mission and come all the way to Cleapolis from the Empire of the Setting Sun was because of Paige!Back in the day, he could never hope to impress a girl like her, who came from the powerful Tanner Family. He could only secretly pine after her, and he had plans to woo her only after he had made something of himself.However, right now, she was getting all chummy with Kingsley, and seeing this made Emory so angry that he could explode. The intimacy between them was only something he could dream of; he never even got to touch her hand!Nancy was bewildered, too. “Paige, do you actually know him?”In stark contrast to the way she behaved around Serena, Nancy knew it was futile to be jealous of Paige. After all, the girl came from the most prominent family of the Northern Circle of Qustia; the power and respect they had was far superior than those of the Jovovich Family.Presently, Paige shrugged as she said, “I guess you could say I know him. I mean, he did sleep in my room for a night.” Nancy’s words died in her throat as her eyes widened to the size of saucers, and everyone else froze in their seats.

He wanted to slap himself in the face for offering the future son-in-law of the Tanner Family security work at Spearhead Group. I could have died!Meanwhile, Kingsley caught the embarrassed look onTyler’s face and drawled in amusement, “Don’t worry about it, Mr. Jovovich. There’s nothing special going on between me and Miss Tanner over here; I was merely a guest in her home that night.”This set everyone at ease.“Oh, thank goodness. I thought the world went mad! I mean, an orphan and Miss Tanner getting together? Please!”“My heart stopped beating for a second there. I actually believed he married into the Tanner Family!”They patted their chests in relief, but only Tyler looked stormy. That was beyond humiliating! I was so scared of offending this nobody that I’m shaking! Granted, nobody
