At this moment, Keith felt his breathing stopped, and his mind went blank. Perhaps it was because Summer had revealed the truth—Keith didn't understand love after all.In fact, how could Keith understand it? He had received harsh training to become the heir from a young age. Due to an accident, he ended up killing his brother with his own hands and was shunned by his family. He had never experienced love. Naturally, he wouldn't know how to love people.As he grew older, he received affection due to his status and prominent appearance. However, it was adult affection. It wasn't genuine love but merely superficial.As if he was submerged in a vat of black ink for a long time, Keith was stained with darkness all over. He couldn't get rid of it, no matter how hard he tried. Indeed, he had become numb and heartless. He wouldn't care about love anymore.Keith raised his head after a long silence. His expression was a little strange. He frowned deeply and said with a half-smile, "Mayb
Of course, Keith didn't finally become the heir through his own hard work, but rather due to that "accidental murder" accident. Keith was both sad and happy after that accident.He was sad because he had killed his brother, Troy. As long as one's humanity existed, one would feel sadness.But at the same time, he was happy that he didn't need to compete anymore because he had obtained the true position of heir. Keith became the heir of the Ritter family after Troy died.However, he had never once relaxed after the inheritance. He still retained his predatory nature, just like when competing with James now. He wanted to snatch Summer from him."You're mine." Keith looked extremely determined now, like a cheetah locked onto an antelope on the prairie. He wouldn't stop chasing until he caught his prey!Summer couldn't help feeling a chill run down her spine. It didn't feel good to be targeted by someone at all. She nervously gripped the back of her chair and said cautiously, "Calm d
It was impossible for geese to voluntarily consume so much food. Like any other animal, they would stop eating after feeling full. However, the geese had to be fed fat in order to obtain large livers. Hence, the method of force-feeding was employed. Regardless of whether the geese felt full, they would be fed three to four times more than their normal intake.Summer shook her head and refused, "I don't like to eat this.""Why?" Keith asked."It's too cruel. I know how these foie gras are made," Summer explained. She just didn't want to eat it at all. It was too cruel. She would feel guilty eating it.Keith scoffed at Summer's innocence, saying, "Even if you know how foie gras is made, so what? "Only the strongest survive, and the weaker ones would naturally be eliminated. It's because they're useless, so they were dominated by human beings. Isn't it the same logic as when you eat pork?"What Keith said was right. In nature, the strongest survived, while the useless creatures w
If there really was to be a change, it wouldn't be others changing him, but about him changing others.Now, he didn't care if they were in public. Keith stood up and leaned in toward Summer. With only a two-inch gap between them, he came closer and whispered in her ear, "You want to make a change in me, right? Sure, but you'll have to be my woman first, just like you did for James."The surroundings fell silent. A strange feeling pervaded the restaurant.Summer felt that Keith had come too close to her, so she attempted to move the chair back a little. But before she could do so, Keith reached out and pressed his hand on her shoulder, making her unable to move."What are you trying to do?" Summer asked nervously. She was afraid that Keith would do something to her."You should know what I'm doing," he said mysteriously. He approached Summer again as he spoke, narrowing the distance between them. Suddenly, Summer realized what he wanted to do. He wanted to kiss her!"Pervert!"
Keith certainly wouldn't let Summer, his little antelope, run away. He snapped his fingers. Two burly bodyguards, who were standing by the entrance of the restaurant, immediately came forward and blocked the main door. Their bodies were as sturdy as hills, and their fierce demeanor showed that they were not to be messed with.It seemed Keith wanted to hold Summer by force. Summer was a weak woman, surely couldn't defeat the two big men. Luckily, she had come prepared.She quietly took out her handphone and wanted to call Lexi outside.However, she suddenly heard a cold voice whispering in her ear, "Who are you calling?"Summer shivered upon hearing the voice. She quickly turned and discovered Keith standing beside her unknowingly. He moved like a ghost, walking soundlessly and appearing out of nowhere. Moreover, his hand was already gripping Summer's wrist."Who are you calling, Summer?" Keith asked again, raising her wrist slightly.Summer awkwardly explained, "I… I wasn't
Summer glanced downward to find a plate of spaghetti on the table. It was the Venus spaghetti that Keith introduced earlier, which had an additional cherry sauce in it. Summer picked up a fork, twirled some noodles, and tasted them. The noodles indeed had a rich cherry flavor that tasted like a fruit burst in her mouth. Summer couldn't resist giving a thumbs-up. She praised, "It's really delicious!""I'm glad you like it." Keith glanced over and said, "I have specially requested this dish for you. I know you enjoy the cherry flavor, so I requested the chef to specifically make it this way."Based on what he said, it seemed that the restaurant didn't typically serve Venus spaghetti, and he had specially requested it. It showed how thoughtful Keith was. The fact that out of all types of fruit flavors, he specifically picked cherry suggested that he had likely done some research on Summer before. Truthfully, Keith had put a lot of effort into "pursuing" her. Summer could see his
Keith had many girlfriends. After all, it was all to satisfy his desires.Keith didn't deny the claim but rather candidly said, "It's just a mutual consensual agreement between consenting parties. I like women, and women like my money. So, we reached a deal. There's nothing wrong with that.""Yes, yes, you're right. It's a mutual agreement, so no one gets hurt. But is this love?" Summer set down her utensils and wiped her mouth with a napkin. She couldn't bother to eat now but continued to lecture him instead, "Keith, that isn't love. So, the root cause of your problem is finding someone you truly love and being in a real relationship with them."Keith kept quiet. His handsome face was full of contemptuous smiles. He probably felt what Summer said was very despicable.Summer didn't give up but said persistently, "Trust me. Don't you want to have the same happiness as James? If it's true love, it can dispel the negative emotions in your mind. Love has that kind of power.""That's
"First of all, it's impossible for you and me to be in love." Summer stressed her words. "I'm already married to James. Secondly, you don't truly like me!""Do you have proof that I don't truly like you?"Summer was stunned for a moment. She didn't think liking someone would require evidence. She had no way to prove Keith's feelings toward her. Besides, she believed liking someone didn't need any evidence. "Liking someone is something you feel. I just don't feel that you truly like me," Summer explained."Is that so? Then, what do you think about this?" Keith snapped his fingers again. The restaurant's music dimmed. The glazed lights on the ceiling emitted a faint pearly white glow. The performance band started playing a romantic melody.The scene was as beautiful as a dream. Summer couldn't believe what she was seeing was real. Most importantly, the beautiful scene wasn't the end but merely the beginning.Subsequently, fluffy white snow began falling from the ceiling. The lig
