This night, a thunderstorm was raging outside the Tyson Hotel.
Katherine was inside the presidential suite and had a very long and beautiful dream. It was as if she had gone to an amusement park when she visited as a kid. After riding the bumper cars, she went to ride on the roller coaster. It was blissful, sweet, and like she was being spoilt like a princess. She realized that the story of Cinderella being loved by Prince Charming was rewritten from real life.
The sun started to rise as the storm dissipated.
Katherine wore Killian’s shirt and walked to the huge panel windows and drew open the curtains. The warm and comforting sunlight enveloped her entire body. She was bent backward and stretched herself like a kitten and smiled. She looked at the rising sun and had a feeling of being reborn.
All her hardships had ended when she met Killian last night.
What was so great about Jack? Killian was now her true love.
Furthermore, she was sure that with Killian’s family background, her parents would not treat her with disrespect and disdain like before.
“You’re up so early?” Killian’s voice was full of tenderness.
Katherine yawned, “I’m still a little tired.” She then turned and returned to the bed.
DT Real Estate Agency.
Jack rushed to the company early that morning.
Previously he had decided to launch the sales of the three properties at once and now he needed to put in all his efforts to see it through. But thanks to the acceptance of sixty percent of Drago Real Estate Agency, it had given DT a huge boost.
Taking advantage of this wave of enthusiasm, perhaps Corbin and his team’s worry of the negative impact of simultaneously launching three properties may be allayed. In this case, his stress had also reduced considerably.
As it approached lunchtime, Jack placed his work down and leaned back into his chair to rest. He looked outside the window towards the sky. After several seconds, he took his phone and called Amber. The phone rang until it cut off automatically. The other party did not answer the call.
He frowned and opened the Wechat app and managed to contact Amber.
Jack, How are you over there?
Amber replied very quickly
Amber, Very well.
The simple answer made Jack feel the coldness of the distance.
It was like two pieces of red-hot metal had been drenched with freezing water. Jack rubbed his swollen nose. Hadn’t Amber gotten over what happened? He didn’t know how to help Amber overcome the issue and the only thing he could do was to wait. There were ebbs and flows in life.
The environment in which he and Amber grew up was vastly different. So it was natural that they would deal with things differently. He was someone who went through darkness and hardships and the way he dealt with that issue was certainly different from how Amber would as she had grown up in a privileged environment.
He hesitated for a moment and then sent a message.
Jack, Do you need me to go over?
Now he waited for ten minutes and Amber still had not replied.
Jack laughed helplessly and placed his phone down and continued with his work.
At the same moment, in the Presidential Suite of Tyson Hotel.
Katherine showered and put on a long black dress which Killian had one of the hotel staff purchase from Chanel. Standing in front of the mirror, she admired her figure accentuated by the figure-hugging Chanel dress.
Katherine’s eyes lit up and before she could react, they were at the entrance of the Villas. As Killian drove the Lamborghini to the main entrance.
“Salute!” The security guards at the entrance stood to attention and saluted, “Welcome home!”
Boom!
It was as if Katherine had been struck by lightning. She cupped her hand over her crimson lips and almost screamed. Oh lord! Did Killian live there?
In front of her, the large doors of the entrance slowly opened. The Lamborghini slowed down significantly and drove slowly into the complex. Katherine continued to cover her mouth and felt that she was dreaming.
Both sides of the road were lined with luxurious and grand villas. Each of them shocked her like a hammer banging onto her head. The Lamborghini drove and stopped at a villa at the Hillside crest.
Katherine finally couldn’t endure any further and asked excitedly, “Killian, do you live here?”
“What do you think?” Killian twitched his eyebrows and winked, “Get down, my little princess.”
His words made Katherine feel as if she was in the clouds.
Princess? She blushed and lowered her head coyly while feeling warm inside her. She waited till Killian opened her door.
“Do you like it?” Killian asked. Katherine nodded happily. At that moment, she was excited and elated. Her heart was pounding but her mind was blank.
Was this a dream? If this was a dream, she hoped that she would never wake up from it!
“Then from today onwards, this will be my little princess’ home.” Killian smiled at Katherine and patted her back. Her eyes were looking coldly at a villa not far away.
