Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Novel by Rex Ring

Tiffany was stunned.

She wondered if she had accidentally triggered some kind of trap

The mural hanging on the beam of the lounge suddenly moved. An arrow flew out from the mural and shot straight towards Tiffany’s head.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Tillany was completely unprepared and stood rooted to her spot, shocked.

By the time she wanted to retreat, it was too late.

Tiffany’s face turned pale.

A huge force pulled her out of the way in the nick of time. Tiffany was pulled into a warm embrace.

Tiffany felt dizzy from the sudden movement, but she did not feel any of the pain which she had anticipated.

She opened her eyes and saw that she was on the floor. The

person she

pressing down on was Richard. As for the arrow that almost killed her, it had landed at the spot where she had just stood.

The tail of the arrow was still vibrating.

This scene felt strikingly familiar.

Tiffany suddenly recalled the incident at Velvet & Vine. She was also almost injured by an arrow.

Tiffany nearly teared up from anger. She cried, “Richard, you bastard! Did I offend you in any shape or form? Are you deliberately trying to kill me by setting up such a trap?

Tiffany felt wronged.

She swore she adhered to the etiquette as a guest. Firstly, she did not barge into the host’s room, and secondly, she did not go to places she was prohibited from entering. She was just enjoying the scenery in the lounge. However, even that almost cost her life

She would not tolerate such nonsense.

Richard did not expect this to happen either.

There were actually many hidden traps in Royal Bay.

The traps on the second and third floors especially were all automatically activated when triggered.

Usually, when the servants came up to the second or third floors, they would stay in the designated areas.

The first person to come here aside from the servants was the Miracle Healer, who now looked aggrieved before Richard.

Richard felt slightly apologetic and said, “Sorry. I forgot to remind you about the traps.

Tiffany felt even more aggrieved. Her eyes were red as she complained, “So it’s my fault then?”

For the first time, Rickard felt that he was in a dilemma.

He said sheepislily, “I didn’t mean that.

Tiffany sniffed and grumbled, “Forget about it. I just have bad luck I suppose.”

Her voice was nasal from nearly tearing up just now, so she sounded much more adorable than before.

After saying that, Tiffany was about to get up when she realized she had been lying on top of Richard the whole time.

In order to save her just now, Richard quickly pulled her away but both of them fell to the floor due to inertia.

To make things even more awkward. Richard’s hand was still around her waist.

Tiffany panicked and quickly got up. Then, she distanced herself from Richard,

She was worried that Richard would find out about her true identity.

She had altered her appearance. However, Richard might notice something amiss because they were very close to each other and she was very emotional just now,

Tiffany was very confident in her disguise. She could easily fool everyone. However, she was not so confident when faced with Richard.

He was far more perceptive than she had imagined.

After Tiffany got up, she used the reflection of the floor–to–ceiling window to secretly check her face.

Fortunately, there were no abnormalities with her disguise.

Tiffany was relieved.

She was careless and didn’t notice Richard who remained motionless. He silently detected the familiar scent emanated from the Miracle Healer. His dark eyes twinkled with curiosity and pensiveness.

To avoid embarrassment, Tiffany quickly said, “Tm going to check on Evan.”

She went back to Evan’s room quickly. She did not dare to wander around again. She was afraid that with her heaven- defying bad luck, she would trigger every single trap.

Richard went downstairs

In the living room, June was sitting on the couch.

June was in her late thirties and had good posture. Even after sitting for a long time, her back was straight, and her posture did not look sloppy at all. Her elegant bearing far surpassed that of many rich ladies.

Noticing Richard, Sidney asked, “How did it go? Can Evan be saved?”

Richard replied, “Yeah”

Richard nodded and said to June, “The two of you can stay in this villa throughout the treatment period. Thank you for your service.

Medical treatments took time. A complicated case like Evan’s would especially be time–consuming.

June had no qualms with Tiffany staying here throughout the treatment period.

She said, “I will leave. I have other things to deal with. I’ll come and pick up the Miracle Healer in a few days.”

Richard replied, “Sure.”

Just like that, June had sold Tiffany to the devil before consulting with her.

June was very confident that Tillany was in good hands.

Tiffany only found out about this two hours later after she carefully removed all the silver needles and examined Evan’s condition.

June had agreed to Richard’s suggestion so readily because she did not know that Tiffany and Richard were acquainted.

Panicking, Tiffany thought, ‘What if Richard finds out about my identity?”

Tiffany refused the invitation to stay. She said, “It’s not very convenient for me to stay here. There are so many traps here. What if I accidentally trigger one again?”

Richard raised his eyebrows and assured her, saying, “All the traps have been turned off. You can move around without

Tiffany argued. “I still think it’s inconvenient. I didn’t bring anything with gne.

Richard replied, “I’ve already asked the servants to prepare everything for you.”

Tiffany was at a loss for words.

Her excuses were all rejected one by one, so she could only bite the bullet and stay at Royal Bay.

The room that the servants had arranged for her was right next to the master bedroom.

The walk–in closet inside the guest room was filled with all kinds of clothes and shoes.

These were all delivered at the last minute an hour ago.

They were all branded haute couture women’s clothes. In addition, they were all the latest models that had yet to be sold on the market. Tiffany randomly checked the price of one of the pieces and was shocked by it

Tiffany was puzzled.

She was only staying for a few days.

She wondered why the servants had prepared everything as though she was going to stay here for a long time.

She thought, As expected of a rich tycoon like Richard.

Her lunch was also prepared by a top chef. It was nutritious and delicious. Tiffany was not really into food, but she ate a lot because the food was very appetizing.

Throughout lunch, although she and Richard were at the same table, they were seated at the opposite ends of the large table. They adhered to the etiquette of not saying anything while eating and focused on their food.

After Tiffany finished eating, she furtively glanced at Richard while wiping her mouth with a napkin

Richard was sitting at the other end of the dining table. His posture was relaxed. He was handsome as usual. He exuded a mysterious and noble aura. The more Tiffany looked at him, the more she fell for his charm.

Perhaps sensing her mesmerized gaze, Richard suddenly looked up.

His eyes were unfathomable and emotionless. He looked cold.

There was even a hint of disgust in his gaze.

It was rumored that Richard, the person in charge of the Hampton family, was not into women. Tiffany did not believe the rumors before this.

This was because the Richard she knew would occasionally flirt with her. He would subvert the stereotypical impression she had for him again and again.

Now, Tiffany finally understood how the rumors came to be.

She wondered how Richard would react if he found out one day that the person he despised and the person he wanted to protect was the same girl.

She was amused by her own imagination. Nevertheless, on the surface, she was polite and appeared distant with Richard.

She said, Tm done eating. Take your time, Mr. Hampton.”

With that, she returned to the guest room.

Tiffany had no problem sleeping on an unfamiliar bed.

Fortunately, the mask on her face was as thin as a cicada’s wing. It was fine even if she did not take it off for a few days.

She threw herself onto the big bed in the guest room. She took a nap while hugging the pillow,

Downstairs, Richard received a call. He asked, “Did you find anything?”
