“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. The c

“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

“Since Tyler is your fiancé, you should tell him to cut off Kelsey entirely. It’s unacceptable that he would ruin your cousin for the sake of another woman,” Christopher expressed sharply.“I will, Uncle!” Zara stated with a perfunctory smile.Deep down, she was grumbling about how things turned out.Did they assume that she did not want Tyler to break things off with Kesley?Unfortunately, she was never Tyler's fiancée to begin with.Tyler had never taken her seriously.This entire time, she had always staked her reputation in her family and the entertainment circle on her speculated relationship with Tyler.Even though there was never anything between them, she would still do everything she could to get herself associated with Tyler. One way or another, she had to keep the connection with Tyler going.…Meanwhile, inside the suite on the top floor of the hotel.Tyler had just stepped out of the shower when he marched over to Kelsey and snatched the phone from her.

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

Kelsey frowned. “What are you up to now?” She doubted Charlie was so nice to want the family to be together for her grandmother, Susan’s birthday. It was probably an excuse to get close to Tyler. Since Charlie got together with Megan, Kelsey could count on her finger the number of times he had been to the nursing home to visit Susan. Kelsey could not remember the last time Charlie celebrated Susan’s birthday. Charlie could not even remember Susan’s birthdate. Yet, Charlie was so kind to throw her a party. Kelsey could only suspect that Charlie had ulterior motives. “How can you say that about me, Kelsey? I’m your father. Am I wrong to throw your grandmother a birthday party?” Charlie reprimanded. Kelsey was skeptical. “You’re not wrong, but…” It was uncertain whether he had Susan’s interest at heart. “But what?” Charlie asked. He started blaming himself. “I know that I listened to Megan and neglected you and Mom. I’ve gotten rid of her. Now, I just want to be a go

With a predatory glint in his eyes, Tyler pressed his lips against Kelsey’s.“I’ll take your silence as your consent.” “Hang on!” Kelsey pushed him away. She meant business since it was about his sleepwalking last night. “I have a question.” “What is it?” Tyler asked in a raspy voice, his lips still lingering across her skin. His hands eagerly pulled her gown off her. “Do you sleepwalk?” Kelsey asked. Tyler paused, his eyes bearing a weight of emotions. Kelsey knew she was right on the money. Tyler had known about his sleepwalking. “Did you know you were sleepwalking last night?” Kelsey said while fixating earnestly on him. She was more concerned about his health. Tyler seemed healthy. Yet, he wandered off in a sleeping state. Judging by Tyler’s response, it was not his first rodeo. Generally speaking, sleepwalking was associated with trauma or unresolved issues. Kelsey suspected that Tyler had been through some kind of trauma, or something in his past wa

Tyler opened his eyes abruptly. Bare and dominant, he loomed above Kelsey while his penetrating gaze looked deep into her soul.Lost in the heat of his kiss, Kelsey opened her eyes in confusion at his sudden pause. She met his profound gaze. Kelsey’s heart skipped a beat. Her breath hitched. She stared at the man towering over her in disbelief, her eyes bulging. Tyler was awake. He examined her, his eyes scouring every inch of her body. Once he was certain that it was Kelsey, Tyler was relieved. “I’m home, babe,” he uttered with a sigh of relief. Feeling assured, he closed his eyes and rested his head on her shoulder. He filled his lungs with her familiar scent. Kelsey was taken aback, but her head gradually cleared. She thought that Tyler would not stop their little bed activity. However, Tyler stayed in the same position for a while. His steady breathing came soon after. He fell asleep. Kelsey was in disbelief. Since he wanted her so badly, Kelsey ass

Worried, Kelsey followed Tyler in case he hurt himself or fell off the stairs. He was not in a conscious state after all. Kelsey would not be so abrupt as to wake him from his sleepwalking. She was aware that waking a sleepwalker could lead to shock or other health problems.Kelsey stuck close behind Tyler and made sure he got up the stairs safely. Tyler returned to their bedroom and lay on the bed. Kelsey drew close for a look. The soft moonlight streamed through the French windows, casting a hazy glow over his defined face.Tyler lay there motionlessly, his eyes closed.Kelsey watched him sleep tenderly. For a moment, she drooled over him. However, she quickly frowned at the smell of alcohol on Tyler. Kelsey went to open the window to let in some airflow, dispersing the fumes of liquor. She then picked out a fresh pair of pajamas from the closet for Tyler.Tyler would need a change of briefs too. However, Kelsey’s cheeks burned when she pulled his brief draw

Kelsey returned to the villa she shared with Tyler. She intended to tell Tyler how her day with her best friend had gone. Charles was somehow caught in the crossfire. Yvonne’s mother-in-law accused her of having an affair with Charles which did a number to his reputation. Kelsey wanted to ask Tyler about his opinion on returning Charles’ favor. Since Charles was Tyler’s childhood friend, Tyler must know him best. However, Tyler had business plans to attend to, so he would not be home for dinner.Kelsey was alone in the upstairs bedroom, occupied with all related matters involving her new business venture. Since Kelsey and Rosette were going to audition to design costumes for Adrienne’s new film, Kelsey felt it was essential to study the genre of the new film and Adrienne’s past fashion choices. Time passed. By the time Kelsey shut her laptop, it was eleven at night. Rising to her feet, she stretched and walked out of the bedroom. Kelsey was on her way downstairs

“I’m sorry, Kelsey. I’m sorry to ruin lunch,” Yvonne murmured. Kelsey put her arm around her shoulder. “Why are you apologizing to me? Charles told me what he needed me for. It’s okay to skip lunch.” She paused and looked at Yvonne, her head tilted. “But Yvonne, you seem to have changed.” “How so?” Yvonne asked with a raised brow. “You’ve become composed and cunning now.” Kelsey said with admiration, “But it’s a good thing. I don’t want you to be Adam and his family’s doormat. You didn’t marry him to be his slave.” Yvonne curled her lips. “I’ve been through a lot, but I’ve learned a lot too. I had to learn from my mistakes.” She used to walk on eggshells around her husband and mother-in-law. She gave them too much leeway, and they walked all over her. In the future, Yvonne would not be so dumb as to let others hurt her again. She needed to stand up for herself. … Kelsey dropped Yvonne back home. Before, Yvonne would cry to Kelsey for hours after Agatha humiliated
