Kelsey nodded in contemplation. Her maple syrup was bubbling in the saucepan. Kelsey quickly turned her attention back to her cooking. Without hesitation, she lifted the lid and scalded herself. “Argh!” she exclaimed in pain. Tyler frowned in concern. He turned off the stove and turned on the cold tap. Tyler grabbed her hand and ran it under cold water. “Why were you careless? Does it hurt?”He reprimanded her worriedly. “It hurts.” Kelsey nodded in distress, her eyes welling up. She was occupied with planning fun activities for the day to remember her saucepan on the stove. The boiling maple syrup scalded her when she reached to lift the lid from the saucepan. Tyler examined her fingers. They were red and swollen. He carried her and put her down on the living room couch. Tyler anxiously rummaged through the place for a first-aid kit. Finally, he dug out the kit and retrieved the cream to treat burns. “Come closer. Let me see the burn on your finger

The following day after her return to Abervale, Kelsey met with her best friend, Yvonne. It had been a while since they last met, and Yvonne looked more haggard than ever. Kelsey understood that things had been rough on Yvonne. The latter suffered a miscarriage, caught her husband cheating, and endured constant bullying from her mother-in-law. Before Kelsey could cheer Yvonne up, the latter said, “Adam has agreed to move along with the divorce.” Kelsey congratulated her. “This is a good thing.” Since Adam went along with the divorce, Yvonne would soon be free from the cheating bastard. However, Yvonne remained miserable. Kelsey was worried. “What’s the matter? Don’t tell me you change your mind about divorcing his ass?” Yvonne shook her head. “Not at all, but Adam is demanding our house in exchange for the divorce.” “What?” Startled, Kelsey furrowed her brows. “You bought the house together with Adam. Why should he gain full ownership of the property?” Kelsey re

Adam could not afford Rachel’s lifestyle after all. By marrying Adam, Rachel would become the next Yvonne and struggle in poverty. Rachel was smart to keep her affair with Adam a secret while keeping things real with her sugar daddy, Tobias. “Rachel is pregnant. I doubt her relationship with Adam can be kept under wraps for long,” Yvonne uttered, confused. “Why don’t you tell Adam that you’ll expose his affair with Rachel if you won’t give you your cut of the property, Yvonne?” Kelsey gave her an idea. Adam cheated on Yvonne in the first place. Surely, Yvonne deserved justice. “I have thought about taking him to court, but I don’t have proof of their affair.” Yvonne was frustrated. Rachel was a professional homewrecker. She juggled between Adam and Tobias. Given that both Adam and Tobias were married, Rachel had been careful not to get caught during dates. Hence, it would not be easy to catch Adam cheating. Yvonne had a consultation with an attorney. If she cou

With Tyler’s help, Kelsey introduced Sam to Yvonne successfully.Sam took on the case to find proof of Adam’s affair. “You’re the best, babe! You have done me and Yvonne a huge favor!” Kelsey jumped into Tyler’s arms and pulled the stops to please him. Tyler looked deep into her eyes. “How do you plan on repaying me?” Without another word, Kelsey got on her tiptoes and pecked on his lips. “Is that it?” Tyler wanted more. “What more do you want?” Kelsey asked cheekily, her brow raised. Tyler flashed a bad-boy smile. “I’ll follow your lead tonight…” Kelsey took a minute to digest his words. Her cheeks turned flushed. “You… Mgh…” Before she could protest, Tyler locked his hand behind her head and sealed her lips. Kelsey lifted her chin shyly and lost herself in the kiss. Tyler’s lips grazed against her while tasting her nectar. His masculine scent enveloped her. As he reluctantly broke away from the kiss, his breath coming in ragged gasps, Kelsey could not b

Tyler’s eyes were emotionless. “If you can’t find her, what makes you think I can?” Even Zara’s parents could not track her down. Tyler, an outsider, would have tougher luck getting to her. Ava was not pleased. “How can you say that, Tyler? Zara is only in this position because she took a bullet for you. Besides, our families are on good terms. We were going to strengthen our bond through marriage. Your father even promised us that you would see through your responsibility and help Zara to walk again.” Tyler frowned harder. He was not trying to shirk from his responsibility, but Zara’s constant fuss left a bad taste in his mouth. Tyler rubbed between his brows. “I’ll get Shawn on it now.” He believed he had fulfilled his obligations, but Zara’s parents were having none of it. Before Ava could point fingers, Carlos snatched the phone from her. “My daughter went missing because of you. What’s the meaning of getting your subordinate to find her? Do you think we can’t affor

It was late into the night. Tyler drove around the streets. He gripped the steering wheel, his eyes sweeping glances outside the car window. There was not a shadow in sight. He had been to places Zara possibly frequented. She was nowhere to be found. Tyler was annoyed. He had intended to find Zara quickly and report back to her parents without delay.That way, he could be home with Kelsey soon enough. However, he could not locate Zara despite the long search. It was late. Where could Zara have gone? Tyler grabbed his phone frustratedly and dialed Zara’s number. It came as no surprise that he could not get through to her. He was going mad. Instead of being at home with his wife at this hour of the night, he went across the city to search for an irrelevant woman. It was a waste of his time. Tyler typed out a message and sent it to Zara. “Show yourself in 30 minutes, or stay hidden forever.” He did not have the time and patience to play hide and seek wit

Tyler ordered, “Form a team and head there now. Don’t let her hurt herself. Find her and bring her back to the Quests. No need to report back to me.” His finger went straight to end the call. Caesar posed a question before Tyler hung up. “Mr. Lang, is Ms. Quest jumping off the cliff to make you marry her?” Tyler pursed his lips. “She intends to jump.” Caesar had no words. “No way. Are you honestly not going to do something about it? What if Ms. Quest gets hurt? You don’t know what women are capable of when they are upset, especially Ms. Quest.” Tyler replied, “That’s why I’m sending you with a team. Don’t let her jump.” Since Caesar was seeing someone, Tyler believed he was a better fit for the job than Shawn. Yet, Caesar was already getting ahead of himself. Caesar was put in the spot. “What if she really jumps?” There was no stopping Zara when she went on a rampage. It would be difficult for Caesar and his team to intervene. Tyler said without a doubt, “She won’t

Tyler locked Kelsey in his embrace. His towering build was a stark contrast to her slender figure. With a tender look on Tyler’s face, he rested his forehead against hers. “I love hugging you.” Kelsey blinked, caught off guard by his sudden affection. She was curious about Zara’s whereabouts. She wondered if Tyler had found her. However, she could not bring herself to ask. The mention of Zara could ruin the moment between her and Tyler. Tyler carried Kelsey back to the bedroom and lay down with her. Kelsey was surprised. “Aren’t you going to shower?” Tyler stared at her quietly. “I’ll go once you’re asleep.” He did not want to be away from her. The only thing on her mind was to hold her tight. Kelsey could talk him out of it. Still, she felt safe in his arms. Kelsey closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. Tyler tucked Kelsey in and got up to take a shower in the bathroom. It was late after his shower. Tyler was tired. He went to bed while spooning Ke

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
