Wilson House
"Audrey, don't hold off! Go and pack your things, your husband will come to pick you up tomorrow." The person speaking was Matilda, Audrey Wilson's stepmother. They were blocking the doorway to keep Audrey out.
Audrey glares angrily at the old woman in front of her and replies, "I'll say it for the last time, I'm not going to be that old bald fat man's fourth wife!"
Talia, who is beside her, sees her mother being chastised and mischievously gets up from the couch and rushes over to Audrey and slaps her without saying a word.
Slap-
Talia raises her head and yells, " Do you think you have a choice? It's all about paying off your father's debt!"
The fiery pain on her face causes Audrey to instantly burst into tears, but she still replies firmly without showing any weakness, "My father? You're not his daughter at this point, are you?!"
Audrey's questioning fails to make the mother and daughter in front of her feel any guilt, they just order Audrey as a matter of course, "Aren't you working as a whore for the rich man's son? You tell him to give us a hundred thousand dollars and you don't have to marry!"
The rich man's son they're talking about is Josh, Audrey's boyfriend. "Josh and I are a couple! Not the kind of relationship you're talking about!"
Talia said with a mocking smile, "Who cares?"
No one would believe that Audrey and Josh had been dating for three years, but they had never had sex, and the closest they had gotten was a kiss.
Audrey's mother had become a whore after her divorce. At the time Audrey followed her mother around and witnessed so many men how they roughed up her mother that she grew up afraid of sex.
Audrey was 16 when her mother died. She came to her father's side. But she also entered another hell. Only Josh, healed the wound inside her. He was like an angel, never forcing her to do anything she didn't want to do, including sex.
Audrey wouldn't allow anyone to denigrate Josh, and with that she yelled, "I told you he wasn't like that!"
Talia was going to continue to say something when Matilda stepped aside and stopped her, she turned around with a fake smile and said, "Yes, you are a couple. I assume he can give you that $100,000, I don't think he'd want you to marry someone else, would he?"
Audrey glanced up at her stepmother, thinking seriously about the question. As much as she was fighting it tooth and nail, she knew that this family never respected her ideas and she simply couldn't resist. Perhaps asking Josh for a loan was indeed the best way to go.
Matilda, seeing that Audrey is a bit shaken, smoothly picks up the cake she grabbed earlier and hands it to Audrey to remind her, "You're going to Josh for your birthday, right? That's just right then, you go ask him for it."
Audrey took the cake. Yes, it was her 21st birthday, and she had prepared an elaborate cake and wanted to spend it sweetly with Josh. But now, it was all getting complicated.
Matilda pulled Talia out of the way through the doorway and Audrey didn't hesitate to head out. Behind her came Matilda's voice, "You have to get the money by tomorrow morning!"

Josh did come from a wealthy family, so he never lived on campus, but had a fancy apartment off campus. He gave her the key to this apartment, but Audrey actually rarely just opened the door and went in, she always thought it was rude.
But today, she came early because she planned to dedicate her first night to him today.
Audrey had just opened the door before she even entered when she saw some men's and women's clothes scattered on the living room floor.
"Josh...oh Josh!" A loud scream came from the bedroom.
Of course Audrey knew what such screams and moans meant, not to mention the fact that it was her boyfriend that this woman was calling for. For a split second she froze in place.
Her eyes widened as she wondered if she should go up to check on him, the voices in the room got louder, "Oh fuck me...fuck me,Josh!"
This time she recognized the woman's voice, her friend Megan.
Audrey's breathing became rapid as she hung her head and forced herself to calm down. The house echoed with the moans of those two men and all sorts of lewd conversations that could not be described.
Scenes of her mother having sex with her john in her house flooded her brain like waves. Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes.
Pa...
That elaborate cake finally fell to the floor smashing into oblivion. Audrey crouched down holding her head in restrained agony.
But the sound of the cake hitting the floor was still heard by the two people having sex in the room, and soon Josh opened the door and came out. He didn't expect to see Audrey, who was holding her head and crying, and was a little startled for a moment.
"Audrey..." said he as he made to approach Audrey.
Audrey jerked her head up reaching out to stop the naked man in front of her, "Stay back!" , quickly she vomited with red eyes. Scenes like this made her sick to her stomach.
But Josh didn't give up and casually picked up a shirt and put it on trying to explain, "Audrey, I can explain."
At that moment Megan came out of the room and shouted, "Audrey! You're in no position to blame Josh, you're the one who can't satisfy him!"
Audrey looked at her best friend in front of her with disbelief as Megan continued, "You're in no position to blame me either! I'm doing you a favor!"
Audrey laughs mockingly and turns her head to look at Josh and asks him, "So you can't accept me at all, and all your promises were just lies to me?"
Josh just looks embarrassed and emphasizes, "It was just an accident, we can pretend it didn't happen-"
Snap-
Audrey didn't hesitate to pick up the cake on the floor and smash it at Josh.
" Listen, we're done."
[How's it going, did you get the money?]Audrey walked aimlessly down the street, unaware that it was late at night. The text message from her stepmother reminded her that now was not the time to be sad about assholes."'Eh-" she stopped and sat down on the curb. "I should've pretended I didn't see it, maybe I could've asked for a hundred thousand dollars."Audrey closed her eyes and her mind went blank. There was no way she could have asked for $100,000 and now it was either run away where no one could find her or... die...Just as her thoughts were getting more and more outrageous, a screaming female voice interrupted her, "Who are you? Don't you know this is my place?"Audrey looked up at the voice and a woman in revealing clothing appeared before her eyes. The woman had blonde hair and spat out strong red lips, looking down at her with an arrogant face.Since Audrey was sitting down, she could even see the thong panties under the woman's short skirt. Obviously, this was a whore wh
Lucien picks up his cell phone and walks to the other side of the room and picks up the call.“Hey,Dad.”He began as he picked up.“Where were you last night,Lucien?”Came a deeper voice at the end of the call.“Home.”Lucien drawled.“I sent someone to your house yesterday since you wouldn’t pick up your damn phone but you weren’t home.”“Oh…I was at the company,I was working late on something.That deal with…”“Stop lying.You weren’t at the company either.And don’t tell me you forgot about your blind date yesterday?”Lucien winced.Another one?“I just…something came up.”“This is the third time.The third time,Lucien.You keep standing up these ladies and making a fool of me”“Then stop arranging these blind dates.”“Are you going to stay single forever simply because Mia left you?!”His father thundered.”There are so many women in the world!”He just had to bring up Mia.Such a questioning left Lucien at a loss for an answer; he certainly knew what his father wanted."I can stop arrangin
“I wasn’t staring at you.”Audrey snapped.“Yeah,sure.”He drawled.“Just where are you taking me?”“You’ll know when we get there.”Audrey sighed,getting fed up with this unclear tiny favor.“And we’re here.”She looked out the window to see him pulling up at the front of a mall.He was taking her to a mall?!He could have just said so.Was there any need to act so mysterious?They got down from the car and Lucien handed his car mobilizer to a valet.Audrey gawked as they walked into the big mall.She wondered why he had brought her here.She saw about five attendants hurry up to them.They stood in front of Lucien and bowed,slightly.“Good morning,Mr Reynolds.”They greeted.“I need you to get her all dolled up.”He gestured at Audrey.”Make her look presentable to meet my father.”They nodded,curtly at Lucien and turned towards Audrey.“This way,ma’am.”“I’m meeting your father?”Audrey probed, surprised.“Go with them,we’ll talk about the details later.”Lucien replied,dismissively.Aweful
“He will fall for it.And if you want your money in full,better be a good actress.”Lucien warned, coldly.Audrey eyed him and shook her head.She just wanted this over with so she wouldn’t have to see his face again.They pulled up at a huge gate,where about four armed guards stood watch.One of the guards came up to Lucien’s car window and bowed at him.Then the gate was opened and they drove up a long driveway lined with perfectly maintained trees and flowers,The compound was out of this world and Audrey couldn’t help sticking her head through the window in awe.A castle.That was all she could think about as she took in this place.As the car got closer to the main house,she wondered how anyone could live here and not get lost.She was still in a daze as she got down from the car and Lucien led her in.The foyer had large marble columns that went all the way to the ceiling.A grand staircase,lined with a luxurious rich red carpet dominated the wall furthest from them.And the walls
Audrey walked and walked until her legs started to ache.How could that jerk leave her in the middle of nowhere?Cars hardly passed by and the few cars that passed didn’t stop for her.The last 24 hours had to be the most bizarre hours of her life.She slept with a man for money.She sold her virginity for 100,000 dollars.She wanted to cry as she recalled her mother’s lifestyle.After making so many promises not to turn out like her mom.She couldn’t believe she did something like this.She blinked back her tears.She wasn’t a slut.She wasn’t cheap.She had not turn out like her mother.Audrey desperately tried to console herself.She only did this to prevent her future from getting ruined,completely.She would be alright.She will move on and forget that ever happened.She would completely forget that she ever met a man like that asshole.After walking for quite some time,she finally got to a spot where seemed like a small marketplace.Her reflection from a store window caught her
Josh saunter off to Megan’s side and she pulled him down for a kiss.Audrey swallowed the thick lump in her throat.She had expected him to be remorseful,even if it was just a little bit.But instead,they were making out,fervently in a club as if they had been caged before.Technically,they had been trying to hide their relationship from Audrey and now that it’s been discovered,they were free as a bird to do whatever they wanted.Audrey blinked back her tears.It was still very hard to believe that this was the same man who had promised her the world.“Let’s get out of here.”She turned to leave but Becca stopped her.“They should be the one leaving.And besides,Tracy reserved this booth that they’re currently been stupid in!”With that,they moved up to Josh and Megan.“You two,go find somewhere else to be disgusting.”Tracy ordered.Megan stood up,furiously.“What right do you have to ask us to leave?”“I reserved this booth.”And then the girls began to argue except Audrey.She wanted
“What…what happened to him?!”Audrey panicked.“He had an accident.I just texted you the address of where we are.You need to hurry over now.”Dread filled Audrey.She did not want to believe what she had just been told by Matilda.Her father was dead?Dead?!No.The man might have stopped caring about her but he was still her father.And she could never forget the time in her life when he did care.She was a whirlwind of anxiety and panic as she headed out of the house,barely explaining anything to Becca and Tracy.She hailed down a taxi and headed for the hospital.No.She still wanted this to be a dream.Maybe by the time she gets to the hospital,he would have woken up.She really didn’t want to see his lifeless body.After what seemed like an eternity,she made it to the hospital and rushed in.She found Talia and Matilda at the hospital.“Where?How…where is he?”Audrey asked,shakily.“He was severely injured and he’s in surgery right now.”Audrey blinked.”You mean he’s not dead?”“No.
“Your father?Interesting.”Lucien drawled,darkly.With the look in his eyes,Audrey knew instantly that he wouldn’t let this go,easily.But she still had to try.“I…I don’t even know where to start apologizing.I know the accident must have been traumatic for you and I’m deeply sorry.”“Will your apology fix my car?”She swallowed recalling how expensive his car had looked.She wondered how much it would cost to fix it.Shakily,she asked.”How much…how much damage was made to your car?”“Quite a number.And it would cost nothing less than 400,000 dollars to fix it.”Audrey’s jaw dropped.”Just for fixing?Are you getting a new one?”He laughed.”Do I look like someone who would ride a car of 400,000 dollars?!”She gulped unable to comprehend how much rich people spend on stuff.She was feeling dizzy…she had sold her body to get 100,000.She literally had nothing more to sell.Will anyone buy her soul for 400,000 dollars?She felt so frustrated.“I…Can you give me some time?”She pleaded.”I’ll
