Chapter 198: Gift at Sky-High Price

At eight o'clock in the evening, Club Miracle was alive with the sound of music and colorful lights.Cheyenne and Kate made quite an entrance, stunning everyone in the room. Especially Cheyenne,with her fair skin, alluring eyes, and curvaceous figure accentuated by a black backless dress thatmade her look like a seductive fox spirit.

The dance floor was packed with leggy beauties dressed for summer while groups of men andwomen chatted over drinks. As they made their way through the crowd to their private room whereKate's friends were waiting for them, Cheyenne spotted Kate's target for the night - GraemeMathews.

He was a young man in his early twenties wearing a grey short-sleeved shirt paired with a matchingjacket and black sweatpants. He had delicate features framed by black-rimmed glasses that gavehim an intellectual air.

Cheyenne knew that approaching someone like him would not be easy since he seemed moreinterested in studying than partying. But as soon as she walked into the room, all eyes were on heras people clamored to drink and play games with her.

Kate had designed this game of Truth or Dare specifically to win over Graeme's heart. As a goodwingwoman should do, Cheyenne drank several beers until she became slightly tipsy beforepassing an empty bottle to Kate.

"Okay then," said Kate shyly while looking at Graeme before choosing Dare instead of Truth.

"I dare you to kiss the first guy on your left," Cheyenne said resolutely.

The group cheered loudly after hearing this challenge but Graeme looked embarrassed as he tightlyclenched his hands hidden inside his sleeves without saying anything yet.

However, one girl sitting next to him refused outrightly, "No way! Graeme doesn't even like you."

Cheyenne raised an eyebrow curiously at this unknown girl and asked, "Who are you?"

"That's Peyton Stout," whispered Kate sadly into Cheyenne's ear. "Graeme's childhood friend whomhe grew up together."

Cheyenne hated those words - childhood friend - because it reminded her of Abbie who wormed herway into the life between herself and Kevlin...

"Childhood friends don't necessarily mean lovers," retorted Cheyenne fiercely while staring directlyat Graeme who still remained silent...

Graeme may have felt embarrassed, as he clenched his fists and stood up, his sharp gaze fixed onKate. "Don't bully Peyton, she's my friend."

Bully?

Kate felt wronged. She liked him so much, but he scolded her because of Peyton. The livelyatmosphere in the private room began to turn cold when suddenly the door was twisted open fromoutside.

A clear and pleasant voice sounded in everyone's ears as a person wearing a white suit walked inwith a toy teddy bear in hand, looking elegant like an aristocrat. Upon closer inspection of hishandsome features and slender figure, one could tell it was none other than the famous star -Reece.

"Sorry I'm late." Reece finished taking the last photo shoot and drove through three red lights beforefinally arriving.

Who knew that upon entering the room he would see Cheyenne pouting like a little frog while thebirthday girl herself was crying?

Without thinking twice about it, he sat down at the first seat on the left side near to door where therehappened to be an empty seat next to Graeme which Kate had previously occupied.

Reece seemed out of place as he touched his head,"What's going on? Why are you crying? Stopcrying now! Look what I brought for you?" That blue teddy bear smiled innocently; it was Disney'slimited edition Winnie-the-Pooh that Reece had spent one month searching for.

It was Kate's first time seeing such a gentle-hearted side of Reece; they always clashed wheneverthey met each other before this moment.

He actually put so much thought into preparing her favorite gift!

Peyton was clearly shocked beyond words while Kate apparently knew famous star Reecepersonally?

Wasn't she supposed to have lost both parents with only a brother who was interning at hospital?

The next moment another heavy blow hit Peyton hard making her feel burnt inside out.

Cheyenne placed her own birthday gift onto the table. When it was opened, it revealed cherryblossom jade bracelets inside.

Reece who couldn't resist showing off said sourly, "I don't accept this! This box is made fromrosewood; this jade bracelets must be worth at least three million dollars! Cheyenne, I want onetoo!"

Three... three million dollars?

Peyton's heart almost jumped out of its chest!

She just wanted to say that it must've been some fake goods bought from some boutique store foronly tens of dollars...

But a top-tier celebrity like Reece wouldn't lie about it.

What was Kate's background? Why could she receive bracelets worth three million as a birthday giftfrom a friend?

Peyton's face burned with embarrassment and she looked down at Graeme, who also seemed to beinterested in Kate. Cheyenne saw the change in both of them and sneered, thinking that a man likeGraeme was not worthy of Kate's affection.

Suddenly, Cheyenne pushed Kate into Reece's arms and started acting out while drunk. "Let'scontinue the game we were playing earlier, kiss!"

Kate was caught off guard and fell into Reece's embrace. He instinctively held onto her waist astheir lips met.

Their eyes locked together amidst the steamy atmosphere. Reece felt something soft and warm onhis lips so he curiously licked it.

Boom!

The girl blushed on his chest which made him think that maybe he had been single for so long thathe found even this silly girl attractive...

From Graeme's point of view, Kate and Reece were kissing passionately which made him angrybecause he thought that Kate's affection for him was so superficial.

Graeme stormed out while Peyton followed with envy written all over her face. Cheyenne leftwithout anyone noticing so when Kate came back to reality there was no one else in the roomexcept for herself and Reece.

Reece touched his lips wondering why he felt guilty about kissing Kate when he had kissedcountless other actresses before on screen?

After a moment of silence, it was Kate who broke it first by saying softly, "It was just a game; nothingmore."

"A game? You took advantage of me then said it was just a game? Don't play games with me!" Heexploded angrily.

Kate quickly tried to calm him down by stroking his hair gently. "Okay okay... I'm sorry! What can Ido to make you happy?"

"Kiss me again!" He demanded wanting to know what made her different from all those otheractresses before...

Then suddenly there was an ear-piercing scream coming from inside the room making everyonewonder if something terrible had happened...novelbin
