Nathan: “Is it your first time?”Still shaken by what he had just seen, Nathan shifted his gaze back to me.Nathan: “Yeah, so what? Do you have a problem with virgins?”He frowned and looked at me with an expression I couldn’t decipher.Nathan: “Go on, tell me what you want. Money?”After a long silence, he spoke again with the same indifference as before.Me: “So every woman who sleeps with you asks for money, is that it?”I felt insulted and glared at Nathan. Last night… I had only wanted to release everything I was feeling, and now I almost regretted doing something so stupid.Me: “Do I look like a prostitute to you? We just answered a need. I don’t need your money. And now, we go back to being strangers. Period.”That meant I didn’t want to say anything more to Nathan, and I quickly left the hotel. Once I arrived at Liliana’s place, she dragged me straight into my room.Liliana: “Irène, you didn’t come home last night. Do you know how worried I was? I called you but you didn’t ans

Me: “Darling, what are you doing here? Did you come to pick me up?”When he saw me, his usually handsome face immediately darkened. He was visibly furious. I knew I was putting him in an embarrassing position in front of his employees, but I didn’t have time to think about that. Perry and Courtney were right there, and I refused to be humiliated in front of them. So I used Nathan to save face.Nathan: “You? What are you doing here?”His voice was low, but I could clearly feel the anger in his tone.Me: “Please… just do me this one favor. After all, I gave you my virginity, the least you could do is play along.”I had no idea how Nathan would react. Would he reject me? Go along with it? I had no clue. His dark eyes were furious, unreadable. I couldn’t guess what he was thinking, but instinctively, I could feel the dangerous aura radiating from him.Just when I thought he would push me away, he suddenly wrapped an arm around my waist and looked into my eyes with a soft smile.Nathan: “A

I got up early, determined to prepare myself. I slipped into a professional outfit, knowing I had an important interview ahead. A touch of makeup was all I allowed, just enough to look polished. I worked in advertising design, and today, I was stepping into a chance to join a bigger agency.Standing in front of Milshire’s largest advertising agency, I felt a twinge of intimidation. The building loomed over me, far grander than anything I’d ever experienced. I had spent my career in small agencies; my results had always been excellent, but the rewards had been modest. To truly advance, I needed to be part of a larger company. That was why I was here. The only catch? Perry worked here. Initially, the thought of applying filled me with dread. But for my career, I forced myself to take the risk. I had to swallow the unpleasant reality: working in the same place as him.I also knew that Nathan had founded this company, though it was just a side venture for him. Running into him seemed almo

I smiled awkwardly, trying to hide my embarrassment. After all, I shouldn’t be proud of listening to something that didn’t concern me—it was really impolite.Nathan: “Is someone with you? Or did you see a ghost?”Nathan frowned and stepped closer to me. My heart was racing for no reason every time he took a step toward me.Nathan: “What are you doing here alone? Did you drink?”He kept getting closer. He glanced at the beer bottle next to me and frowned. He probably didn’t like women who drank.Me: “Well, I… I ended up here by accident. I really didn’t mean to overhear your conversation with Alana.”I thought Nathan would ask me if I’d heard him talking to Alana. Since it was me who had eavesdropped, I confessed quickly, looking guilty, before he could say anything.Nathan: “Since you heard… don’t you have anything to say?”He stepped forward. Since I was sitting on the ground and he was standing, I could only look up at his tall figure.Me: “Well… Alana is gorgeous… are you really br

I pouted in displeasure. Sometimes, he really could be harsh with his words.Did he not care about the women he had slept with before?But I could only murmur this in my heart. I didn’t dare speak honestly. I knew he was in a bad mood and that I’d be in trouble if I annoyed him. I had to keep quiet.After a long moment, I finally decided to take the 12-hour emergency pills. As I opened the package, Nathan handed me a fresh bottle of water.At least he knew I needed water.I took the bottle and swallowed the pills without hesitation.Nathan watched me, frowning, without saying a word. I couldn’t tell what he was thinking from those deep eyes.Me: “I’ve paid my debt. I think from now on, we’ll be strangers. Don’t ever bother me again.”After a short pause, I tidied up my outfit a little and spoke seriously, looking Nathan straight in the eyes.He frowned and stared silently at me. I had no idea what was going through his mind. His expression was always sly, giving me the impression he w
