"Well… Keith is a complicated person. He's kind of a psychopath," Summer said. She had used "psychopath" because it seemed the most fitting way to describe him.Kelly looked puzzled, her face full of disbelief. "Are you serious, Summie? You're not lying to me, right?"Summer realized Kelly might have misunderstood. She likely thought "psychopath" meant Keith had a mental illness. In reality, Keith didn't have any psychological disorders—his personality was just a bit twisted.For a moment, Summer was unsure whether to tell Kelly everything about Keith. After all, a lot had happened with him. He'd accidentally caused his brother's death, was ostracized by his family, had a dark personality, and would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.Since Kelly was going for a matchmaking session with Keith, Summer felt she deserved to know what kind of person she was dealing with. Even though it was unlikely they would end up together after just one date, Summer thought it was necessary fo

Kelly still looked cheerful and excited. "I don't think Keith is as awful as you claim he is," she said softly. "Isn't he in quite a pitiful state? It's not like he wanted to get his brother killed. He doesn't want to be shunned by his family either.""There's a reason why people ostracize him, you know?" In Summer's opinion, Keith brought everything upon himself. He was arrogant and cold—who wouldn't want to avoid him? Since he was James' good friend, she initially wanted to help him out. To her dismay, he repeatedly tried to sabotage her relationship with James. Now, she couldn't care less about him.Kelly disagreed and insisted on defending him. "His personality is shaped by society. Deep down, I believe that he yearns for human interaction and affection, too. No one wants to be alone in this world. He's probably this way because he has no other choice."Her voice was extremely soft and gentle, which was unlike her. She usually spoke in a carefree and direct manner. If

However, she was completely unfazed by his provocation. She wore a gentle smile on her face the entire time, which caught Keith by surprise. He only showed up to this date in order to humiliate Kelly. By doing so, he could exact revenge on Summer.Keith Ritter had always been a petty man. If anyone were to offend him, he'd make sure to get his revenge. Although Summer helped him secure his place as the family heir, she also had the audacity to make a bold request. On top of that, she even made him promise not to meddle in her relationship. This made him extremely angry. Therefore, he wasn't here for a date—he was here to take out his anger on Kelly instead.He was just getting started. He put on an austere expression and said arrogantly, "You should know that I'm way out of your league. A nobody like you could never become my wife. "However, you lucked out. Since you managed to meet with me, I might as well give you a chance to redeem yourself. Tell me about your strengths. Y

Kelly started panicking at the sight of this. She reached for his arm to stop him from leaving. However, she lost her footing when she got up and fell over. In the process, her arm knocked over the cup of coffee on the table. The drink splashed onto her white dress and left a brown stain.At the sound of the commotion, Keith turned around and found that she had fallen onto the ground. Instead of going over to help her up, he spat emotionlessly, "You're doing an awful lot of work just to stop me from leaving. It's really foolish."She probably tripped herself in an attempt to make him stay. Many women had done the same thing at the parties he attended. Still, she looked like she was in a tremendous amount of pain. Her face was contorted, and she was gripping her ankle. Her shoe heel had broken off, too. If this was all an act, she would be a brilliant actress. He didn't think she would break her ankle just to stop him from leaving. So, he chose to believe that she'd actually

Summer started making wild guesses. These events could take place in tv shows as well as in real life. For all she knew, that could have been what happened between Kelly and Keith, too.Kelly denied it. "How is that possible? That's not what happened.""What happened then?""Do you remember what my university major was? I majored in finance. During my internship in my final year, I conducted an interview at a finance company. That was the first time I met him—Keith was the person I interviewed."All of a sudden, Kelly started recalling events from the past. All those memories gradually began coming back to her.Everything changed with time. As the days slipped by, seeds sprouted, and trees grew taller. As Kelly took a trip down memory lane, she found herself back in the younger days of her final year in university. During her internship period, in order to complete the assignment given by her university, Kelly headed to a finance corporation. As an editorial assistant for a fi
