Kelsey’s vision turned dark in an instant and she passed out.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself lying in a presidential suite located on the top floor of a hotel.

She rubbed her bleary eyes in confusion and surveyed the place in complete disbelief.

The last thing she remembered was dining with Tyler in a private restaurant by the sea. How did she suddenly find herself in a place like this?

Then, she recalled what happened moments before she lost consciousness.

She had been assaulted while going to the washroom and passed out!

Who could it be?

Someone who knew that she was having lunch with Tyler in that place and was bold enough to do this to her in Tyler’s presence!

Could it be Cooper? Perhaps it was Josephine?

Her mind was still running through the list of suspects when the door of the presidential suite was opened.

A man with gray hair who looked to be in his fifties stepped inside.

He was accompanied by a host of large, muscular bodyguards. There were

    “Mr. Vernon, you’re not going to make an enemy out of Mr. Lang, are you?” Kelsey confronted his gaze and asked out of nowhere.Mr. Vernon sneered sarcastically. “Did you think I’d be afraid of that brat?”Kelsey grimaced. “You might not be afraid of him, but surely there is no need to stir something up just for the sake of a woman, don’t you agree?”Mr. Vernon laughed roaringly upon hearing this.“You are right, there is certainly no need for me to make an enemy out of Mr. Lang for a woman! Still… It also depends on what kind of woman we’re talking about.”Upon reaching this note, his expression suddenly became especially sinister. His tone dropped to a slow drawl as well.“I have already done my research. Mr. Lang has publicly called off the engagement with you and you don’t have any relations with him now. Do you think he will oppose me for the sake of a woman he’s already having his fill of fun with?”Kelsey was taken aback by this piece of information.As it turned out, the

    While approaching Kelsey, Mr. Vernon began to undress himself.“Must be nice to be young. Your skin is as fair as the day you were born.”He savored Kelsey’s beauty with a perverted expression. Soon, his coarse fingers began to run across Kelsey’s cheeks while he clicked his tongue with pleasure.Kelsey felt goosebumps running all over her body.She would rather die than be taken advantage of by such a perverted old man.“What you are doing is illegal! Even if my father accepted your dowry, I haven't agreed to marry you, aren’t you worried about me reporting you to the police after this?”Although her consciousness was slowly being corrupted by the effects of the drug, she did what she could to save herself.Mr. Vernon only grew more arrogant and laughed roaringly upon hearing her vacant threats.“Report me to the police? After I'm done with you, I'll have you thrown into the sea to sleep with the fishes, then I won’t have to worry about you calling the police!” he stated with

    Tyler strode to the bed.He observed the way Kelsey lay on the bed with her dress torn into tatters.His brows were furrowed tightly.Then, he immediately removed his suit jacket and wrapped it snugly around her body before bending over to carry her in his arms.Kelsey could feel herself enveloped in his familiar scent clinging onto the fabric of the suit jacket.Just like that, she suddenly felt secure.She knew that with him around, nothing ill would happen to her.At the same time, the familiar scent of his body had also stoked the flame of desire that erupted deep within her.She moaned softly and plunged into Tyler's arms with her head still spinning. She was filled with the immense desire to have Tyler pin her on the bed and have his way with her.Tyler’s expression darkened when he noticed how odd her behavior was.He turned to Mr. Vernon with a sharp look in his eyes. “What did you do to her?”“I… It’s…” Mr. Vernon buckled underneath the pressure of his intent gaze a

    “Would you like me to help you?” Tyler growled in her ears, his voice primal.As soon as he said that, Kelsey did not take another second longer to kiss him.Tyler was slightly taken aback by the swiftness, then he palmed the back of her head and matched her intensity.Kelsey's lips tasted as sweet as ever on his, it was a taste he could never forget.As Tyler returned Kelsey’s kiss, she became increasingly drunk with passion.At this precise moment, nothing else was on her mind other than raw pleasure.She tilted her head upward to him and reciprocated his advances.She would like to make out with him forever, but that was when Tyler unexpectedly pulled away.Her eyes had grown misty with lust at this point. She looked at him feeling confused.Her lips had become swollen from making out and she was panting for breath.More than anything else, she was puzzled. Why did he stop suddenly?Tyler lifted her chin and stared deeply into her eyes. “Who am I?”Kelsey had to do a dou

    Tyler's eyes were filled with a troubled look.Then, Kelsey began to whimper again.She would not stop twisting and turning.Tyler held her steady in his arms and pressed his lips closely against her ears to whisper to her, “What is it, Kels?”Kelsey moaned. “I’m burning…and so turned on!”Tyler observed her beet red complexion and the sweat trickling down her forehead. He seemed to have realized something at last.What he finally became aware of had completely caught him off guard!He could not believe that Mr. Vernon would use such a drug on Kelsey.What a gross old pervert!It seemed like crippling him was not sufficient as a punishment.He could not help but feel a terrible throb of pain deep inside him when he observed the way Kelsey was suffering.He sighed deeply and pressed his weight against her again.Throughout the entire night, he completely drained himself to satisfy Kelsey’s urges.It was only until dawn when Kelsey’s restlessness finally subsided.The two f

    Now that Yvonne had fallen out with her parents because of Adam, she no longer had anyone to help her.Every time she faced hardship, the only one she could vent to was Kelsey.“Kels, I... I… Adam hit me…” she stammered through her speech and wrenched the words out with anguish and hurt.Kelsey was taken aback. “What did you just say? Adam... How could he… How could he hit you?”She never imagined that her best friend would become a victim of domestic violence.Yvonne sobbed. “Where are you now? I want to see you!”“I…” Kelsey suddenly stuttered, she did not know how to respond.She could not possibly tell her that she was still at Tyler's house after they just had a night of passion and indulgence.Especially not when Yvonne was going through a hard time after being abused by her husband.Kelsey decided she had to rush over to Yvonne to offer some comfort.“Where are you? I'll come to you!” she asked decisively.Yvonne’s tone was calm as she replied, “I’m at… I’m on the top

    By the time Kelsey arrived at Mount Kineu by cab, it was raining cats and dogs.She did not have to scale to the top of the mountain because she spotted the lonely figure of Yvonne in a pavilion at the foot of the mountain.“Yvonne!”Kelsey's heart dropped the moment she saw Yvonne and she immediately ran toward her best friend.When she reached her, she realized that Yvonne had been drenched from head to toe.She must have been on the mountaintop when it started raining and had to come down to seek shelter from the rain.However, the rain must have been heavier than she expected, which resulted in her being completely drenched by the time she found shelter.Kelsey made sure to inspect her carefully and upon noting that she had not sustained any injuries, she heaved a sigh of relief.It seemed like Adam had not struck her hard enough to leave wounds.“Kels!” Yvonne grew emotional the moment she saw Kelsey. Her eyes teared up.Kelsey immediately removed her coat and threw it a

    “He cares too much for his mother!” Yvonne's eyes darkened as she expressed with a fit of irritation, “It was only after she moved in that it occurred to me that he is a complete mama’s boy!”Kelsey argued. “Even if he did love his mother, it does not justify him hitting his wife, does it? Besides, you have done so much for him in the past, how could he do this to you?”Tears stirred in Yvonne's eyes. “Before we got married, I asked him who was more important to him—me or his mother. Just to please me, he lied and told me that I was more important! Now, I am starting to realize that I don’t hold any significant place in his heart at all and never will!”Kelsey drew a deep breath.As it turned out, Yvonne was just like her. They were the type to be blinded by love and believed everything a man said.It ended with them getting tricked and losing everything.She would not let her best friend repeat the same mistake in her lifetime.“Yvonne, why don't you stay in my mother's apartme

    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

    “Didn’t you hear what Yvonne said? She’ll go ahead with the divorce. She doesn’t want to stick around until you take everything from her.” Kelsey snapped an angry look at Agatha. “Your son is the one with an affair. Don’t put this on Yvonne. Save your breath for your son. Yvonne is the victim. Who are you to accuse her?” Kelsey could not stand Agatha. Agatha placed herself above others and used Yvonne as a punching bag. Charles tipped the restaurant manager the wink. The restaurant manager led a security team to Agatha. “This is a public place, not your playground. Please leave now.” Agatha was humiliated to be thrown out of the premises. Instead of breaking down and apologizing, Yvonne calmly agreed to the divorce. Agatha did not see it coming. She needed to talk to her son. Clearly, Agatha had to find new ways to keep Yvonne in line. “Hmph! In that case, I should ask your parents if they know about their daughter filing for divorce,” Agatha said. In Agatha’s opi

    Agatha’s son, Adam, was the one who had an affair. Yet, Agatha made Adam out to be the victim instead. Yvonne became the wicked woman who cheated on Adam. Kelsey racked her brain to think of ways to prove Yvonne’s innocence. Yvonne broke her silence.“Tell me. What are you trying to achieve?” Agatha’s big fuss was met with Yvonne’s nonchalant reply. For a moment, Agatha was in a daze. In the past, Agatha often berated Yvonne until the latter had no choice but to apologize. Agatha had always kept Yvonne in line through aggressive methods. Yet now, Yvonne asked her what she wanted to do. Instead of having a meltdown, Yvonne carried herself with ease. Agatha narrowed her eyes and said bitterly, “We pride ourselves on our decency. We can’t put up with your cheating. Just finalize the divorce and get out of my family. I don’t want to carry your shame.” She glared at Yvonne in disdain. “Fine.” Yvonne readily agreed. Yvonne understood that Agatha was a pro at throwi
