Chapter 81

"Fuck off!" Summer was enraged that Kelly would jinx her marriage when she had only just gotten married.Regardless, she wondered if James really was that desirable. There was no denying that the man was outstanding, but Summer didn't think he was charming to that extent.Anyway, Summer needed to talk some sense into Kelly. She said with a serious look, "Listen, you should start dating. You are not young anymore.""Hey, it's not like I don't want to. My suitors are all scumbags. While the excellent ones are mostly playboys, the dedicated ones don't have much to offer. Who do you want me to choose?" Kelly whined about her troubles.Back then, she had truly wanted to concentrate on nothing but her studies. But after graduating, she realized that it was too late for her to find a proper partner. All the fine men were taken, leaving behind mostly bachelors and playboys with poor conditions."Summie, it would be great if I could meet a man like James. I heard that he is devoted and doe

Coincidentally, Summer knew of a bar nearby. Back when she worked at Charter Corporation, she often drank there with her clients.Walking through the bustling streets, the two arrived at the bar. As soon as they entered, they were greeted by passionate, loud DJ music. People were grooving on the dance floor, and the smell of alcohol permeated the lively atmosphere. Summer found an empty table and sat down. After ordering two Bloody Mary cocktails, they clinked their glasses and started drinking. Halfway through the glass, the taste of the alcohol spread in her mouth while the fragrant taste flowed down her throat and into her stomach."How is it, Kelly? Isn't this place nice?""It is," Kelly replied. Then, she ordered a few more cocktails with strong alcohol, along with a bunch of snacks."Come on, Summie, we won't go home tonight until we get drunk. We must have a good time."As they hadn’t seen each other in a long time, they had to seize the opportunity to enjoy themselves. O

With a shove, the man pushed Summer onto the sofa. He then raised his hands, resembling a starving wolf ready to pounce on her."Help!" At a loss, Summer could only scream for help. Suddenly, she deeply regretted her decision to have James remove her bodyguards. If she had known something like this would happen, she would have listened to James' advice.But regret was useless now. The bar was filled with deafening music, which drowned out Summer's cry for help. Faced with three powerful men, she had no way to fight back.Amid her despair, James' face appeared in Summer's mind. If he were there, he would effortlessly get rid of these men. However, it was only a fleeting thought. He was probably still occupied with work at Quigley Group. The man got closer and closer. His eyes flickered with greed and coupled with his perverse smile, he looked incredibly ferocious. Summer was not willing to give up, so she pushed the man's body away from her. "Go away, go away!" Summer yelled de

As James had handled the situation, Summer felt relieved and soon fainted.The next morning, her vision cleared as she opened her eyes. She found herself back in the apartment, where everything around her was as before. The sunlight cast gentle warmth on her skin.Sitting up in the bed, Summer rubbed her temples. She recalled what had transpired the night before. She remembered being attacked by three men at the bar, and James showing up in time to save her. He had probably brought her back to the apartment.While she was deep in thought, a voice came from outside the door. "Summie, are you awake?"It was James. He knocked on the door before pushing it open. Dressed in a sharp suit, he carried a bowl of soup and sat next to Summer's bed.Normally, at this hour, James would have already returned to work at his company. Now that he was still in the apartment, it meant he had taken leave to look after her.This was rare, as James was a well-known workaholic who would dedicate 16 hou

No wonder James had known Summer's precise whereabouts. It turned out to be the bracelet's fault."Hmph, didn't I tell you not to follow me? You're violating my freedom!" Summer accused angrily. While safety was important, freedom was even more precious. Now that she was constantly under James' surveillance, she felt like a caged bird. This was contrary to the agreement they had made.James argued, "Without the bracelet, what do you think would've happened?"Without the blue crystal bracelet, both Summer and Kelly would have been assaulted by the three vicious men at the bar. The consequences would've been unimaginable.Summer knew that she was in the wrong for asking him to reduce her security. However, it wasn't an excuse to restrict her freedom.Summer replied, "So I should thank you? That's right. You are the president of Quigley Group, and you are superior. You are always right. A useless girl like me should be protected and followed by bodyguards all the time!”James coul

"I know, I know. He's your husband, and as your best friend, I will not steal him from you.""That's not what I mean ..." Summer meant to say that James was very unfriendly. Nothing good would come to any woman who got close to him.So, Summer was not worried that Kelly would take James away from her. Instead, she was worried about her best friend potentially getting hurt.Kelly was different from Simone, after all.In the past, when Summer and Hank were still together, Simone often intervened in their relationship as a third party. The latter was a typical scheming, back-stabbing snake who would do anything to achieve her own goals.Unlike Simone, Kelly would never try to steal someone else's man. She was a carefree girl with a slightly crass personality.Summer and Kelly had known each other for a long time and understood each other well. Summer trusted her very much, so she was certain that Kelly would never do anything to destroy her happiness.That morning, Summer took Kell

Kelly was visibly delighted when she saw the magnificent building. "As expected of a conglomerate! Come on, Summie. Let's go in for a tour."Summer was helplessly dragged along. She felt a little uneasy. The two of them were behaving like visitors from out of town, and she was afraid that he would be angry if he found out.Charlie reassured Summer that it was entirely appropriate for her to visit the company since she was the president's wife. But Summer was worried that their presence would disturb the employees' work.It was hard to imagine a group of people barging into your workplace, pointing their fingers, and poking their heads around. Anyone would have felt uncomfortable.Unexpectedly, when Summer stepped into the building, the employees warmly welcomed her. When everyone heard that she was visiting, they lined up to greet her.Both men and women dressed in formal attire dropped their tasks at hand to greet Summer. It was the same in every department they passed through.

"Why did you come to the company without telling me?""My friend wanted to visit, so I brought her here," Summer lowered her head and explained."You should have told me. Showing up so suddenly will affect the company's order."Summer understood what he meant. She had a special status, and a sudden visit would naturally attract the attention and curiosity of the employees, causing a stir like she had earlier.Realizing that she was at fault, Summer did not refute. She really had caused a lot of trouble. Besides, she knew this would happen. Everyone was curious about the president's young wife, so creating a sensation was unavoidable.The last time she came to deliver lunch to James, the company's employees weren't aware of her identity. They couldn't even believe that James was married.But now, having learned who Summer was, everyone paid close attention to everything she did. "I'm sorry, James." Summer had nothing to say except apologize.James didn't want to make things dif

The saleswoman noticed the customers and greeted them warmly, "You have great taste! This is the Angel Black handbag, created by a renowned designer. It suits you perfectly." "I think so too." Kelly nodded shamelessly. She had never bought a designer bag before despite being from an affluent family. While she usually wasn't materialistic, she wanted to let loose and be a little extravagant now that she was out with Summer.But when Kelly looked at the price tag, she was stunned to see it cost 30 thousand dollars, even a few months of her salary barely totaled up to 30 grand. Buying the bag meant she had to live frugally for several months. Upon the shocking realization, she couldn't afford it at all. "Summie, come here." Kelly waved Summer over."What's wrong?" Summer was confused as she approached."Look at the price."Summer wondered what could be wrong with the price, and she immediately panicked when she saw the price tag.Although she usually purchased branded items, th

300 grand. That was two years of salary for a white-collar worker who worked tirelessly without a moment of rest. Although Summer could afford it, she didn't dare to.Kelly also noticed the price, feeling petrified. To give herself a way out, she smiled and said to the saleswoman, "It looks ordinary.""Yeah," Summer added cooperatively. Being best friends, they could read each other's thoughts with just a glance. Seeing how expensive the handbag was, they both felt the urge to leave and made an excuse to escape.Quick-witted as ever, Kelly suddenly acted as if something had come to mind. She continued, "Oh, I just remembered. There's a package that I have to pick up at the post office. Come on, Summie. Let's go collect it.""Okay."Then, two of them promptly left the store with faces flushed with mortification. They had originally intended to have a good time shopping but were too financially constrained.Unexpectedly, as they walked out of the store, Kelly stumbled on the slippe
