The sight made Kelsey uncomfortable.

Just last night, she had been sharing the bed with Tyler.

Now, here he was holding another woman in his arms.

“Mr. Lang, you have a very beautiful companion over there.” Seated across from Tyler was a man from a foreign land named Barton. He made the comment while casting a flirty look at Zara.

Barton was the main reason Tyler attended the event tonight. He was a man of status, being the main contract partner and also involved in the mafia in another country.

Tyler just smiled graciously upon hearing the compliment, he did not seem particularly bothered by the comment.

On the contrary, Zara seemed upset.

She had been wondering why Tyler would suddenly agree to meet her at all and even invite her to have dinner with him.

As it turned out, it was only because he wanted her to accompany him to meet this perverted-looking man who came from far away.

“Ms. Quest, I heard you are famous!” Barton turned to Zara with a look burning with curiosity. H

    Kelsey’s entrance drew the attention of everyone in the room.As soon as she entered, she met the eyes of Tyler, who was sitting on the couch.The dim lighting in the room added an air of mysteriousness to his usual charming and handsome profile.He was holding a glass of red wine in his hand and swaying it gently.The moment he saw Barton's subordinate bringing Kelsey into the room, a wipe of shock appeared in his eyes for just a split second before it reverted to his usual stoic look.Zara was equally shocked and irritated.She did not expect Kelsey to look for Tyler so desperately that she would even show up here of all places.“Tyler…”Kelsey’s first thought upon meeting Tyler was to go to his side.However, Tab took her to Barton.He lowered himself toward Barton and whispered something in his ears.Barton then chuckled. “I see, the girl is here to see Mr. Lang!”There was an inscrutable look laced with meaning in his eyes as he said that.Tyler swiped a rather indiff

    Since the moment Kelsey stepped into the room, Tyler had barely paid any attention to her.It was as if she was just a stranger who had nothing to do with him.Even her survival meant nothing to her.Kelsey felt as though a heavy weight pressing down on her heart. She could not breathe and was slowly sinking into a depthless pit.Her vision was turning blurry with tears.How could Tyler be so merciless?Even when Tab had dragged her out of the room, her mind was still blank.She could not believe Tyler would do something like this to her.She thought about the things they did together last night. How did everything change so quickly after they had woken up after the act?Did Zara have something to do with this?She was so lost in her thoughts that she hardly noticed Tab aiming the gun at her forehead.“Since Mr. Lang claims that he doesn’t know you, good riddance,” Tab declared with a grim look in his eyes.Kelsey snapped back to her senses.She was horrified.“What are y

    Barton's eyes would not stop wandering around Zara's neck while he showered her with praises.Zara felt goosebumps run across her body.At the end of the day, she was the daughter of the honored Quests.Nobody had ever cast such bold, perverted looks at her.If it was anyone else, she would have given them a few good slaps to put them in their place.However, she endured the disrespect tonight for Tyler’s sake.She strained a smile. “Thank you, you’re too kind!”“Mr. Lang, I’ll be very blunt with you, I have always wanted to have a beauty like her by my side. I was wondering if you would share her with me and let me have her for a few days? I assure you that I will personally see to it that our business deal is carried out without any hiccups.” Barton was very direct with what he wanted.He stared at Zara intently the entire time to the point where he was almost drooling.He would gladly give a decade of his lifespan just so he could have his way with such a beauty for just a

    A hostile look flickered in Tyler’s eyes. “Don’t you dare lay a finger on one of my people!”His voice was severe, intimidating, and tinted with rage.Barton was immediately irked by Tyler’s comment.He assumed that Tyler was referring to Zara.How dare Tyler go back on his original promise!He had given his word that he would let Barton have his way with Zara, but now he was going back on his word and even shot him!However, he understood he was now deep inside Tyler's territory and that he simply did not have enough manpower with him tonight. Furthermore, his most trustworthy subordinate, Tab, had not returned yet.If he confronted Tyler head-on, things were not going to turn out well for him.With this thought in mind, he gritted his teeth and did what he could to suppress the boiling anger inside him. Then, he signaled for his men to put down their guns.“It’s a misunderstanding, just a silly misunderstanding!”He cackled as if nothing was wrong.Then, he grabbed the win

    Yvonne smiled and nodded. “Yeah, I got up early today and went to the nearby wet market to buy some vegetables. Now we can eat at home instead!”Kelsey was very delighted to hear this. “That’s great! I get to taste your delicious cooking today!”Just like her, Yvonne was born a noble lady and had never had to trouble herself with trifle work like cooking. However, she started to learn to cook ever since she got together with Adam.Over the years, she had been insisting on cooking for Adam, and with that, her culinary skills continued to improve.“Go on and watch some TV in the living room, it’s going to take a while before lunch is ready.” Yvonne motioned.Kelsey shook her head and offered to help. “Let me help you in the kitchen.”Yvonne seemed concerned. “Don't you still have a cold running? You need to get some more rest, I can handle this by myself.”Ever since she married Adam, she had become very confident in her cooking skills.Sometimes, she would even make meals for Ad

    “How is that possible?”Kelsey shook her head without hesitation to shoot down the idea.An unwavering look gleamed in her eyes as she declared, “Tyler loves me with all his heart, I am sure of it.”Even though she ended up betraying him and marrying Cooper in her previous life, Tyler protected her until his death.He was even willing to die for her.Before her death, she finally realized which one of them, Tyler or Cooper, truly loved her.She was upset that she had spent her life loving the wrong person.She lost her life for nothing.Unexpectedly, God gave her a chance to be reborn.She must seize her one true love in this life.She had to start over with Tyler this time.She was going to make the most out of her life and stay away from the scumbag, Cooper.Yvonne was taken abackIt was rare to see Kelsey so certain about something.Perhaps the scene she witnessed last night of Tyler and Zara coming out of the club and leaving together was all some sort of misunderstan

    After Kelsey finally managed to get to Lang Group Headquarters, she was completely soaked.She shivered from the old when she stepped into the lobby and felt the breeze of the air conditioner.Around the same time, she heard the sharp screech of a car brake coming from behind her.She turned around on instinct.It was a bright red Ferrari that had parked right outside the entrance of the building.It drew the attention of many passersby in the area.Kelsey stared blankly at the Ferrari. Soon, a dignified-looking woman stepped out of the driver's seat.She had a glorious coat of brown mixed with red curly hair and wore a black slim-fitting dress that seemed very expensive. The dress perfectly accentuated her curves.Her appearance was just as flawless as her figure.Zara Quest!Even though she was wearing a pair of sunglasses, Kelsey could recognize her at a glance.Always noble and always so full of herself!She was a shining star.She was draped from head to toe in luxury

    Zara's proclamation made Kelsey speechless.In her past life, Zara was indeed Tyler's fiancée.However, Zara later betrayed Tyler for money.Regardless, she had certainly been engaged to Tyler.Upon noting Kelsey’s silence, Zara grew bolder.She warned her severely, “Give up on your stupid ideas. If you ever try anything with my man again, it won’t end well for you….”Smack!Before Zara could finish threatening her, Kelsey retorted by delivering a slap across her face.Zara was flabbergasted.Her eyes widened like giant pearls. She stared at Kelsey for several seconds.She could not believe that Kelsey would have the guts to attack her in public!“You and Tyler are not even properly married yet and there has been no proper engagement. Who are you to call him your man?”Kelsey sneered with condescension. “You have no right to lecture me!”Besides, she was no mistress!In her previous life, the reason Zara even managed to get with Tyler was because Kelsey had conscientiousl

    Seeing how much thought Tyler put into her birthday, Susan felt confident that Kelsey was in good hands. Kelsey was lucky to marry a man like Tyler. The family was blessed to have Tyler. “All that matters is that you’re happy.” Tyler tended to Susan’s needs with respect. “I haven’t been this happy in a long time.” Susan nodded with a delightful smile. Kelsey could tell that Susan was a lot happier today. Susan had been feeling hurt since Charlie sent her to live in a nursing home. She felt like Charlie prioritized his side piece over his mother. It had been a while since Susan smiled again.The smile on Susan’s face was infectious. Kelsey’s face beamed. Tyler smiled along too. The lounge was filled with laughter and joy. After lunch, Tyler drove Kelsey and Susan to the nursing home. Susan, being elderly, fell asleep in the car. Tyler carried Susan back to her room in the nursing home. Kelsey could see how much Tyler cared about Susan. Tyler had to leave d

    “Please… Save my baby…” With Steve walking away, Megan pinned her hope on the restaurant staff. The restaurant manager and staff had witnessed Megan insulting Tyler and Kelsey. They would not risk upsetting Tyler by helping her. The restaurant staff looked the other way and went back to their own business. Megan held her belly as resentment consumed her. Tyler’s support was the only thing helping Kelsey to take Megan down. Otherwise, Megan would still be living her life. First, Charlie threw her out. Even Steve left her. Steven beat her up, causing her to lose her baby. Megan blamed everything on Kelsey. She would make Kelsey pay. Megan vowed to get her revenge. Losing her willpower to the pain, Megan lost consciousness. It was a kind female patron who called the emergency line for Megan. …Kelsey helped Susan into the lounge on the top floor. The place was definitely remarkable. The interior was lavishly appointed, with each piece of furniture carefully

    Steve mounted Megan and punched her face left and right. Megan would hurl abuse at him at first, but her tirade quickly turned into pleading. Steve smacked Megan over two dozen times, only stopping when Megan lay limp on the floor. He turned to Tyler, his grimacing face replaced with ingratiation. “I have taught the bitch a lesson, Mr. Lang.” Stoic-faced, Tyler did not spare a glance at Steve. Steve was irrelevant to Tyler. Tyler took strides to Kelsey and grabbed her hands. He murmured in her ear, “Do you feel better now?” Kelsey looked back at Megan’s swollen face and curled her lips. “She’s not worth my time anyway.” The constant struggles with Charlie and Megan over the years had hardened Kelsey emotionally.Megan’s verbal abuse was like water off a duck’s back. Besides, Charlie had kicked Megan out of the house. Megan’s words were nothing more than a desperate cry now. Steve was no better than Charlie, and Megan had it coming. Despite his age, Steve went

    Megan widened her eyes in disbelief at Steve. “D-Did you just hit me?” The last thing Megan expected was Steve to attack her. She thought she had compromised enough by dating a man so much older.Steve had been spoiling her rotten lately, giving her everything she wanted. Megan had gotten a big head. She thought she had Steve in the bag. Yet, to her dismay, Steve assaulted her. “Bitch!” Steve made a face of disgust. “Why did you slander Ms. Young?” In Steve’s opinion, Megan was more trouble than she was worth. Steve had gone to great lengths to curry favor with Tyler. Megan had gone and insulted Tyler’s woman right in his face. To make matters worse, Steve was caught up in the mess too. Steve regretted spoiling Megan, and she had gone in over her head. Megan’s eyes welled up. “Steve…” Her lips quivered as she looked at Steve with a hurt expression. Paying her no mind, Steve was occupied with ideas to please Tyler. “She’s just an escort to me, Mr. La

    Steve felt embarrassed. He had been wanting to make Tyler’s acquaintance, but a chance to meet him was hard to come by. Now that he ran into Tyler, Steve was determined to make the most out of it. “Let me be a host to you today, Mr. Lang—” Megan cut Steve off. “Mr. Lang, you might not know this, but Kelsey’s father is facing bankruptcy. He’s deep in debt too. Kelsey and her father are just going to be your burden. Don’t let Kelsey’s seemingly innocence fool you. They are just going to leech off you. My daughter, Josephine, is a nice and sensible girl. She’s a better companion than Kelsey. I’ll be delighted to introduce you to her.” Kelsey was impressed with Megan. Even now, Megan had not given up on pushing Josephine into Tyler’s arms. In Kelsey’s past life, Megan went to lengths to matchmake Josephine and Tyler. Nevertheless, Tyler never took an interest in Josephine. Megan was just as delusional as ever. However, Kelsey had no idea that Charlie owed a lot of mon

    “She’s just a bitch.” Megan hissed through clenched teeth, her jealousy showing. She had a hunch. The sudden change in the manager’s attitude toward Kelsey was likely due to Tyler. Megan wished she had Kelsey’s luck to meet a good-looking and rich man. Steve did not believe Megan. If Kelsey was just an ordinary woman, the manager would not take her up to the exclusive top floor. That was a height Steve could never reach despite a lifetime of hard work. However, Kelsey had no plans to accept the manager’s invitation to dine on the top floor. Since Charlie would not be attending or taking Susan out of the nursing home, Kelsey had no reason to dine alone on the top floor. Kelsey was better off getting back to her new office and ordering a takeout. Her discussion with Rosette about the costume design for Adrienne’s new film would continue this afternoon.However, the manager stopped her from leaving and apologized to her frantically. “Please see it in your heart not to

    It was upsetting enough for Kelsey since Charlie managed to deceive her once more. However, Megan had to gloat. “What did I tell you? I told you Charlie can’t afford this place. He can’t even show his face because he’s expected to pay the bill.” “Oh, quit it!” Kelsey glared at Megan. To think Kelsey would give her an attitude. Megan had Steve on her side now. She was no longer the other woman who lived off Charlie’s good graces. Surely, Megan earned the right to mock Charlie. “You’re the manager. Has St. Gills lost its exclusivity? It’s a disgrace that you let just about anyone in,” Megan said sarcastically. Kelsey retaliated. “Oh, aren’t you a picture of poise, Megan? With your sugar daddy, you can’t even make it past security.” “You!” Megan looked daggers at Kelsey. Livid, Megan commanded the manager, “Throw the bitch out now before I’ll make sure your establishment ceases to operate.” The manager narrowed his eyes on Kelsey and Megan. Judging by Kelsey’s mod

    “Kelsey, what are you doing here?” Megan asked harshly.With Megan and Steve approaching, the manager drew close and welcomed them. It then dawned on Kelsey that Megan and Steve were the VIPs who took the private lounge from Charlie. The manager explained the situation, and Megan sneered. “Charlie is going broke. I doubt he can afford to dine at St. Gill’s. With his mounting debts, he’s embarrassing himself when the time comes to pay the bill.” Kelsey narrowed her eyes. Charlie must be using Susan’s birthday as a pretext to ask for more money from Tyler since the family business was going bust. However, Tyler had given Charlie a large sum of money. It was puzzling how Charlie managed to burn through it. Kelsey snapped back with a smirk. “Even so, Charlie is paying with his own money, unlike some people who can’t live a day without a sugar daddy.” Color drained from Megan’s face. Kelsey was basically calling her a gold digger. Megan would not be in this position in th

    Kelsey and Rosette discussed the specifics of auditioning for Adrienne’s new film’s costume design role.As the time neared noon, Kelsey glanced at her phone. Tyler had not replied to her text message. It was nearly time for Susan’s birthday celebration at St. Gill’s. Kelsey decided to go ahead to St. Gill’s. While on the way, she gave Charlie a call to inform that Tyler would not be available for the celebration. Charlie’s voice reflected his disappointment. “What’s this? Why can’t Tyler make it?” Kelsey bit the bullet and explained, “I haven’t been able to reach him.” “I thought Tyler adored you. Why couldn’t you get in touch with him? Did you upset him?” Charlie grilled her. Kelsey refuted, “Things have been going well for us, thanks for asking. He has an emergency today.” Her bond with Tyler could not be stronger. Heck, they nearly went all the way this morning. The nerve of her father to put her down. Charlie was furious. “I knew I couldn’t count on you.” He
