When Dario finally reacted and wanted to dodge the kiss, the woman bit his lips and refused to let go. This woman was insane! Damn, he had actually met a drunkard! Dario's eyes became horrifying while he was about to teach this woman a lesson, a warm droplet dripped on his face. The tears slowly turned cold and dried up into tear stains.

Jade started crying for no reason. Dario frowned and was about to push her arms away. Unexpectedly, she started crying louder and louder until she started bawling her eyes out on his chest.

"Ah! Why? Why do you all have to do this to me? Why?!" Jade ignored her reputation as she cried. She continuously punched the man's chest beneath her while she cried. Everyone in the bar turned their gazes towards her and started gossiping. This man was no ordinary man but a very powerful business tycoon, Dario Foster.

"Hey, why are you crying? Bob, it's all your fault. I told you not to go too far. Look, you've made her cry!" Amelie got shocked and dashed forward to help Jade up.

Bob frowned, “Tsk, what does it have to do with me! She's the one who went for it."

"Jade, what's wrong? We were just joking. Sir, I'm sorry," Amelie apologized to Dario as she pulled the crying Jade back to her seat. Jade was dragged away forcefully. At that moment, she kept on shouting at Dario with a heartbreaking voice and welled-up eyes, "All men are disgusting!"

Dario looked towards the direction they left with excitement, but it was only for a moment until he regained his composure and left expressionlessly as if everything that happened was just an illusion. Even though what had just happened was embarrassing, he behaved arrogantly.

The people around him did not dare to say a word after seeing his expression.

"Why...Why did they do this to me?" Jade cried as she felt miserable as she recalled her past memories. 

"Alright, alright, it's all my fault, okay? Seriously, woman. If you can't play, then don't play!" Bob commented as he surrendered.

However, they had misunderstood the reason for her tears. It was certainly not because of the game, but it was because it reminded her of her first kiss with her ex-boyfriend when she kissed the man. Five years, exactly five years, she had given him her heart, her time, but then, it all concluded into a relationship between her ex-boyfriend and her cousin.

"Jade, are you alright?! Don't cry, it's all my fault," Amelie patted her shoulder in an effort to comfort her. Jade sniffed and wiped away her tears as she shook her head and said, "I'm fine. It has nothing to do with you. It's my own problem."

Jade did not blame them for any of this as no one knew the real face of her ex-boyfriend. She was just an ordinary person, but her ex-boyfriend was a famous figure in Washington, Bruce Stevans, the only successor of Stevans' Group, an affluent business family. Even if she did, no one would believe she was dating him. Meeting him five years ago was also a coincidence. He had given into her, all perhaps, because he was bored of playing with the rich girls and wanted to play with Cinderella.

It was time for Cinderella to return to her place, and for the prince to marry the princess.

At this moment, Bob sat down beside her and reached for a glass of wine. With a subtle voice, he said, "Jade, are you tired? Should we find a place to rest and have a drink together?"

Jade glanced at him and saw that he was looking at her with malicious intent. His cunning hands were only aiming to touch her thighs.

"Sure." 

She smiled cheekily as she leaned towards him and took his wine. Just as he proudly acknowledged his success, she suddenly splashed the wine on his face.

"Shameless!"

The two handsome men gaped at what just happened.

"Hey, hey, hey! Lucas, did you see…our boss was being taken advantage of by a woman, but he didn't resist at all!" A handsome guy with fashionable clothes said in surprise.

"I'm not blind." Lucas, who was sitting next to him, looked at him indifferently and said those words to him as if he was thinking of something else.

"Why do you think that he didn't resist? All these years, there have been so many girls surrounding him like flies but he didn't even spare them a glance! Tell me, could it be love at first sight?"

"I don't know."

"Tsk, boring. He hasn't been in a relationship with any woman in these five years. I thought he's frigid or maybe gay. Hehe," said the other man, David.

"Nonsense!" Lucas covered his mouth immediately after feeling a chill down his spine.

As soon as Dario came over and sat beside them, the tension in the room immediately dampened and went to a complete silence. David Swan, who kept on talking just now, did not dare to say a word. He just looked at the wound on Dario's lips and tried to hold back his laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Dario glanced at him. David immediately covered his mouth with his hands while his shoulders trembled.

"No, it's nothing."

...

"Damn it, trying to be innocent?" Bob instantly flew into a rage, but in the end, he still lost in the argument and was stopped by those people. Jade was about to yell back at him, but a call came in. The surroundings were too noisy, so she had to go to the washroom to answer the call.

As soon as she answered the phone, a sharp voice came from the other end.

"Jade! You are getting bolder by the second. Look at how many times I've called you. Don't you know who raised you? Do you have a conscience?"

The one speaking through the phone was her aunt. Facing her barrage of bullets, Jade had long trained her mind to be like an iron wall.

In the past, she would have chosen to remain silent. But today, her aunt had crossed the line and insisted on calling her at this time because the woman who stole her boyfriend was her very own daughter. "If you have something to say, just say it!" Jade clenched her fists tightly as she shouted and her face turned red, not leaving a single trace of emotion. The woman on the other end of the line was stunned for a moment. 

When she recovered from her shock, she immediately scolded her again!

"Damn you, Jade! Is this how you talk to your elders? Don't forget, your mom ran off with someone else, and your dad died. All these years, you, as well as your grandma, have been relying on our family for medicine and all other ailments. Every month, you've accumulated a ton of medical fees! Nothing in this world is free. If it weren't for us, both of you would have starved to death on the streets!"

Jade had become tired of listening to her nagging. Her mother ran off with her father's money, and her father passed away. Although her father had left her a legacy, it had been left to her uncles and aunts at that time, who raised her.

They had been kind to her in the first few years, but later on, they had become even harsher towards her. They began saying that it was her father's inheritance and that she had already used up all of it, with her now having to rely on them to survive. However, Jade knew within her that, although her mother had made a fortune for her, her father still had several other companies. Thus, how could her father's inheritance deplete so quickly?

Her younger cousin was with her. Because her father had become rich, she had grown up to be like a princess. Yet, she had become the person with the lowest status. It was truly ironic. 

"Aren't you tired after talking for so long?" If it wasn't for the fact that her grandmother still needed the medical fees, she would have left a long time ago. 

"Stupid girl, have you gone out of you mind? I'm telling you, I'll give you half an hour. Come back immediately, or you'll have to face the consequences," her aunt yelled.

Before she could finish her sentence, Jade hung up the phone. Afraid that she would call again, she even activated her flight mode. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly felt dizzy and almost stumbled after her steps. It seemed like she really drank too much that day, and her drunkenness was blocking her senses.

Jade looked into the mirror and realized that not only had her face started to turn red, but her lips had also turned pale. No wonder Bob wanted to make a move on her. He must have seen that she was drunk and wanted to use the opportunity to take advantage of her. She rushed to the sink and washed her face with ice water. Though she wanted to sober up, her hangover prevented her from doing so. She knew that going back there was not an option; thus, she had to find a way to leave. After all, this was a bar. She had better leave early.

She used her cold fingers to pat her face and pinched her thigh before she staggered out. Due to her weak feet, she bumped into a middle-aged man the moment she stepped into the corridor. 

"Damned girl, are you blind? You even dare to hit me?" The man cursed. Jade was about to apologize when the man suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. He leant his face close to hers and looked at her carefully. "Hey pretty, don't worry... come here! I don't bite. Hehe."

The man reeked of alcohol. He even shamelessly rubbed his lower body against her upon realizing how pretty Jade was and began molesting her.

"Get lost, you damned pervert!" Jade still retained the last bit of rationality in her mind. She struggled desperately to break free from the man's evil intentions. However, she was too weak to defend a man. "Hey, little girl, stop moving. Come, give me a kiss!" Jade nearly puked when she heard a bald middle-aged man say that to her.

"Who wants to kiss you, damn bastard?" Jade was so furious that she simply kicked his crotch with her knee. The man immediately let out a blood-curdling screech.

"Ouch, damn you, bitch! Don't run! I'll beat you to death today!"

Jade took advantage of the fact that he was holding onto his crotch and hurriedly ran away. Just as she ran out of the washroom with her head down, she bumped into another person's sturdy chest. It was unknown if that person's muscles were too well-developed, causing her to feel nauseous and in pain. 

“Oh my God, don't be another pervert!” Jade uttered.

Jade lifted her head and her eyes met with a pair of clear and cold eyes. Her heart constricted.

It was Dario again…

Dario frowned and suddenly felt turned on. As he glanced towards Jade's breasts, his eyes became dull.

Damn it, he cursed to himself as he carried Jade out.

David shouted after him, "Seems like this will be necessary."

He ran up and stuffed the presidential suite card into his pocket.

"Have fun, Mr. Foster!"

David looked at Dario's figure in surprise when he left. His jaw dropped.

"Stop staring. Let's go," Lucas reached out his hand and pushed his jaw back up.

"Hey, hey, hey. Lucas, did you see? He actually went into the hotel room with a woman! All these years, even if a woman was standing naked in front of him, he was not fazed! I think he must have fallen in love with that beautiful woman."

David smiled mischievously, but Lucas wore a stern look on his face as if he was worried about something.

In these five years, Dario had sealed his heart, unwilling to open it to anyone. He had almost reached the state of abstinence. Would it really be so easy for him to fall in love?

"Hey… where are you going?" said David as Lucas walked out.

"He already left, what are we still doing here?" replied Lucas.

David followed Lucas out of the room. 

"Hey, where are you taking me?" Jade began to lose feeling in her legs. She felt like she was flying.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you wanted to sleep with me? Otherwise, why did you touch my private parts? Or are you afraid now?" Dario carried her into the room as if he was carrying a little bird.

"Who's afraid?!"

She kissed his icy-cold lips again. This time, she did not just kiss him on his lips but stuck her tongue in too. However, she had no idea what to do next, and just awkwardly went with the flow.

Dario was once again forcefully kissed by this woman.

He did not respond to her kiss, but neither did he push her away. There was a glimpse of playfulness in his emotionless eyes, as if he wanted to see what else she would do.

By now, she had already fully unbuttoned Dario's shirt. She was able to see everything at a glance, especially the definition of his firm muscles. Jade started to nibble wildly on his body. Her clothes were loose, and once she bent over, he could see each and every part of her body.

Jade had gotten so drunk that she had lost her last bit of sense. All she could think of was to vent her anger and take revenge on Bruce. She hated all these men to the bone.

Though Jade left many love-bites on Dario’s body after nibbling for some time, he was still leaning on the pillow calmly. There was not a single trace of emotion on his face, as if he could not feel anything and let her do whatever she wanted.

Jade was unfamiliar with all of this and was just doing what she had seen on TV. However, her awkwardness made Dario feel even more awkward.

I guess this must be her first time, he thought.

Dario's pupils got smaller as the light in his eyes became more opaque.

"Hey, are you impotent? Why don't you have any reaction at all!" Seeing that he did not have an erection after such a long time, Jade was getting irritated, and she blurted out these vulgarities without thinking.

She hit his chest hard. Why did he still remain composed even after she kissed him for so long? Was she really that unattractive? Was that the reason why her ex-boyfriend abandoned her?

Meanwhile, Dario thought, Impotent? Well done. Finally, someone dared to talk back to him!

Dario rolled over and pinned her down on the bed. His eyes were filled with an unknown emotion that even Jade could not read.

"Do you know why I didn't have any reaction? That's because you kissed the wrong part." Dario's Adam's apple bobbed in his throat as he stared into her distant eyes.

At this moment, Jade's blushing face, red lips, and breasts under the translucent clothes were all seducing him. Her next words triggered him even more.

"Mm? What?"

"You should kiss here instead."

Dario pulled Jade's slender wrist harshly and placed her little hand on his lower abdomen. Then, he felt a warm sensation from Jade's palm.

Before meeting her, he thought that he would never be interested in another woman. But unexpectedly, she ignited his desire.

"Mm, what's that?"

"If you want to know so badly, why don't you unzip it and see it for yourself?" Dario held her hand and led her to take off his belt.

Jade fiddled with it for a while, but she realized that the design of the exquisite belt was complex and impossible for her to take off. Therefore, she ripped it off forcefully. The friction of his pants and her gentle touch against his lower abdomen lit the fire within Dario even more.

"Can't take it off? Let me teach you." Dario squinted his eyes and looked at Jade, who was moving around on him like an adorable little bunny. 

Dario pushed lightly, and the belt automatically unbuckled. Then, Jade slowly took off his pants.

She immediately regretted it.

Jade was shocked by what she saw and tried to escape. But Dario pinned her forcefully on the bed, and she could even feel that warm part around his crotch pressing against her body through her clothes.

"No… no. I don't want to see it." Jade closed her eyes in fear and felt someone undress her. At that moment, her heart sank into fear.

"Oh? Do you regret provoking me? I'll show you the consequences of provoking me." Dario reached out his hands and finished undressing her in the blink of an eye. Her beautiful body was extremely mesmerizing under the dim light. Then, they slept together with warmth and passion.

"..." 

The next day, when Jade woke up, she felt only pain all over her body.

She gently rubbed her eyes, and just as she was about to get up, she noticed the unfamiliar room. Huh, why was she not in her bed? Where is this, a hotel?

Why is it freezing here? 

She looked down and realized that she was not wearing anything but a towel. She then turned her head stiffly towards the direction of the bathroom and heard the sound of water running.

Someone was in there!

The glass in the bathroom was translucent, so she could see the outline of a huge figure.

At that point, she felt like she was suffocating.

What happened?!

Why was there a man in her room?

Right, it was starting to come back...Yesterday her ex-boyfriend broke up with her, and she went to a bar for a drink to forget what happened. Then, she lost a bet to a pervert and kissed a handsome man. After that, she even had a quarrel with her aunt.

Her mood was so bad, but then she was chased by a disgusting middle-aged man. And after all that, she had met another man and pressured him into sleeping with her!

That's right. That about sums it up! 

"Shit!" Jade reached out her hand and slapped her forehead. Damn, that was a drunken night! Was that really her? Was she possessed?!

She tried to recall what happened and seemed to remember that a man pinned her onto the bed, forcing her to touch his private parts. That flashback was disgusting.

Oh God, had she lost her virginity?

But why did she not feel any emotion at all? If she really had sex with him, she would at least feel something.

She looked around for her clothes and tried to escape while he was having a shower, but before she could find them, she heard the bathroom door open.

"You're awake," said a familiar deep voice.

"AHH! A pervert!"

Jade turned her head around and saw a drenched, naked man. It was such an eyesore, but…

But, his body looked perfect with his eight-pack abs and that handsome face. Thinking about it, she could not help but take a peek at him.

Dario's star-like pupils became even more intense when he noticed her looking.

When Jade came back to her senses, the chilling aura had spread towards her.

A freezing yet powerful hand pulled her hand away, and she heard a mocking whisper in her ears.

"Do you shower with your clothes on?"

"Ah! You pervert! Why don't you get dressed before coming out!"

"Because there's only a towel in the bathroom." While Dario was talking, he reached out his hands to pull off the towel that Jade was wearing.

"Ah! Pervert!" Jade's body felt cold since she was exposed to the air. She rushed towards the bed, wrapping herself up with a blanket.

Dario toweled himself off with an indifferent expression, and Jade felt his ignorance might drive her insane.

His dour gaze fell on her snow-white shoulders.

He laughed to himself. Pervert, ruffian—he had acquired so many nicknames in just a day.

Not to mention this ordinary woman before him—or was she so ordinary? Even well-known female celebrities would try their best to win him over. No one had ever dared to scold him.

This was interesting.

"Why are you covering yourself? I've seen every part of your body." Dario said indifferently as he glanced at Jade.

"Pah!"

To Dario’s surprise, she slapped him. He never would have dreamed that this woman could do such a thing.

"You pervert, clear my name! You beast!" Jade raised her hand while pulling her blanket more tightly around her. She was already in such a miserable state. Being humiliated by this stranger was just too much!

However, she regretted it as soon as she slapped him.

She was stunned at the sight of Dario's terrifying eyes. She did not even dare to breathe.

"Are you seeking death? I can grant you that wish." Dario pinched her chin and completely ignored the pain that she showed on her face. This woman had gone too far. Did she really think he was that patient?

At that moment, she really thought she was going to die.

"I... I didn't mean it…" Jade's heart was filled with terror, afraid that she would die in that hotel room. After thinking for quite a while, she realized that she was the one who took the initiative to pester him. Even if they had sex, she couldn’t blame everything on him. She had some of the responsibility too. She realized that she had slapped him simply because he said something that made her feel embarrassed.

Dario threw back the blanket and saw Jade’s naked body revealed before him. She felt a chill and started shivering uncontrollably.

"You… What are you trying to do? "

"Didn't you just call me a beast? Aren't I a let-down if I don't do anything to you?"

His skin was cold as ice after the shower. Jade could not even feel any warmth leaning against him. In fact, she felt even colder. Last night, due to the effect of alcohol, she lost her sense of shame despite what had happened.

Now that she had sobered up, however, she could feel the helplessness of being completely controlled.

This man… he was even more terrifying than she could have imagined.

"No…" Jade reached out her arms trying to cover up her private parts, but he gripped her arms tightly and placed them above her head. This shameless position was driving her crazy.

"Bear in mind, you're the one who started it." Dario gripped her arms with only one hand, while he ran the fingers of his other hand over her body restlessly.

Jade flinched and immediately sensed a tingle in her senses as she looked into that expressionless poker face.

"Take a good look at your masterpiece. Now, it's payback time." Dario pointed at the scars on his body as his movement became wilder, without any sense of care towards her.

Desperate, Jade switched to another strategy after seeing that the man was going to harm her and that she could not defend herself. She stared at him with a pair of wide, luminous eyes, hoping that he would sympathize with her.

"About that, mister... yesterday, I got drunk because of all that alcohol. Please forgive me and let me go. Besides, you're so handsome, women must be lining up to have sex with you. Why do it with me? And as for the bruises on your body, they'll get better if you put on some ointment. I'll even pay for it!" Jade took on a self-deprecating tone just to keep herself safe.

Dario stopped and stared at Jade, who was playing dumb. At that moment, she saw a ray of hope, but it was crushed by his next words.

"In your dreams!"

"Worse comes to worst, you can slap me back!"

"Shut up!" 

Dario only meant to tease her by violently lifting her up and spreading her legs open. However, he was turned on by her look. When he was about to put it in, Jade suddenly burst into tears.

She hit him with the full force of her grievance and humiliation.

Jade’s tears burst forth like water from a dam, spilling down her face while she hit and scolded him.

"All men are brutal. None of you are good. All you guys want is to have sex with me! But I wanted to give my first time to the one who marries me. What have I done wrong? Why... Why are you doing this to me?"

Bruce and this man both—was it that hard not to have sex?!

Dario was feeling confused. One moment she pestered him to have sex with her, and the next she acted as if she was the victim. If she hadn’t puked all over the bed last night, he might have already lost control of himself.

Damn woman!

Although he knew Jade was acting, Dario still felt his heart ache when he saw the tears rolling down her cheeks.
