Kelsey stood from her chair and walked over to meet him halfway, "I'm sorry. I didn't know."Dimitri looked behind her toward the desk, then back at her and smiled."It's okay." He unknowingly reached out and pulled a strand of hair away from her face, tucking it behind her ear, "I know how busy a business owner can be."Kelsey nodded, "I had a lot to do today."She then looked at Maureen, who had already packed up her documents, "Please get us tea.""Alright, Ma'am." Maureen turned to leave the office."Did something happen?" Kelsey asked Dimitri as she walked back toward her chair.Dimitri moved his gaze away from Maureen and back to Kelsey. He walked to the chair and sat down."Hmm." He hummed in response. "I heard you were involved in an accident."Kelsey was taken aback, "Accident?""Your friend's boyfriend, actually. But the situation got you involved." Dimitri spoke softly before asking, "How is he doing?""He has regained consciousness," Kelsey replied quietly.Dimitri let out

“At our graduation party,” Ramon started. ” She confessed her feelings to me again in front of everyone, even though I had rejected her many times." Kelsey listened quietly."She wanted to put pressure on me. She dared me to let her run in front of a moving car and kill herself if I didn't accept her."Kelsey let out a sharp breath, clearly shocked by what she was hearing."I told her to go ahead and stop wasting my time," Ramon continued. "I told her I wasn't interested in her and that I would never date her."As he spoke, his mind drifted back to the memories he had locked away for years.That day had been their high school graduation.An after-party had been held for the students and their friends.Ramon had never really wanted to attend the party. Such gatherings had never been his thing. But he knew Dimitri would be there.At that time, Dimitri and Ramon had already become distant.And Gwen was the reason.After Gwen's first confession in front of Dimitri and some other student

The ballroom was crowded, but Venus barely noticed anyone around her.Her eyes had been searching through the room since she arrived.She knew why she was there.She had told Ramon that she would represent him and the company well on his behalf, but she knew the truth.She had come because she knew James would be there.Several powerful businessmen were in attendance, but Venus wasn't interested in any of them. Her attention remained on the people around her, hoping to catch a glimpse of the one person she had been waiting for.She had waited for James to come back to her.She didn't believe he truly meant what he said when he ended their relationship. She had convinced herself that he was simply angry and needed time to cool down.But fear had begun to creep into her mind because he never called. He never came to see her. He had completely cut her off.As she searched the room again, she suddenly saw him.James was standing with some businessmen. He looked serious, dressed in a dark

At Ivory Mansion...Kelsey had been awake for almost twenty minutes, but she didn't know how to open her eyes.She could feel Ramon's arms wrapped around her, his warm breath fanning lightly across her face. She was well aware that they were both naked beneath the sheet.Her mind slowly went over everything that had happened the previous night.Her face immediately turned red.It had been intense and overwhelming. Kelsey couldn't find the right words to describe the sensations Ramon had made her feel.There had been a brief moment of pain and discomfort when they finally became intimate. Last night could be considered their real first time together. The first time, Ramon had been under the influence of drugs, and she hadn't been ready for it.But this time, they had both been fully aware of what they were doing.Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted when she felt Ramon press a soft kiss against her lips."You can open your eyes. I know you're not sleeping," he whispered near her ear

Gwen's voice was filled with disbelief, "How am I supposed to do such a thing?"She stared at Dimitri as though he had just suggested something completely unreasonable.Her father stood a few steps away, his expression already tense. He had been listening to the conversation in silence, but his daughter's reaction was beginning to test his patience.Dimitri remained calm, "Gwen, listen to me first.""No!" she snapped. "I don't want to listen to this."Dimitri sighed, "Calm down, Gwen.""Calm down?" She let out a short, bitter laugh. "How do you expect me to calm down when you're standing here telling me that I should go and do community service for four months? Not only that, I have to apologize to them?"She sneered before adding, "They want me to apologize to that bitch who called me silly. I'll never do that."The thought of apologizing to Ruby alone was enough to make her furious. In her mind, Ruby had insulted her first. Why should she be the one to apologize?Dimitri stared at h
