“Thank you, Kevin”
Lily said softly.
Kevin reached for the necklace but as soon as his hands grasped it, it accidentally slipped out of his fingers to the ground.
With a fake shock look on his face, Blakely gasped
“Kevin! How could!? You threw it on the ground on purpose! That necklace is for Lily… why would you do that to her!?
At that moment, Kevin turned around to see several of Lily’s co-workers crowding around him.
One woman whispered to the other,
“I don’t why she married someone like that. She could do so much better!”
Lily took a deep breath,
“I’m sure that it was an accident Blakely. Isn’t that right babe?
Feeling his face turn red in anger, Kevin snapped
“I’m sorry that it happened. Lily, you deserve the real thing not just some fake copy of it from a small jeweler.”
Seeing her employees gossiping with one another, Lily stepped forward and whispered into Kevin’s ear,
“Kevin, please apologize to Blakely. We’re at my job and so much is going on today already. Even if it was an accident, you need to apologize to Blakely because this is my work, it’s important to me and I can’t let a drama like this happen especially not this week.”
Kevin slowly nodded and reluctantly turned to Blakely,
“I’m sorry that I dropped the necklace that you got for my wife.”
“Thank you.”
Lily mouthed to Kevin
Turning to both Blakely and Kevin, Lily continued.
“I’m already running so late. I have to go, but thank you both. I’ll talk to you soon”
After Lily got into the building, Kevin bent down to pick the necklace up and tossed it to Blakely.
Sadly, Blakely reached for the necklace but missed and all the fake diamonds popped out on the ground.
Kevin turned around and as he began to walk towards his motorbike, he heard Blakely’s rude voice,
“Stop! I know you can hear me. I command you to stop!”
Blakely screamed as he chased Kevin.
Blakely continued,
“This necklace worth more money than you could ever imagine and you broke it! How could do such a damage!? Poor Lily… you just won’t let her have anything nice, will you?”
Kevin turned around and looked at Blakely with an expressionless face, revealing his chiseled jawline and perfectly sculpted cheekbones.
He firmly said,
“One, Lily is my wife, Blakely. You better stay away from her.”
He climbed on his motorbike and continued,
“Two, it’s my job to give gifts to my wife so tonight, I’ll give her the real DreamLover. She deserves more than a knock-off and she deserves it from her husband, not you.”
After a while, Kevin looked at Blakely and smirked
“Third, move… you’re blocking my way.”
Blakely furiously watched Kevin drive away as he yelled,
“Nice try, idiot! You can’t even afford a car… how do you expect to buy the DreamLover? You’re such a loser!”
Blakely bent over and picked a rock off the ground. He threw it with all of his might and it hit the back of Kevin’s motorbike.
Blakely gave himself a self-satisfied smile as Kevin drove away unaware that his bike was smashed.
A couple of Lily’s co-workers took out that cell-phones and snapped photos of Kevin’s broken motorbike as he drove away.
On the top floor of the Skyfall, Lily sat behind her desk. Her eyes were filled with anger as she looked out the window and thought to herself,
“Kevin knew how important today is for me and yet, he still picked a fight with Blakely. I know that Blakely was out of line but that’s just who Blakely is! Besides, Blakely is the only choice I have to save my company. The survival of my company and my staffs depends on the money his boss will be investing. Now that Kevin has offended him, how am I supposed to convince him to help me to talk his boss, Mr. Williams?”
Her phone rang and seeing Kevin’s name, she bit her lower lips before she answered,
“I can’t talk right now.”
She snapped
“Lily, I’m sorry about earlier. I know how stressed you are and I shouldn’t have taken Blakely so serious. It’s just that, that guy got on my skin.”
Lily shook her head,
“That guy is the best chance that I have to save my company! He directly reports to the Williams family and I don’t know if you know who they are but, they are the richest family in the whole of Veridonia. I know his investments will be able to save my company.”
Kevin laughed to himself,
“It still amazes me that after all these years Lily still hasn’t connected the fact that my last name is the same as the William’s company. She must think that it’s just a coincidence. Well, she is right about one thing.
Even though the Williams family is secretly bankrupt, there is a Williams’s family member who is now officially the richest man in Veridonia and I’m going to save her company. I can’t tell her the truth just yet tho, I mean I have lied to her for too long about my real family and identity, I need to find the right moment to be honest with her or else I could risk losing her forever.
He snapped out of his thoughts and spoke to Lily,
“I promise you that everything will be ok. Let me leave you to work and let me also remind you that, I love you so much Lily.”
Lily felt her eyes well up with tears,
“I know you do.”
Hanging up, Kevin declared to himself
“I’m going to make Lily love me again. It’s not her fault, it’s mine. I let myself disappear after the money went away but I’m going to make things better. I’m finally feeling like myself again and that means I can be the man Lily deserves.”
Kevin closed his eyes as he couldn’t help but smile for he understood that even amidst every storm, there were moments of calm that will make it all worthwhile.
With new-found determination, he looks determined and confident to face the challenges ahead with unwavering strength and hope.

CHAPTER 197
After about five days, she would be like any other normal person, and she wouldn't be able to use medicinal herbs to regain what she had lost. I can't believe that this pill can do all that, Kevin marveled. His thoughts were interrupted by an unfamiliar ringtone. For a second, he wondered if there was a burglar in the house, but then he realized that the sound was coming from his pocket.Who would be making a video call to Penny in the middle of the night? Could it be her boyfriend? Kevin wondered. By reflex, he answered the call. A moment later, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her closet picking out clothes. Oops, didn't mean to see that, Kevin thought to himself.She looked very familiar to him, but he just couldn't place her. While he was looking at her, trying to figure out who she was, the woman turned around to see why nobody was talking yet. When she saw Kevin, she screamed and disconnected the call.That's when Kevin realized that she was the young woman whose gr
CHAPTER 196
"How much do you want?" His father asked him, as expected, Wyatt started to freak out. Mike said, "You think money grows on trees? Didn't I just give you that much a few days ago?" How could Wyatt Tripp not go ballistic? He'd worked his entire life to build up his business and now his son was just giving his money away. Mike was frustrated by his father's response. He'd only gotten in this situation because he was trying to get elected student leader.If his father wasn't willing to help, he might have to tell his classmates the truth. "What are you talking about, Dad? School’s going great. And my teachers are fantastic." Mike told his father, laying it on thick. "It's definitely a serious program."“What the hell are you talking about? When did I ask you about school?" Wyatt shouted into his phone. I don't give a crap if you like the place or not. "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing great." He continued. "But it would really help if you could transfer some money into my account.""I'll tra
CHAPTER 195
"It wouldn't be a great idea to trick her like that." He really didn't want to make a bad impression on Penny. "No problem, Mike." Luther continued. "If Penny helps you pay the bill, you can use it as an excuse to get closer to her. You could even connect with her online to arrange to repay her and to get to know her better." Mike got really excited by this idea.He slapped Luther on the back and said, "I like the way you think. It's a good thing I brought you two guys along." When Kevin heard this, he quickly headed back to the VIP room. As he got to the door, Penny was walking out. Kevin came up with a plan of his own. As Penny brushed against him, he used the light touch that he'd learned about in the secret guide and took her phone and wallet.Let's see what Mike does now. Kevin smirked as he slipped the items into his jacket. With all his posturing, he isn't really that strong. Let's see him show his true colors. When Kevin returned to his seat and sat down, Mike and his two budd
CHAPTER 194
"That has to be disappointing. You think you're more handsome than me? Everyone knows that just isn't true." Kevin teased him. "What do you mean by that?" Mike retorted as he slammed his fist on the table. "Don't be angry, Mike. This whole thing really isn't worth it." Lionel tried to persuade his friend. Then Luther tried to calm him down. "Relax, Mike. You're absolutely right. Kevin must be jealous of you. That's why I said there's something wrong with this pill.""You still don't understand, do you? Both you and your father were cheated by someone. This isn't an augmentation pill at all. Kevin told them bluntly. An augmentation pill is more of a light blue color. Plus it contains some floral ingredients which gives it a beautiful fragrance. Take another look at the medicinal pill you just gave our professor." Kevin continued."It's obviously the wrong color and has no fragrance at all." They were all stunned to hear him say this. Even Penny reacted and stared keenly at Kevin. Mike
CHAPTER 193
"Don't be so modest, Mike. Who is better qualified to be our class leader?" Luther chimed in. The rest of the students just sat there quietly and watched the show that the three of them were putting on. But they didn't want to seem ungrateful. So they were willing to go along with the idea of electing Mike to the position."Since no one has any objections, then how could I decline? But let's just call it a temporary position. If anyone feels that I'm not carrying my weight, just say so." Mike declared as he raised his glass to toast his classmates.Professor Murdock stayed out of the discussion. And quietly observed her students as they drank their wine and socialized with each other. Meanwhile, Penny just sat quietly by the window nursing her glass to mute. Her classmates were too intimidated by her to go up and talk to her.While this was going on, Mike took Lionel aside and asked him to go down to his car and bring back a red gift box that he'd left in the trunk. Lionel came back a
CHAPTER 192
"Since you think this is just a bus pass, I guess I'll just put it back in my wallet." Kevin said as he started to take it back from the concierge. “Well, since you've already taken it out, why don't we give it a try?" Mike replied. He obviously didn't want to pass up this opportunity to make Kevin look like a fool. So he ran things up and added."Let's see what the hotel staff can do with it." While the crowd was laughing at Kevin, the hotel employees were staring in disbelief. They weren't sure how to defuse the situation. The employee who was holding Kevin's card started to get very nervous when she took a good look at it. During their training, all of the employees of the Whistler Hotel had been required to memorize the appearance of the Supreme VIP card. And that's exactly what Kevin had handed her. Cook had explained to them that there were only five cards like this in all of Veridonia. And they were only given to the hotel's most prestigious clients.The group of students saw t
