Chapter 253

The mirror reflected a man with eyes flaring with desire. It was a sight that he had. never seen on his person. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

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.
