I blink three times in disbelief at what I hear.
This is not the first time someone has urged me to have s*x; in fact, if another woman said anything similar, I may have tossed her out the door.
Owing to her heavenly beauty, I assumed she was unique among the women I encountered. However, I suppose she is exactly like the others I've met who are solely interested and greedy in my money.
Another gold digger, I guess.
Something is battling for control of my mind. Someone warns me that she is that kind of lady, yet something in my head insists that she is not.
"Why?" I inquired of her as if my heart was expecting a different response and hoped that the woman would take back what she said.
"I had a boyfriend, and at first he was quite lovely to me. I assumed we would be content and would stay like that thus, I was mistaken." She bowed her head, and I could hear the small sobbing she had been concealing since earlier.
"All of a sudden, his behavior towards me became cold. If I hadn't gone to his house, I would have been ignorant that he had been cheating me for an extended period!"
"....So, what are you dramatizing here anyway? You should not cry to those kinds of people. It is preferable that you discover it sooner rather than that he continues to cheat on you. They don't deserve your tears." I shrugged.
Wait. What am I trying to emphasize? As if I were spewing a word into the void. What I said appeared to be meaningless.
I was no different from her because I then wanted to give up on myself after the person I loved so much betrayed me, so who am I to preach to her?
I'm ignorant for claiming they are unworthy of her tears.
Just as she raised her head, our eyes met.
I saw her puffy eyes and felt a tremendous thump in my chest. I was the first to avert my eyes from the two of us. I had to bite my lip so hard as her gorgeous face appeared in my mind. If you see her teary eyes, you just want to embrace her because she seems to have been mistreated.
"That is not the only problem I have!" She said through gritted teeth.
I covered my earlobe because her voice is now starting to raise.
"He even told me I don't have any s*x attraction!"
She staggered a few steps towards me and leaned. I had to hold out my hands to steady her. She raised her body a little. “What do you think…? Don't I have s****l attraction?”
Her face is so near to mine, the breath flowing out of her lips tickles my ear.
Sweat condensed on my neck, my hair rose, and I felt the inside of my trousers swell.
“...You do,” I felt like answering but I gently pushed her away.
I went over to the cupboard where Raymond had put an extra robe. I looked in the mirror and saw that her eyes were following me.
I empathize with her. But I didn’t mean to take advantage of her. Though everything about her made me feel restless.
I loosened my tie, trying to repress my throbbing heart and unspeakable desire.
“No. I won’t have s*x with you.”
“So, you agree that I’m not attractive?” I can already hear her voice trembling with concern. Is she really that desperate for s*x?
"A large portion of social media nowadays is dedicated to destroying my image andruining my reputation, how do I know and can be sure you're not one of them?" My face became expressionless as the tone of my voice soared.
I need to be vigilant of the press at the present because I have no idea what their next trick will be. She may possibly be a collaborator with them.
“What do you mean?!” I could hear the confusion in her voice.
I stepped away from the mirror and unlocked the cabinet. Through the mirror, I can see her gaze on me stubbornly, making my body hot all over.
Damn it.
"If you are indeed a media participant, you understand what I mean." “But I don’t know you at all.” She mumbled. "I only want to demonstrate to that Raven that I am capable of proving myself in bed! He deserved a painful revenge!”“No.” She doesn’t know who I am?
I felt a complicated feelings about what she said. Thanks to my dad, he obssession with fame successfully helped me get rid of both serious news and tabloids, and it made me a famous and faceless CEO.“I am not a minion of the media! You are the one I chose because you never hesitated to help me earlier." She paused, and then proceeded wit a silly grin. “Beside, you’re handsome and have a lot of biceps.”
“...” Her straight shot made me speechless. But that’s not bad.
“PleaseI swear, I won't look for you or disturb you after this one-night stand.” Her voice grew keen, “If you don’t trust me, I can offer you money! I can provide you with a reasonable price...”
"If you don't trust me, I'll offer you money! I will provide you with a reasonable price."
This drunk doesn’t know what she is saying.
I laughed with mixed anger. How on earth did she believe she could pay me? Is she unfamiliar with me? I could even buy her life.
She still wanted to say something, but I didn’t give the chance. I forced her into the bed, lifting up her chin.
"Don't regret it later," I whispered in a deep voice.
