Disguise

Henry Truman woke up early in the morning.

He felt a soft touch in his right hand and subconsciously pinched it. The feeling of the touch made him feel satisfied.

When he turned, he saw a woman with a beautiful face lying next to him.

"Ah..."

Lydia Miller was startled awake by the pinch and realized she was naked.

She screamed and pushed Henry away.

She yanked the sheets with one hand while slamming him with a pillow with the other.

"You jerk! Pervert! What have you done to me?!"

"Well, it seems like we have done everything."

"Do you know no shame?" Lydia was embarrassed and angry.

"That’s not true. You were the one who took the initiative last night." Henry defended himself.

"Nonsense! It was—"

Lydia wanted to argue, but she couldn't finish her sentence as the previous night's events flashed through her mind.

She was drugged while attempting to collect a large amount of debt, and she only managed to escape when she found an opportunity to use the restroom.

Henry had just brought her to her hotel room and was ready to leave. It was she who took the initiative, gripping him and throwing herself at him.

"Waaah!" Lydia cried.

Henry felt a little awkward when he saw how upset she was.

He said, "I will take responsibility for this."

"You? Do you know who I am?" Lydia asked in anger.

"This should not be an issue. I am powerful, and many great people respect me." Henry boasted.

"Fuck off!"

Lydia was on the verge of losing her temper. That douchebag had robbed her of her virginity.

However, as the CEO of the Miller Group, she was an extremely strong-willed individual.

She calmed down after a brief outburst.

"Let's pretend nothing happened and not say a word about it. If you don't comply, I won't let you off so easily." Lydia warned him.

"You have my word," Henry responded.

After all, it was great not to be held accountable.

"Why are you still here then?" Lydia said coldly.

Henry felt frustrated.

'It's not like you're the only one who feels awkward. I've kept my virginity for over 20 years and haven't said anything.

'It's gone just like that. It's not fair to my fiancée.'

He had no intention of keeping the engagement anyway, but his grandfather insisted.

Henry was about to leave the hotel when a Rolls-Royce pulled over.

A fierce-looking 50-year-old man opened the door and got out of the car.

"Master of Golden Liberty, I am Jeffery Ford. This is a great honor." He knelt down with a respectful expression on his face.

Henry recalled the information about Jeffery Ford as he heard the name.

He was one of the Eighteen Generals, all remarkable figures, mainly business tycoons, and Jeffery Ford was one of them.

"Get up," Henry said and got into the car. Then, he asked, "You seem to be doing well in Hodbridge, right?"

"It is not worth mentioning such little achievements. All of these successes must be credited to the Golden Liberty."

Jeffery looked humble.

If no one mentioned it, no one would know he was the chairman of the Everising Chamber of Commerce.

He was not only the ruler of gray businesses in Hodbridge, but the Everising Chamber of Commerce controlled more than half of the local economy.

Many businesses wanted to join the chamber, but only limited slots were available.

"It's good you understand that. What do you want from me?" Henry asked casually.

"I was excited when I heard you came here. I've prepared a small gift for you."
