Ivy looked at his face and could vaguely guess what was running through his mind. "Fine... I'll take the card. Don't blame me when I start spending." She said and dropped the card into her bag. "Go ahead and spend. I won't say a word. " He said and pecked the side of her lips before moving away from her. "Have you eaten?" He asked her. "Yes. I have. Why? Did you come here to take me out to eat?" She asked teasingly. "My little kitten... Are you sure you want to tease me?" He asked with a smirk. Ivy cleared her throat and retracted her gaze. "Fine. Keep being so tempting and I might just eat you up one day." She muttered under her breath. "You don't have to wait for that day. I am here right now." Christopher whispered into her ear. Ivy jumped in shock. Had she spoken her thoughts out loud? She didn't even notice him moving close to her. She could feel heat creeping onto her cheeks and turned to look out the car window. "Where are we going?" She asked. "I am taking you out." H

Ivy looked up and saw the people who were walking towards them. The woman seems to be in her late thirties but, Ivy knew how old she is. She is already in her fifties but took great care of herself. The man beside her looked too good as well. She has seen them both in various newspapers and magazines but seeing them in real life felt different. She felt pressured and started to get nervous again but the man beside her held onto her palm and the warmth from his hand relaxed her a little. She saw Shayla rush to the woman with a bright smile on her face and call out. "Mom!! It's good that you have arrived. Come this way." She said and led her to the table. More chairs had been added to the table which originally had just four seats. The newcomers took their seats and the woman looked at Ivy with disgust before speaking. "Chris! What have I been hearing?""What did you hear?" Chris asked without looking at her. He was only looking at his father who had walked in with his mother. "You sa

Liam Standford. He had come to Rosehill for a business deal. After the encounter the night before, he had thought maybe he was wrong about the girl he slept with in his car. He felt there was something different about her because in all his thirty-two years, he had never succumbed to temptation that easily. He had always prided himself on his self-control and strong will. He sent his people to find out things about her but was disappointed when the check he dropped in her bag was cashed out the next day. After seeing that, he called his people back and told them to forget about it. He concluded she was just another gold digger who would do anything to climb into his bed. He left the next morning and had returned back to Rosewood City. He had finalised the deal he came for and felt there was no reason to stay back in a small town like Rosehill. The incident of that night was like a dream to him. Maybe somehow, he had wished that she was different from all other women who had appear

We have things to discuss. Very important things!" He said with the raise of his eyebrows and a small smile on his lips.Mercury stayed back and every other person left the room. When it was left with just them, the tension became obvious. Mercury couldn't help stealing glances at him. She had to admit that he looked very handsome just sitting there. "Mr. Standford, why have you asked me to stay back?" Mercury pulled herself together and asked after seeing that Liam wasn't ready to say anything."So... Mercury is your name. I can see you have done well for yourself." He said and Mercury could hear the mockery in his tone. "I don't understand you,"Liam wasn't someone who would take his time to remember someone who was not important to him. But, he couldn't forget the girl who was sitting before him. She could be said to be the only woman who had made him lose control and it wasn't something he was proud of.Three years ago, she looked to be in her late teens but seeing her now, she
