Semua Bab Second Chance at Life and Love: Bab 11 - Bab 20

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

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

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

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

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
