Chapter 11

Kelsey was shocked. With Tyler’s ride about to drive away, she reached out in a panic to hold onto the car handle. Meanwhile, the chauffeur hit the accelerator. Kelsey chased after the moving vehicle. “Tyler!”She cried out his name in hopes he would come around. Alas, Tyler remained somberly unyielding. The chauffeur picked up speed to ascend the slope in the parking lot. It became a growing struggle for Kelsey to pursue the car on foot. She slipped and took a tumble. “Ah!” She let out a scream and crashed onto the ground. Her elbows and knees scraped against the hard ground of the parking lot. She was bleeding. Kelsey grimaced in pain. Looking at the raw flesh of her scraped elbows and knees, she felt a lump in her throat. Her eyes welled up, and tears threatened to fall. “Screech!” The tires squealed against the floor from the sudden slam of the brakes. The luxurious sedan that was on its way out of the parking lot made an abrupt stop. “Shawn, go

Chapter 12

Kelsey froze. In her last life, she had indeed forced Tyler’s hand into making a choice between her life and breaking off the engagement. Kelsey knew better than to walk down the same path again. “I have made things clear with you at the hotel. I will marry you if you propose.” Kelsey lifted her chin, her eyes determined. “I won’t call it quits with you.” Tyler’s eyes flickered menacingly. “Are you trying to lie to me again?” His hold on her tightened unknowingly. Kelsey refuted in pain, “I’m not lying!” Tyler narrowed his eyes dangerously at her. “Get out!” He barked while releasing his grip. Kelsey shook her head. “No!” It took a lot just to get into his car. She could not possibly leave until the misunderstanding was resolved. Tyler grimaced. “I’ll say that again. Get out!” Kelsey’s gaze met his as she insisted, “No. I’m going where you’re going.” While talking, she clung to his waist. Tyler swallowed hard once more. It was hard to read the expressio

Chapter 13

Tyler opened the door and got out of the car. Kelsey looked out the car window and realized the car had brought them right outside Tyler’s detached villa by the hillside in Hampville. As Tyler strode into the villa, Kelsey opened the car door and went after him. “Wait for me, Tyler.” Tyler paused but did not look back at her. Once Kelsey caught up to him, Tyler punched the code to open the door to the villa. With the door opening, Tyler went ahead and walked in while Kelsey followed closely in the back. When they stepped into the house, the light and central air conditioning automatically turned on, and the coffee machine started brewing coffee. The villa implemented a high-tech smart system. From lighting to climate control, every aspect of the villa was controlled by a computer.Hence, no domestic help was present. Tyler had always lived on his own. Kelsey stood in the living room and checked her surroundings curiously. The high-tech features were not the only standout. Kel

Chapter 14

“Why don’t you have any clothes on?” Blushing in the face, Kelsey covered her eyes. In case Tyler made a move on her, she stared at him warily through the gaps between her fingers. Tyler stood there in a daze. “I don’t have any clothes on? Huh?” While talking, he approached her. Kelsey shouted in a panic, “Don’t come any closer!” She could not bring herself to talk about the absence of his boxers. Tyler followed her gaze to his lower abdomen. The realization hit him. Not only did he not fasten his bathrobe, but he removed the knot and let his bathrobe hang loose.“Ah!” Kelsey screamed once more, his cheeks rosy. “This is harassment. You…” She was about to rip into him when she realized that his modesty was covered. The shadow in his bathrobe turned out to be his black briefs. Kelsey was speechless and embarrassed. “How was that harassment?” Tyler drew close, his eyes dark and mesmerizing. Kelsey turned her face away shyly. She could not admit that her e

Chapter 15

Kelsey had no idea how hot she looked. Tyler tensed up, his hand shaking while holding the hair dryer. Pursing his lips, Tyler tried to keep it in his pants. Tyler focused his attention on blowing her hair dry, making sure to be gentle and thorough. He turned off the hair dryer when her hair was nearly dry. Without the whirring noise of the hair dryer, their breathing became apparent in the tiny walk-in closet. The heavy, ragged gasps left the room hanging with unspoken tension.Tyler’s arm somehow hooked onto her waist. Kelsey was taken aback. She cocked her head back and met his fiery gaze. Kelsey shivered. Getting on her tiptoes, she kissed Tyler on the lips. Tyler was shocked. His eyes widened. He could not believe that Kelsey would kiss him. Her tongue glided across his lips. Unable to hold himself back anymore, he deepened the kiss. Despite his yearning, he soon let go of her. “You forgot to breathe. Yet, you kissed me.” Tyler looked at her with

Chapter 16

Tyler averted his gaze, restraining himself from looking at Kelsey. He kept his head down and put the cap on the ointment before placing it back in the medical kit. “Get an early rest.” Tyler got up, ready to leave. What was that supposed to mean? Kelsey stared at his receding back in confusion. She could sense his yearning, and unlike before, she was more than happy to give him what he wanted. Yet, Tyler still walked out on her. “Where are you going?” Kelsey asked in disbelief. “The study,” Tyler replied in a raspy voice while striding to the door. Surprise fleeted across Kelsey’s eyes. “Aren’t… sleeping with me?” She asked meekly. A wave of despair weighed heavily on her. Tyler let her stick around, put her in his shirt, and rested her head on his bed. Even at that point, he would not touch her. Kelsey did not see the point of staying at his place. She simply did not get it. Tyler would not give her an answer either. He had left the master bedroom

Chapter 17

Since it was nearly noon, Kelsey assumed Tyler must have left home and gone to work by now. Kelsey heard a woman talking downstairs when approaching the staircase. “I went to your office, Tyler, and your secretary said that you aren’t at work today. I thought I should check up on you in case you are sick.” Kelsey found the voice rather familiar. She listened carefully, and she finally determined the voice belonged to Zara. Zara’s presence at Tyler’s villa was the last thing Kelsey expected. Tyler simply gave Zara a chilling look without replying to her. His family owned the business, so he did not need to answer to anyone about his whereabouts, much less explain himself to Zara. A while later, he glanced at her in annoyance. “How do you know where I live?” Zara chuckled, not at all feeling embarrassed. She said smugly, “I live in the area too. Didn’t you know?” Zara bought a villa in the same community to be neighbors with Tyler upon learning of his residence the

Chapter 18

Kelsey got goosebumps from listening to Zara’s talk. The only thing she was unsure of was Tyler’s stance. Tyler had not said much, and Kelsey could not read his expression and body language from upstairs. There was no telling whether Tyler consented to Zara’s advances or wanted to kick her out of the house. Knowing Tyler, Kelsey thought he would not be pleased with a woman finding out his address and making an abrupt visit. However, Kelsey could not read his repulsion and refusal in his little words. It was the very reason why Zara was pushing her luck. The situation in the downstairs living room was a mystery to Kelsey. She could only speculate if they were looking into each other’s eyes or hugging. For all they knew, they could be sharing a kiss. Kelsey was filled with unrest and agitation. Tyler had given the necklace, the only belonging of his parents, to Zara after all. Zara clearly meant a lot to him. Perhaps Tyler would use Zara’s visit to the house to

Chapter 19

For the first time, Kelsey openly admitted to the public that Tyler was her fiancé. Zara turned ashen, her eyes narrowing on Kelsey. “Spent the night?” Zara murmured in shock. Assuming Kelsey’s statement was truthful, she would have crashed at Tyler's place last night. That would leave two adults alone in the house. One thing would surely lead to another. Zara cocked her head back and desperately looked at Tyler for confirmation. She hoped to hear Tyler deny last night’s events, even though the chances were slim. Tyler’s gaze fell on Zara as he contemplated a response. Suddenly, Kelsey clutched his tie and yanked him toward her. “Why are you looking at her? Is she hotter than me?” Tyler replied without thinking, “You’re hotter.” Bingo. Kelsey felt good. The displeasure of seeing Zara in Tyler’s pad lifted. Kelsey glanced at Zara’s grimace and asked, “Should I give you some space since Ms. Quest is here?” She motioned to push Tyler away. Tyler tightened

Chapter 20

Zara sure had the nerve to stick around. Kelsey’s words made Zara’s blood boil. “You—” Her lips quivered with her resentment for Kelsey. Kelsey interrupted Zara from talking, “What? Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.” She showed Zara the door. Zara swallowed her anger. “Who said I was leaving?” Kelsey could think twice about getting rid of her. With a raised brow, Kelsey asked, “Don’t tell me you want to stay to watch me and my husband get intimate. Are you still trying to hook up with my husband?” Zara was furious because Kelsey’s statement hit a raw nerve. “Tyler is not your husband. Have you no shame?” Kelsey glanced at her mockingly. “We are engaged, and the man is mine. You’re the one without any shame for throwing yourself at him.” Zara’s face drained of color. “What did you say?” “Am I wrong?” Kelsey refuted nonchalantly, “You knew he had a fiancée, but you invited yourself to his place. Who knows what you are up to?” Zara was speechless.
