Upon arriving at Kendrick's penthouse, Louis threw him to the floor."Show me! Where did you keep the video?" his voice echoed.Wiping the corner of his bleeding lip, Kendrick chuckled. "Are you deaf or what? I said I wouldn't give it to you. Unless you want to give me the real one. That girl, I mean."Not wanting his blood pressure to increase, Louis glanced at his guards. Those handsome young men immediately moved. They searched the entire house.Seeing Kendrick's relaxed expression, Louis narrowed his eyes. "You don't keep it here?"Kendrick shrugged. "Well, you guys won't find it anyway.""Is that so?" Louis raised an eyebrow.Receiving a disdainful look from Kendrick, he ordered the guards to stop. Kendrick laughed at that."What's wrong? Are you giving up before you even try?" he teased.Louis bent his knees. "Do you keep it in your room?""No," Kendrick replied casually."In your study?""No.""In the living room?"Kendrick snorted lightly. "It's no use asking, Louis. You'll ne
Not wanting to miss any information, Louis played another recording that was directed at the door. He synchronized the time, so two videos were playing simultaneously.It turned out that as soon as they entered the room, the red-headed girl laid Louis down on the bed. She looked surprised when Sky barged in.Curious about what they were arguing about, Louis searched for the audio file. After successfully adding it, he grabbed his earphones and listened to the recordings with full concentration."Who are you? How dare you come in here!" the red-headed girl scolded.Sky put her hands on her hips. "I should be the one asking. Who are you? How dared you take Louis into this room, when he clearly didn't want you to take him? He's pushed you several times, you know?"Suddenly, the red-headed girl stepped forward. She pushed Sky's shoulder, but Sky didn't back down at all. Instead, she stood firm. "Hey? You dare push me?""I'm the girl Louis hired to serve him tonight. So, just leave! Don't
Five years ago ....After unbuttoning Louis' shirt, Sky forced him to sit up. She helped him free himself from his silk shirt. Then, she started to unbutton Louis' pants while glancing away."I came here to surprise you, Louis, but why were you the one who surprised me?" she muttered, like she was grumbling.A few seconds later, only underwear was left on Louis' body. Sky didn't dare to look down anymore. While glancing away, she put Louis' arm on her shoulder."Come on, Louis. I'll help you to the bathroom," she sighed while getting up from bed.But apparently, Louis was too heavy for her. He remained sitting on the edge of the bed, not lifting at all."Louis? Come on! Cooperate with me. Use your strength! Just a little bit, it will help a lot."Sky tried another way. She stood in front of Louis, wrapping his arms around her neck. "Hold on to me. On the count of three, lift your body up, understand?"Sky hugged Louis' body, ready to lift him. However, before she could count, Louis su
"Louis ...."Sky regretted not wearing a bra. Maybe she should start considering it even though the jumpsuit she was wearing was high enough to cover her chest.Now, her body was shaking, both her hands clenched tightly at her sides. Her mouth could only let out a sigh. She was afraid that her heart would explode if she didn't control her breathing.Slowly, Sky was lulled. Her eyes were closed, her body began to move, matching the turmoil in her chest.With her common sense fading, she did not realize that her jumpsuit had fallen to her hips. Therefore, when Louis' fingers entered the center of her warmth, she was shocked beyond belief. Her eyes were rounded, her breathing rapid."Louis," Sky pushed her body up, trying to escape his touch.However, Louis did not let her go. Instead, he pressed her weak point. Sky spontaneously winced and bit her lip. She needed extra effort to be able to push Louis' shoulder away."Wait a minute, Louis. We agreed that you would only touch me," she sai
Louis continued his action. He pampered Sky with his touch. However, before he could go far, Sky commented again."Louis, do you think I'm a tunnel? What kind of train do you get? Why doesn't it have an end?"Louis failed to hold back his amusement again. "Just imagine it's a train that will take us on a summer vacation.""Where to vacation?""To fun places. Anywhere with you, I'll be happy.""Okay. But why summer?"Louis wiped the sweat off Sky's face, which was no longer pale. Her blush had returned."Don't you like summer?""Yes, it's the brightest and warmest season. And in the past, you and Emily often went on vacation during that season. I liked it every time we went on an adventure together.""After we get married, let's go on vacation every summer. We'll go on an adventure wherever you like."Sky smiled shyly. "That's a good idea, Louis. By the way, why are you pulling your train backwards? Is my tunnel at its last stop? Ah .... Why did you suddenly go forward? Louis, you're n
"Sir, I didn't dare to enter Young Master Kendrick's residence. I actually came here secretly. I heard you were here, so I wanted to hand this over to you. That's all. Besides," the housekeeper took a deep breath, "I have to get back to work soon. If my boss finds out, I could be fired. I can't possibly apply for a job anywhere else with a body as old as this."Louis looked at her seriously. His eyes were convincing."You don't need to be afraid, Ma'am. After today, just submit your resignation letter. I can cover your living expenses and your family's."The woman's frown instantly disappeared. "Really?"Hope lit up her face. However, in a blink of an eye, it vanished. She shook her head. "But for what, Sir? Do you want me to work for you?""No, Ma'am. You just need to tell me what you know. So, how about we sit inside?"Despite her hesitancy, the old woman went inside. She was a little uneasy because she had to leave her trolley outside. However, seeing Louis' sincerity, she began to
If only Louis had checked the room before leaving that morning, all the misunderstandings wouldn't have happened. He would have been relieved because the girl he had slept with was Sky. He wouldn't have had to deliver insults and threats in front of the media. Sky wouldn't have run away, and they could have been together from the start. He could also have carried Summer since she was born."Where did you find this, Ma'am?" Louis asked hoarsely. Red streaks had appeared in his eyes."On the table, Sir. Right next to the bed where the telephone was placed. I remember it because I had to fix the notebook and pen that were also there."Louis closed his eyes. His face was covered with regret. "I was so careless. How could I not see it?" he groaned in pain.After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Is there anything else you know about Sky, Ma'am?"The old woman took out the last item from her plastic bag. Seeing a package containing some pills, Louis was stunned. "What is that?""Birth c
Omega rushed to check the camera. After making sure Louis' position was perfect, he started the countdown. Then, Louis began to speak."Hello, everyone. Have you watched the new CCTV footage? I hope it's enough to prove that the girl you've been insulting since yesterday is a good girl," he nodded convincingly."Actually, she's been my best friend since childhood. She's an innocent girl who doesn't know evil in her life. The only mistake she made was being in the wrong place at the wrong time."Louis suddenly turned still while staring at the camera. Everyone was waiting for other words from his mouth. However, after a few moments, the atmosphere remained silent. Omega was confused about him."Sir," he whispered.Louis blinked. Sky's shadow had now disappeared from his sight. He finally realized that he was sitting in front of the camera."Sorry," he whispered.Omega raised an eyebrow. He wondered about whom Louis was apologizing to. But then, his question was answered."I'm sorry for
"Why do you keep saying that I'm your father? Louis is the one you should be suing, not me! I'm not your father!" Kendrick said firmly, sounding a little desperate. He didn't realize that the toddler's lips were twitching slightly. Summer was actually struggling to hold back her laughter. Kendrick's reactions were funny to her. She enjoyed teasing him. "Okay, I won't force you to confess anymore. Don't whine, Sir. Now, you'd better explain why you kidnapped me. Otherwise, how am I supposed to understand?" Summer pinched his neck with her shoulders. She looked adorable in that pose. Kendrick sharpened his index finger. "Listen carefully. I won't say it again." "Okay," Summer pushed aside the hair covering her ears with the back of her hand. Then, she sat down nicely. "Your father has destroyed my career and reputation. Therefore, I want to avenge his crimes by throwing you off the cliff." Summer's eyes immediatel
"Sir, didn't you know? A child's eye color can be different from their parents' eye color," Summer replied while nodding cutely.Kendrick froze again. "Where did that myth come from?""That's not a myth, but a fact! There are many cases where a child's eye color is a combination of the eye colors of both parents. Green and blue can produce gray. All three lack pigment.""But I'm not your father! Why do you keep insisting on your ridiculous idea?" Kendrick was getting more and more annoyed."Why don't you admit it?" Summer replied, not wanting to lose. "Are you afraid that I'll sue you?"Kendrick's brows furrowed deeper. "You want to sue me? On what basis?"Summer pursed her lips. Her eyelids drooped slightly. "If you're really my father, that means you have to give Mommy a lot of money.""What money?" Kendrick's voice suddenly became shri
Summer sighed tiredly. Her shoulders dropped, her lips pursed. "I'm not making excuses. What I said is true. Just try walking with your eyes closed and your hands tied. You'll definitely be slow. Let alone me!"The toddler pressed her chest with her tied hands. "I'm only four years old. I'm still small. My steps are also small. If you're tall, your legs are almost three times longer than mine. If you're short, maybe only twice as long. But no matter how short you are, your steps are definitely bigger. I have to take three steps to match one step of yours.""Shut up!"Summer flinched again. Grimacing, she scratched her ears with the back of her hands."Sir, can't you speak more softly? It's already night. Time to sleep. It's rude if you keep making noise. It can disturb others living around here. Oh, by the way, is Mommy awake? How long will the drug last?"While the guy behind he
Seeing her mother's panic, Summer stopped peeking from behind the wall. She revealed herself, asking, "Mommy, what's wrong?"While shifting the couch to block the door, Sky shouted, "The bad guys are coming, Honey. Get in your room and lock the door. Call the emergency number!"Suddenly, a thud was heard. The door vibrated, pushed by something big. Worried that the lock would be broken, Sky held it with all her might. "Honey, hurry up!"Summer blinked in confusion. Instead of obeying, she climbed onto the couch and helped her mother to hold the door with her tiny hands. "What about Mommy?""Mommy will be fine. Call for help now!"Suddenly, a thud came from the window. Someone was apparently pounding the shatterproof glass with a gun.Knowing that time was running out, Sky shouted again, "Honey!"Summer finally ran away. She went into her
"You created the abyss yourself, Kendrick!" Louis replied firmly. "Don't blame me for what has happened to you. Once again you disturb me and my family, I will make you stay at the bottom of the abyss forever."Kendrick laughed evilly. "You're still arrogant, apparently. Alright. I accept your challenge. Let's see who reaches the bottom first. Me or that little girl?"Louis' eyes immediately widened. Red lines began to circle his pupils."This is our business. Why did you involve another person? She's innocent! She has nothing to do with this matter!"Hearing Louis' anger, Kendrick's laughter grew louder. "Isn't she the root of our problems? If she hadn't ruined your proposal, the truth wouldn't have been revealed. We're still friends and I would still live in peace.""We were never friends! I never have a friend as cruel as you!""Yes, you're right. I am ind
Omega came out of his tent. "There's nothing here.""What about the stuff?" Louis inquired with a serious expression."It's safe. I didn't bring any important stuff here. It's all in the car."Alice, who had just finished checking her tent, reported the same thing. "I don't think it was a robbery. Nothing was missing."Edmund's brows were furrowed even more. "Then what was he after? Did he leave any clues?" He entered the tent, checking among Summer's belongings.From the tent door, Louis' eyes fell on a small piece of paper that had been crumpled into a ball. He picked it up. Turned out, it was an ATM receipt for a withdrawal balance. The final amount was quite large."It seems like someone got paid for this task," he concluded with a serious expression.Alice gasped and covered her mouth. "You mean someone wants to hurt Summer? For what
Edmund's face turned sullen again. He wondered why his granddaughter had fallen for Louis so easily. In fact, he thought Freddy was more charming.As a result, he didn't talk much for the rest of the night. Even when they returned to the camping area, he just took Alice into the tent. He was disappointed because, up until that moment, Freddy still hadn't managed to attract Summer's attention."What else should I do? How can I make Sky and Summer like Freddy more?" he thought as he stretched out his sleeping bag.While Edmund was seriously contemplating, suddenly, Summer's scream was heard. As fast as lightning, he and Alice crawled out.Sky immediately let go of the chair she was setting up. She ran to Summer's tent too, followed by Louis and Freddy."Honey, what's wrong?" Sky asked spontaneously from the tent door.It turned out that Summer had been standing
"In two months, it will be autumn here. The air is too cold for Summer and Sky to wear beautiful dresses. They'll freeze. Besides, they prefer to be warm," Freddy stated.Louis' face turned stiff. "Do you think I will let them get cold? I can build a building with glass walls and a roof with a heating system. They can still dance in cool clothes while watching the aurora with me."Hearing the argument, Summer frowned. "I don't think you need to do that, Uncle Louis. That building must be very expensive. You'd be better off saving the money for something more useful. Besides ...."Summer moved to Sky's lap. "Mommy and I don't mind dancing outside. We can wear coats over our pretty dresses. We'll stay warm and still look stunning. Isn't that right, Mommy?"Sky smiled a little. She was proud of her daughter. "That's right, Honey. You're beautiful no matter what you wear.""Mommy too
Louis spontaneously laughed. He was amused to see how expressive his daughter was. However, realizing Edmund's cynical glance, he closed his mouth again and listened."After many efforts, Mommy decided to use a rope. I was in charge of holding it from above while Mommy tied the other end to the baby elephant's body. It was an important task because the rope must not fall. If it got wet, it would become slippery. It would be difficult for Mommy and I to pull it.""Your mom wasn't strong enough to push the baby elephant out of the hole. Wouldn't it be harder if you guys pulled it from above?" Freddy's voice suddenly caught all their attention. It was Louis' turn to have a sour expression."We weren't strong enough at first. I had used all my strength, though. The veins in my hands were sticking out."The toddler looked down, pointing to where the veins she meant. After a brief silence, she raised her h
