Amon was the first to guide Rebecca to sit down; he knew she was pretty used to places like this because in the past, during high school and early college days, he wouldn't care about the cost and brought everyone in their circle to study or if they had a class project in the past.
"Do you still like the same things? This place only does light meals; it was a little sudden, so that I couldn't arrange anything better."
He smiled, moving to his side of the table and sitting down and tapping on the ordering tablet; his experienced fingers ordered the things he remembered that she liked most, some that Rebecca would refuse due to their price in the pace.
"It's pricey..." She said with a soft voice and a slightly apologetic smile.
The prices were relatively high for an average family; some were over $100 for a simple sandwich platter and drink, but these costs were nothing for Amon.
"Don't worry; I've already ordered most of the things you used to like but never ordered."
"Thank you, but don't spend too much money..."
"Haha, don't worry; it's not like I'll ask for your body in return. I've already ordered them alone, so please feel free to eat what you wish to try. Otherwise, it'll be wasted." Seeing her cheeks turn pink at his words; he grinned as he placed his hand over hers, causing her to blush more.
"What? It's just that I want to see how your taste has changed, and I know you haven't tried most of the more expensive food here before."
"You're right. I haven't tried anything here except for the sandwiches."
"Well, now that I've placed the order, care to tell me what that message was about? You worried me; you ghosted and shut me out of your life for your boyfriend. Now you need help?" He winked at her as he placed his hands on the table, resting his elbows on the edge.
Rebecca blushed deeply and averted, "Yeah... well, I'm sorry... He always saw you as some threat; I mean, I understand... you were my first kiss and a few other things... but... I told him my problem, and he keeps delivering pizza... spending his wages on those stupid gotcha games with the lewd pictures of anime girls.."
Her posture became more relaxed as he listened to her pouring out her woes; although they didn't touch on the main subject, he pushed over the warm cocoa with one sugar and caramel syrup which she always loved, so she could hydrate and take a breather.
"I guess there's trouble in paradise after all? How does he know we did things, though? I would have been fine if you never told him. Some men are obsessed with being a woman's first for everything.."
Bzzt-Bzzt!
Amon's phone began to vibrate in a specific pattern; this was his mother's message, so he lifted his hand with an apologetic smile.
"Alice?" Rebecca's voice sounded as if she sounded a little strange, maybe jealous of the current situation, but Amon wouldn't read too far into the mood of a woman on the edge of collapse.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Nah, not that woman, it's my mother. She tells me my maid picked up the contracts for my new business."
- From Mother Dearest <3
My little stud, who was that sexy woman earlier, insisted she was just a maid but checked all the documents for you, even pointing out some errors.
Despite being a little older than you, is that woman your new maid? Be good to her; she seems to be smitten with you. She reminds me of an exciting woman who once saved my life...
P.S. What did you do to change that Murdock girl's mind? She sent a contract to work with our company, and you were the sole owner of the shares.
Is she trying to trap you? But our lawyer looked at it, and it's legitimate; even if the business fails, why is that girl willing to lose millions for you now? Did you bang her well? Fufu~
P.P.S. Mommy misses you... have dinner with me soon, Mwah mwah!
-
Amon's face twitched reading the message, and half wanted to call Alice to find out what bullshit she was doing; he already received their agreed contract, so what was this bonus? Does she trust him so little that he might return on the deal... Stupid woman... But all the help he could get was worth it and made him smile slightly.
"Good news?"
"Still, it's amazing you used to seem so smitten by that Alice girl, always courting her despite never getting anywhere."
His lips opened before thinking as he tapped the reply to his mother.
"Well, the girl I loved somehow started dating another guy."
"Gufu!?" Rebecca almost spat her entire mouth of cocoa all over the table, her eyes watching the handsome man as he typed a message back to his mother, the smile on his face the same as when he used to study in class and get the top grades.
"Haha, drink slowly. It should have been obvious; you were a little dumb in certain places."
"Well... back then we..."
"Ah, I know; my mother told you to back off, right?"
"Mmm..."
"Forget it, that's in the past, and I can't believe you told him you've held my cock in your throat, haha I bet that guy was furious."
Amon's laughter filled the room; it was bright and charming as Rebecca watched him feeling a strange sense of awe; he was different from the past, although he was rich and very loud in the past. Now he wasn't just flaunting his money, but also his muscular and handsome body and a warm, sunny sense of humour, even laughing about their dark history together.
"Boring..."
"Oi!"
"I didn't tell him that far..... idiot...."
He saw that she was more relaxed, stirring the last of her cocoa, playing with her long bangs, curling them around her finger as she stole looks at him, sometimes pulling out her tongue or mocking him.
"So... you've loosened up. What do you need from me? The girl that rejected my confession?" Amon asked, not like a kind-hearted friend, but a business partner, or he spoke with a stranger asking for money. He wasn't truly going to reject her, but if she couldn't have the confidence to ask him honestly, then this girl wouldn't be able to grow and advance into the future even if he vanished.
"That...."
"Don't waste my time Miss Mayer."
[Why so harsh when you are dying to help her, every fibre of your body thought of her after your mother...]
'Shut the fuck up; what does a heartless machine or make-believe existence know about the human heart.'
Amon ignored the nagging thoughts and kept looking straight ahead, staring at Rebecca while she stared back, waiting for his answer as if he were a businessman negotiating a trade.
"How old are you again?"
"21"
"What is your major?"
"Business Management..."
"Experience?"
"None!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Are you a virgin?"
"Yes!"
"Do you think I am handsome?"
"Yes!..... Wait..... what were those questions!?"
"Ah, sorry. You were just so cute, and it was amusing to test you... so he hasn't slept with you yet... such a waste, you are so perfect."
Rebecca began to gulp down her warm cocoa, no longer steaming, as she looked towards Amon, her green eyes filled with a sense of embarrassment, feeling shame for replying that way.
"it's your mother, right? You are between a rock and a hard place, having no choice but to seek help from me, failing that you would even sell your first time?"
Her hand holding the cup trembled, his eyes watching her narrowed like a snake eyeing its prey.
Knock-Knock!
As planned, the door opened with two sandwich platters, fancy side dishes and a cute prawn cocktail in a beautiful crystal glass. Amon leaned back, opening his arms as he motioned for the pretty waitress to begin placing the dishes down; her trolley also with a small bottle of non-alcoholic wine, different from the one with Alice; this was filled with more tang and zest, almost sour wine with a dry aftertaste.
"Here's something hot," the young woman whispered nervously and timidly as she placed the drinks down, making sure to avoid any contact with the man sitting next to her; she had seen him many times before but never really talked to anyone else besides the customers, the fact he could give her 5,000 as an apology caused her to want to test him, her uniform slightly opened and skirted higher than usual. Still, his eyes never wandered apart from the initial look.
But his smile was so charming!
Clack!
When the door closed, he picked up a tuna sandwich; the bread used was soft and sweet and melted into his mouth, the thick taste of tuna from the southern sea, usually a rare catch, but that's why it cost extra; he wanted to taste the sea bream salad but saw the cute girl who used to be so reserved now was wolfing it down as she might die in the next moment.
Amon smiled at her slight change; her pink cheeks made him want to tease her, though before he could speak, she slammed down her utensil with a thud and looked at him with determined eyes.
"you are right!" Rebecca almost roared.
"I am so screwed; there is a bill for over 50,000, then the costs for her hospitalisation after the operation and medicine that will never end... What am I supposed to do? I only graduate in a few months... a mere graduate, as if she has that kind of money? I have 47,000 in savings from my entire university and college life, and thanks to your help too. Those part-time jobs that paid WAY too much for a mere tutor!"
"Amon... what do I do?"
"You are completely right...! If you cannot help me, I did entertain the thought of selling my body! Haha, some people want to pay me 20,000 for my first time... with that, I can help Mom!"
"Please.... help me... I beg you..."
