She wasn’t scared. Just didn’t expect to see him in such a place.
Did he still remember her? Probably not.
She was so nervous she couldn’t speak, just cautiously watching him, praying inside that he wouldn’t recognize her.
He looked at her and smiled, “If you change your mind, the exit is right there, and you can leave anytime.”
He was giving her an out, and she could choose. That was what she thought at the time, only to find out later, he never intended to let her leave. Steven, he had many ways to make people fall into his arms.
She glanced back at the closed door. She could leave, but she didn’t. Once she left, there would be no more chances. Not just a chance to earn money, but also to see him again. As she hesitated, Steven spoke again, “If you want everything you dream of, you should know what to do.”
She knew. She understood clearly, if she stayed, what she would lose and what she would gain.
Since she had decided to stay, she was no longer conflicted and began negotiating, “If I stay, what can President Dixon offer me?”
Steven smiled and asked, “What do you want?”
Her father’s illness required 60.000 dollars. She originally wanted 60,000, but she held up fingers to signal a number.
Steven asked, “Fifty thousand?”
She shook her head, “Five hundred thousand.” When she agreed to go with that man, she should have understood that there were things she was no longer entitled to, and she could only negotiate.
Steven laughed, looking at her like he was evaluating a commodity, “Half a million? You think you’re worth that much?”
She replied, “I’m priceless.”
Steven laughed upon hearing that, letting out a soft chuckle. “Priceless? Do you have one more mouth than other women, or is there something special about you?”
Suppressing her inner turmoil, she slowly replied, “Whether I have something special, it’s not for me to say. President Dixon, you need to see for yourself.”
He moved closer to her, gently touching her damp hair and sniffed, “Go take a few more showers. I don’t like the smell of public pool disinfectant.”
She put on a brave face, and went to the bathroom in the room. After her shower, without any change of clothes, she had to put on the hotel’s bathrobe. Since she had already come this far, and she needed money, as well as the opportunity to become the protagonist, there was now a chance right in front of her.
Taking a deep breath, she walked towards him, her delicate arms wrapping around him from behind. At that moment, she could feel his body stiffen slightly, and then he pushed her onto the sofa.
He got straight to the point.
She never thought that the beautiful life she longed for would be realized in such a predicament. Her family wasn’t wealthy, but her parents never complained about each other. No matter how hard life was, they would face it together.
Therefore, from a young age, she always believed that she should find a man to love at the right age, and together they would lead a loving and closely bonded life.
