Chap 6: His words hurt me.

Days later, I became a maid in Steven's mansion. With the guidance of the butler and others, I gradually got used to my job. Since that time, Steven and I have done it many more times; those times are late at night. Steven's work seems very busy, so he usually comes home at one or two o'clock in the morning. Whenever he wanted to relieve his sexual desire, he took the initiative to go to my room. I have tried many times to find excuses to refuse Steven's request, but he coerced and forced me to do the thing that I hate the most. Even so, I still have to work to pay off my debt. I must try to get out of this place as soon as possible.

Lately, I find Steven very strange. He no longer said offensive words to me; instead, Steve treated me very gently. Steven even stood up for me when some maids quarreled with me. He's willing to fire the people who live there when they make a fuss with me. Sometimes action of Steven makes my heart flutter. It's like a dream. However, I just want a quiet life, that is all. I don't know; what is the purpose of Steven doing this? But I'm definitely not a good thing.

I told myself I would never love this man because my relationship with Steven is only creditor and debtor. I don't want my heart to be hurt anymore. I fear his tenderness because I fear that one day, I will be unable to resist Steven's charm and fall in love with this man.

"Diana, what are you doing?" A warm and seductive voice spoke from behind me. I didn't have to look back to know it was Steven.

I turned to look at the man with a sculptured face slowly approaching me. My heart sobbed again. However, I had to keep my distance from Steven because I didn't want to misunderstand the growing feelings in my heart.

"I'm just doing my job." I shrugged in response. "Today, it seems you are not as busy as usual."

"Right. I try to handle all the work at the corporation to spend the rest of my time with you." Steven said as he pulled me into his lap. His words stunned me because no one had ever said that to me. What is Steven trying to prove in front of me? I could clearly see the falsity in his ocean-deep eyes. I knew Steven was dangerous and not simple, but I couldn't figure out what he would do next to humiliate me.

I hurriedly pushed him away from me, standing back; I didn't want to fall into Steven's love quagmire. Every time Steven appeared, the atmosphere around me became tense and stuffy. I took a deep breath and flatly refused:

"I do not need it. If you want to, wait for me to finish the job." I said falteringly, shyly.

"No, I'll take you out to dinner today. Let's get together for dinner."

"Have dinner?" I asked again just to be sure. He gave me a charming smile when he saw my surprised expression and nodded in confirmation. There was insecurity and anxiety in my heart. I had an inauthentic feeling, so I hesitated: "Can we have dinner together? Is it necessary to do that? "

"Of course. On the way back, I also chose for you a dress that I think would suit you very well."

Steven said as he took my hand and led me to his room. An iridescent yellow dress hung in front of the mirror, making me dizzy. Although I don't know how much this dress is worth, it seems so expensive that I don't dare to wear it. To be more precise, it is not for me, and this dress is somewhat revealing, which I don't like this style of dress. Jeans and a winter jacket are still the most comfortable for me.

"I feel like I don't fit this dress." I reject Steven's good intentions.

He stepped closer to me, then wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my white neck lightly. His beautiful pale blue eyes were deeply drawn as if trying to attract my attention. I avoid Steven's eyes; I'm thrilled to see him treat me tenderly and delicately.

He smiled beautifully and spoke in a low, hoarse voice in my ear: "Diana, do you know how beautiful you are? I'm sure it'll look great when you put it on."

Then he took hold of the nape of my neck and kissed me madly on the lips, his words making me tremble: "Or do you not believe in my choice?"

"No…I didn't mean that." I hastily denied, "I don't think I fit this dress. I will spoil it. Can I wear another outfit?"

Steven sneered, his face suddenly changing to a scary one. "Are you looking down on me? Don't you remember what we did together every night? I know your 3-round measurement from your sex sessions."

Hearing Steven's words, I felt the corners of my eyes sting. 

Why did he purposely mention this? I'm more embarrassed than proud of this job. I jumped when his hand tightened around my waist.

"If you say so, I will wear it. Thank you, Mr. Jane." I reluctantly answered.

Steven was taken aback when I addressed him as Sir Jane, his face darkening for a few brief seconds. After that, he quickly regained his usual elegant appearance, stroked my cheek, and said, "Good job, baby. I'll wait for you under the car."

He kissed me on the forehead, which made my body hard as a rock. I can't tell what my feelings are right now. I felt my heart skip a beat as I stood before him.

After wearing this dress, I feel my breasts are too half open, making me a little uncomfortable. True to what Steven said, it fits really well and flatters my curves, but I feel like wearing this dress is too offensive, so I took a shawl to cover the lack of fabric.

Seeing me get into the car, Steven had a surprised look on his face. He stared at me, making me a little uncomfortable.

"Am I not dressed well?" I inquired, even though I knew I wasn't that bad.

"No, you are more beautiful than I imagined before," Steven said words like he was flirting with me. I knew those weren't his words, so I reluctantly gave him a big smile when I received Steven's compliments.

"I am glad you are pleased."

I sat silently in the car, looking out the window to see the New York streets at night lit up by electric lights. I wish my life were as bright and beautiful as the color of electric light. Although my life at Steven's mansion in the past was very peaceful, there I had no freedom there, caught up in unclear emotions, making me highly uncomfortable.

"Get out of the car!" Steven's voice brought me out of my thoughts. I slowly got out of the luxury car but stopped short when I found myself standing in front of a club for the elite. As far as I know, this place is not good, it looks healthy on the outside, but in reality, it is a lustful place to hang out.

I have starting to get an unlucky feeling out here. I gulped, trying to stay calm, and hesitantly asked Steven, "Did you say we were going to dinner? I think dinner should be at a restaurant, not this place."

Steven smirked coldly; he ignored my question and just walked in. My heart pounded in my chest in panic, I backed away to run away, but his two bodyguards had been behind me ever since.

"Please come inside with our boss." They looked at me with an emotionless faces. Then two bodyguards directly escorted me inside.

I was deafened by the music coming from inside the club. Steven was already at the elevator door waiting for me. Even though the air here was scorching, my body became trembling again; my legs seemed unable to move any further.

Steven suddenly grabbed my waist and pulled me into his lap like a couple. I pushed his hand away from my waist and shouted in anger: "Where do you want to take me, after all?"

" It's no big deal. Don' t get your knickers in a twist. It's only dinner with a few friends." Steven replied nonchalantly. I pushed his hand away from me, crouched in the elevator corner, angrily shouting: "Then why did you lie to me? Why should I follow you to these places?"

At this moment, the elevator door opened; Steven did not answer my question but directly grabbed my hand and pulled me to the front of a room; he leaned close to my ear, whispering: "Today, show up in front of my friends for good, the same way you do in bed with me."

I felt like he was pouring cold water on me. Did he want me here to let his friends play? That's why Steven chose me a dress like this. I've come to understand that that's why he's been so nice to me these past few days. It turns out that everything he did to me before was for his own benefit.

"Before I go in, can I ask you one thing?"

"Say!" Steven replied coldly. Seeing his face as cold as ice right now really resembles the Steven I know. I looked him straight in the eye and said in anger:

"I just wanted to ask you why you did this to me. I've always tried to do a good job at this disgusting job. But you're like a madman, always tormenting me like this? Because to you, I'm just a cheap item; if you need it, you can use it temporarily; otherwise, you can throw it away at any time. Am I right?"

He smirked coldly, "Oh, You're in love with me, aren't you? I just treated you like that, and you already fell? It's easy for you to fall in love with a man who only sees you as a tool to relieve his lust, and he's only flirted with you a little, and you've already swooped in. Remember, I will never fall in love with someone as easy as you." He looked at me and warned: "Don't exceed your limits."

Tears suddenly fell from my eyes, showing a cold smile: "Love? You don't deserve my Love."

I say to draw the line between him and me. Although Steven was the one who saved me from the dark, my life with him wasn't easy either. When I stay in Steven's mansion, I have to receive unfriendly looks from the housekeepers here. They hate and isolate me, which makes me feel suffocated. When I was here, the best thing that I received was that I no longer had to suffer the abuses of Killian and Kirk. That's all.

Maybe my words insulted his arrogance, so Steven's face turned dark. He squeezes my chin, his voice hissing through his teeth:

"Diana, do you think you're worth it? Do you think I will love you? I wouldn't be foolish enough to give my Love to a woman like you."

I reached out to wipe my tears and said coldly: "Don't worry, even if there is only one man in this world who is you, I will never choose you. Because I would never choose a trashy man like you."

"You…"

Steven says without words, but I can sense the anger burning inside him. I can feel his angry breath, but I don't care about it anymore. Because now I have nothing left to lose.
