Everything came with a price and this time, it was a hefty price-her body. Danny rescued her from the gangsters who were tormenting her. That was not all; before leaving, he handed her a cheque for a hundred thousand dollars to help her pay off her father's debts. Watching her leave, his smile widened and his heart overflowed with joy. He leaned back against the pillows and shook his head. She was under the impression that once their 'deal' was done, so was their story and she would never see him again. Little did she know, he had already made up his mind to get her... Will Danny succeed in wooing the girl who had captured his heart? Or will he lose her forever once their deal was over?
At the foot of the LJ Mountain and in front of the HB Lake stood Ye's Manor. Surrounded by nature's greatest gifts, the manor stood. It was brightly lit under the inky skies.
A woman stood quietly in front of the bed. The temptation of drawing him in was like an ice pick stabbing right through Danny Ye's chest. His chest rumbled at the thought.
She stiffened slightly,
turning around to look at the man standing behind her.
'It was her!
The woman!'
Her physical characters were much too similar to Sabella Ye's.
When Danny Ye met her back in the elevator, he couldn't help but feel drawn to her – like moths to a flame.
Now, she was here to repay her debts.
Not only did Danny Ye drive away the gangsters who bullied Amanda Gu, but he also left her a hundred thousand check to help her father pay off his debts.
Of course, everything came with a price. The price, this time, was none other than her body.
Now that he had appeared, Amanda Gu thought that there was no need to waste another minute. She quietly closed her eyes and prepared herself.
"Open your eyes. Don't you have anything to say to me?"
He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. In fact, a part of him was expecting her to beg him to let her go. 'How could such an arrogant girl be so willing to give out her body?' he thought.
Amanda Gu opened her eyes. They were as cold as ice.
"I'm not here to talk," she responded snidely.
Without another word, Amanda Gu walked forward and wrapped her arms around Danny Ye's neck.
'Is it her first time?' he thought.
The stiffness of her body proved to be such. She gritted her teeth once she felt something hard pressing against her stomach.
"Remember this pain," he whispered in her ear. She shivered. "You're my woman."
Hearing his domineering words, she finally looked up into his eyes. Upon seeing her open gaze, Danny Ye pushed himself inside her. She gasped as he pumped again and again. During this time, she couldn't help but hate him deep in her heart.
She knew that each long and hard stroke was done on purpose.
The pain was almost unbearable for her, but she gritted her teeth and persisted. She wanted to think of happy thoughts. However, from the way he was acting, he wasn't even giving her time to think at all.
His fingers ran down her skin, settling on her breasts as he pushed deeper into her.
When he was finally done, she took a deep breath. The curtains were still swaying with the wind as if nothing had happened.
Immediately, Amanda Gu got out of bed and went straight to the window. She wrapped her coat around her body as she stared at the night.
"You're leaving? Don't you feel any pain?"
When she looked back, Danny Ye was already sitting up. His eyes glinted with an unknown emotion as he smirked at her.
Amanda Gu quickly put on her shoes and made her way towards the door. She was about to grab the handle when he asked her to stop.
She turned around. Disdain danced in her eyes as she stared at the wretched man. Without another thought, she said,
"If you want to see me again, then I guess you have to wait for a second chance to save me."
Seeing her disappear, his smile widened. Danny Ye leaned back against the pillows, shaking his head.
"You're mine now," he whispered.
...
Ever since her father learned that Amanda Gu had been chased by gangsters due to the money he owed them, he decided to quit gambling and take care of his family.
Amanda Gu was in a much better mood after that. Seeing that her father was returning to their home sober and calm, she was happier than anything else. Even her mother was proud for the improvement he'd made.
Her father was the one holding the entire family together. When he finally was able to pull himself together, the mother-and-daughter duo cheered in joy.
However, things didn't end in happy-ever-after. Three months later, when Bill Gu, Amanda's father, came back from work, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. After continued frustrations, he decided to go to the hospital for a check-up.
It was then when they discovered that he had gastric cancer! Right now, he was at stage three!
The news was like a thunderbolt to Amanda's family.
Her mother couldn't even bear the result. Upon finding out, she burst into tears and hid herself in her room for a few hours.
Amanda was at work when the results came back. After receiving a gut-wrenching call from the hospital, her heart thumped against her chest.
Once again, her happy family was in the process of falling apart.
Billy Gu would only have half a year to live if he didn't receive any treatment. However, according to the estimated fees, it would cost them at least 300,000 to 500,000.
For an ordinary family like Amanda, the price was more than what she could afford.
After a month of insisting, she was able to borrow a hundred thousand from all her relatives combined. With her mother's deposit of forty thousands, they still needed much more money left for the treatment.
Because of her father's predicament, Amanda couldn't even sleep at night. She lived in torment every day,
as she wondered who she would borrow from next.
She even lost a large amount of weight due to her stress.
Being the only daughter, even if everything went to shit, she still needed to pick herself up.
In the ward, she would plaster a smile on her face as she encouraged her father in fighting the cancer. However, once she would walk out the door, she would burst into tears and sob her heart out.
That day, Amanda walked out of the hospital. As she passed by the front gates, a woman handed her a hospital leaflet. She took it politely.
Turning over the pages, she saw that the story was about a man who had taken an advance of ten times his salary from the company in order to save his brother. The content was touching and piteous that it couldn't help but make people feel sorry for the pair.
That was when she got a thought. What if she got an advance herself?
With her current annual salary being fifty thousand. If she got an advance for five years, she might be able to pay all her father's operation fees. It would be better than borrowing some more money.
With this idea, Amanda felt light on her feet. As long as she'd do this, the hope of her father's treatments going well was hopeful.
However, as she sat in her office, she stirred and hesitated at the thought of asking such a thing.
Amanda was already rehearsing on how she would ask Danny for cash. However, every time she thought of his indifferent face, she felt even more restless.
Not every boss was as kind-hearted as the boss in the story!
Moreover, she knew for a fact that Danny wasn't kind.
She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. Even through her uneasiness, she plucked up the little courage she had left and grabbed her phone.
Without another thought, Amanda carefully dialed his number.
