“Zacharias, you're a jerk,” cursed Shirley. Zacharias was stunned for a few moments before he chuckled in amusement. “Someone seems disappointed.” Shirley got up, pushed him away, and went back to her room barefoot. Zacharias sighed wearily. He knew he was a jerk. He flirted with her, but he couldn't finish the job. It wasn't like he didn’t want to. He couldn't, nor did he have the courage to. The more he loved her, the more he couldn't bring himself to touch her. He didn’t want to hurt her. Yet, he couldn't deny that she was deadly attractive to him. The most he could do to at least alleviate his desire was to flirt with her. Otherwise, he'd go mad with want one day.
Shirley felt refreshed after her bath. She lay on her bed, her mind occupied by Zacharias. His elegance, his regality, his confidence when he spoke, his imperturbable gestures... Everything about him was attractive to her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the end, Shirley realized she was just a superficial woman who loved Zacharias for his looks and smoking hot body.
Someone else was not feeling well that night, either. Imogen. She went back to her room, simmering and stewing from the scenes she saw earlier. Everything Shirley was enjoying was in stark contrast to her life. Zacharias loved Shirley more than everything. He held her in his arms oh-so-gently, caring not for the opinion of the world.
He only had eyes for Shirley.
She already has a good family and powerful supporters. Why does God give her a perfect man on top of that? Can't she at least have one flaw? Did God even close a window for her? Why can’t | have sof her good luck? God is so stingy.
A message popped up on Imogen’s screen. She picked up her laptop and checked the text. It was from her mafia friend. They asked, ‘Nora, we're out of jobs here. You got anything for us? If it's a nice one, we can split the loot with you fifty-fifty.
Imogen stared at the message, somewhat caught off guard. Then, she had the perfect idea. She sneered as she texted, ‘I have just the thing for you. But | wonder if you have the gut to take it.! ‘There's nothing we won't do.” [x] Imogen quickly sent them Shirley’s photo. She texted, ‘This girl's worth a billion. Kidnap her, and you can ask for that much. Just giveten percent of the earnings. I'm fine with it, she added, ‘and it’s a billion. Remember that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘Whoa. Who's this girl? What's so special about her? ‘She’s more important than you can imagine And she comes from a powerful family back where | cfrom.
Also, she’s not a regular girl. She can fight. Do you still want to take this job? ‘We have mercenaries. Don’t worry about it.
Imogen texted, ‘Sure. Get ready for the job. I'll text you when it’s time.” Imogen deleted the chat history and closed her laptop. Ah, | see now. | know what's the window God closed for her. She has no idea she has a snake for a friend. She’s been too sheltered and has no idea how evil this world can be. One simple act is enough to gain her friendship.
“I wonder if Zacharias will still like you if you're... sullied.” Imogen smiled maliciously. She knew the nightmares waiting for Shirley if she fell into the hands of these people. | can’t believe Zacharias ignored me. Am | that negligible in your eyes? Fine. I'll send the love of your life into hell, then. Ill watch the whole thing. Up to its grisly end.
