Using his electric motorcycle, James took Thea to a large-scale job fair nearby.Once they arrived, Thea said, “Jamie, why don’t you wait for me outside? I’ll take a look by myself.”James said jokingly, “Why? Am I an embarrassment to you?”Thea hurriedly explained, “Of course not. It’s just that it might take a long time. I’m worried that you’ll feel bored. There’s an Internet cafe nearby. Why don’t you play some games there? I’ll call you when I’ve finished.”Thea pushed James gently.As a woman, she had read many books on relationships even though she had no prior experience.All the books stated that men hated to wander around aimlessly with women. She was honestly worried that he would get bored.“I don’t know how to play any games. I’ll come with you. I’ll be worried if I’m not with you since you’re so pretty.” James smiled.Thea felt warm inside. She nodded obediently.Whatever she said, she had hoped that James would stay with her.Both of them entered the job fair to
Thea placed her resume on the table.Just then, the man raised his head.Seeing Thea, he was surprised.“Hold on.”“Huh?”Thea was about to leave after handing in her resume, but she stopped and looked at the recruiting manager of Ella Corporation. She asked, “Is there anything else?”Hank Wilson stared at Thea, giving her a once-over. His expression turned greedy. He had never seen a more beautiful woman.Hank pointed to the chair, saying, “Take a seat. Let’s talk.”“Okay.”Thea sat.“Which position are you applying for?”“I’m applying for the position of fashion designer.”“Do you have any related work experience?”“No.”Hank frowned, saying, “Sweetheart, this won’t do. Do you know who we are and what our designers represent?”As he spoke, he leafed through her resume.“You graduated from a second-rate local fashion design academy and you don’t have any experience yet.” He shook his head slightly. “Do you know? Everyone applying for this job is an international gradua
It was time to go home.Hank told the other applicants to return the next day.After that, he packed his things and said, “Thea, why don’t we go back to my place? There’s nobody at home. I can explain everything in great detail.”“Huh?” Thea was stunned. “Your place?”Seeing Thea’s shocked expression, Hank amended his statement quickly. “My place is nearer, so it’s more convenient. If you’re uncomfortable with that, we can go to my office instead.”Hank was the human resources manager at Ella Corporation. As he was in charge of recruiting, he had his own office.There was a couch in his office, which would work just as well as a bed.He had thought it through. He would get Thea into bed by hook or by crook.After all, the media labeled her the most beautiful woman in Cansington.He got excited just thinking about her hot body and her pretty face.Thea breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that they would be going to his office. Quickly, she said, “Thank you, sir.”“Don’t
The woman looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She was a vision in a black leather jacket and black leather pants with long, black hair flowing down her back. Her clothes showed off her lithe figure.Once she arrived at the underground parking lot, she stood in a corner and looked around, as if she was looking for something. Subtly, she reached behind her back, producing an exquisite pistol.At that moment, she turned around suddenly and aimed it right at James.Seeing that it was James, she panicked. She put the pistol away quickly and stammered, “It-it’s you?”James sauntered over and leaned against a stone pillar, studying the woman who looked deceptively innocent. Mildly, he said, “What are you doing here? Why aren’t you at the border of the Southern Plains?”James had seen this woman before. She was a key member of a band of grave robbers. He had caught her robbing an ancient tomb before.However, since they were robbing the enemy’s ancient tomb, he l
The Prince of Orchid Mountain’s tomb, the treasure chest, the key, Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge, and Black Rose?James looked at Black Rose, gracefully clad in a black leather jacket. He got lost in his thoughts.Was it just a coincidence, or was all this part of some bigger plan?“General, please grant me your protection,” Black Rose said again, a pleading expression on her face.James glanced at her. “You just told me that someone murdered all your companions. Not only did you not run away, but you followed the attacker to Cansington. Now, you’re asking for my protection. How is this logical?”Black Rose explained, “The murderer who took the chest isn’t the mastermind. The murderer wants the box for himself, so he did not hand it over to the mastermind. Instead, he escaped to Cansington, lying low. It’s why I followed him here. I have the key. If the mastermind finds out, I wouldn’t survive.”“Who’s the mastermind?”Black Rose shook her head. “I’m not sure. I never deal
“Thank you.”“Oh yeah. Thea, I heard that your husband is Lex’s handpicked candidate. He’s an orphan and a retired soldier. Why are you with him? You could definitely do better than him. Why not consider a successful young man who’s wealthy?”As he said that, Hank straightened up. “I know someone. He’s young, already a manager at a big organization with a monthly income of fifty thousand dollars. He has a house and a car. Why don’t you divorce James? My friend would be good for you!”The friend he was talking about was himself.However, he was smart enough not to make it so obvious.He was testing Thea.Thea felt warm. She pulled her shirt up slightly and fanned herself.Noticing Hank’s perverted gaze, she blushed. Looking away, she said in a small voice, “Sorry, Hank. I’m feeling a little warm.”“It’s not warm. The AC is on.”Hank took the opportunity to sit down beside Thea. He touched her forehead. “Do you have a fever?”Thea avoided his touch, twisting away from him. “Han
In the office.Hank took off all his clothes.He walked to the bathroom and pushed the door, only to discover it was locked.“She’s quite alert,” he bit out viciously. Knocking on the door, he shouted, “Thea, open up!”In the bathroom.Thea kept splashing her face and even her head with water. Her clothes were soaking wet, clinging to her body and putting her curves on full display.However, the drugs were powerful. No amount of water could negate their effects.She grew warmer and warmer.She felt as if bugs were crawling inside her, a primal desire rising.She had never felt desire like this before.She squatted on the floor, pulling at her clothes and scratching at her skin.Outside the door, Hank’s voice rang out. “Come on, Thea, open up. You want it, don’t you? I’ll make you feel better if you open the door…”Hank kept teasing her from the outside.Thea still had her wits about her.She knew that she could not give in.She had a husband.Her husband was James.She
Hank dragged Thea out, throwing her on the couch.Thea’s clothes were in tatters. She was going to lose her mind.Hank was like a cat playing with a mouse, wearing a playful expression. “Come on, Thea. Beg me. Beg me!”Thea bit her lip.Even though her body could no longer take it, she refused to say anything.Just then, something happened.Crash!Someone kicked the locked office door down.The office door collapsed. A man rushed in furiously, veins popping on his face.“Wh-who are you?”Hank turned just in time to see the door collapsing and a man rushing in.He felt the temperature in the room drop, feeling like he had been plunged into ice. Involuntarily, he shivered.James walked to him.“Who are you…”James saw Thea lying on the couch, her body soaked and her clothes in tatters. Anger rose within him. He reached behind him, producing two silver needles.Swoosh!The needles flew out from his hands.“Ah…”Hank moaned.He was now blind.James grabbed his arm and p
