Felicity helped Chelsey up from the ground. After Chelsey was seated on the couch, Felicity handed her a bottle of juice. Chelsey took a sip of juice and finally found her voice. "Did you send the intruder to Lucas?""Yes," Felicity replied lightly. "Thank you."Only then did Chelsey notice her hand holding the juice was trembling violently. She hurriedly put it down, placed her hand on her thigh, and forced herself to calm down. She had been through numerous dangerous incidents. So, Chelsey knew being fearful in hindsight was pointless.Right then, Lucas called. Chelsey hesitated momentarily before answering the phone. Simultaneously, she checked the time and realized it was 4:00 am.As soon as the call connected, Lucas' deep voice echoed in Chelsey's ear. "Are you okay?"His voice carried a magnetic charm in the quiet night. It was somewhat raspy and exceptionally seductive."I'm fine. Thank you," Chelsey responded sincerely.If it were not for the bodyguards he
Fred got up from the ground and put on his pajamas. He was genuinely satisfied with his figure, as his muscles were well-toned. However, Fred did not expect his fighting skills to be so weak. Felicity managed to bring him down with just one hand. Fred figured it was time to find a martial arts expert to learn fighting skills. That way, he would not appear weak in front of Felicity. …During breakfast, Chelsey could not help but ask, "Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Fred, do any of you know about a vault?"Edward, Dianne, and Fred were visibly stunned. They did not expect Chelsey to ask about it out of the blue. Dianne and Edward exchanged a glance. They had already discussed it before. They considered revealing the truth if Chelsey were to ask about the vault.The couple ultimately agreed she was no longer a child and deserved to know about it.Edward took a sip of his coffee. He then cleared his throat before slowly saying, "Chels, we actually don't know the specifics of t
"Yes, Felicity is beautiful and highly skilled. She's so cool!" Chelsey exclaimed. She, too, had become a fan of Felicity. The image of Felicity radiating strength and confidence filled Fred's mind. She embodied the idea that women were just as capable as men.Fred commented, "She's indeed cool."Chelsey wasn't sure how their conversation shifted to Felicity. She quickly steered it back, saying, "Uncle Fred, you guys be careful, too. I'm worried those people might target you, Grandpa, and Grandma.""Okay, I'll assign more people to protect us." As Fred spoke, he patted Chelsey's head. "If there's nothing important, just stay at home. Don't leave the house.""Don't worry, Uncle Fed. I'm a homebody," Chelsey reassured him. She was used to staying in. Back when she cared for Lucas, he refused to meet anyone. Thus, they could remain indoors for months without going out. "I'm leaving now. Goodbye," said Fred. Chelsey replied, "Bye."Fred then opened his car's door and c
Lucas was also sensible as he played along with Fred's explanation. "You're right, Uncle Fred. You're really going above and beyond.""Chels is my niece. It's my responsibility to care for her," Fred answered. "Mr. Yates, please send me Felicity's information. I won't bother you further. Goodbye.""Goodbye."After Lucas hung up, he immediately sent Felicity's information to Fred. She was 31 years old, standing tall at 5 feet 7.7 inches, and weighed 121.25 pounds. Felicity was skilled in combat and tracking. She had also served in a special forces unit. Lucas also sent Fred photos of Felicity fighting. Her gaze was sharp, appearing dangerously stunning. Fred was captivated by her eyes as he stared at her pictures. It was like they held magical powers, causing his goosebumps to rise. …It was a beautiful day, and the sun was warm. Chelsey sat in the garden sketching designs. Meanwhile, Felicity stood under a tree near Chelsey. Felicity dozed off as she leaned agains
Lucas wanted to tell her, "No matter how dangerous the situation is, I'm willing to face it all because you asked me to."However, as those words reached the tip of his tongue, he swallowed them back."Since you approached me, it must be something I can handle. Otherwise, you wouldn't have sought me out," Lucas replied seriously. Chelsey nodded. "Yes, you're indeed the only one who can do it.""Tell me about it, then." Lucas was a straightforward person. So, Chelsey did not need to beat around the bush. Worried that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation, she took her phone, opened the notes application, and typed several words. However, Chelsey did not send it to Lucas. Instead, she handed the phone to him. Lucas frowned after reading what she wrote. He typed a line in response. "No, that's too dangerous."Then, Lucas returned the phone to Chelsey. She pouted and said, "You just told me you'll help me no matter what. You're lying!" "I'm not lying." L
Seeing that Chelsey did not drive Lucas away, Dianne and Edward said nothing. However, their expressions appeared grim. Fred enthusiastically welcomed Lucas. "Mr. Yates, make yourself at home. Don't be shy. You've put yourself in danger to save Chels twice. Our family will never forget your kindness."After Fred brought up the debt of gratitude, Dianne's and Edward's tense expressions finally softened. Dianne took a sip of chowder before sternly saying, "Yes, we're grateful for what you've done. But if you hurt Chels again, we won't let it slide.""I won't hurt her again," Lucas replied seriously."Okay." As Dianne spoke, she served a bowl of chowder to Lucas and placed before him. "Let's eat."They had just started eating when Lia returned. "We have guests?" she asked. Lia was surprised and delighted upon seeing Lucas' handsome face. She then took the initiative to approach him. "Hello, my name is Lia Jenson. Nice to meet you!"Lucas politely rose and nodded.
Lucas also disregarded Lia's friendly gestures. Dianne had always liked Lia because of her cheerful personality. However, when she noticed Lia giving Lucas so much attention, Dianne thought Lia lacked self-respect.As Lucas was living with them now, Dianne did not know what kind of antics Lia might pull. Dianne cleared her throat, earnestly advising, "Lia, go back to school after dinner. You should stay there and focus on your studies this week."Lia was surprised that Dianne was kicking her out. She felt aggrieved and sad. Did Chelsey's return mean the family no longer needed her? Was she just an extra member?Even though Lia was disappointed, she had to obey. "Okay, I'll return after dinner," she obediently replied."Good, I'll have Charles send you later."Lia answered, "Okay, Grandma."With that said, she continued eating with her head down. The smile on her face had long vanished.After dinner, Lia tried to get closer to Lucas. But Dianne asked the chauffeur to ta
Lucas stood by the bathtub. Suddenly, he bent down. Chelsey was startled and immediately asked, "W-What are you doing?""I'll help you scrub your back. You used to do it for me, so now it's my turn to help you."As Lucas spoke, his hands rested on Chelsey's back.He exerted a slight pressure as his fingertips glided over her smooth skin. It was as if his fingers were electrified, causing Chelsey to feel waves of tingling sensation. She was genuinely unaccustomed to his care. Chelsey's scalp tingled, and her entire body tensed because she was nervous. "I don't need your help. I can scrub my own back. Please leave," said Chelsey.Lucas chuckled. "I used to say I could do it myself, but you mentioned we can't reach our backs. That's why you helped me."And now, I'm doing it for you. It's hard for you to reach your back."Chelsey was at a loss for words by his response. She had not expected Lucas to remember something she said so long ago. Back then, Chelsey was like Lucas'
Sandra flashed a satisfied smile as she wrapped her arms around Micah's neck and kissed him. "Please be gentle. I'm afraid it'll hurt… Mmm…"An hour later, Sandra lay limp in Micah's arms. Both of them were drenched in sweat.Although the car was not spacious, it did not affect Micah's performance. Sandra was very satisfied with him. He turned to look at the sleepy Sandra and gently asked, "Does it still hurt?""Yeah…"Sandra did not expect it to hurt so much to the point she'd cried in pain.Now, she was exhausted. She did not even have the strength to keep her eyes open.Micah reached out to gently wipe away Sandra's tears. "Are you satisfied?""Yeah," Sandra replied as she embraced him tightly. At that moment, all she wanted to do was sleep. Sandra then fell asleep. She had no idea how she returned to the hotel.When she woke up, it was already morning.Micah was lying beside her, and neither of them was wearing anything. Her eyes lit up at the sight of his hand
Micah's judgment may be somewhat clouded, but he was still aware that he and Sandra were in the car.It was their first time doing the deed. Wasn't it too intense for it to happen in the car?"Let's head back to the hotel. The car is too small," Micah said as he grabbed Sandra's hand, his voice hoarse but sexy. Sandra looked at him seductively. "Are you sure you can hold on until we return to the hotel? I can't stand it anymore. I want it now…"She stuck out her pink tongue and licked her lips as she spoke. Every move of hers was charming.Micah was both amused and helpless at the sight of Sandra's eagerness. He had never met such an unrestrained woman like her. She was indeed a lethal poison. Micah's throat felt like it was on fire. He swallowed hard and replied, "It's our first time. Let's not be hasty. We can enjoy it better in the hotel room."Sandra was not the only inexperienced one. It was also Micah's first time. He felt that doing it in the car lacked a sense
Sandra's suggestive tone caused Micah's heart to flutter, and indescribable images appeared in his mind again. His lips trembled as he nervously asked, "W-What do you want to do?""What do you think I want to do?" Sandra winked at him and then licked her lips. Everything was implied but left unsaid, understood without being spoken.Micah felt both excited and awkward. He cleared his throat before replying, "It's too fast.""We'll get there eventually. So, why not do it sooner? We can enjoy it in advance," Sandra said seriously.Once again, her logic left Micah at a loss for words.He took a deep breath to remain rational. Micah refused to let his instincts take the reins once more. "We've just started dating, and there's no guarantee we'll continue to do so. I don't want to hurt you if we don't work out."But Sandra did not seem to care. "Why is your thinking still so conservative in this day and age? I'm not concerned about it, so why should you?"She merely wanted hi
Sandra did not answer Xenia's question. Instead, she replied, "The crawfish here tastes good. It's big and fresh."But Xenia showed no interest in the crawfish. She was captivated by Micah, her eyes lingering on him."Sandra, is he your boyfriend or bodyguard?"Sandra shot Xenia an annoyed glance and answered, "He's my boyfriend. What's it to you?""Nothing much. Your boyfriend suddenly rushed onto the stage and disrupted the filming. Mr. Dodd was pissed. Tell your boyfriend he shouldn't do that again. Even if he wants to become famous, that's not the way."Xenia's words were somewhat sarcastic, leaving Sandra feeling uncomfortable.The latter retorted, "My boyfriend doesn't want to become famous. He rushed onto the stage because he saw I was feeling unwell. "If it weren't for him, I'd have died by now. And if someone dies, the filming can't continue, anyway."Sandra did not know hypothermia could be so severe. She thought she could have toughed it out.Fortunately, Micah h
Sandra could break up with Micah next month if everything went smoothly.She playfully winked at him and said, "It's your turn to feed me."Micah choked on his saliva upon hearing that.They were in public, so he dared not do it at all. However, Sandra had already opened her mouth."Hurry up and feed me."Left with no choice, Micah peeled a crawfish and fed her.After eating that, Sandra smiled and demanded, "I want you to feed me with your mouth.""Don't push your luck."At that point, Micah's face had turned red as a tomato.Despite being an upright person, Sandra had led him astray. His mind was now filled with unwholesome thoughts."I will push my luck," replied Sandra. She then pouted coquettishly. "Quick! Feed me!"She had thoroughly gotten the better of him.Micah became a man without principles, only capable of spoiling his girlfriend. He could not bring himself to refuse her demands.With a crawfish in his mouth, he turned to feed it to Sandra.She aggressi
Sandra did not want to order takeout at the hotel.So, she searched online for a highly-rated restaurant and asked Micah to drive there.Sandra had chosen an eatery that specialized in crawfish. Upon their arrival, she boldly ordered 22 pounds of crawfish, some side dishes, and beer. The crawfish soon arrived, and the plate was almost as big as the table. Sandra rolled up her sleeves and immediately dug in. She also poured beer for herself and Micah."I need to drive, so I can't drink," said Micah."Don't worry. We can just call for a driver. Let's drink together. It's no fun drinking alone."After saying that, Sandra picked up her glass and took a big gulp.She even put her feet up on the chair while eating, displaying her carefree demeanor.It was Micah's first time seeing a female celebrity who was unconcerned about her image. He suddenly found Sandra's bold and candid character rather adorable.As Sandra savored the crawfish, she paired each mouthful with sips of be
Trevor was even more handsome up close.He was a gentleman, smiling as he asked, "Can you stand steady?""I should be able to," answered Sandra.Initially, she was standing just fine, but then Trevor helped her. Sandra suddenly felt her legs go weak. Perhaps she could not stand steady now.Trevor helped her to the side and said, "You should sit here for a while. Continue filming when you feel better.""Alright."At that moment, Sandra hated herself for not bringing paper and a pen with her. Otherwise, she would have gotten Trevor to sign an autograph."He's so good-looking!" Sandra exclaimed inwardly.After that, Trevor returned to the stage. Owen dared not make a sound and only glared at Sandra, who innocently pursed her lips.How could Owen blame her? Trevor was the one who wanted to help her, after all. Suddenly, Sandra sensed an unfriendly gaze and instinctively turned to look. She immediately caught sight of Micah's darkened expression, his eyes gleaming with a hi
Sandra was not embarrassed by Micah's stare. Instead, she flirtatiously blinked at him and asked, "Do you want to join me for a shower?"Startled, Micah averted his gaze and quickly turned away. "Why didn't you close the door when you shower?"Sandra confidently replied, "Why should I close the door? You're not a stranger. Besides, you've seen every part of my body multiple times."Micah could not help but wonder if she was truly a woman. Why wasn't she shy or reserved? Sandra was bolder than any man. Micah gulped nervously before saying, "That's one way to put it. But don't you feel like you're at a disadvantage by letting me see your body?""If you think I'm at a disadvantage, why don't you show me yours? That way, we'll be even." Sandra then beckoned with her finger. "Come here. Let's shower together."At that moment, Micah felt that Sandra was up to no good, like a witch from a fairy tale.After hanging the shirt she requested on the wall, he turned to leave the b
Sandra burst out laughing after hearing that. She was surprised that Micah had a sense of humor and could crack jokes.Their relationship took another step forward without them realizing it.If it had not been for the filming in the afternoon, Sandra would have wanted to make love with Micah immediately. She wanted to get it done as soon as possible because she had been waiting for this day for too long. After giving birth, she could focus on her career without needing to worry about all these matters anymore.Sandra had made a deal with her parents. They would take care of her child, and she did not need to be involved. The child would grow up and inherit the family business, while she could do whatever she liked and live a carefree life.In actuality, Sandra had no desire to date or marry. She just wanted to be alone.She could find several men to accompany her if she ever felt lonely.Meanwhile, Micah was completely unaware of Sandra's plans. He was even planning to in
