But Layla couldn't see it and denied it."Of course not. Boss and I are not like that. That's the line we will not cross and never be crossed."I glanced at Eduardo whose eyes darkened. I don't think you and Eduardo agree on that.Layla might not know but Eduardo has set his eyes on her.My fingers holding the cup tightened. If Kane did not act soon, Layla would be completely fallen into Eduardo's trap. I should think of a plan soon.Gabrielle did not buy Layla's denial. "Really? But seeing you two, I think you guys are about to cross that line. We are not fools. We could see-"Eduardo interrupted Gabrielle's new round of teasing. "Layla said it's not. So it's not." Eduardo's eyes were a bit domeenering. He changed the direction of the conversation to the interrogator, "How about the two of you? Are you guys dating?"Gabrielle was about to answer when Levi frowned, "Eduardo, don't put us into an embarrassing situation. You know I have a girlfriend."Gabrielle's face turned ugly, "Ja

Saturday morning, Layla and Kane left the house.After they left, I waited for a few minutes before taking out my car keys. I followed them.Of course, I don't have anything going on today. Nor did I contact Gabrielle or Levi to make up a lie.If I were to involve them, those two would not allow me to be left alone. They might join me in following these guys. With other people in tow, our spying would be obvious and we might end up ruining this hard-earned date.Initially, I don't plan to follow them but this was Kane and Layla's first date. I am kinda anxious, especially with Kane's zero romantic experience. If something happens in the middle, I bet this man would just end up escorting Layla directly to home right after the task.Or what if Eduardo learned where Layla was and wanted to interrupt them? Who would stop the unnecessary people who wanted to meddle with them? This was a rare opportunity that we can't waste.Anyway, I am really worried.I would just take a peek. If the atmo

A/n: This chapter is fixed. Thank you for waiting. **** "I have never been this embarrassed before. My tall figure, handsome face, and charisma are very evident. How could you mistake me for a stalker? People stalk me, not the other way around. You give yourself too much credit." "If not because my girlfriend threw a tantrum and dropped me off in the wrong place, I wouldn't have followed you to ask you to give me a ride." I glanced at Paul from my peripheral vision. I was currently driving and giving this talkative guy a ride. I thought again why should I be the good person here? After Paul proved his identity and that it was all a misunderstanding, the police officers left Paul to me. Since I bothered the police officers, I have to take this responsibility. Paul told me the reason why he followed me. He had an argument with his girlfriend earlier today. They have a cold war. When he just took a quick visit to the restroom, his girlfriend drove away with his car and his belongi

Even without the ID, the guard and the host knows Paul so we were able to come in. Paul opened up one of the VIP rooms. This room was big and everything we need was there. We have our own private bar, big couches, karaoke, and board games. At the front was a huge glass wall that oversee the dance floor below. We can choose to draw the curtain to get some privacy. It was not night yet, so there were not many people on the dancefloor. Paul mentioned that the real party starts at midnight when people get wasted and the music bangs to the roof. "Do you drink?" Paul took the bartender's spot and mixed up some drinks. I watched him show his skills in bartending with interest. "I don't. But I would like to try." It was rare for me to take initiative to drink. I just want to get those complicated thoughts out of my mind. "How much can you take?" Paul skillfully opened another bottle and it made a 'plop' sound. "Just little sips." "How could you get fun with little sips? To start the p

A/n: This is for chapter 50. **** Wayne walked towards me and sat at my side. "Where is Bill?" "His family called. He had to go home." "Oh." Wayne handed me the drink. "Sober yourself with this." I drank the coffee and my whole body relaxes. I should be on guard being alone with another man that I just met today. But I felt comfortable with Wayne and it felt like we had been friends for a long time. Wayne and I clicked together whatever topic it is. The music was loud and the cheers below were getting louder. I saw Paul and George join the dance floor. Since the two don't have a partner, they compete with each other. George danced like a woman earning loud cheers from the crowd. "Are you sure you are friends with them?" I asked teasingly. "I really questioned that often too." Wayne answered seriously. But there was a laugh at the corner of his mouth. We watched the dancefloor as we conversed in the VIP room. There was no awkwardness between us. No matter how much nois
