Chapter 9
Vincent took off his shirt, revealing his solid chest, his hot body pressing against hers. He lightly bit her earlobe, his warm breath teasing her, igniting her inner desires.
Kimberly couldn't help but moan, then her lips were covered, a hot, deep kiss ensued, and Vincent entered her, filling her body.
Vincent was very wild tonight, the room was filled with Kimberly's moans all night.
The next day.
When Kimberly woke up, she felt weak and sore all over. She turned her head, a handsome face appeared in front of her, eyes open.
Startled, Kimberly instinctively shrank back 20 inches, the pain in her body flaring up, making her collapse onto the pillow.
Vincent chuckled, reaching out to pull her into his arms. Kimberly screamed, her whole body trembling with pain, not daring to struggle.
Vincent immediately started kneading her breasts roughly.
Even so, Kimberly didn't forget the task Maya gave her. Her voice hoarse, "Mr. Watson, about the invitation, could you give me a chance?"
Vincent propped himself up, half-leaning on the bed. Kimberly, enduring the pain, turned over and leaned on his chest, very gentle and clingy.
"Okay."
Hearing this, Kimberly's beautiful eyes lit up, "Thank you, Mr. Watson."
"Your moans last night probably echoed through the whole hallway." Vincent's lips curled up meaningfully.
"Let them hear, besides business travelers, who else stays in hotels if not for sex?" Kimberly blinked, looking somewhat innocent.
Her look stirred up Vincent's desire again. He intended to satisfy himself once more, but seeing her limp body, he couldn't bear it. He just patted her head, "Rest for a while, I'll take you to lunch at noon."
"Okay."
Saying this, Kimberly slid off his body and fell asleep without any courtesy.
Vincent laughed, not even realizing the doting smile in his eyes.
After lunch, Vincent drove Kimberly home as usual, the limited edition Bentley openly driving into the Knight Mansion. Kimberly got out of the car, politely thanking him.
"Thank you, Mr. Watson, for the invitation."
"Aren't you forgetting something?" Vincent curled his lips.
Slightly stunned, Kimberly understood. She blinked and leaned in to kiss him on the lips. Just as she was about to pull back, Vincent's big hand held her head, engaging in a passionate kiss.
After the kiss, Kimberly walked into the house, while Vincent glanced at the second floor, the curtains just closing.
Every time Kimberly entered the house, Maya could accurately come down from upstairs, and Kimberly knew she was always being watched.
Taking the invitation out of her pocket and placing it on the table, Kimberly looked tired, "I got the invitation."
Instantly, Maya's face lit up with joy. She quickly walked over, taking the invitation, her eyes full of uncontrollable excitement.
"Well done this time."
Seeing Maya's cunning and excited face, Kimberly felt a wave of discomfort. She found an excuse to go upstairs to rest, and Maya didn't stop her.
Halfway up, Maya called her, "The party is in two days. During these two days, you need to apply a face mask morning and night, take a rose bath every day, and make sure your hair, fingernails, and toenails are very clean, understand?"
Kimberly felt a chill in her heart. She knew that even with the invitation, Maya wouldn't let her off at the party.
"I understand."
"Go rest, I'll have Susan make fish soup for you tonight."
Kimberly nodded and quickly went upstairs.
Vincent drove back to the company, immediately calling Ray to his office.
"Investigate Kimberly's background and her relationship with the Knight Family over the years."
Ray instinctively replied, "I heard rumors that Miss Sanchez is the Knight Family's adopted daughter."
"Are you investigating or hearing rumors?" Vincent's voice was calm, but it carried an invisible pressure.
Ray got nervous, his heart pounding, "Sorry, Mr. Watson, I'll investigate right away."
"Go, especially check on that Maya from the Knight Family."
"Okay."
Two days later, Kimberly and Maya attended the party in full dress.
Tonight, Maya dressed Kimberly very beautifully and seductively. She wore a custom black fishtail gown, a white handbag, her long hair loosely pinned up with a crystal hairpin, two strands of slightly curled hair hanging down, her wild makeup making her small face look more delicate. Even without any jewelry, she looked even more understated and elegant, with a stunning and luxurious charm.
As soon as Kimberly entered, all eyes turned to her, everyone's expressions filled with amazement.
"Tonight, you must perform well and listen to me. Even though you've hooked up with Mr. Watson, once he's tired of you, you're nothing. So, you need to find several backups." Maya's face was cunning, her voice low and threatening.
Upon hearing this, Kimberly's heart trembled as if she had been stabbed and then twisted the knife several times. It felt like a giant stone was pressing on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.
But in front of Maya, Kimberly was nothing more than a puppet. All she had to do was obey orders.
So Kimberly nodded, her eyes dull and lifeless.
Wealth and power intertwined on this splendid night, reaching their peak in the brilliance and influence of the elite. Well-dressed waiters shuttled back and forth among the socialites, serving numerous dignitaries and upper-class individuals. The stage was dazzling with lights, and the gathering of celebrities declared luxury and nobility with every move they made.
In addition to the socialites, the party also invited many well-known media and journalists. The flashing lights of the cameras made the scene even more dazzling.
Many men came over to clink glasses with Kimberly, and many asked for her contact information.
Of course, she was unwilling to give it, but under the oppressive gaze of Maya, she had no choice but to add them on WhatsApp one by one.
At this moment, a sudden commotion and exclamations arose, and everyone turned neatly towards the entrance of the banquet hall. Kimberly and Maya did the same. Vincent, dressed in a silver-gray tailcoat, slowly entered. His handsome appearance was almost unreal, like a god descending from the heavens.
The women at the banquet gasped, throwing admiring glances at Vincent.
Vincent spotted Kimberly from a distance with just one glance. Their eyes met across the crowd, and seeing Vincent's gaze, a blush crept up Kimberly's cheeks, spreading from her cheeks to the corners of her eyes.
Vincent faintly curled his lips and then looked away.
The main character of tonight's banquet had arrived. Vincent stepped onto the stage, exuding a noble aura, with a perfectly proportioned figure and a flawless face sculpted by God, enough to make countless women swoon and leave the men in awe, feeling inferior.
No one could pull him down from his pedestal; he was the King of Emerald City.
Maya nudged Kimberly with her elbow, a sly smile on her face, "Vincent looks really good. If you could marry into the Watson Family, you would be set for life. But how could that be possible?"
Kimberly remained silent, her eyes slightly lowered, slowly clenching her fists.
After the usual formalities, Vincent finished his polite remarks, encouraging everyone to drink and have fun, and then stepped off the stage.
Even so, everyone's eyes still unconsciously followed Vincent.
He was just too charming.
Many women wanted to use the excuse of toasting to get closer to Vincent, but whatever he said made those eager women leave even before their glasses touched.
Maya led Kimberly around like they were shopping, making her toast to everyone, regardless of whether they knew them or if they were qualified. With Kimberly's beauty, even if the Knight Family wasn't qualified, all the men would give Kimberly face.
In high society, beauty was the key to opening doors.
And Maya wanted Kimberly to be that key.
Throughout the banquet, Maya was all smiles, using Kimberly's name to secure some deals and even arranging some dinners for Kimberly.
Kimberly, however, could do nothing, like a delicate doll, letting Maya arrange everything.
Taking advantage of Maya's trip to the restroom, Kimberly finally had a moment to breathe. She swapped her drink for plain water from a waiter and drank it, easing the discomfort in her stomach caused by the alcohol.
At this moment, she noticed a waiter in the corner pouring something into a glass.
Before she could take a closer look, a voice sounded, "I didn't expect Miss Sanchez to please me in bed just so you and Maya could come to this party to find a sugar daddy?"
Hearing this, Kimberly turned her head. Vincent was standing behind her, and she choked, unable to say a word.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't lie to you about anything. I just needed the invitation."
No matter what, Kimberly's stubbornness remained.
Vincent sneered, a hint of scrutiny in his dark brown eyes, "What is your purpose for coming here with Maya?"
