245. WHY AM I CRYING?
Last Updated:
2023-05-06 08:00:46Elena didn't answer her question with a yes or no, and the girl simply said that she would take care of the matter, and that was why she didn't have to worry about it.
Later Vivian also told the girl the truth regarding how Steen knew about her pretense since the beginning, and the long-haired girl was shocked by it.["What? Steen knew that you weren't me from the start, but he purposely acted as if he was being fooled by you? Just now you also said that he even pretended to be someone else, and he put you in a difficult situation by doing so, right?” Surprised, Elena immediately asked the question."That's right," Vivian replied. “Steen was my customer when I was still working at Ladder to Paradise, but I only served him once. At that time, he asked me to wear a blindfold, and that's why I couldn't see his face. I couldn't see his face, but he could see mine, and that's why he knew right away that I was pretending to be you when we first met.”Related chapters

KNOCK KNOCK. "Are you inside, Elen?" Vivian hurriedly wiped the tears from her cheeks when she heard the question that came after the knocking sound. Looking back at the bedroom door, she knew that the sound had come from the door. Even if the door was still closed, she could recognize the voice that had just asked the question, and that was why she carefully brought her foot to the door before opening it. As expected, Kate was standing at the door. The voice did belong to the blonde woman. When Vivian had just returned to the mansion, she didn't see the woman downstairs, and that was why she assumed she wasn't home. But maybe she was wrong because the blonde woman was standing in front of her now. "I was in the backyard earlier, and that's why I didn't know when you returned home, Elen," Kate said as if she could read Vivian's mind, and before Vivian could reply, the woman suddenly frowned at the younger girl before asking, “Are you

It felt like something was pressing against her lungs, and that was why Vivian couldn't even breathe when she heard Kate's question. The last question the blonde woman threw managed to freeze her body, and that was why Vivian couldn't even blink when she heard that question. Kate suddenly talked about love. She was an adult woman with a husband, and she was supposed to talk about her husband when the word "love" was mentioned. However, it was obvious that she wasn't talking about Stefan Dahl at the moment. Instead, she was talking about Steen Dahl who was none other than her stepson. “Why… why are you asking such a question, Mrs. Dahl? Do you want Steen to... love you?" Vivian finally managed to utter a reply despite the hint of disbelief in her voice. Of course, she couldn't believe what her brain was deducing from Kate's words. She knew that Kate was much younger than Stefan and that she was only two years older than Steen. Of course, it was

Someone like Steen talking about love? It was ridiculous and unbelievable, and that was why Vivian laughed because she couldn't believe what she had just heard. “I know I was just a prostitute in the past, and you must know that too, but you should know that I wouldn't believe such cheap lies, Mr. Steen Dahl. You must still be dissatisfied with the way you've been playing with me all this time, right? That's why you want to keep toying with my sanity, right?" Full of sarcasm, Vivian replied to Steen's confession. When she heard Steen's confession, she didn't feel warm in her heart at all. If the man had said such words yesterday, she probably would have believed it since she still didn't know the game Steen played at that time. She probably would have been on cloud nine if she had heard that confession yesterday, but things were different now as she only felt more disgust towards the man after finding out that he was just playing her. "You won

"You have such a fetish?" Surprised, Vivian couldn't contain her curiosity and immediately asked another question. "Yes," Steen replied calmly. “I don't want to get attached to any girl, and that's why I only play with girls I don't know and don't know me either. I also don't want them to know my true identity, and that's why I asked them to cover their eyes with blindfolds. By doing that, they won't try to get close to me for my money, and they won't disturb my peace either.” Vivian did not respond this time. Actually, she wasn't surprised by the fact that Steen liked playing with girls. Even after the two of them got married, Steen still played with some girls out there, but she didn't expect that the man would have such criteria when he played with girls. Before today, she didn't think that Steen was her mysterious customer, and that was why she didn't know that Steen had a fetish for having sex with strangers who covered their eyes with blindfolds.

"You are not the same as that bitch and you are not the same as anyone." That was the answer Vivian received from Steen, and she was quite taken aback by it. “I still remember when you came to me for the first time when I pretended to be your mysterious customer. Back then, you even thought about our marriage, and I knew you weren't the same as any other woman on this planet," Steen continued when Vivian didn't reply. But this time the brown-haired girl didn't remain silent, and she chuckled darkly in response to the man's statement. “I didn't really think about our marriage at that time. I was just afraid my husband would kill me if he found out I dare to play with another man, and that's why I didn't want to serve you when you pretended to be my customer. You think too highly of me, Mr. Steen Dahl,” she replied. Hearing Vivian's answer, Steen didn't look happy at all, and he frowned at the girl again and again. "Why do you keep pretending to

Maybe that's not fair to Steen. Vivian wasn't even sure whether he was being sincere with her or not, but she dared to use the word "care" to threaten the man so he would let her go peacefully. Instead of exposing herself, Vivian asked the man to let her go without revealing her true identity and also reporting her crime to the police. Only because of her selfishness, she did do all that, and in the end, she managed to leave Dahl's mansion safely. Steen didn't even say anything when she said she would leave him. She had also said that the real Elena would be coming to the mansion tomorrow to fill the role she left off, but the man still didn't say anything. At that time, Vivian couldn't even read what was on Steen's mind, but she left him anyway. She only had a bag of clothes with her, and she didn't even tell Stefan or Kate that she was leaving even if she originally planned to tell them before Elena would be coming to replace her in a few days.

The room was enveloped by silence even though there were two people in the room. One was sitting, while the other was standing. The person who looked really bothered by many things was the one sitting on the sofa, but the person standing in front of that person didn't look relaxed either. Both of them had wrinkles on their foreheads, and it just showed how both of them were thinking about things right now. "Has there been any progress with the cell phone?" The person sitting on the sofa finally broke the silence in the room, but he didn't bother to look at the person standing in front of him with only the coffee table as a divider. Steen's deep voice finally broke the silence in the bedroom, and the person who caught the voice was Marlon Robs. The assistant was summoned by the boss to the mansion, even the boss asked him to come directly to his bedroom. Of course, the two of them would only have serious conversations even if they were in the bedroom tog

"What box are you talking about, Tommy?" The woman looked very curious as she asked the younger man. It seemed the three members of the Vester family were having an important meeting in their living room right now. Tommy had just come home from work, and the first thing he reported to his mother was how he noticed Vivian looking suspicious when she brought a wooden box into Steen's office today. “That is a wooden box that looks like a treasure chest,” replied the curly man. “I watched the bitch take the box into Steen's office, and after she left his office, she no longer had the box in her hands. I tried questioning her, but she looked disheveled and refused to answer me. She said she would tell us everything, but today is not the time. Oh! And she even blackmailed me by saying that she would reveal our lies in front of the Dahls if I kept questioning her about the box!" Tommy had only reported the truth to his parents, and he could see how confused th

A name. It was not just a group of letters used to address someone so they would turn to the caller and not ignore the caller. A name had a deeper meaning than that. A name was used to identify a person, used to distinguish someone from other individuals. A name would always stick with a person from the time they were born until the day they last breathed, and even at their final resting place, their name would also be written or engraved to let everyone know that the body buried underground belonged to the owner of the name. A name was indeed an important part of one's life, and that was why one would not feel happy if someone called them by the wrong name. Perhaps that was also the reason why Vivian had returned to wearing a wedding dress today. It was still the same wedding dress she wore months ago when she officially became Steen's wife, but because she was using someone else's name then, she and Steen decided to have another wedding ceremony to announce to everyone that it was

Their next stop was the penthouse at the Golden Roof Apartments, and it might also be their last stop. Only three people entered the penthouse after Elena was sent to her family's residence. After Lily and her family were arrested by the police, the house was empty, and that's why Elena lived there temporarily. Yes, only temporarily because Elena planned to move after finding a suitable place to live. Vivian had actually invited her to move in with her and Sarah in the small house, but Elena rejected the idea, saying that she didn't want to disturb the two of them and that Sarah might be uncomfortable if she joined them to live in the cramped house. Vivian said that Sarah wouldn't feel that way because that woman also wanted to meet Elena and wanted to live with her too, but Elena still resisted the idea. In the end, Vivian only said that she would try to find a bigger house, and if that could happen, the three of them might be able to move in together.

Someone was standing in the middle of the mansion's stairs. With teary eyes, he looked at the people standing in the living room one by one. His eyes were not only filled with tears, but the two of them were also filled with fear and confusion. He looked lost and lonely even if he wasn't alone in the big building. Maybe the adults in the living room kept talking about Stanley before, but they probably forgot that the kid was also in the mansion the whole time, and they also weren't aware of the possibility that the innocent boy had heard everything from the second floor. But maybe Steen was aware of the possibility, but he simply didn't care at all. That was why he looked away from the boy before saying, "Let's go." Both words were aimed at Vivian and Elena, like how he had suggested the three of them leave the mansion immediately. But neither Vivian nor Elena moved from their positions even after hearing the order, and they both focused their

Steen somehow could not directly answer his father's question this time. He was still grinding his teeth to suppress his anger, but no words could come out of his mouth at this moment. Recalling the disgusting memory, he remembered how he did not find any used condoms in the hotel room, and it was easy to tell that he had done it without any protection the night before. He wasn't even sure if it was because he couldn't think straight when he did it or maybe it was Kate's intention, but he was sure there weren't any used condoms in the hotel room at the time. He wasn't stupid, and that was why he could see the possibility of her being pregnant after they had a such activity that night, and it was also the reason why he hated that kid called Stanley so much. Even if he didn't try to find evidence that Stanley was indeed his son, he could see the similarities the boy had with him, and it had the power to terrify him. Because of that, he had alway
I'm a Prostitute, Not a Substitute 300. THE DISGUSTING MEMORY
Kate had been dragged from the mansion by the police, and even the man named Peter had also been caught by the police. Hence, only four people were left in the living room after Marlon also left the place. There were only Steen, Stefan, Vivian, and Elena in the living room. Everyone still ignored the presence of plush sofas in the living room as they preferred to remain standing rather than sitting comfortably. They all even continued to stand like statues. Even Steen who previously looked the calmest of them, now looked shaken after hearing what Kate proudly said before being dragged away by the police. "I always knew that the child was not mine," Stefan muttered breaking the tense silence in the living room. “I always knew about it, but I didn't expect the child to be yours, Steen. How are you going to explain it to me? Do you like your stepmother? You have treated her coldly all along, but you even got her pregnant with your child. I didn't expect yo

“Recently, that bitch doesn't dare to touch her phone because her phone is haunted by my mother, right? Ah! Even her fear should be enough to tell that she was scared because she had done something to my mother in the past, but I know that such a thing wouldn't be enough to prove that she was indeed a criminal. That's why I focused on finding something on her phones that were ignored by her out of fear in the past week. On one of her cellphones, I found enough evidence to land her in jail.” When everyone was speechless, it was Steen who continued to speak. Turns out that was his real plan. He didn't plan to pressure Kate so she would kill herself just like his mother did years ago, but he just wanted her to ignore her cell phone so he would get a chance to touch it. Yesterday Kate left the mansion without her cell phone, and Steen took the opportunity to look for more evidence in the cell phone. Finally, he found what he was looking for in one of her cell phones.
I'm a Prostitute, Not a Substitute 298. KATE'S AFFAIR
"SHUT UP! DON'T TALK NONSENSE IN MY HOUSE!" Kate immediately shouted at Peter, but even her voice sounded unsteady as she looked nervous as hell. Her voice was shaking, her pupils were trembling, and even her breathing was ragged. All eyes suddenly fell on the blonde woman, and it was finally Stefan who opened his mouth to respond to the woman, "Are you sure what he said was just nonsense?" Stefan also looked surprised after hearing what Peter had just said, but he still had time to ask the woman that question. At this moment, the woman no longer glared at the kneeling man, and instead, she stiffly shifted her gaze to Stefan. Stefan was her husband, and he was known for his strict and assertive personality. Many people were afraid of him, even Kate was afraid of him before they got married years ago. But today she somehow looked scared again when she had to face the old man even if the man was her spouse. “D-don't listen to what that

Steen had revealed everything. He had disclosed how Vivian and Elena were actually part of a family living far away from Haston City, but Elena was kidnapped by Lily and her husband two decades ago. At that time, the twins' parents died in a car accident, and little Vivian was found by a couple after the incident, and she was raised by the couple into adulthood. Steen deliberately did not mention how Sarah had purposely taken Vivian as her daughter instead of returning the child to her relatives, nor did he mention the name of the family Vivian and Elena came from. He didn't think that the information was necessary, and that's why he kept it a secret. And maybe Stefan really didn't need that information, and the story Steen had just uncovered had shocked the old man enough. His pair of eyes widened as he looked at the twins, but he still didn't say anything as he still couldn't overcome his shock. Steen could see how his father was stunned by

It was Marlon who had just entered the mansion, but this time he was not alone. His hand was holding another person's arm, and that person's hands were tied with a rope behind his back. After arriving at the living room, Marlon forced the person to kneel in front of the five people. One person looked confident after seeing the person's appearance in the living room, while three other people looked shocked and confused, then one person looked scared as her eyes widened when she saw the person who had just arrived in the living room with Marlon. "So, he's the person, Marlon?" It was Steen who looked confident upon seeing the person's arrival in the living room, and although his question was directed at Marlon, his eyes were glued to the figure kneeling in front of him. “Yes, sir,” Marlon immediately answered his boss's question. “His name is Peter Ford, and he works in a bar in town. He's the one who posted that anonymous article about you, sir.”
