A man's voice blasted through the phone, dripping with frustration: "We've been holed up in room 2302 all night, a dozen of us. Not a single woman showed up! You're sending us here to take nude pictures of some chick, but my boys wasted a whole night waiting. Sophia, you better not be playing games with us."Sophia's brow furrowed. "That woman didn't go to 2302? That doesn't make any sense..."Knowing that Olivia frequented the bar, Sophia had bribed the security beforehand. Once Olivia entered room 2302, the security would bring in a few guys to strip her down, and then Sophia would use those nude photos to pressure Emily into divorcing Nathan.Emily only had Olivia as a friend, and she couldn't afford to have those compromising photos leaked. So, she'd surely opt for a divorce with Nathan.But fate had a different plan in store. Just hours ago, Sophia received a call from the bar's security. They had spotted Emily entering the bar!It seemed like luck was on Sophia's side. She decid
Emily slammed the phone down, her screen almost shattered by her furious press.Emily was trembling with anger. That was her cousin, whom she treated like family, acting like a devil!"Miss, Miss?" The nurse on the other end kept urging, "Is your father going to have the surgery or not..."Beep beep beep... A message came in."Have you decided? ——Satan"Emily's hand pressed on a pocket, where there lay a bank card.Without hesitation, she took out the card and handed it to the nurse, "Where do I pay?"The nurse led her to pay the fee and complete the procedures. The door of the operating room closed again, the bright red "In Surgery" sign glaring.She withdrew three hundred thousand from Satan's card.Emily sighed bitterly. She had finally sold herself for a price."I agree with you."When these words were sent out, she felt lost.Soon, Satan replied."Okay, tonight, same place, Hilton Hotel, Room 2307, nine o'clock, I'll be waiting for you."Emily put her phone away, not wanting to l
"Sophia!" Emily gave Sophia a cold glance, her eyes carrying a deep warning. "The nurse said someone needs to go to the pharmacy to pick up medication. Would you mind doing it? I need to talk to Nathan." Sophia interjected, "Emily, why not just talk here? We're all family, there's nothing to hide, right Nathan?" Emily chuckled icily, "Sophia, I need to speak with your brother-in-law alone, please leave." Emily didn't want to create conflict with Sophia in front of their father, but Sophia was being too brazen today. Emily didn't care about herself, but if her father's heart condition worsened because of this, she wouldn't let Sophia off the hook! Before Sophia could say anything else, she glanced back at Nathan. Seeing no objection from him, she left the room in frustration to fetch the medication from the pharmacy on the first floor. Emily took a deep breath, trying not to let her father notice anything. "Nathan, could you step outside for a moment? I need to talk to you."
When Emily went to the pharmacy and got the prescription and payment receipt, she finally understood why Sophia hadn't picked up the medication and why Mr. Satan had given her money.Just the post-operative anti-rejection drugs cost over a hundred thousand, and that was just for a week's supply."Miss?" The staff at the payment counter saw her pause and called out, "Are you sure you want to buy this medicine?"Emily nodded, handing over her card. "Yes, of course."After spending the evening accompanying her father in the hospital room, it was already past eight o'clock when she took the subway back to the hotel.Looking up at the clock in the hotel lobby, it read eight fifty.She had ten minutes left until the time she had arranged to meet Mr. Satan.If the last time was her stumbling into the wrong room while drunk and ending up with Mr. Satan, then this time, it was her entering room 2307 voluntarily while completely sober.Her hand on the door handle began to tremble involuntarily.
A night of passionate lovemaking.When Emily woke up, Mr. Satan was nowhere to be found in the room.Everything from last night felt like a dream—confusing yet fiery. But the marks of their lovemaking on her body made it clear that it wasn't just a dream.Mr. Satan was real, and she had truly sold herself.Ten minutes later, Olivia arrived, handing her a box of pills. "Here are the contraceptives you asked me to bring. Do you need water?"Emily shook her head and swallowed the pill directly.Hospital tests had revealed her fallopian tubes were blocked, making pregnancy impossible, but she took precautions anyway.She and Mr. Satan had slept together twice, and it wasn't her safe period. To prevent any accidents, she had Olivia bring her contraceptives.Olivia, upon hearing this, furrowed her brows. "My goodness, is this Mr. Satan some kind of man with special fetishes?"Emily looked up at her and shook her head. "No, he's young, around Nathan's age."Olivia looked even more puzzled. "
"Emily, you've got to be careful, you're being deceived!"Emily responded coldly, "I have no money, no house, and I'm burdened with a sick father. What's there worth deceiving me for?"Nathan's tone carried a hint of warning, "You're a woman, and a pretty one at that. I'm a man, and I understand men best. Men's intentions towards women go beyond just money, you should understand what I mean.""Are you saying I'm being deceived for sex?""You know best in your heart, Emily. If you want to retaliate against me, fine, but don't play games with your body!""I'm not joking!" Emily didn't want to continue the argument with him anymore. "Nathan, even if I am being deceived, at least he paid for my father's surgery! Without him, my father might already be in the grave!"Nathan obviously hadn't considered this aspect. He furrowed his brows, "You sold yourself to earn money for your father's surgery? Emily, why didn't you come to me for help? Why go to someone else?""I did come to you!" Emily
With a click, the door swung open.In the darkness of the night, Emily was startled, her voice sharp, "Who's there?""It's me," Mr. Satan whispered. He pressed Emily beneath him, hands on either side of her body, trapping her gently. His voice softened, "It's late, and you're still not sleeping. Were you waiting for me?"Emily bit her lip, still not accustomed to being this close to him.Fortunately, the darkness concealed her unease, "No, I wasn't.""If you weren't waiting for me, why did you call me as soon as you received the text message?"Mr. Satan chuckled lightly, no longer pressing her.He stood up straight, opening the wardrobe, "Emily, come here."Emily extended a hand from under the blanket, placing it in his open palm, her voice small, "It's too late now, I'm really tired.""I just want you to help me pick out some clothes, what are you thinking?"Emily felt flustered, quickly defending herself, "Nothing, I'm not thinking anything."Mr. Satan didn't expose her, simply pick
There was always an aura around Mr. Satan that made her willingly submit.Emily felt like a kite right now, and Mr. Satan was the one holding the strings. He didn't restrict her flight; he just held onto the string, gently guiding her back when she veered off course, letting her soar freely.The nights spent with him were wild and intoxicating, something she had never experienced in her four years of marriage with Reed.But the atmosphere at the Reed family villa now was different.In the morning, Nathan had to go to the office. Sophia helped him fix his tie, cuddling in his arms, "Can't you skip work? We finally live together, can't you stay home with me?"A woman's coquetry was hard for any man to resist.Nathan embraced her, "I'm going to the office for important matters, not to see other women. What are you worried about?"Sophia's expression changed slightly.How could she not worry?After all, hadn't she successfully seduced Nathan herself? At work, she used her job as an excuse
