As she heard Derrick's words, Lillian's eyes widened her eyes in surprise.
Her eyes were full of resentment and confusion. She thought, 'Why does everyone want to punish me?' Derrick frowned while looking at the expression on Lillian's face. Just as he thought, Lillian was ignorant and selfish. He thought, 'Lillian claimed that Gloria was pretending to be pitiful. I know better than anyone else. If what Lillian said was true, Gloria wouldn't have been so tense when she confronted me. Not to mention that Gloria was so nervous after I found out about her secret. If Gloria wanted to gain others' sympathy in such a way, she should have lifted her shirt and shown the monstrous scar on her waist to everyone. Yet Gloria did not do so. She put on a lot of clothes and wrapped herself up. She would not let anyone touch her. If not for a coincidence, I think she would've kept it a secret forever.' Derrick pondered for a moment, and then he tooAt Christine's insistence, Gloria came back to Fittro Club to work again only after she was a hundred percent recovered. Gloria felt that her life was back on track, and nothing changed. The only difference was that no matter how hard she tried, there was no work arrangement for her, which made her particularly idle. Emily, her supervisor, would not arrange work for her either. And Christine would never go against Patrick's words. Gloria sat alone in the Public Relations Department's lounge. It somehow became her routine till she got off work. "Time to get off work, finally! I'm beat. But I've got to say. The guest today is so generous." There were gradually more people in the lounge. Everyone was talking and laughing, discussing today's work. Only Gloria was sitting at the side in a daze. She looked up and saw a woman pull out a neat wad of bills. Judging from the thickness, there should be at least 10 thousand dollars. The
Lucas saw how Gloria struggled deep down, and a smile appeared on his lips. He thought, 'You are indeed a greedy woman.' Lucas sighed silently. He figured that Gloria's greedy nature could do him a lot of good since he was loaded. After a while, Gloria slowly opened her mouth and asked, "What can I do for you in exchange for your tip?" A trace of surprise flashed across Lucas' face. To his surprise, Gloria did not just take the money away. She wanted to do something in exchange for the money. Lucas knew women in clubs. He knew those call girls even better. Most of them hoped that they could gain things without having to do anything, or they would not choose such a career in the first place. "Nothing. You just need to sit beside me and let me take you back to the dormitory," Lucas said affectionately. He figured that such sweet talk would move any woman. However, he found no change in Gloria's expression. She just thoug
'Of course not!' Gloria thought angrily, but she managed to collect herself and didn't shout it out loud. She raised her hand, pointed at the door, and said, "It's getting late, Mr. Norman. Please leave!" "I won't apologize to you." Lucas slightly raised his delicate chin, and his face was proud and aloof. When he turned around and stepped out of the door of Gloria's dormitory, he said, "Your wound will fester if left untreated." As Gloria watched Lucas disappear, her breathing was a little disordered, and his last words were still ringing in her ears. Gloria thought angrily, 'What does it have to do with you? What do you know?' The door was still open. Gloria took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. Then she slowly walked forward and closed the door. Suddenly, a force hit the door. The door bounced and made her stagger. "Lillian?" Lillian was at the door, and she looked like a ghastly evil spirit. She said fiercely, "Gl
Lillian had now lost her job at Fittro Club as well as Derrick. She was now looking for a new job. However, it was almost impossible for her to land a job with generous pay like Fittro Club. What was more, her voice had become hoarse and unpleasant after she was punished by Patrick and Derrick. All of this added up to her anger and resentment. Of course, she refused to leave just like that. "You can't get rid of me," Lillian said as she raised her head. Gloria nodded. She picked up her phone and called Christine. She said, "Christine, I would like to ask you to pass a message for me to Mr. Hammond. Tell him that I'd like to take back my plea. I no longer want Mr. Hammond to spare Lillian's life. I'm willing to pay any price for that." Lillian heard Gloria's every word. Immediately, Lillian's face turned pale. She quickly said, "Gloria, no!" Gloria did not hang up the phone. She glanced at Lillian and said to Christine over the phone,
Early the next morning, Gloria came to Fittro Club. She put her things into the locker, came to Christine's office, and knocked on the door. "Christine, I'll have to ask you to save for me again," Gloria said and put a stack of bills on Christine's desk. Christine gawked at the money on the desk for a second and asked, "Who gave it to you?" Christine thought Emily had arranged a new job for Gloria. Gloria didn't think too much about it. She briefly explained to Christine what happened last night. Christine frowned deeply after hearing Gloria's words. She looked at Gloria and said, "Him? Gloria, didn't I tell you to stay away from this man?" "But he gave me money," Gloria said. Christine felt a little helpless. If someone other than Gloria had said this, Christine would have despised the person a lot. However, she knew Gloria well. Gloria wanted to get rid of Patrick. Therefore, she had to earn a million dollars in a mon
Derrick dragged Gloria out of Fittro Club. Gloria thought Derrick would take her to some restaurant in downtown Gabbs, but he took her to the back of Fittro Club building. He shifted quickly in front of Gloria, and his wolf was gray-black and huge. He lowered his head and gently bit Gloria's hand with his canine teeth. Gloria put her arms around Derrick's wolf and got on his back. Carrying Gloria on his back, Derrick spread out his legs and started running. She was so light for him and so he could still run at full speed. He ran and took Gloria to a town near Shadow Forest. Derrick put Gloria under a tree, and then he walked behind the trunk and shifted back to human form. "This is the Blood Moon Pack." Derrick walked up to Gloria. He took her to the pack territory. Gloria was not used to her hand being held, but Derrick wouldn't let go. She pulled her hand back several times, yet every time, Derrick would hold her hand again
Gloria found herself despicable. In fact, she had thought about asking Derrick for help, to buy back her freedom from the Fittro Club. "Do you want to say something?" Just as Derrick dropped Gloria off at Fittro Club's door, he suddenly pulled her and asked. "No. Nothing." Gloria felt dry in her throat. She couldn't ask the question out loud. She glanced at Derrick, turned around, and walked towards the club's door hastily as if she was running away from something. However, because of her leg, she couldn't walk fast. She tried to move forward as quickly as she could while dragging her injured leg, like a clown. Gloria did not dare to look at the man behind her. She suddenly felt ashamed of herself and thought, 'You are so hideous, Gloria!' She stood in front of the elevator. The doors opened. She was about to enter. Then she looked up and saw Patrick's angry and cold face. Gloria took a step back. Her guts told her that the man in f
Patrick opened his eyes in the dark and glanced sideways at Gloria, who was asleep in his arms. His gaze fell on her neck, which was covered in hickeys. And then he closed his eyes again. To Patrick's surprise, Gloria left so many bloody bite marks on his shoulder. He didn't get it. Why did he let her do it? And why did he kiss every part of her body so madly? His instinct urged him to get close to Gloria, to make her his. He didn't want to control himself. Patrick also said to himself, "Don't think about it." The next day, when Gloria woke up, her eyes were bloodshot. She gave herself a few seconds to react. Then suddenly, she remembered what happened yesterday. She quickly sat up and looked around. Patrick had already left. As she breathed a sigh of relief, she felt a dull pain in her heart. When she got up, she realized that she slept all night while being completely naked. She actually fell asleep next to Patrick!
