CHAPTER 1

Tessa had black stockings on her legs; a tight maroon velvet dress was her choice tonight for work. What are you thinking? Are you thinking of her working in a nightclub or working as a bitch? Unfortunately, Tessa's job wasn't that bad; it was better than selling herself. 

Her cell phone rang again. Tessa immediately picked it up, as the call was from the customer who had hired her tonight. 

"Give me five minutes. Are you at the front yet?" Tessa still didn't know who her customer was tonight, nor did she know his face. One thing she did know was that the man named Harry was 30 years old, about seven years older than Tessa, who was only 23 years old at the moment. 

Tessa quickly ran and stood in front of the old dressing table. She applied dark red lipstick and removed her hair rollers. Letting her wavy display hair fall over her bare shoulders. 

Tessa had had a difficult life in terms of money since she was a child. From a young age, Tessa was used to working to pay off the debts of her uncle, whose face she never saw. But damn it! The loan sharks kept coming after Tessa every month, and it made her feel sick. 

Fortunately, God blessed her with the advantage of a beautiful face. Beautiful body; everything looks goal-oriented without realizing it. Tessa began to get used to being a hired woman in any job other than satisfying lust. 

She could be a mistress, a fake wife, a fiancé, a brother, or a sister of any kind. Even hiring a girlfriend is all she can do. As long as everything he does is based on the money and agreement that he has determined. And one more thing to remember! That she works by the hour. 

Tessa moved out of a modest apartment that she had just bought over the last two months. For everything she purchased with the proceeds of her hard work, Tessa saw a blue Lamborghini. 

"Damn, she's pretty rich, too," Tessa said to herself before she drove closer to the car. Tessa's hand tapped on the glass of the expensive car. 

Click. 

The car door opened upward. It was no surprise to Tessa because, indeed, the people who hired her services before had also used cars of this size. So, she no longer felt like a bumpkin. 

The man in the neat suit with the bow tie looked haughty. Behind the wheel, with dark glasses framing his face, Tessa thought he was quite handsome. 

What did you expect—that the man would be sweet and welcome Tessa like a princess? Blushing! The attitude of a rich man with all his possessions would be arrogant. And anyway, they used Tessa's services and paid money. 

The car began to drive away from the residence, and there was no conversation between the two humans for some time. 

"You should pretend to be my lover. And make the woman I'm set up with hate me." Tessa just nodded as Harry hired her services for a fantastic price. 

They could hug Tessa and kiss her on the lips. If she consented, each couple was entitled to hold hands to support their acting. 

The car they were traveling in stopped at a five-star restaurant. It wouldn't be wrong for Tessa to spend a little of her money on an expensive dress today. She felt that her job today was quite difficult because of the amount of money offered. 

"Are you ready?"

Harry looked at the face of Tessa, who was his hired woman tonight. Honestly, Harry was stunned by Tessa's beauty. How could a woman as beautiful and sexy as Tessa have such an extreme job? 

Harry's hand immediately grabbed one of Tessa's and held it as they got out of the car. Harry gave the car keys to the person in charge of parking the car. 

Tessa let go of Harry's hand. And moved the position of Harry's hand to hug his waist, and his eyes briefly glanced at Harry. The man's expression was surprised only, and Tessa winked her eyes to hint that this was one of her plans. 

"We have to look like a couple who look intimate." Tessa put her head to Harry's ear, whispering in a voice that made Harry's hair stand on end. 

They arrived at one of the tables, where there was a beautiful, fashionable-looking woman. She was not much inferior to Tessa, but to Tessa, she was still the better one. 

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Berlin; I have to pick up my sweetheart first." Harry pulled out a chair for Tessa and called the waiter to bring a chair for her. Because, really, this table only held two people. 

Berlin didn't answer Harry's question, but instead, her eyes just stared at the bitch beside Harry. Lover? What's Harry's taste in this kind of b*tch? 

"Honey, are you hungry? I'm sorry I didn't give you more attention." Harry grabbed the top of Tessa's hand and kissed her in front of Berlin. 

"Ahh, that's okay, honey; you've never been one to miss out on paying attention to me. But we should also be concerned about Berlin's presence." Tessa gave Berlin a dismissive look. 

Berlin just clutched tightly at the black dress she was wearing tonight. It didn't matter how pretty she looked because Berlin still couldn't make Harry like her. However, they had gone through an arranged marriage. 

Their meal came. However, Harry immediately pulled out the plate that was served to Tessa. He cut the medium-rare steak into small pieces and handed it back to Tessa. 

Berlin's eyes began to hurt. Seeing the romance between the two people made her chest feel tight; she was sick of it. His hands just kept stabbing the steak. His appetite was gone. Berlin just wanted to stab the woman in front of him with this knife. 

"Did you lose your appetite after seeing our romance?" Tessa put on her stupid, perverted face before she smiled broadly at him. 

"Bitch!" Berlin stood up and sprayed the water in her glass into Tessa's face. 

Not only that, she gave Tessa a quick slap across the face. Tessa didn't even have time to dodge the slap Berlin was fucking her with. 

"Berlin!" Harry couldn't bear to see Berlin behaving badly toward Tessa. 

Tessa looked at Harry; he nodded his head and approached her lips to kiss Harry's cheek in front of Berlin. After doing that, Tessa's hand also returned the same thing to Berlin's face. 

Tessa's hand flew up to slap Berlin's face repeatedly. She also took the water in her glass and splashed it hard on Berlin's face. 

"Thank you for calling me out; I just wanted to show you how a bitch acts!" Tessa pulled Harry's hand away from the restaurant, her anger getting the better of her. 

"Just transfer the money according to our agreement." Tessa stopped the taxi and got in without looking back at Harry.
