Chapter 6: Playing with Fire
Kevin noticed the strong smell of alcohol as he passed by Lilian, frowning.
Although he has to drink for social events sometimes, he generally avoids it as much as possible.
By the time he arrived home at the apartment, it was close to midnight.
He had been busy with the company stuff all day and didn’t have time to think of Jessie.
It wasn’t until he saw a client with his wife that Kevin realized he was married now.
It was his first night after they got married, so he decided to go home after dealing with his client.
He was hoping Jessie would be smart, sensible, and wouldn’t cause any trouble for him.
He located the house he bought, took the keys his assistant prepared for him, and opened the door.
It was pitch black inside, so he couldn’t see the layout clearly.
As he instinctively reached for the living room light, he was surprised by the sound of even breathing.
Thinking there was an intruder, he quickly found the light switch and turned it on.
The living room lit up, and the sudden brightness made him squint slightly. He looked closely and saw someone lying on the couch.
