In the middle of the night.Jane walked alone in her residential area. She went up to the second floor and noticed that the lights on the corridor were not working.She looked around and thought that only the lights on this floor were not working, so she carefully made her way upstairs. When she got to the third floor, the lights over there were not working as well.She took out her phone and used the light on her phone to brighten her path. She slowly made her way back home.Finally, she got to the entrance of her unit. Jane shivered. “Mr. Callen, why are you here?”“I’ve been waiting so long for you.”“...” She asked him why he was here and not how long he had been here.“What’s wrong?” Jane took the key in her hand, but she did not unlock the door in front of Callen. She still feeling defensive. Callen understood why she was behaving like that. There was a flash of excitement in his eyes.The feeling of dominating a defensive prey was amazing.“I’m hungry.”“Ah?”“I said,
When Jane’s cheque appeared in front of Alora again, she looked at Jane and put away the cheque. “You should know that Callen is not innocent.”“Yeah.”Alora lifted her eyebrows. “If you know, why did you accept his money?”Jane did not say anything.Alora did not talk about it again. No one knew more than her that Jane needed a huge amount of money.“There’s not much time left.” Alora reminded.“I still have to try.”“What do you want to try? Jane, just give up.”“No.”“Do you hate Mr. Stewart that much?” Actually, Alora wanted to say, ‘Mr. Stewart does not treat you that badly. When you were sick, he even carried you to the hospital. When you insisted on working while you were sick, he hired a private doctor to check up on you after you fainted. He didn’t allow me to tell you all these.’Alora did not know what had happened between Jane and Sean. She only witnessed those scenes, so in her opinion, she thought that there was no need for Jane to be so scared of Mr. Stewart.
Jane could not read his mind at all.Callen was looking at Jane while thinking if he should end this hunt.Jane loved money. He could only attack her weakness if she loved money. He needed to approach her again and again so that he could hunt her.In this hunting game, money was the bait. She was the prey.The fun part of hunting was watching the prey’s slow struggle.However, when this woman asked for money, Callen felt that it was time this game ended because it was too… low.“It’s late. I should go.” Callen patted his pants and bade her farewell.Jane pursed her lips together and said, “Let me walk you out.”“No need.” His voice was dull. One would feel awkward in a situation like this.He was being too obvious.“No, I still need to.”Jane closed the door and was ready to walk this man out. He had been here a few times, but she only ever walked him to the door of her dorm. This was the first time she walked him downstairs.“Miss Dunn.” Callen smiled suddenly. There was a
That hand lifted the hair on her forehead. Even if she was stupid, she knew what that man was trying to do.“Mr. Callen, do you not know how to respect other people’s wishes?”“People?” Callen’s thin lips moved. “Didn’t you say that you’re a b*tch who will do anything for money? Even if I’m not from the Hua kingdom, I still know the saying, ‘leading the life of a b*tch but still wants a monument put up for one's chastity’. Is that right?”Jane felt pain in her heart. Then, she started mocking herself. She was too sensitive. She was already a b*tch, so why was she still being pretentious?However, she still tightened her hands that were held behind her. The skin of her palm was sliced open by her nails, but she could not feel any pain at the moment.“Anywhere is fine, just not here.” She looked into his eyes stubbornly. Her eyes were red, and she did not blink. “No means no.”“What if I insist?”Jane lowered her gaze and did not say anything else. Callen felt that this woman was
Despite being furious, Jane knew one thing. Callen was right.She lowered her head, but Callen did not urge her. After a while, she lifted her head. “I have a request. You can’t force me with brute strength. If not, I won’t be able to avoid you. You should know this clearly, Mr. Callen.”“Okay.”Callen answered frankly. His brown eyes glinted. ‘Idiot, am I not imprisoning you if I don’t use brute strength on you?’He was much faster than her when it came to speed.Jane looked at Callen cu
The first time he saw her, she was just like a breathing corpse.…Whenever Jane saw that figure at the entrance of her dorm in the following days, she would feel an itch on her palms.She kept suffering defeat in her battles with him, and yet, she kept on fighting despite these continual setbacks.Slowly, her wound was not as sensitive as before. It was as if the wound was no longer the same as it was previously each time it was touched by the man’s lips.However, it still hurt.Jane co
“Jane, you’ve changed.”The expression on Jane’s face froze. “Alora…”“Jane, haven’t you noticed? Before this, your expression was always the same. I only ever saw a blank and lifeless expression on your face.” Alora looked at Jane. “Now, you feel more like a living, breathing human.”Jane opened her mouth. She wanted to say something.“Jane, who did this? Who caused you to be lively again? Is it Callen?” There was no blessing on Alora’s face. Her face was stern as she lectured Jane, “He harbors malicious intentions!”How could it be a good thing?She had witnessed Jane’s transformation for herself. However, the person who made this happen was someone with malicious intentions.Jane did not say anything.Alora let out an annoyed sigh. “Jane, promise me. Stop seeing him. I’ll arrange a new dorm for you to stay in.”“No!” Jane almost screamed. However, when she said that, she could see Alora’s disappointment. She fisted her hands tightly. “Alora, I don’t want to change dorms. I
Callen’s departure took away the last piece of soul Jane had after climbing up from hell.All the previous times when he had touched her wound, he was adding a little bit of himself into her.Callen was an expert in the love scene. He knew that Jane would change after he kept touching and stimulating her wound. Jane did not know that, but Callen knew that very well.The even scarier fact about Callen was that no matter how spicy or sour Jane’s noodles were, he would still devour all of it despite not being able to tolerate spice.He won this hunting game. He had won it thoroughly and did not leave Jane any mercy.…“Do you have the money?”The next day, Alora called Jane to her office.Jane shook her head.Alora frowned. “Did you not talk to him?”Jane shook her head again.Alora understood.“We won’t be able to understand the mindset of a rich person. Jane, are you regretting this now?” Obviously, Alora knew something. “Jane, I’ll tell you a piece of bad news. Mr. Stewart
