I took a deep breathe in before opening my mouth to speak “Uhmm.... uhmm can I have the money now?”

I watched as his eyes darkened for a split second but in the next two seconds, it was gone . He walked towards me and grabbed my wrist in a dead grip, yanking me out from the bed.

“I don't know what kind of dirty games you're playing but if you ever think of running away without completing the job assigned to you, I would track you down and make your life miserable ” his words were dripped in a layer of ice.

I tried yanking my hands away from his dead grip but my efforts proved to be infertile, after all, my strength was never in par with his.

“Don't worry, I won't run away and just like you said, if I run away, you would still track me down” I spoke while meeting his gaze calmly.

He let go of my hands and reached for his phone, making a call for a few minutes. After making the phone call, he walked towards his wardrobe and grabbed a neat bedsheets which was white In color before draping it around my shoulders, covering me from head to toes.

And immediately my nakedness was covered, there was a knock on the door, “Sir Kent, Can I come in?”

“Yes”

A young man on a black suit walked in with a briefcase in his right hand. He handed the briefcase over to Kent who took it and dismissed him.

Kent opened it exposing countless bundles of cash. Upon seeing the money, a gleam flashed across Audrey's eyeballs, my sister's life can be saved immediately!

Just thinking about this was enough to put a breathe taking smile on her face.

However, Kent knew nothing about her suffering and emotional turmoil so he misunderstood her, thinking that she was a gold digger/ money lover who could do anything at all to get Cash even if it was to sell herself. Kent didn't know why but thinking about this possibility made him so angry that his eyeballs turned red.

He walked towards her with the suitcase in his hands and didn't stop until he was right in front of her. Audrey stretched out her right hand to collect the briefcase, however, Kent raised the briefcase filled with cash above her head before flipping it over and the bundles of cash poured around her , some hitting her face.

Her cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

“Don't you need money? Bend and pick them up one by one” He spoke coldly and that was when Audrey knew his agenda, he was trying to embarrass her.

In his eyes, she was nothing but a toy who could do anything for money and Audrey didn't really care what he thinks of her, she didn't care about her dignity that was being trampled on by him because if she did, she wouldn't have made up her mind to be here.

Audrey bent down and started picking the money one by one while placing it back into the briefcase until the complete amount was kept and locked in safely. By the time, Audrey had raised up her head after a very long time, Kent was gone.

Audrey hugged the briefcase filled with money and walked out of the room after putting on her dress. She quickly hailed a cab to the hospital where her sister, may was admitted.

And after many hours of waiting, she was finally allowed to see the doctor responsible for may's health and surgery.

“Doctor, hah, Thank God I've finally seen u, I managed to get the money for may's surgery!. The surgery should start today, we can't waste any more time!!” Audrey spoke stretching the briefcase filled with stacks of cash towards the doctor who stopped her.

“Miss Audrey, I'm so so sorry but Your sister just passed away a few hours ago, early in the morning at 01:00AM” Doctor Mark shook his head in pity.

“What?” Audrey felt her whole being freeze up in both shock and Regret.

The briefcase fell from Audrey's hand and she felt like could feel the world spinning through her peripheral vision. Her sister was dead??

Audrey's vision blurred terribly, the beautiful moment she shared with her little sister and parents flashed before her eyes before her surrounding turned dark.

********

Audrey opened her eyes slowly and the first thing she stared at the pure white ceiling, then the next thing that hit her was the strong smell of medicines. She was in a hospital ward and Immediately she sat up, she recollected every thing that occured yesterday.

Not only did she, agree to that contract and sell herself so that she could see her little sister everyday, healthy, sound and happy, however, the news of her death was what she received in return. Audrey sat down, curled up like a ball, crying like a new born baby.

Audrey didn't want to stay anymore, she needed to take her sister's ashes and bury her in a safe place. Then cancel the deal once and for all. What's the use of resuming the deal when the reason was no more.

With that in mind, she rushed to find doctor mark and fortunately, she was given the ashes of her little sister on time.

Audrey hugged it to her chest before exiting the hospital. As she hailed a cab to the hotel where she met Kent, she looked like a mad woman with disheveled hair, dirty clothes, and no shoes but she didn't care because she was determined to cancel their agreement.

🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀......

Audrey waited for more than five massive hours before Kent showed up.

He looked attractive in his dark suit, matching his cold and distant personality. The tailored fit emphasized his strong frame, while his piercing eyes and aloof expression added to his mysterious charm.

Audrey flushed bright red. F**k! What was wrong with her? It've been only two days since they met so why was her Expression so massive whenever she saw him. At that moment, she wanted to slap herself.

Audrey quickly cleared her throat to cover her embarassment, “Uhmm, can we talk please?”

Kent didn't say a word instead reached the center of the room, his gaze fixated on a dark couch beckoning him, he exudes confidence as he settles onto the dark couch, his legs casually spread. With a hint of seduction, he lights a cigarette, placing it between his lips, casting a mesmerizing charm that captivates audrey who was present in the room, creating an irresistible atmosphere of allure.

“I want to cancel our agreement!” Audrey looked away from him as she spoke.

Seeing his posture now made her to remember the night before. Something she doesn't want to remember even for one second.

After Audrey summoned courage to speak whatever that was on her mind, she expected him to shout or break her legs for wasting his time or something. However, there was silence, deadly silence that got cold sweat dripping down Audrey's back.

Sh!t

When Audrey thought the silence would drag on for a very long time, Kent parted his lips and spoke,

“You really have some balls to tell me that without my money in your hands”

That was when it occurred to Audrey, she had the briefcase in her hands before she fainted and when she woke up??

No!

No!

This can't be happening.... This can't be happening!
