Semua Bab In the Name of Ambition: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Axel I felt tormented by memories of the first night in Santorini, but I couldn’t recall everything. The information I had about that night all came from other people. I went back to the same club every day I was in Santorini, but I never found the same woman with whom I had shared a passionate night. Not that I was capable of remembering her, but I was always alongside Fred, the only one who had seen her, so he could alert me to the girl's presence.  Anton and I were back at the club that night, and he commented on the fact that I wasn't drinking."You're holding back today, huh?" Anton said, raising an eyebrow as he took a sip of his beer. "After the drinking spree on the first day,

Pietra When the doorbell rang, my heart nearly stopped. I opened the door to find Mirella standing there, her expression serious but resolute.  “We need to talk,” she said, stepping inside.  A chill ran down my spine as I followed her to the living room, where we sat down.  “What I’m about to propose isn’t easy,” she began, looking directly into my eyes. “But if you’re truly willing to do anything to get the money, this might work.”  I held my breath, bracing myself for the proposal that could change our lives—for better or worse. Mirella then revealed the truth she had so carefully kept hidden.  “Pietra, I work

RebeccaWhen Eric called to tell me Aaron was coming to meet me again, I felt a knot in my stomach, accompanied by an emotion I was ashamed to admit: excitement. I’d spent these past days replaying the moments we shared, and knowing it would happen again made me both nervous and anxious.I took a shower, letting the warm water calm me a little, then applied lotion all over my body, now painfully aware of what was about to happen. Opening the wardrobe, I sifted through the clothes I had bought with the card Eric gave me and chose a tight dress with a plunging neckline. I had bought it with Aaron in mind.I slipped into the dress and looked at myself in the mirror. The reflection showed a provocative, attractive woman. For a moment, I almost liked what I saw. But then I scolded myself. What I was about to do had nothing to do with se

Pietra Accepting Mirella’s proposal was one of the hardest decisions I had ever made. Now, as I prepared for this new reality, the weight of responsibility pressed down on me like never before. I decided to keep working at the diner during the day and take on only a few night jobs as an escort. The thought of leaving Isaque and Andressa alone at night didn’t sit well with me, but I reassured myself that Andressa had only fainted once and that they could keep each other company. Even so, I made it clear to Mirella that if Andressa needed me, I would return home immediately. Mirella, with her experience, walked me through everything in detail. She explained how the agency worked, what to expect, and what I would have to do. She assured me that I could set boundaries and that the agency would ensure clients were aware of and respected those limits. The owner of the agency, known as Dandara, was a respected businesswoman who kept her identity a secret. She handpicked the girls base

Anton  Pietra accepted the proposal, but I didn’t feel ready for anything else that night. I didn’t want her to be with me just because I was paying. But extreme situations demand desperate measures, and I was acting on emotion. Now, with Pietra staring at me, I had no idea what to do next.  "What do you want me to do?" she asked, her voice slicing through the heavy silence between us.  I took a deep breath, trying to find clarity amidst the whirlwind of thoughts.  "We need to settle on the amounts and how I’ll make the payments before anything else," I replied, trying to buy some time.  Pietra’s eyes lit up at the mention of money, and it made my chest tighten. I could
