Chapter 251
Paul obediently slowed the car down. As a result, the journey became smoother.
He couldn’t help but think huffily, “I’ll gamely offer my head up on a silver platter if Mr. Martin insists he hasn’t fallen for Skylar!”
How could Joe not like her when he was being so attentive to her needs?
The two returned to their rooms for a bath once they made it to Galaxy Villa.
Joe promptly flopped himself on his bed after his shower, patiently waiting for Skylar to give him a massage.
During the wait, he decided to flip through a book.
The room was quiet and peaceful.
Frankly, Joe was somewhat surprised when the door creaked open.
Usually, Skylar would knock before entering his room to give him a massage. She had never been so bold as to push the door open just like that.
Joe placed his book aside and turned his attention to Skylar. He hadn’t even gotten a good look at her when Skylar, who hadn’t dried her hair, pounced on him. She had placed her entire weight behind it.
Laying on top of him, Skylar gently held his face in her hands and kissed him silly.
Joe jerked back to reality in the face of her passionate kisses. His eyes glinted dangerously as he asked, “Do you know what you’re doing?”
He was a man–a normal man with needs. He had no desire to squash his urges when the woman he had decided to spend his entire life with had approached him in
such a manner.
Skylar didn’t answer. However, her hands slyly slipped under his shirt. It was as if she
wanted to see the side of him he had never shown to anyone.
Joe understood that this was her silent agreement to take their relationship to the next level. Thus, he immediately took over the reins and pushed Skylar down.
She was only wrapped in a flimsy bathrobe. Once he stripped himself of his shirt, his slender fingers played with the hem of the robe.
Then, he gently tugged it open and was greeted with a wondrous sight.
Joe’s eyes turned dark with desire as his breath quickened.
Soon, the room had turned hotter due to their passion.
Skylar furrowed her brow, looking as if she was enduring something.
Joe instantly felt his rationality returning when he noticed the odd look on her face.
They were embracing one another. He could feel her warmth against his skin as he forced himself to remain calm.
Although Skylar was looking at him, it was also as though she wasn’t focusing on him.
“Skylar, answer me.”
Skylar abruptly raised her head and kissed his Adam’s apple.
Alas, she was obviously new to this, judging by how her teeth scraped against his skin. Her ministrations stung slightly.
“Skylar, what’s with you?”
They didn’t go anywhere else bésides Pearhall Residence and Doherty Residence that day. After that, they promptly returned to Galaxy Villa. So, he was certain she wasn’t drugged at all.
So, her condition right now…
Still, Skylar was behaving as if she couldn’t hear him.
“I’ll have my way with you if you don’t get yourself together. You hear me?” Joe said huskily.
Skylar was challenging his self–control.
“Joe, are you scared?” she shot back provocatively.
Chapter 252
Although her tone was seductive, there was no hiding the ‘glazed and lost look in her
eyes.
Joe suddenly had an epiphany. He immediately removed the red bracelet from his wrist and tried to clasp it on Skylar’s.
Unfortunately, Skylar squirmed against the sheets, doing her level best to get in his
way.
She was trying to seduce him.
Regardless, there was a clear disparity in their strength. Therefore, Joe merely gripped Skylar’s wrist firmly and slid the bracelet on her.
Skylar stopped moving the second the red bracelet landed on her wrist.
A few moments later, her dimmed eyes began to brighten. After that, her eyes. promptly focused on the shirtless Joe who was looming over her.
A bead of sweat rolled down his forehead and landed against her chest.
The chilled sensation against her skin gradually made her eyes widen in shock.
“You-”
“You nearly forced yourself on me,” Joe said, cutting her off. “Actually, you had quite a nice time fondling me. Is your thirst for my body quenched, or do you need more?
His lips curled into a teasing smirk as his eyes glinted dangerously. Then, he covered Skylar with a towel, covering the sinful temptation before him.
Still, the desire within him only burned hotter.
Skylar was beyond shocked as her brain dutifully replayed the scene earlier. Sure enough, her fair cheeks flushed crimson.
Under the warm lighting, her eyes seemed oddly enchanting as she hastily defended herself, “I was affected by that dress! My head wasn’t on straight earlier!”
The first owner of the dress was a well–known hostess back in the day. She had
specifically ordered that dress to gain more customers and consolidate her position.
Nonetheless, it was likely that the seamstress of this very dress was working under someone’s pay. She had sewn a seal on the dress, causing the hostess to die a tragic
death.
She had probably fallen for its sinister machinations when Viola had her place the red bracelet on Joe after Frank burned the dress–into crisps.
Skylar nearly burst into tears as she stared at the red bracelet on her wrist.
Her brain remembered every vivid detail.
She didn’t know she could be so bold!
Not only did she fondle Joe, but she also allowed him to see her stark naked. To make matters worse, her lips felt particularly tender.
As if summoned by her thoughts, her brain obligingly screeched to a halt upon the scene where they shared a kinni.
“See this?”
Joe pointed at his shoulder.
Bruises were blooming against his skin, Bruises that were dotted with marks.
She could see as clear as day that those were teeth marks.
How scandalous!
Skylar inhaled sharply at the undeniable evidence. In the end, she decided to play dumb. “I’ll get the first aid kit. When did you get hurt?”
She was going to book it with that flimsy excuse.
Joe grabbed her hand and placed it against his shoulder as his lips curled into a teasing smile. “Oh, well. An adorable yet fierce puppy bit me. Do you think I should get a rables shot?”
Did she think she could get away after causing such a mess? Was he that much of a fool?
Skylar’s fingers stiffened against the bumpy ridges dotting his skin.
Chapter 252
3/3
Who did he just call puppy? If anything, he was the animal in this room!
“Look here. I got bit here too.” Joe pressed closer as he pointed to his lips.
Although Skylar felt guilty, she wasn’t about to back off just like that. “Fine, I did it. I accept full responsibility for all of it.”
Then, she wasted no time tugging her hand away from his grip before clutching her
bathrobe against her chest and dashing away from him.
Joe narrowed his eyes at the wide open door. He fell silent for a few seconds before
leaving the bed and walking to the bathroom.
The mirror reflected the marks on his skin. Of course, it also displayed the tiny cut on his lips.
Act Fast: Free Bonus Time is Running O
Chapter 253
The mirror reflected a man with eyes flaring with desire. It was a sight that he had. never seen on his person.
There was a pack of cigarettes by the sink. He took one and lit it. Soon, a waft of smoke appeared in the bathroom.
His eyes unfocused as he flicked the ashes and looked at the bite marks on hist
shoulders.
Skylar immediately ran to the bathroom once she fled to her room. She inhaled sharply as her eyes landed on the woman with disheveled hair in the mirror.
“I’ve lost it!”
She was going to forget everything that happened earlier, even if it killed her!
Then, she whisked out the hairdryer and started blowing her damp hair, her mind lost in thoughts. Her hand shook as her mind drifted to the amorous scene earlier.
She took three deep breaths as she swore to herself, “I need to keep my guard up when I lend my aid to another in the future! I can’t fall for such tricks!”
She had to thank her lucky stars that Joe didn’t fall for his desires. Otherwise, she would wake up tomorrow with her chastity gone under such circumstances.
Still, his actions only cemented the fact that Joe didn’t like her. That was why he could remain so cool–headed at a time like that.
Once her hair was dry, she threw herself against her bed. Alas, sleep evaded her.
“Oh, I nearly forgot. I have several orders to look through.”
There weren’t many commissions that day.
Besides, several of them were rather easy to pick out. So, she went through them
within 30 minutes.
Just as she was about to put her phone away, she received a notification from her
bank
It seemed that someone had transferred 500 thousand dollars to her account
She couldn’t help but find it odd when she saw that the person was none other than Frank
Within a few seconds, she also received a text from him. “Skye, just think of the
money as a token of my gratitude. I’ve burnt the dress. Grace and Chad are sleeping well. This is all thanks to you.”
Skylar couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy as she took a look at her bank statement. She could buy a home of her own now!
Nonetheless, she politely replied to Frank’s text with a list of things to watch out for before browsing for a real estate opportunity in Jipsburg City.
She unwittingly fell soundly asleep during her search.
Maisy had always been a night owl. So, she usually went to bed around 2:00 am to 3:
00 am.
Truthfully, she was feeling far from great ever since she returned from Janine’s
home.
She had taken the initiative to visit them. Yet, Charles and Harvey were still so cold
and wary of her.
How frustrating!
When she skimmed through the threatening text Charles and Harvey had sent, she
nearly smashed her phone in a fit of fury.
They had warned her not to bully Skylar. They even claimed they had seen through her facade and knew just what she was playing at.
Then, they went a step further to say that who..
hers.
was Skylar’s would always remain
Just then, she got a text from some random hot guy she met once. “Do you want to hang out?”
Chatter 253
Maisy’s mind reeled back to what had happened and the video Christopher was using to blackmail her. She felt herself hesitating for a good few minutes.
She took a look at the time and noticed it was just past midnight. It was still quite
early. Plus, she was nearly filled to the brim with anger.
The hot guy shot her another text, “I’ve got the good stuff. Want to try it out?”
Maisy worried her lip as she thought, “The video Christopher decided to use as
ammo was just a one–off thing. It only happened because I wasn’t careful. That’s why
I lost control. I’ll just be more careful this time.”
She was feeling frustrated. Besides, her parents‘ bitter looks only made her event
more weary. There was no reason why she shouldn’t let off some steam.
“Sure!”
Thus, Maisy sneaked downstairs ten minutes later.
The villa was as silent as the grave. The staff had already retired for the night.
Maisy wasn’t the least bit worried she would get caught. After all, she would just make sure to return home before dawn.
She had just snuck out of the entrance when Kenny strode out of the kitchen with a cup of tea.
He tilted his head questioningly as he regarded Maisy, who was secretly slipping away from their home. It was already so late. Just where was Maisy off to?
It was just as well that he couldn’t sleep. Hence, he wasted no time following her out of concern.
Chapter 254
It was a silent night. However, silence wasn’t in the cards for Hevelne.
Young adults were squashed together as they swayed to the pulsing heat under the dim lighting.
To Kenny’s ears, the music was near deafening. These partygoers were nothing but disgraceful citizens in his eyes.
He scarcely stepped foot in such places. He had only tried it out once when his classmates invited him out during his university years. However, he didn’t like the
atmosphere. So, he didn’t bother making a second trip.
Besides, he remembered telling Maisy that a bar wasn’t a place for someone like her.
Maisy had always been so pure and innocent. This place would only taint her.
Thus, he was beyond astonished when he followed Maisy to the bar.
It seemed that Maisy was very familiar with the place. Alas, he lost sight of her after pushing himself into the establishment.
Meanwhile, Maisy wasted no time swanning to the hot guy who asked her out earlier.
His eyes brightened with excitement when he noticed her. Then, he slipped her a pill and led her to the dance floor once she swallowed it.
It seemed that the drug had taken effect quite quickly as Maisy had thrown caution to the wind as she danced to the music. She was practically glued to the hot guy.
before her.
Everyone else didn’t find their behavior bizarre at all. Instead, they only had their minds on getting more intoxicated. All they wanted to do was let everything go as they partied hard.
Kenny wasted hours trying to find Maisy.
Just as he was questioning himself as to whether he had made a mistake, he suddenly caught sight of Maisy twisting her hips this way and that against a man
This was a Maisy he had never seen before. She had a ton of makeup on her face.
The expression on her face showed that she was more than happy in her situation.
She didn’t care one whit that the man was running his hands up and down her body.
Earlier, she was wearing a jacket. Now, it was completely off. The only thing she was. wearing was a sexy tube top. Judging by how she was going, it looked as if the clothing would fall at any given moment.
If this weren’t the sister he had grown up with, he would’ve assumed that he was hallucinating or utterly mistaken.
Suffice it to say, his jaw was on the proverbial floor.
Maisy had no idea that Kenny was there and enjoyed the hot guy’s wild ministration.
After a few moments, he held her chin and kissed her.
Kenny immediately snapped out of it and stomped toward Maisy.
“How’s the goods?” the hot guy asked.
Maisy, who was having the time of her life, passionately replied, “It’s fantastic.
However, I wonder if you can make my night better?”
“Bathroom?”
“Sure!”
Just as the two were about to leave, Maisy was suddenly yanked back.
She screeched in frustration. “Who the fuck?”
Kenny felt his vein bulging when he heard her cussing. “Maisy!”
That one word promptly sobered Maisy up.
“Kenny!”
Kenny dragged Maisy out of the bar.
None of them saw someone taking a video of Maisy, from when she took the pill until Kenny dragged her out of the bar.
Meanwhile, the hot guy instinctively barred their way when he saw the beauty he was going to have his way with was dragged away.

Kenny merely shoved him back. “Get lost!”
Maisy couldn’t keep up with what was happening. Her mind was a mess as she followed Kenny out of the bar.
She only managed to gather her wits as the cold wind blew against her skin after Kenny tossed her into the car.
Why was Kenny at Revelrie?
Chapter 255
Kenny’s face was thunderous as his veins bulged. “Why were you at the bar in the middle of the night? Also, why were you so close to some random guy?”
The sight earlier was akin to a painful wake–up call for him. He had been deathly
mistaken about Maisy’s character over the years.
“Kenny, I… Please listen to me. I only swung by a few months ago. Our family’s a
mess right now. I can’t sleep recently due to all the stress and worry,” Maisy hastily
came up with an explanation.
Kenny’s eyes were still filled with doubt.
Maisy was beyond anxious. She couldn’t allow her family to know about her little excursion. Otherwise, they would banish her and remove her from the Wiliams family
faster than she could blink!
So, she cried as she hugged Kenny and pressed her lips against his in a fit of panic.
Kenny’s eyes went wide as he stiffened.
“Kenny, I like you. I… can’t bring myself to confide in anyone about this secret. It’s been stressing me out. I was afraid you’d look down on me and only see me as your
sister. Yet… yet, I fell in love with you.”
Maisy’s eyes were brimming with aggrieved tears. Then, she slapped herself.
“Kenny, just forget about this, okay? I shouldn’t stay with you guys. Kenny, I’m sorry. I know I scared you. I’m really sorry! I’ll hide my feelings and won’t let our parents know. I had a few drinks today and haven’t been sleeping well. So, you could… could
just think of me spewing nonsense!”
Kenny held Maisy’s hand tightly. He was in no position to think right now. “Don’t hit yourself. Just give me some time.”
Never in his wildest dreams did he think that Maisy was in love with him.
“I just love you so much. I feel so guilty and disgusted with myself. I can’t sleep
because of this agony. So, I came here to get wasted. I thought if I could just fall for

someone else, maybe I could forget about you. Yet, I can’t help but find the kiss.
utterly repulsive. I…”
Maisy trailed off and hugged Kenny tightly. “I’m sorry, Kenny.”
Kenny’s arms awkwardly hung in the air for a few seconds before he slowly wrapped
them around her.
“Don’t apologize. This isn’t your fault. Just give me some time, okay?”
Maisy loved him.
He thought about it and found that he wasn’t opposed to the idea.
Maisy secretly let out a breath of relief. She knew her brothers far too well. So, she
was certain that she was in the clear now!
In the meantime, Christopher had taken a video of Kenny and Maisy kissing.
When he watched the video he had taken, he felt a surge of disgust roiling within him.
Maisy would open her legs for anyone!
His heart ached as his mind went to Skylar. He wanted to win her back.
The man she was dating right now wasn’t as good–looking as him. Besides, they had a bond that spanned for years. There was no way things would end so easily.”
He knew Skylar. Skylar had always placed a great deal of importance on the people she cared about. As long as he was sincere enough, he was sure Skylar would
forgive him!
The following day, Skylar couldn’t help but feel guilty as she went downstairs.
Breakfast was rather simple. There was only a cup of milk and a plate of sandwiches
on the table.
She decided to make a break for it after inhaling her breakfast.
She wasn’t that shameless to act as though nothing had happened last night. Her
mind was being particularly annoying.
Chapter 255
Just as she was grabbing her purse and wearing her shoes, Joe’s voice rang out behind her. “Didn’t you say something about getting the first aid kit yesterday?”
Instead, she completely abandoned him.
She was pretending as though it had completely slipped her mind.
Joe’s eyes never wavered from Skylar’s figure as he curled his lips into a smirk. “Oh, you’ve forgotten? Do you need me to help you refresh your memory?”
date with a friend to visit Charles today I’ll see you when I see you!”
She wasted no time dashing out after saying those words. She had never fled so fast
Joe arched a brow at her escape. Skylar was as quick as ever.
Skylar couldn’t help but remind her, “I can see you drooling. Have you forgotten that you’re married?”
She t
Alas, Natalie refused to believe her. “Skylar, I swear if you keep doing this, I’ll start believing you one day. Do you think I’m unaware of how tiny your social circle is?”
