Kelsey rarely attended such events. Ever since her mother's unfortunate accident, Charlie and Megan had been actively keeping her trapped inside the house.

Charlie always insisted on bringing his illegitimate daughter, Josephine, to all the social events the family was invited to.

Therefore, it was not surprising that most people at the venue did not recognize her.

Keysey frowned and stopped short when she heard all the nasty remarks they made about her.

Tyler gently palmed his hand around hers. She could feel his warmth surging into her palms and feel protected in his powerful presence.

With him by her side, she felt like she could take on the world.

She looked up and smiled tenderly at him.

“Wait!”

She was about to keep walking when Tyler suddenly stopped her.

She was confused. “What's wrong?”

“Your hair is messy.”

He said with a doting look, then he proceeded to smooth out her hair with the tips of his fingers and fixed her look in no time at all.

    Mistress?Kelsey was amused by the suggestion.She was already engaged with Tyler, she was the proper Mrs. Lang.It was ridiculous to accuse her of being a mistress!She cast Mia a look and asked, “Is your cousin Zara by any chance?”“Looks like you do know something at least. Why don’t you stay away from Mr. Lang from now on?” An envious look shone in Mia’s eyes. “If you don’t, it’s not just my cousin you have to worry about, even I won’t let you get away with it!”Kelsey observed how confrontative Mia was. She had a hunch that despite her claims of speaking up for Zara, Mia was secretly interested in Tyler as well.Unfortunately, neither she nor her cousin, Zara, stood a chance anymore, because Tyler was already her husband.Kelsey sneered and remarked contemptuously, “Go ahead, I’d like to see what you are going to do to me!”She was blatantly taunting her, there was no chance she was going to keep away from Tyler!“I have been nice enough to you, don’t push your luck!” Mi

    “No, that wasn’t what I meant to say.” Cleo shook his head profusely before regarding her with an attentive look. “I was just thinking that you must be something special to become Tyler's partner.”Tyler was well known for being picky when choosing a partner because he had very high standards. No common woman would ever attract his interest.Even Zara could not draw his attention.Since Kelsey managed to capture his interest, there must be something about her that was exceptional.“You flatter me, Mr. Quest.” Kelsey smiled graciously.She was just lucky because she was the first person who had claimed Tyler’s heart. She was his first love after all.The two talked briefly before the stoic voice of a man cut their conversation short.“What are you two talking about?”Kelsey was taken aback and quickly turned around.She was greeted by Tyler’s tall and striking profile. He had shown up at one point without her realizing it."Tyler!” she cried out in delight upon recognizing him

    There were all sorts of delicacies in the buffet section on the second floor.All the guests invited to the event tonight were free to help themselves to the buffet.Kelsey was starving by this point.She was immediately attracted to the vast array of delicacies presented on rows of trays in the buffet section.“What do you want to eat?” Tyler asked gently.“I want some barbecue!” Kelsey stared at the grill in the distance and felt like she was about to drool.Tyler frowned.“It’s not healthy, you’ll get sick if you eat too much barbecue.” He prompted gently.Kelsey pleaded with him. “I’ll just eat a little bit just to get a taste, alright?”Tyler gave in when he noted the sparkle in her eyes. “Wait for me here, I'll get some for you.”With that, he went toward the grill to get a serving for Kelsey.Kelsey waited expectantly for him. She was looking forward to indulging herself in some freshly grilled meat skewers.That was when she spotted someone from the corner of her ey

    Kelsey plunged into the pool and created a giant splash.A torrent of water rushed at her from every direction.She choked on the sudden surge of water filling her nostril and sank to the bottom of the pool, then she began to struggle.The more she struggled, the more restricted her movements became.It felt as if there was a force constantly pulling her back into the pool.She turned around to inspect what it was and noticed the hem of her dress caught inside the mouth of a drain at the bottom of the pool.She yanked as hard as she could but it would not budge.Kelsey was running out of breath at this point and could feel her strength slowly draining out of her body.All she could hear was the frantic cries of people gathered around the pool, there was even the occasional flash of a camera.“Oh no, someone fell into the pool!”Then, there was another enormous splash, soon followed by more people crying out hysterically.“Mr. Lang jumped inside! He’s going to save her!”“It

    There were a lot of people gathered by the edge of the pool.All kinds of looks were cast on Tyler and Kelsey.Kelsey was drenched. Tyler had thrown his coat around her and also had her wrapped in his arms.He walked past the crowd, across countless meandering eyes.Everyone subconsciously made space and backed away from Tyler when they felt the aura pulsing from him.Shawn hurriedly went up to him. “Boss…”“Call a doctor!”That was the last thing Kelsey heard before she passed out....When she opened her eyes again, she was blinded by the fluorescent light beating down on her from the ceiling.She looked around and found herself lying in a luxurious-decorated bedroom.She shot up from the bed and accidentally tossed the blanket. When it slid off her shoulder, she found herself dressed in a burgundy silk nightgown.It was tailored with a deep V-cut that left her cleavage in full display.She was taken aback by the sultry display.Who changed her into the nightgown?She

    Kelsey was puzzled after Tyler set her back on top of the bed.Then, he answered while stroking her hair, “We’re in the penthouse suite at the Imperial Hotel.”Kelsey was taken aback.She was surprised to find that they were still at the Imperial Hotel.“The doctor came over just now. Fortunately, there is nothing to worry about,” Tyler remarked tenderly.As he spoke, he began to unbutton his shirt, revealing his toned chest. His chest was lightly tanned and the outlines of the bulge of his muscles were especially prominent.Kelsey blushed instantly. “Don’t tell me you want to…”Tyler had taken off his clothes by this point. The way he stared intently into her eyes made her blush.She felt her nerves tightening in that instant.“We’re spending the night here.”Tyler announced while lying down and taking her into his arms.Kelsey had always had a curvy figure.The way the burgundy nightgown draped across the outlines of her figure made her seem especially irresistible.

    “What's wrong?” Kelsey asked as soon as she noticed Tyler being upset.“I knew it, it was Mia.” Tyler gripped his phone tightly and scowled.“It’s her?" Kelsey was amused but not entirely surprised.It came as no surprise that Mia was a relative of Zara.They were both mean and ruthless.“Don't worry, I will make things right for you!” Tyler declared vehemently while suppressing his anger.After that, he proceeded to make a few more calls....The next morning, Zara had just woken up.Her uncle, Christopher, had come to visit along with her cousin, Mia.“Zara, you have to do something to help your cousin.”Zara was puzzled by the sudden request. “What happened?"Christopher grew frantic. “She was exposed for cheating on her exams and had been expelled from her university!”Zara was distraught. “How did that happen?”She was not surprised to hear that Mia had been cheating. Mia had never properly studied ever since she was a child. She had always gotten by by having somebo

    Zara was certainly not going to risk having her uncle escalate this to her father.She quickly stopped him. “Wait, calm down, I never said I wasn’t going to help.”Christopher gave her a look. “Are you going to help?”Zara strained a smile. “I’ll call Tyler, are you happy now?”Christopher stayed silent.She proceeded to call Tyler just to prove a point to Christopher.The reason she was bold enough to do this was that she was sure Tyler would not answer her call.Every single time she called Tyler in the past, he had never picked up.After this, she would come up with something to dismiss Christopher and Mia.To her surprise, the call was connected this time.It was a female voice who answered instead, “Zara, do you need something from my husband?”Zara immediately recognized Kelsey’s voice.It was morning and there could only be one explanation behind Kelsey answering the call instead of Tyler.It meant that the two of them spent the night together last night.Zara scow

    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
