I don't
In Love With You Chapter 100: I Like You
****"I like you....'I always imagined Kane would say those magic words to Layla. In one of my sad dreams, I could see the handsome teenager Kane confessing to Layla with blushing ears and eyes darting everywhere. And to make that dream worst, the very next day, the two would become a couple. A sweet loving perfect couple.There's no way I could get in between them.It was an outcome that I had prepared myself for a long time. I buried my feelings and tried to accept my own standing. I accepted the fact that Kane would never like me back. And that my role was to support their love.They were both people I genuinely care for. So...the only thing I could do was not show my ugly feelings. If I wasn't able to control it, I would go far away and heal myself over time.That's the outcome I always thought of.But never....never ever I imagined that I would be subjected to these words.Especially from Kane.My ears had gone deaf by those words. With the addition of my loud beating heart, I
In Love With You Chapter 101: Anna
"Your birthday? Oh, right! Yesterday is your birthday! Oh my. Belated Happy Birthday, sis."I smiled. Anna did not forget the real date of my birthday."I am sorry. I just remembered now because I am too occupied and worried.""It's okay. I know you care about me a lot or else you wouldn't find my number to call me and give me a heads up." My feelings toward Anna were complicated.She was the sister I always admire. She was lovely, kind, warm, and talented. A perfect child in every way.However, because she was too perfect, her little sister who wasn't talented as much as her would look dull.Unlike her who was favored and always got to impress others, I am always left out and ignored.And it was way worse when people pay attention to me. Because they always compared me to her. So although Anna treated me kindly, I could not help but hate her.Why I should always be compared to her? Why should I match her skills and talent? Why she was so perfect and I am lacking in many ways?Sinc
In Love With You Chapter 102: Feeling giddy
..... Thankfully, Kane reminded me. I was a bit late for my next class. But I don't feel upset about it. Contrary, I was feeling giddy all the way. Too bad though, we weren't able to talk more about our feelings since we have to go to our classes after our lunch. "Later...can you wait for me?" Kane suddenly asked. My classes ended early than his. Before, I waited for him at the library to go home together since we are a pair. But now that Kane was asking this straightforwardly, I felt that there are a great difference even though we were just going home together like usual. There was an ambiguity in the air. It feels like a boyfriend asking her girlfriend to go home together. For some reason, I felt butterflies in my stomach. Gosh. My cheeks are burning. "Yes. I'll be in the library." Kane smiled. His eyes twinkled. "Good." I went to my classroom in a daze. There were so many things that happened today. Kane confessed to me. We kissed. Then I got a call from Anna. I heard
In Love With You Chapter 103: When he started liking me?
Fortunately, Layla was helpful.[It is better for you to have light makeup since you don't know how to apply cosmetics. I know your skin tone and I tried some lipstick on you before. I think you would look good with bright red lipstick shade #2 and some eyeliner. Put on some blush. You don't need concealer and powder since you got good skin. Your freckles on the blush would look good. Don't cover it!]I followed Layla's instructions. She knew my feature best so she had some ideas about what color and look would suit me.I applied and erased my makeup a couple of times. I was messy at first. But after practicing, I got the hang of it. I am an artist after all.I looked in the mirror and felt that it was enough. Since I wasn't sure if my look was good, I send a picture to Layla to ask for her opinion.[Kyaaah! You are so pretty and sexy!]I was shy.I also think that my whole vibe and appearance changed with this little bit of makeup. My eyes are more expressive. The blush on my face ad
In Love With You Chapter 104: First encounter
[Kane's POV]Nine years ago....A ten-year-old boy was dressed in a black suit. His dark hair was covering his dark eyes. He looked cold and expressionless. However, those obsidian eyes carried darkness and loneliness that could puncture one's heart.The boy was standing motionlessly in front of a tomb as his stepfather, Tristan Cruz, silently wept.Today was the boy's mother's death anniversary. It was a sad day that reminded them that their once-perfect family had been ruined. However, the boy could not cry, since the only adult in his family was already in a mess ever since his mother's death.As the only heir and family member, the boy took the burden to remain headstrong and unwavering. After all, his mother always taught him to be strong no matter what the circumstances."Young Master." The head butler came to the boy's side. "Today is the gathering of the Golden Heirs. We should prepare."The young boy glanced at his stepfather who was still denying the reality. With his fath

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

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.
