Trouble with the Devil のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

These students were truly vicious.  They did not care if their actions would severely injure her.  All they had in their mind was to enjoy her miserable state.  The scalding hot soup ran down her head, burning her scalp.  Any normal person would have fainted from the intense pain.  To make things more exciting, the students picked up tomatoes and water balloons, assaulting her. Throughout, Nora did not even let out a whimper.  On the exterior, she had put up a strong front, but internally she was at her breaking point. She wanted someone to come to her rescue, but it was a pity that the person who had promised to protect her till the end was the same who had caused her to be in this state. At that moment she did not know what hurt more, her body or her heart.  Finally, she broke down her limits and as her scalp began tingling in pain, hot tears st

Heavenly Pavillion  The villas in Primrose street were divided into specific classes. The best undoubtedly belonged to the owner of Heavenly Pavillion and the organizer of this year’s charity ball. The security here was extremely tight.  At the entrance, there were escorts, welcoming the guests.   Although it wasn’t her first time attending such a lavish event, Nora was still in awe looking at the arrangements. After looking around, Nora could identify most of the people.  They were people from the upper class.  Seeing that there were only a few people from their school, Nora relaxed. It was early fall, yet her palms were sweaty.  She was exceedingly nervous.  Her heart was pounding until she could hear it, and a bad feeling crept into her mind.  She turned towards Jessica nervously and suggested. “Maybe I should go back. I do

The party was coming to a close as the evening approached its climax. Several couples walked to the center of the hall, swaying on the dance floor. All the girls present, whether they were rich heiresses or socialites, all had their expectant gaze towards Liam, awaiting who he would choose as his dance partner. Except for one. Nora hadn’t left the event yet. Because she arrived with Jessica, she couldn’t leave by herself. Besides, Jessica had sneaked somewhere with Jackson, leaving Nora to fend for herself. As more and more people crowded on the dance floor, Nora stepped aside in a corner, trying to make her presence invisible. Suddenly, a figure walked towards her, step by step. Nora felt a sinking feeling invade her limbs as she tried to back away, however, the person didn’t give her any room to move. Clad in an all-black suit and turtleneck, Liam stood in front of her, just two

The night breeze was chilly, and it was pitch dark outside.  In the silent night, only the sound of night chippers could be heard. Nora tossed and turned around in her sleep, feeling uncomfortable. Apparently, she hadn’t taken a bath for two days.  Somehow, the bathroom had a leakage and couldn’t be used for some time. Because of this, Nora couldn’t take a bath and it was too risky for her to bathe in the guest washrooms, too. Although Liam suggested he would take care of it, Nora declined. She thought she can bear with it and didn’t want to risk anything least Liam put the blame on her. However, now, it was really becoming unbearable for her. She was itching all over her body and her skin turned rash. She sat up and looked at the man sleeping on the enormous bed. Watching him sleep peacefully, she didn’t have the heart to wake him up. These past few days

Another night, another trouble at the Heavenly Pavillion. Liam unlocked the door and entered the room. The entire bedroom was covered in darkness. Keeping the keys on the table, he switched on the lights and was shocked to see the mess in front of him. Pillows, covers, clothes, papers littered around the room. Was his room under theft? Liam walked around carefully in order to avoid tripping. He searched for the perpetrator, only to find her sprawled on the giant beanbag chair on the balcony. There were a few empty and unopened liquor bottles on her sides. Looking at the shadow, Nora looked over. Her eyes twinkle under the light. She let out a gasp. So handsome! She tilted her head to the side and asked flirtatiously. “Beauty, how much do you charge per night?” Liam stopped in his tracks, and his face darkened. Did she freaking take him for an escort?
