His medications didn’t work. How could a simple warm milk be able to cure his insomnia?

Killian stared at her, his eyes scanning the thing she wore.

It wouldn’t even be called a nightdress, and the most fitting term for it was lingerie.

“What’s the meaning of this?” He whispered, giving her a deadly look. “Did you go to the kitchen in this? Did the servants or the bodyguards see you?”

If any of them saw her in this skimpy dress that not only exposed her full cleavage, but also left no little thing to the imagination, then Killian’s reputation was ruined.

Was she out of her mind?

“Don’t worry, Honey… Nobody else apart from you saw me in this. The servants have all gone to their quarters, and the bodyguards are outside.” Sophia gave him a silly smile, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

Every gesture she made was so provocative and Killian forced himself to look away. “Go and change into something appropriate. Never walk around in this again.”

“Aren’t you gonna take the milk?”

    …Killian’s eyes didn’t stop following her back until her figure disappeared behind the glass doors. What was Kiara doing here? Wasn’t she supposed to be out of the city, in fact? And what was she doing with Greg Stanton at this time of the evening, and even in this kind of place?Why was she dressed like that?“Please don’t believe her, Honey. You know the kind of person my Stepsis is.” Sophia pulled his attention. “She’s only trying to sow discord between us.”“Of course, Killian will not believe her.” His mother chipped in, still looking furious. “That stupid girl accused me of encouraging Sophia to harm you. It doesn't make sense. Will I ever consider harming my own son?”Killian wiped his face. His attention was not even on what the women were saying. The questions inside his mind right now were all about her. He’d heard rumors that Aaron was overworking her, pushing her to her limits. He’d heard that she could give up anytime soon. Killian had also heard that the Anderson Gr

    Kiara could not argue it. Her muscles were still stiff and her bones were literally cracking inside. If Greg hadn’t brought it up, she wouldn’t have considered it. However, her body really needed a full massage. At The Spa.Kiara couldn’t remember the last time she received such treatment. The massage lasted for thirty minutes, she had even dozed off in the process. But she wasn’t just here for the massage. Turned out Greg had already booked this for her in advance. She went through a lot of skincare treatments, from her head down to her toes. While her toenails were being trimmed and polished, Kiara glanced at the time. It had been more than an hour. Greg should have gone somewhere to kill time. He definitely wasn’t waiting outside for her to finish. “Hmmm. It hasn’t been easy, Mom… I’ve tried many ways to get him to at least sleep on the same bed with me. He always makes excuses about work.”“Have you used that substance I gave you?”“W-Well, I wanted to, but…”“But what? You

    What did he mean by going back to the construction site she had recently returned from and demolishing the resort to build a new one because he suddenly had a better idea?Did it make sense a bit?Staring at the text message on her phone, Kiara grappled with anger and frustration. Honestly, she was beginning to think that Aaron was crazy. That resort had cost him millions to build. And now he wanted it to be demolished, and she had to go back and start the work all over again?She shouldn’t have agreed to the term in the contract that allowed Aaron to give her instructions however he wanted. She shouldn’t have given him the liberty to boss her around. Kiara had overlooked that term, thinking Aaron was so cool to consider placing pressure on her. Nah! She was wrong. That man was a sadistic maniac!“Urgh!”She just came back for goodness’ sake. Kiara hadn’t even felt the warmth of her bed. “You don’t have to continue with that shit, Kiara!” Maya was standing behind her, massaging he

    Her heart raced hard against her chest.Staring into his eyes and the deep sincerity in them, Kiara’s feet curled under her heels, a feeling of anxiousness, fear, and uncertainty building up inside her. Greg suddenly hugged her, and her heartbeat was tossed into chaos.“Come on, Kiara…” He murmured behind her ear, his voice soft, raw with emotions. “What are you so afraid of? That I’ll break your heart? That I’ll turn out the same as the dumb man who couldn’t cherish you?”Kiara remained still, tension building up inside her muscles. Stiff in his embrace, she could only hear her own heartbeat, his words a faint plea. “What do I need to do to win your heart?” Greg pulled away, his eyes almost pleading. “Give me a hint at least. I swear I’ll do anything just to prove how sincere I am. I love you, Kiara. I’m not here to play.”Kiara gripped the papers in her hand to stop her fingers from shaking. She’d learned to master calmness in every kind of situation, but not this one.No matter ho

    …Kiara stared at the proposal in her hand. As much as she wanted to toss it in the trash, she found herself staring at it and going through the terms again and again. She even ended up taking it home. This was a huge opportunity. The perfect chance for the Storm Empire to rise higher. This time, she wouldn’t need to take a loan from the bank like she did with the solar panel project. This time around, the first party would cover all the financial expenses. She just needed to participate in the project by working alongside the construction crew, supervising their work. This was the perfect chance for her to venture into the real estate field, one of the most thriving fields in the business world. Her success was guaranteed and the terms were all in her favor. However,This proposal was coming straight from the man she wanted to have nothing to do with. Not because she was afraid of Aaron or feared that he had feelings for her, but because of his ties with the Reids’ family. Kiar
