Chapter 31 Be Available Whenever I Call

Being called out was embarrassing. I mustered a sheepish smile, grabbed his phone, and entered my number."I'll arrange for your father to be transferred to the best hospital in Arrowdale for surgery tomorrow. You don’t have to worry," Jethro said.This promise chipped away at the imaginary cold wall I had built around him. Perhaps he had a softer side beneath that frosty exterior."Thank you," I whispered with my head bowed and my hands nervously intertwined.Despite Jethro's outrageous demands, he had given me the 30,000 I desperately needed to save my father, so I couldn't find fault with him. There was no such thing as a free lunch, after all.Soon, the car stopped outside Summer's home. Relief washed over me as I reached for the door, but Jethro held me back."Remember to be available whenever I call, and only call me when absolutely necessary," he instructed authoritatively.His dominance unnerved me, but I bit back my retort. "Understood, and rest assured. I won't bother

Chapter 32 Always Encountering Scumbags and Bitches

"You should stop letting work consume you. You're a young lady, There’s no need to push yourself so hard."My mom knew how seriously I took my job and didn't doubt my excuse, simply looking at me concernedly."I know, Mom. I'll take care of myself, don’t worry." I offered my mother a faint smile, feeling slightly guilty inside.The surgery was scheduled for the afternoon, so I spent the morning chatting with my dad. Seeing his graying hair made my heart ache.After I had talked with my dad for a while, my mom pulled me aside and questioned, "Rina, what really happened between you and Liam? Why was the wedding suddenly called off?"I had merely told them the wedding was called off without diving into any specifics. I didn't want to upset them."It's nothing. We just realized we weren't a good match and decided to cancel the wedding."Liam's name made my heart quiver, and I avoided looking at my mom. I had ended things with him, and I didn't want my parents to fret over that unwor

Chapter 33 Teaching the Shameless Woman a Lesson

"That slap was on behalf of Rina. She thought of you as her best friend, and you seduced her fiance in return. How does someone as cheap and shameless as you exist? And after all that, you parade around without a shred of guilt. Your skin is truly thicker than a brick wall.” Summer looked fearlessly at Julia, her tone icy cold.As her words echoed, the curious gazes of bystanders settled on Julia and Liam. Whispers rippled through the crowd. Already at a disadvantage, Julia grew even angrier at the murmuring around her and her face contorted in rage."I'll make you regret slapping me!" Pushed to the edge, her reactions bordered on manic.And all this while, Liam had remained silent. Noticing the surrounding onlookers, his frown deepened in irritation. Always one to care about his image, he clearly felt embarrassed to see his girlfriend acting so brazenly in public. There was no doubt he was displeased with her.Just as Julia was about to have another outburst, I shoved her away. Pa

Chapter 34 The Sight of You Two Makes Me Sick

"I don't want anything. I just wanted you to know that Liam is now mine. He's in love with me!" Julia declared with a triumphant smirk.Her words were meant to salt my wounds. Once upon a time, such words would’ve stung, but now, they barely registered."Whether he loves you or not doesn’t concern me. Though, I do have to thank you. It's because of you that I’ve seen Liam’s true colors. If it weren't for you, I would’ve unknowingly walked into a disaster, so thanks for saving me in the nick of time," I said to Julia, my voice dripping with false gratitude.Yeah, Julia caused me pain by seducing Liam, but from another perspective, she helped me see him for what he truly is—a despicable man unworthy of my lifetime commitment. Despite the emotional toll, I stood firm, knowing my decision was right.Julia became even more livid. Liam, too, frowned slightly, looking at me disappointedly as if I had betrayed him. I shot him a mocking, sarcastic smile. Despite his cheating and having a ch

Chapter 35 The Sudden Kiss

"What do you mean? When did I ever become involved with Liam again?"Being questioned by Jethro right off the bat reignited my already volatile mood. As if it wasn’t bad enough that I had been upset earlier, now this man was prying about that scumbag."Rina, you must clarify this. I won’t accept a tainted woman." Jethro’s voice grew colder. Although he wore sunglasses, I could feel the frosty stare he shot my way."Didn’t you look into my relationship with Liam? He’s my ex-boyfriend. We've broken up. You should know this. If you can't accept that I had a past relationship, then I don’t know what to do." My emotions were currently a chaotic mess. Faced with Jethro’s sudden interrogation, my patience wore thin, and my tone sounded rather harsh.Jethro’s face screwed up in anger. I could feel his irritation. But, why should he be the only one angry? I too was upset, and rightfully so. Why was he even questioning me about this?"Is that any way to talk to me?" Pulling off his sungla

Chapter 36 Being Taken Advantage Of

Jethro’s masterful kiss blew me away, and I uncontrollably responded to his advances. The car's interior was quiet but charged with an unmistakable air of lust.It took what felt like forever for him to release me. When I opened my eyes, I was lost in his vortex-like gaze. Up close, he radiated an impeccable charm that seemed to eclipse everything else. I had once placed Liam on a pedestal, but encountering Jethro made me see the true disparity between them.But no matter how outstanding Jethro was, he had little to do with me. Our relationship was nothing more than a secret fling, and there was no possibility of us officially getting together. Considering his elite background, I would never dream of entering his world."I can wait if you aren’t done staring." Jethro's deep, seductive voice reached my ears as his lips curled into a teasing smirk.Jolted back to reality, I became aware of my distraction. This was the second time today he had caught me staring at him."If there's no

Chapter 37 Slapping the Boss

Ricardo got out from behind his desk and approached me, his gaze lingering on my chest. I possess curves, and my snug business suit accentuated them. That might explain why he was always ogling me.I fumed internally, wishing I could slap him right across the face. But given that he was my superior, I held back. "Thank you for your kind words, sir. However, I’d prefer to rely on my own capabilities, not other...factors." My tone was even, hinting at my discomfort without being overly confrontational."Young ambition is commendable, but when a great opportunity presents itself, you should seize it, don’t you think?" Ricardo's greasy hand rested on my shoulder as he grinned.Disgusted, I swiftly moved away from his touch. My anger was fully ignited. "Mr. Ricardo, please conduct yourself properly. Actions like these could damage your standing if word gets out." My tone was icy, and my stare clearly conveyed my distaste.I hoped my firm stance would deter him, but it seemed I had misju

Chapter 38 Harassed by the Scumbag

“Really? Serena looks so diligent and innocent though. How could she do such a thing?""People these days will do anything to succeed. From the moment Serena got here, I sensed she wasn't genuine. She puts on this hardworking facade, but behind the scenes, she seduces an old man like Mr. Ricardo. She’ll stoop to any means, no matter how low.""Exactly. Mr. Ricardo is over forty and is so ugly. Serena must be really desperate."Their gossiping reached my ears. When have I ever seduced Ricardo? There was not one part of their story that was true. It was astonishing how people could concoct entire narratives from mere glimpses. It was Ricardo who tried to force himself on me, but they had painted me as the seductress in their twisted tale.I felt a strong urge to confront them right then to set the record straight, but I knew even if I explained things, they wouldn't believe me. Instead, they'd disdain me even more.Their hurtful words, though I tried to ignore them, brought me to te

Chapter 39 Confronting the Scumbag

I tried to call out to the driver, but he hurriedly zoomed away.I watched the cab disappear and turned to confront Liam. After the long wait for a ride, I now had to figure out another way home. Did he expect me to walk home at this hour?"What are you doing, Liam? Why did you send that cab away?" I glared at him, visibly frustrated."Let me drive you home, Rina. We can talk on the way." Instead of showing annoyance at my reprimand, he approached me with a calm demeanor."No need. Even if I have to walk home, I don’t want to ride with you. And like I said earlier, we have nothing to discuss.” I shot back, clearly still upset."You've changed, Rina. You used to be so gentle." Liam’s voice conveyed irritation and disbelief. My attitude clearly bothered him and he frowned at me."You said it yourself, 'used to.’ I reserve my gentleness for people I care about. Why should I extend you that courtesy since I no longer care for you?" I blurted out. He still expected kindness from me af

Chapter 40 Why Are You Running, Serena?

I gave Liam a smirk, deliberately using these words to provoke him. Liam had always been a proud person who thought highly of himself. Hearing my comparison of him to Jethro visibly irritated him, and his expression instantly soured.Men were creatures with strong pride, especially when measured against one another. Liam simply couldn’t compare to Jethro in appearance or wealth. After all, he was just a mid-level manager in one of Jethro’s vast arrays of companies. He was not even worthy of being compared to Jethro."Rina, I realize you're saying this out of anger. Fine, but do you even understand who Jethro is? Are you aware of how many women are around him? Do you think someone of his caliber would settle for someone like you? Don’t be naive," Liam said as if he was concerned about me.His facade was laughable. With an icy smile, I snapped back, "No matter what Jethro is like, he's better than you. He may have countless women around him, but I know he’d never go after my best frie
