The next morning, Kelsey was awakened by the warm glow of sunrise.It was rare for her to enjoy a good night’s sleep.She slowly opened her eyes and stared at the beautifully ornamented ceiling above.Was this Tyler's villa?Suddenly, memories of last night swarmed her mind.Last night, a few hooligans ganged up on her at the parking lot outside the Lang Group building. They were going to assault her but Tyler showed up just in time to save her.That was so close!After that, Tyler took her back to his place where she spent the night with him.She recalled that it was the first time Tyler spent the night with her. They had cuddled underneath the blanket all night.However, Tyler was nowhere to be seen by the time she woke up.If not for the depressed mark on the bed as well as the distinctive smell of Tyler still lingering in the air, Kelsey would have thought that what happened last night was all a dream.She had snuggled up all night with Tyler!The thought of it brought
“Whoever was behind this has to be sick in the head!” Yvonne frowned and advised Kelsey. “Kels, you'd better stay with Tyler for now, at least he can keep you safe. We still don’t know if those dangerous men will try again after their plan was foiled the first time.”Kelsey made a face. “I think so too.”Upon reaching this note, she paused briefly before enquiring, “By the way, what happened to you? It sounded like you were crying when you called me last night.”Her original plan last night was to meet Yvonne at the bar to check on how she was doing.Since it was no longer safe for her to leave the house, she could only do it on the phone for the time being.Yvonne sighed exasperatedly upon hearing this. “It’s my mother-in-law, she’s being a real pain again!”Kelsey grew concerned. “Did she leave her hometown to come visit again?”Yvonne's mother-in-law was a notorious troublemaker.Every time she showed up at Adam's place, there was bound to be drama.She would go on a rant a
Now that she had a second chance at life, she could not bear to watch her best friend being exploited by her husband's family again.It was going to end with Yvonne having everything taken away from her, even the child she gave birth to!“Yvonne, have you ever thought about moving out for now?” She carefully suggested.Yvonne scowled dejectedly. “Where else can I move to? I had a giant fallout with my parents when I married Adam and now I don’t have any other friends or family to turn to other than you.”It was a big part of why she had to silently suffer the torment of her husband’s family after they got married. She did not have friends, family, or a home to turn to for help.Kelsey was in a similar situation. She also had a home she could not return to. How was she supposed to help Yvonne?After that, she thought for a moment and said, “How about this? I will pay you back the two hundred thousand dollars you borrowed me last time so you can find a place to move to for now.”Y
Kelsey could not contain her joy from bursting out the moment she saw Tyler.“You're back?” she grinned and greeted him with smiling eyes.She had pretty much thrown her weight against him for a hug.Tyler seemed slightly taken aback by her enthusiastic welcome.He stood in place and stared profoundly at her for several seconds before he noticed she was not wearing shoes.He immediately frowned. “Why aren’t you wearing shoes?”His voice was filled with concern and a tinge of disapproval.Kelsey pouted. “Because I can’t wait to see you!”She was still in the middle of drafting her design when she heard the roar of the car engine, signaling Tyler’s return.With that, she immediately sprinted downstairs and could hardly bother with putting on a shoe.Without a word, Tyler carried her in his arms and headed toward the couch in the living room.He gently settled her on the couch and squatted in front of her. Then, he gently inspected her feet.After making sure that her feet wer
All the clerks in the store put on their best, most charming smiles to welcome their customers.“Sir, how can I help you?”“Get her everything that she likes!”Tyler had put Kelsey down but still would not let go of her. Even when he was addressing the store clerk, he would not take his eyes off her even for a second.All the clerks in the store were filled with envy.What a lucky lady!The man was a dashing prince and rich. More importantly, he only had eyes for her.From the moment he entered the store till now, his gaze was solely fixed on Kelsey.It was only at this point that the clerk reluctantly stopped looking at the handsome man and turned her attention to Kelsey. “Miss, what kind of style do you like? Is there any specific brand you prefer? We recently received a new batch of dresses shipped directly from Pavis!”Kelsey chuckled to herself when she noted how the clerks could not take their eyes off Tyler. It seemed as if they had just noticed her existence.She shea
“Hubby, what do you think about this?”Kelsey smiled radiantly while twirling in front of Tyler to show off the dress.Tyler almost had a nosebleed right then and there.It was incredibly seductive!It was a wonderful dress, but it was too short and revealed too much cleavage.If Kelsey walked out in this dress, she would be far too exposed.He did not want other people gawking at her perfect figure.The sight of her dressed in such a sexy dress should be reserved for his eyes only.“Don't you like it?”Upon noting Tyler’s hesitance in expressing his thoughts, Kelsey assumed he did not like it.With that, she picked out another outfit. This time, she went for a blue-colored suspender skirt.It was fashioned very elegantly and full of personality.This skirt did a better job of reflecting her usual simplistic charm.Kelsey figured that Tyler may not be into her sudden change of style with the first dress.She deemed that he must prefer her usual brisk and refreshing style.
Tyler stayed silent the entire time. With his hand clutching a dozen bags, he continued his march.“What's wrong?” Kelsey caught up with him. She was still very confused.Tyler still did not respond. He swiftly took her hand and returned to the car with her.As soon as the door was closed, he turned around and suddenly pinned Kelsey against the seat.Kelsey barely had time to react before she felt his entire weight against her, followed by the sensation of his lips pressed against hers.She was immediately swept away by the intensity of his passionate kiss, overpowering her.“Hm…”With her lips sealed, she could hardly catch her breath and had to take a moment before she came back to her senses.Tyler had kissed her!She was not going to resist him, but this was a little too sudden! Could he not wait a little at least?The intensity of his kiss continued to rise…It was to the point where it seemed like Tyler wanted to absorb her into his body.Kelsey felt like she was abou
Kelsey frowned sharply and still could not shake off her nerves.“Why don't we get a room? There are a lot of hotels around here.” She suggested hastily.Doing it in a hotel was better than doing it inside a car.Tyler cast a deep, profound look at her.After a while, he finally let her go.“Sorry, I got ahead of myself!”His voice was hoarse by this point. After he crawled back into the driver’s seat, he took out a cigarette.The lighter produced a sharp click when he flicked it.Then, he lowered the window and took a slow, steady drag.The cigarette smoke clouded mysteriously around his features.Kelsey sat up and smoothed out her dress. After she finished collecting herself, she turned to glance at Tyler.Tyler was irresistibly handsome with the cigarette dangling between his lips. She was enchanted just by looking at him.She found her heartbeat accelerating.After a faint blush came upon her cheeks, she asked, “Where are we going?”Why was he so leisurely smoking now
