He didnt know what was wrong with him.
He kissed her as soon as he lowered his head.
At that moment, he felt that he couldnt control himself,
Her lips were SO soft that he couldnt stop.

Chapter 1 Take It Off

On an uninhabited island.

Raindrops pelted down like bullets, and the crashing of the waves was like drums.

With a dagger, Arielle Moore was shaving the wooden piece down with difficulty. It was as if she felt nothing as the rain continued to hit her face.

She had lost contact with her family for ten years. Just as she finally found the Southallsjust as she was about to find out the truth about her mothers death and her kidnappinga group of people who claimed to be the ones to bring her home tried to kill her.

She successfully defeated them, but the ship sunk, and she ended up on this uninhabited island.

It was her seventh day on the island, and she had yet to see any passing ships.

Fortunately, there were many trees and plants on the island, and she had built herself a simple wooden boat.

Right when she moved to work on the oars, it had abruptly rained heavily.

Rising to her feet, Arielle was about to stretch when she spotted something dark by the rocks.

Walking over suspiciously, it startled her to find out it was a man.

The man was handsome, but his face was pale. He had an injury on his waist, and his blood was mixing together with the seawater, forming a sunset in the water.

Arielle placed her finger under the mans nose. When she realized the man was not dead, she began dragging him further into the island and into the cave she had been sleeping in for the past few days.

After starting a fire, she ran back out into the rain. It was only a brief while before she returned with some herbs.

Youre lucky that youve met me, Arielle said as she reached out to take off the mans clothes.

A quick glance at the mans waist told her that it was a deep knife wound. Did it hit his internal organs?

The moment she reached out for his wrist to take his pulse, a hand grabbed onto hers instead.

W-Who are you? The mans voice was almost a whisper, but the grip around her wrist was firm.

Shooting the man a look, Arielle gloomily said, Who am I? Im your savior. If youre not going to let go of me anytime soon, Im going to have to build you a gravestone. In memory of Nameless. Does that sound good?

The man only furrowed his brows in silence. Then, his eyes drifted toward the crushed herbs in her hands.

Whats the matter? Take it off! Ill help you.

With that said, Arielles hand reached toward him again.

Ill do it myself.

With a look of disdain, the man pushed her hands away and took off his shirt himself. The entire time, his dark eyes watched her warily.

Once his shirt was off, Arielle saw the mans eight packs and the V cut abs that ran down his body and into his pants. This mans figure... is a little too great, isnt it?

Unable to help herself, Arielle gulped. Blushing, she then carefully placed the crushed herbs on the mans body.

What is this? the man asked. His voice was low, and she could not hear any emotions in them.

Antiseptic herbs for stopping the bleeding.

Where am I?

In the beginning, Arielle was a little shy to be around him. However, upon hearing his constant stream of questions, she raised her head to look at him impatiently. Hes handsome, but he has too many questions. If I know where I am, I wouldnt need to be trapped in this place for seven days, would I?

If you have questions, you can ask your teacher instead. Why dont you save your strength and lie down to rest instead of speaking?

Irritated, the man muttered, This isnt how a doctor should talk to her patient.

Excuse me? Arielle deadpanned, Is this the way you should be talking to your savior?

At that, the man furrowed his brows.

Woman, youre rude.

Dude, youre impolite.

The two then glared at each other as the tension in the atmosphere rose.

In the end, Arielle was the one to give up. She saw no point in settling the score with an injured man, so she stood up and said, The rain is quite heavy, so itll be much colder at night. Im going to start the fire again. Stay right there.

As Arielle walked toward the corner, the man spoke again. Hey.

What is the matter with you again? Arielle spun around.

If I dont start this fire now, were both going to freeze to death tonight.

The mans mouth opened, but he ended up saying, Nothing.

Rolling her eyes, Arielle returned to her fire-starting.

There was only one way to start a fire on the humid islanddrilling the wood. Arielle took over an hour to finally get a tiny flame going.

However, the wind outside blew in and ended its short life.

Hey, the man said again.

What? Arielle shrieked.

The moment she spun around, she heard the sound of something metallic dropping onto the ground. Then, she spotted the lighter by her feet.

Huh?

Oh!

After a three-second silence, Arielle cursed out loud, Arent you a despicable man? You bstard!

The man slowly closed his eyes and turned away, but there was a small smile growing on his lips.

Night soon arrived.

The two rested on the two sides of the caves. In the middle of the night, Arielle woke from grunting sounds.

Opening her eyes, she realized the mans pale face was completely white. He curled into himself, cold sweat beaded all over his forehead.

Hey, jerk. Are you okay?

Arielle walked over to poke his arm, but the man did not even react to it.

Hastily, she reached out to put her hand on his temple, only to find it scorching.

His wound must be infected. Thats why hes having a fever.

Two amoxicillin would have done the trick, but where would she find amoxicillin on the uninhabited island?

Left without any options, Arielle resorted to other methods to cool him downby taking off his clothes.

However, although that lowered the mans temperature, he began shivering and mumbling about how cold it was.

Hence, Arielle moved him closer to the fire, but his condition did not improve.

Damn it, Arielle cursed before taking off her clothes. She then lay down and hugged the man to share her body heat with the man.

Who cares if hes a jerk? Its more important to save his life first.

Saving someone is a good deed. Maybe God will let me survive my way back to find out the truth with the Southalls.

If the ones who came to bring me home tried to take my life, it means that theres something wrong with the Southalls.

Ill be merciless if I find out that my father is the one who did this.

Arielle lost herself in her thoughts as she hugged the man. Soon, she fell asleep.

When she woke again, she heard voices and footsteps outside the cave.

There are other people around?

Shocked, she sat up to realize that the mans jacket was on her, but the man himself was gone.

Hurriedly putting on her clothes, she then warily walked out of the cave.

If these are the ones who tried to kill me... How professional of them.

However, when Arielle reached the cave entrance, she realized there was a line of bodyguards clothed in black. A distance away was a helicopter, and the leader of the bodyguards was speaking to the man she saved.

Right then, the man turned around.

It was the first time Arielle had seen the mans face with proper lighting. He was still handsome, and he was quite intimidating just by standing there. Other than his pallor, he looked like any other individual.

Hes quick to recover.

You...

Just as Arielle started speaking, the man interrupted, What do you want?

What? His question threw her off.

Expressionless, he explained, You saved me, so Ill fulfill a wish of yours.

Arielle was rendered speechless for a moment. How rude can you be? I saved you, but you dont even have a word of thanks?

Right as those words left Arielles lips, the bodyguards all stared at her, aghast. It was as though she had said something strange.

On the other hand, the mans expression remained neutral. Youll regret it if you miss this chance.

Arielle was fuming, but she thought, My wooden boat might not last until I reach the land.

Gritting her teeth, she squeezed out, Bring me home.

Now, it was the mans turn to look astounded.

Thats all?

What else?

She only had one wish, which was to leave the godforsaken uninhabited island.

Glancing at her as if she was an idiot, the man then headed toward the helicopter.

Three hours later, the helicopter was hovering in Jadeboroughs skies.

Is that the place? the man asked, pointing at the manor below.

I think so... Arielle barely had any memories of her childhood, but she had investigated the Southalls before returning to the country.

That place was supposed to be the Moores, but it now belonged to the man who never bothered looking for her during her ten-year disappearance, her father.

Down, the man ordered. The pilot instantly replied, Yes, sir.

Chapter 2 I Am Your Father

At the Southall residence.

The entire place was set up for a birthday party.

Shandie Southall, who was wearing the latest seasons dress from LV, was surrounded by socialites buttering her up.

Shandie, your dress is beautiful! Its like a milky way.

This is the dress from LVs spring edition, isnt it? I couldnt even rent it, but you actually managed to buy it! Your dad is so nice to you!

Happy birthday, Shandie. I heard Sam Sleight has offered you a role. Youre definitely going to be the most popular actress of the year. Dont forget about us when you become famous.

Who cares about the entertainment industry? Shannies just there for fun. Who is she? Shes Shandie Moore. Its so easy for her to be famous.

Concealing the glee in her eyes, Shandie uttered, Thank you very much. Let me go and check when the cakes coming.

When Shandie returned to the mansion, she nearly collided with her mother, who was heading toward the outside.

Mom. Lowering her voice, she whispered to Cindy Moore. Has my cousins men returned yet? Its my twentieth birthday today. I dont want others to find out that our family has a girl who was kidnapped by human traffickers.

Lovingly tidying the edge of Shandies skirt, Cindy murmured, No news is good news. Dont worry. She wont be able to come back. Even if she does, the traffickers had sold her to some faraway village. What can a country bumpkin like her do?

Shandie nodded in agreement. In fact, a part of her hoped that the country bumpkin would be able to return.

That way, she would be able to relish the fact that she was the true daughter of a wealthy family.

Bad news, Mrs. Southall, the housekeeper cried out as she rushed in. A Nightshire helicopter landed on the lawn outside.

The Nightshires? Shandies eyes lit up. Mom, say, do you think Dad invited Vinson Nightshire?

Cindy was surprised as well.

Although the Southalls were running one of the top businesses in the country, and they were one of the prominent families in Jadeborough, the Nightshires were one of the top families in the world.

Vinson Nightshire was the heir of the Nightshire Group, and the Southalls still did not have the capability of inviting Vinson to their daughters birthday party.

Maybe Vinson thinks that the business deal with our family is important?

Lets have a look. Cindy was perplexed, but it was a pleasant surprise for her.

If our family gets to build a relationship with the Nightshires, we wont need to worry about anything anymore.

After the mother and daughter touched up their makeups, they then excitedly rushed toward the lawn.

By then, a group of nouveau riche had already gathered on the lawn.

The moment Shandie walked over, the socialites crowded around her with jealous looks.

Shannie, you actually invited the Nightshires! Youre amazing.

How could you not have told me something as important as this? I shouldve hired a professional makeup artist to put on my makeup today.

Shandie smiled, but in her mind, she scoffed.

The Nightshires are here for me. Why would you need to put on any makeup?

I must have caught Vinsons interest in the ceremony held by the Nightshires last month.

Im going to be Mrs. Nightshire soon!

Right then, the helicopter door slowly opened.

As everyone watched in anticipation, a young woman in ragged clothes jumped down from the vehicle.

She was a slender young woman whose face was coated with dirt and dust. No one could see how she originally looked like. Even her hair was in a tangled mess as if she had not washed her head for an entire month.

What...

Everyone then turned to look at Shandie. Those who did not like her began mocking, Shannie, is this your esteemed guest? A beggar?

Livid, Shandie stormed over and questioned, Who are you? Who do you think you are to join my birthday party?

Birthday party? Instantly, Arielle realized who the arrogant girl was.

it was known to others that she was Cindys adopted daughter, but the detective had told her that Shandie was actually Cindy and Henricks illegitimate child.

He doesnt even know whether his real daughter is dead or alive, but hes holding a birthday party for his illegitimate daughter?

Ha.

Who am I? Arielle stared at the girl. I am your father.

You

Right as Shandie was about to lose her temper, Arielle belatedly added, Your fathers real daughter.

Shandie froze, and the others around them instantly looked interested to watch the scene unfold.

When Shandie came back to her senses, she stammered, Y-Youre Arielle Moore?

That country bumpkin?

Shes... really a country bumpkin, huh?

Fortunately, Cindy was smarter than her daughter, for she hurried forward. Arielle, is that you? Ive been waiting for you for so long. My poor child, youre finally back...

Arielles lips curled. Hello, Aunt Cindy, its been a while.

Despite the smile on her lips, her tone was sarcastic.

My mothers younger sister married my father? My father married my aunt?

What nonsense is this?

Something must be up.

The guests began whispering to each other. I heard that Mrs. Southall used to be the previous Mrs. Southalls sister.

This must be Ms. Moore, who was kidnapped by human traffickers ten years ago.

The Southalls used to be Moores Henrick Southall actually married into the Moore family. Once Maureen Moore died, the Moores all took on the family name Southall instead.

That actually happened? Seriously...

Upon hearing their chatters, embarrassment flooded Cindys mind. She cleared her throat and muttered, Darling, as long as youre back. Ill bring you to wash up. Look at you. Youre so... dirty. You must have had a difficult life in the countryside.

Shes still reminding others that I came from the countryside. It seems like she really hates me.

Right as Arielle was about to speak, a low voice sounded out behind her. Hey.

Everyone immediately turned to the owner of the voice. Once they saw the person coming down from the helicopter, they stiffened.

It was Vinson.

It was Vinson, whose every move dictated the global economy.

Mr. Nightshire? Shandie excitedly darted forward to welcome him. A-Are you here to join my birthday party? Thank you!

Shandie could not conceal the joy in her eyes, and the blush on her face was for all to see.

At the start, she thought Vinson had only sent someone to send her birthday greetings, but it turned out Vinson himself came.

The time for my springthe time for my happy lifehas come!

If she could, she would have jumped in joy.

Those around her were casting envious looks at her.

Although she was just an adopted daughter, she seemed to have gotten Vinsons attention. She had nothing but good days ahead of her.

Yet, in the next second...

Who are you?

Vinsons brows knitted as if he had just noticed Shandie. The impatience and confusion in his eyes were visible to everyone.

Vinson did not know the woman in front of him.

Pft Some of the guests could not hold back their laughter.

I thought Mr. Nightshire was here to wish Shandie a happy birthday, but it turns out he doesnt even know who she is.

Hahaha! This is hilarious. If I were her, Id bury my whole body in the sands and never come back out.

At that moment, Shandies expression changed from delight to shock, then to embarrassment. In the end, she glared at the two laughing socialites.

At the end of the day, Cindy was the quickest to recover. She stepped forward and said, Mr. Nightshire, we didnt know youd be coming today. What an honor for us to have you come. Its my daughters birthday today, so she thought you were here to wish her a happy birthday. It seems like youre here to discuss the business collaboration with Rick. Hes upstairs, so please come in.

The mocking gazes from the guests instantly disappeared.

It was also an honor to have Vinson go to his business partners place to discuss a deal.

Yet, once again, in the next second...

Do I know you?

Cindys gesture of invitation froze midair.

Mr. Nightshire... doesnt know me?

Once again, the guests were trying to hold themselves back from laughing.

Is the mother-and-daughter duo here for comedic purposes?

Cindy was internally cringing from the awkwardness.

If Vinson doesnt know me, then whos he here for?

All of a sudden, she recalled that the Arielle Moore that everyone looked down on had come out of Vinsons helicopter.

Arielles appearance had been too sudden and shocking, as she was in such a disheveled state. For a long moment, she simply could not think that Vinson and Arielle might be connected.

Does Arielle know Vinson?

Right as that thought emerged in her mind, she saw Vinson walking past her toward Arielle.

Chapter 3 Wait For Her To Make A Fool Of Herself

Vinson pressed his voice and said, Are you sure thats your wish? Ill give you another chance.

Arielle knitted her brows and looked at him. You want to grant me another wish? Do you think youre the magical Genie?

Everyone, including Shandie and Cindy, looked at Vinson and Arielle in disbelief.

Whats going on? Does this beggar know Vinson?

Vinson gazed into her eyes. When he was about to respond to her question, Henrick interrupted. Nice to see you, Mr. Nightshire! Why didnt you tell me youre coming?

All the guests jaws dropped when Henrick greeted Vinson.

Cindy instantly closed her eyes as she dared not imagined what would happen next.

What on earth is happening?

Henrick finally noticed something was amiss and started looking around.

A sudden frown warped his face the moment he saw Arielle.

Henrick turned to Shandie and said, Why did you invite a beggar to our birthday party? Get her out of here!

Shandie froze for a moment even though deep in her heart she was pleased with his reaction. Dad, shes...

Dad! Arielle interrupted. Dont you remember me? Im Sannie!

Sannie was Arielles nickname.

San... Henrick raised his brows and widened his eyes in shock. Youre Arielle?

Yes, Dad. Im Arielle, she walked up to him.

Arielle did not remember anything that had happened a decade ago, but she remembered that familiar face.

Upon hearing that, Henrick staggered.

Fear was written all over his face as he was afraid that his secret would be exposed.

Arielle knew what was going through his mind. In a steady voice, she continued, We have not met for years. I miss you so much!

Henrick was at a loss for words. He had no choice but to give her a pat on the shoulder. Welcome back, honey, but... what happened to you and Mr. Nightshire? Why do the both of you look so messy?

All the guests then started paying attention to Vinsons clothes. They were so drawn to the man himself that they did not notice how wet his clothes were.

Shandie cast a puzzled look at Arielle and Vinson.

Is there something going on between these two?

But she somehow dismissed her suspicion. Vinson falling in love with this country bumpkin? No way! Unless hes blind!

Upon seeing how awkward the atmosphere had become, Cindy stepped in and said, I think it was Mr. Nightshire who brought Arielle home.

Really? Henrick seemed to be a little less disgusted by Arielle after hearing that.

Since she was still young and doesnt remember a thing from her childhood, I guess she doesnt exactly know what happened.

Imagine the benefits we can reap if we could use her to get closer to the Nightshires.

Henrick instantly plastered a smile to his face and looked at Vinson. So youre Arielles friend? Thanks for bringing her back to us. If you dont mind, would you like to stay back, clean up a little, and dine with us?

Cindy added, Oh, yes. We have extra pairs of clothes for our guests.

Vinson initially wanted to turn down their offer, but he could not stand wearing that sea-soaked clothes anymore.

Since Vinson did not reject his officer, Henrick extended his hand and showed him the direction to the guest room. He then whispered in Cindys ear, Clean Arielle up too.

Cindy and Henrick had been married for nearly a decade, so she understood what he wanted her to do.

It was clear that Henrick wanted to use Arielle to get in the Nightshires good books.

Damn it, why is luck on Arielles and not my daughters side?

Maureen had been oppressing Cindy when she was still alive. Ill never allow her daughter to step all over mine!

Cindy nodded and played along. She then pulled Shandie aside and said, Bring her to the bathroom. Shes your older sister now, so be nice to her.

Shandie was able to read between the lines. She turned around and put on a smile. Hey, Arielle. Lets go to the bathroom, shall we?

Arielle did not believe that the mother-daughter duo would accept her into the family.

Yet, she hid her suspicion and responded with a grin. Okay!

They held hands and walked into the mansion.

Meanwhile, other guests continued to exchange whispers as they tried to figure out what Vinson was doing here.

No matter what the reason was, it was clear that from now on, they would have to show more respect to the Southalls.

At the guest room upstairs, Shandie said, You can stay here temporarily while we tidy up your room, and you can also find all the toiletries here. Ill bring you a dress.

All right. Thank you, Arielle responded.

Oh, before I forget, Shandie turned around and asked, Do you know how to use the water heater? Weve fixed the temperature, so you dont have to adjust it anymore, she reminded kindly but somehow forgot to hide the disdain in her eyes.

Arielle seemingly did not notice her expression. She responded with a gentle smile. Thanks.

Does she really think I dont know how to use the water heater?

Great. Ill bring your dress over. Sandie smiled and walked out of the room. After closing the door, the smile on her face disappeared almost instantly.

She took out a handkerchief and cleaned her hands thoroughly before throwing it on the floor.

Her hand stinks, and her body stinks. Everything about her stinks!

Vinson must have brought her here by accident. Im sure he wouldnt like a filthy woman like Arielle!

Meanwhile, Arielle was taking her own sweet time enjoying a nice warm bath in the bathroom.

Even she felt disgusted by how she looked and smelled after spending a week on the island.

As the warm water streamed down from her head to toes, she wiped off all the dirt on her face, revealing her fair complexion.

Her delicate face with fine features made her look like a dainty little fairy.

About ten minutes later, Shandie knocked on the door. Arielle, can you please open the door? I want to pass you the dress. Ive also placed a pair of heels near the door. You can wear them later.

All right. Arielle opened the door slightly to retrieve the dress.

Once again, she did not see the disgust and mockery on Shandies face.

The dress Shandie gave to Arielle was a couture dress by Gucci. It was more costly than the dress she was wearing now.

Though it took her some effort to get her hands on the dress, she could not wear it as it had a specific cut.

Its wearer must be slim and possess a supermodel-like physique. At the same time, the person needed to have a busty, curvaceous figure to be able to fit in the dress. Without an hourglass figure, any ordinary woman would look plump in it.

Since Shandie had broad shoulders but no collarbones, the dress would look unflattering on her. This was why she did not wear it for tonights party.

Once that hideous woman comes out with that dress, Im sure all the guests would laugh at her!
