Just as Winnie and Jamie thought the topic had passed and had moved on to other conversation, Ben suddenly spoke up. “So, if she’s borrowing all this money, when exactly is she planning to pay it back?”

The room fell silent.

Winnie looked at her sister, caught in a difficult position. On one side was her sister, and on the other was the man who was her partner, the one she planned to spend her life with.

She tried to smooth things over. “My sister isn’t someone who would avoid repaying her debts. Once she’s able, she’ll definitely pay us back.”

Ben wasn’t willing to let it go. “And when will she be able to? No offense, but she’s already struggling to cover her child’s medical bills, and after the surgery, there’ll be ongoing care expenses. How exactly is she supposed to pay it back?”

This time, Winnie was at a loss for words. She had thought the money was no big deal and that helping her sister wouldn’t impact her and Jack’s life together. But she realized he might not see it tha

    But the reality was clear. Refusing wouldn’t change anything.“Instead of serving different men, you might as well just serve me,” Ben taunted. “I’ll pay you more than anyone else would. How about $10,000 a month? And if you please me, I’ll throw in bonuses.”His words were like needles, stabbing deeper into wounds that had already been torn open. Yet Ben showed no mercy. "Or do you think that since you borrowed this money from your sister, you can act like a shameless dog without consequence?”“No,” Jamie said firmly, “I’ll repay every penny. But if you want me as your mistress, I have one condition.”“Let’s hear it,” Ben replied, curious.Jamie took a deep breath. "I’ll be your mistress for three months. In those three months, you can do whatever you want, but once they’re over, you let me go. Let me and my sister live in peace, and we never cross paths again. Can you agree to that?”This way, Mrs. Lucas would be satisfied, and Winnie wouldn’t suffer further. And as for Ben, th

    Jamie stayed silent, tears streaming down her face. Once she had gathered all the money, Ben threw a piece of clothing at her. "Put it on, right here in front of me."She glanced at it and felt a surge of shame. There was hardly any fabric at all, mostly black lace, sheer and revealing. If this were a moment of intimacy, she might not have minded the outfit as much, but right now, it felt purely degrading.“Aren’t you going to change? Or do you need my help?” Ben’s gaze was unyielding, making her feel exposed. They had been physically close many times, but she couldn’t bring herself to change in front of him like this. Quietly, she asked, “Can I at least change in the other room?”“In your sister’s room, perhaps?” he replied sharply, his patience gone. Without waiting for her consent, he grabbed her shirt and ripped it apart. “I’ll say it again. Change. Now.”She had no choice but to comply. With the living room windows open, she could feel the cold air on her skin, amplifying he

    When Jamie finally came downstairs after getting ready, the meal was already served on the dining table, and Winnie had returned from her walk. She held a ladle, serving soup, and couldn’t help but laugh when she noticed the oddly cut carrot pieces. “Jack, what’s with these carrot shapes? This doesn’t look like your usual cooking skills.”“I didn’t cut them today,” Ben replied curtly.Since there were only three of them in the house, it was clear who the culprit was. Winnie turned to Jamie. “Jamie, I remember you being pretty good at cooking! What happened to these carrots?”“Guess I’m a little rusty. It’s been a while since I cooked,” Jamie mumbled, wishing she could disappear under the table.As she pulled out her chair, she moved too quickly and winced, nearly straining her back. Winnie quickly reached over to steady her. “Your back really needs to be checked out. It’s getting too serious. Why don’t I come with you to see the doctor tomorrow?”“No need. I’ll get it looked at

    “Send me a picture of what you’re wearing right now.”Just reading the message made Jamie’s skin crawl. Ben was checking up on her but Winnie was right beside her.“Hold on, I’ll take one once I’m back in my room.” Jamie clutched her phone and got up, intending to head upstairs.Winnie, not yet finished chatting, instinctively wanted to follow her. Meanwhile, Jamie’s phone kept buzzing non-stop.“Hey, who’s messaging you so much? Could it be… do I have a future brother-in-law in the picture?” Winnie’s eyes sparkled. She truly wished her sister would find someone to love and care for her. Jamie had taken on so much responsibility for so long.Jamie forced a small smile. “Who’d want someone like me right now?”She had nothing but only a sick son with expensive medical bills. What kind of man would marry her for that?“You never know! If someone truly loves you, he won’t care about your situation. Just look at me and Jack! He has a house and a car, and I came in with nothing. By

    He called suddenly. It had to be because of her. She hadn’t responded to his messages or picked up his calls, so now he was likely using Winnie to give her trouble.“I just wanted to check in on you. Where are you right now?” Ben’s tone was calm, but Jamie could tell he had guessed she was nearby. Every word he said now, Jamie could hear perfectly.Winnie, holding her phone with a radiant smile, replied happily, “Of course, I’m at home, resting. Jack, was work tiring today?”“Not too bad. And your sister?” Ben shifted the topic directly to Jamie.Winnie was a bit surprised he was asking about Jamie, but then reasoned it must be because of her. Jack cared for Winnie, and naturally, that extended to checking in on her sister.“She’s right here with me. We might go to the hospital tomorrow. I haven’t seen Charlie in a few days,” Winnie answered.“Do you know what your sister is wearing right now…” Ben’s tone slowed, drawing out each word, but Jamie, pale and breaking out in a cold

    Winnie felt a pang of guilt. How could she have doubted Ben's sincerity? “Alright, I’ll let you get back to work,” she said, a bit embarrassed. “We can talk more tonight when you get home.”Ben couldn’t have planned it better. He ended the call, waited in his car until Jamie’s video came through, more revealing than before. Satisfied, he finally tucked his phone away and stepped out of the car.Inside, Mrs. Lucas had prepared an impressive spread, with an empty seat to her left for Ben and to her right, his supposed future wife, Summer Larson.Summer glanced at her watch, clearly anxious, and asked Mrs. Lucas softly, “Mrs. Lucas, do you think Ben might not like me?”It was already late, and Ben still hadn’t arrived. Could he be intentionally avoiding her?Mrs. Lucas noticed Summer Lin glancing at her watch, and her smile softened. Unlike her stern demeanor with Jamie, she spoke to Summer with warmth. “Love can grow with time, dear. You have everything going for you; why wouldn’t h

    Mrs. Lucas was all too happy to oblige, quickly setting her utensils down. “That’s wonderful! You two have so much in common. I’ll head upstairs for my skincare routine.”As soon as she left, Summer slid her chair closer to Ben. “I don’t have time,” he stated bluntly.“No problem. Another time, maybe?” Summer replied, undeterred. “There’s a new cafe near your law firm. How about we grab a coffee there next week?” Summer didn’t retreat just because of one rejection. She wasn’t hoping for Ben to fall madly in love with her. She just needed him to agree to marriage and eventually have a child with her. That was enough.Ben’s expression darkened. “I don’t have time any day, Miss Larson. My mother’s intentions for this dinner are obvious, and I don’t want to lead you on. I’m just going to be upfront that I’m not interested.”Summer’s smile faltered briefly but recovered just as quickly. “Well, let’s not be so absolute. People can change their minds.”When she first learned that her

    Ben shook off Summer's hand, quickening his steps.“Ben, if you keep rejecting me so firmly, your mom’s just going to line up more dates for you, and others might not be as easygoing as I am. You’ll end up even more frustrated!” Summer called after him, hurrying to keep up. “Just go along with me for one act. It won’t hurt you and might actually save you some trouble. Why not give it a try?”Ben paused, his mind turning. With Jamie, he had felt like he had the world at his fingertips. No one else ever caught his eye. When she left, he had become obsessed with finding someone like her, and now that she was back, all he wanted was to channel his anger, to confront and torment her. He had no time, let alone interest, for any other woman, even as a pretense.“Just think of it as doing me a favor,” Summer continued, sensing his hesitation. “I really don’t want to be set up with some older, middle-aged guy. Do this for me, and I’ll owe you. Name it, and I’ll make it up to you.” She play

    The Stone family wasn’t just greedy. They were relentless, always pushing boundaries and expecting more.Karina sighed. “It’s not that I can’t stand up to them, but sometimes it feels unnecessary. There are things that just can’t be explained.”Wilfred didn’t press further. “Pack your things and come with me. I have to travel for a project negotiation that will help our hospital continue expanding.” He was determined to firmly establish himself in Birkham, not just for his professional ambitions but also because Nina was there. Wilfred wanted to protect her and mentor his students, ensuring they could safeguard Nina’s children in the future. “But didn’t we already promise a patient that we’d perform surgery?” Karina asked, a little hesitant. “I’ll arrange for someone else to handle it.” While Karina might have been the better choice for the surgery, Wilfred had other options, including pulling Caleb in at the last minute. “Alright,” Karina replied. Since Wilfred had

    Sera blocked Karina’s path, her expression cold and disdainful. “You think you can just use that money to brush me off? Do I look like someone who needs your measly cash?”She grabbed Karina’s arm tightly, her nails biting into her skin. “Let me make this clear. If you don’t do what I’ve asked, I’ll ruin you, Karina. Completely.”Karina’s fear was palpable, but the thought of endless torment and manipulation was even more terrifying. She met Sera’s fierce gaze with a calm, unyielding stare. “Do whatever you want. But let me remind you, the money you gave me? I’m willing to go down with you if it comes to that. My life might not be worth much, but you’ve worked so hard to get into Wilfred’s hospital. Are you really willing to throw that all away?”Sera faltered. She had worked incredibly hard to get where she was. Countless sleepless nights studying, memorizing every detail of her medical texts, and enduring the challenges of difficult patients had pushed her to the brink. She often

    Sera’s gaze was so sharp it felt like it could pierce through Karina. Karina hadn’t expected her momentary greed to create such a mess. If she couldn’t stay a doctor, she would have no source of income, and her life would spiral further out of control. “Please, don’t do this. Tell me what you want, and I’ll keep helping you. Maybe… I could spike his drink for you again, or set up another opportunity,” Karina said, grabbing Sera’s hand out of desperation. Sera clearly wasn’t short on money. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to give Karina such a large sum back then.All she wanted now was to secure her position at the hospital.Sera pulled her hand away, a mocking smile on her face. “Set up another opportunity? Do you think Wilfred would fall for it twice? Do you take him for an idiot, Dr. Norman?” Wilfred wasn’t an idiot, and ordinary drugs didn’t seem to affect him much.Karina felt utterly helpless. One wrong step had led to another, and now she had no idea how to

    “Starting today, you’ll officially resume your position as my assistant. I trust you’ll adapt quickly,” Wilfred said firmly. Karina’s eyes lit up with a hint of surprise. “Dr. Wilfred, really? I’ll do my best to fulfill the responsibilities of the assistant role.” Wilfred stood up and walked over to her, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. “Familiarize yourself with the current work schedule and the relevant materials. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask me. I have confidence in you.” Karina hesitated, a trace of worry crossing her face. “But… I’m not sure this is a good idea.” Wilfred already had an assistant. If Karina agreed to take the position, wouldn’t that make her a target for trouble from his former assistant? And then there were all the people at the hospital who were infatuated with Wilfred. Lately, she had already been spending more time with him, drawing enough attention as it was. If she officially became his assistant, she’d surely

    Back home, the first thing Karina did was take a shower, cranking the water temperature to the highest setting as if that was the only way to wash away the grim memories of the night.She scrubbed her arms fiercely, the spots where those repulsive men had touched her. Even through her clothes, the thought made her feel sick. Again and again, she lathered herself with soap until her skin turned slightly red, but no matter how hard she tried, the discomfort in her heart lingered.After her shower, Karina changed into clean pajamas and sat on the edge of her bed, unable to sleep. Her gaze fell on her phone. She hesitated for a moment before sending a text to Wilfred.“Dr. Wilfred, I’m truly grateful for your help tonight. I’ll never forget it.”After sending the message, she set her phone down, hugged her knees, and curled up on the bed. Returning to the hospital had always been her dream, but now she worried whether she could truly meet expectations and not let Wilfred down.As she

    The men exchanged uneasy glances, hesitating for a moment before reluctantly mumbling, “Sorry,” to Karina. Wilfred watched their retreating figures with thinly veiled disgust. Turning to Karina, he asked gently, “Are you okay?” Karina shook her head lightly, brushing it off. “I’m fine, Dr. Wilfred. Thank you.” Wilfred let out a soft sigh. “Come with me. You shouldn’t be working here.” Karina nodded, following him out of the private room. Wilfred guided Karina through the bustling bar. The pounding music and chaotic chatter seemed distant and muted, fading into the background as they moved. They made their way to the parking lot, where Wilfred opened the car door, carefully helping Karina into the passenger seat before getting in himself and starting the engine. As Karina buckled her seatbelt, she turned to Wilfred with a look of curiosity. “Dr. Wilfred, didn’t you say you had things to handle at the hospital? How did you get here so quickly?” Wilfred kept his ey

    When Karina stepped into the room, one of the men, his gaze hazy from drink, chuckled and said, “Well, so this is the beauty they sent over?”Karina forced herself to stay calm and replied politely, “Good evening, gentlemen. Here’s the drinks you ordered.” She began placing the drinks on the table one by one, hoping to finish quickly. Before she could finish, another man grabbed her wrist and yanked her toward him. “Come, have a few drinks with us, sweetheart.”Karina’s heart raced as she pulled her hand away with force. “Sir, I’m just here to deliver your drinks. I don’t entertain guests.”The men burst into laughter. “What bar do you think you’re in? There’s no such thing as not entertaining here. Don’t play coy, sweetheart. Sit with us, and you’ll be rewarded handsomely.”Fear surged through Karina as she instinctively stepped back, trying to maintain some distance. “I’m really just here for work,” she said, her voice trembling. “Please respect me!”But the men, emboldened

    The woman leaned closer to Karina, lowering her voice. “You ruined my fun. The manager and I were having a great time, and you interrupted us. You need to make it up to me.”Karina’s frustration flared. “I didn’t mean to interrupt. The door wasn’t fully closed, and I was only there to talk about resigning.”But the woman wasn’t about to let it go. “I don’t care. You need to make it up to me. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee your night will go smoothly or that you’ll get to leave this job without issues.”Anger surged through Karina. “You’re being unreasonable! I didn’t do anything wrong!”The woman sneered. “In this bar, what I say goes. If you don’t cooperate, I have plenty of ways to make sure you can’t stay.”Karina knew arguing with her in this chaotic environment would only make things worse. But the idea of being bullied like this made her seethe. Taking a deep breath, she tried to stay calm. “What do you want me to do?”The woman’s eyes gleamed with triumph. “It’s simple. Ha

    A strikingly glamorous woman sat perched on the manager’s lap, the two locked in a tight embrace, passionately kissing. The scene was nothing short of intimate, their connection palpable.Karina stood awkwardly at the door, caught between stepping in and retreating. She coughed lightly, trying to get their attention.Hearing the sound, the manager gently pushed the woman aside and turned toward the door. His expression showed no embarrassment; instead, he appeared slightly annoyed. “Karina, why didn’t you knock before coming in?”Karina forced a smile, her discomfort evident. “The door wasn’t fully closed. I didn’t mean to interrupt. I’m here to talk about resigning.”The manager adjusted his clothes, gesturing for the woman to sit aside. He raised his brows slightly. “Resign? Why the sudden decision to quit?”Karina bit her lip nervously. “It’s for personal reasons. I really can’t continue working here.”The manager leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms over his chest. A f
