Chapter 14 Blood Roses
I submitted my resignation again, angering Mr. Galer. This time, he directly presented two options: sleep with him or produce 200, 000.
Resolutely, I chose the second option. Jamie became a bright light in my gloomy heart, and I felt a newfound confidence.
I took out 100, 000 yuan from my bag and threw it onto Mr. Galer’s desk.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“The other 100, 000 is offset from the youth I spent with you. We are strangers from now on.”
Under Mr. Galer’s dark gaze, I turned and walked away.
The moment I stepped out of the company’s gate, I took a deep breath.
I never expected that one person’s appearance would make me so brave.
The best feelings are nothing but freedom and love.
I walked towards Jamie, who was lazily leaning against the railing with his hands in his pockets, his eyes full of tenderness and affirmation.
After bidding farewell to Jamie at the apartment building, it was already dark. I looked up at the lit light in my room, preparing to face the impending storm.
Using the key to open the door, I received a harsh slap from my mother, filled with anger.
Immediately afterward, Kelly rushed out and grabbed my hair, cursing with offensive words.
“Daring to seduce my man, you shameless mistress!”
“Don’t think we don’t know how you got that money, shameless creature!”
…
When they wanted to continue hitting me, I didn’t endure it as usual.
I grabbed their arms and fiercely shook them off.
“Enough!” I shouted loudly.
My mother and sister, who had never seen me resist, were startled by this shout and instinctively withdrew their hands.
“Jamie is someone I knew first.”
“And all the money I earned, every time, was given to you! If I have no money, you all treat me like I’m dead.”
“You only know how to hit me, scold me. When I couldn’t even afford a meal, the first time a man violated me, where were you? Do you know how helpless and painful it was for me at that time? I was so young.”
“Have you ever cared about me? Treated me like a daughter or a sister?”
“You just treat me like a money-printing machine.”
Trembling, I yelled out the grievances buried in my heart for many years.
Pointing to the door, I made a firm decision: “Get out. From now on, I, Olivia, sever all ties with you!”
While closing the door, I threw a sentence at my mother, revealing a secret I had suppressed for many years.
“You always blame me for causing my father’s death, but did you know it was Kelly who wanted dessert? It was her who forced me to make that call to Dad.”
“Why do you hate me so much?”
