Alline married into the Mo Family, benefitting both families' business aspirations. Yet, her groom didn't even show up for the wedding, and she had to face all the guests' mockery alone. She had never even met her newly-wedded husband and only knew him from rumors: Mr. Hiram's legs were disabled, and he was known as an inhumane and capricious man. But who was this man who hugged her every night? And who spoke cold indifferences in her ear? "Alline, you ruined my life! Let's go to hell together!" A terrifying secret lay concealed within the Mo Family. In the end, she chose to break away, hoping to escape from him, but she did not know that waiting for her was an even greater disaster.
The night was incredibly intoxicating.
The Sexy Club was as busy as it always was. Young men and women crowded under the stage, giving out low whistles at the dancers on the stage. The dancers were as enchanting as they were gorgeous. They had attracted every eye in the club.
The most striking one was the girl dancing in the front row. She was dressed in all red, looking like a seductress on the prowl. The fabric wrapped around her, showcasing her slender waist and long legs. One thing that made her stand out was the exquisite mask hiding her face.
Everyone wanted to see the woman behind the mask, just to have a peek at her attractive face, but unfortunately, no one had ever seen her take it off.
The only thing they knew about her was her name – Sharon.
Every night in the Sexy Club, Sharon would dance around for an hour before leaving the club at ease. She wouldn't stay longer for anyone, not even for a second.
As an independent woman, Sharon was free to come and go as she pleased. Since someone was protecting her, she also didn't suffer from any bar fights. Ever since she showed up, no one was able to see her face.
The woman never tried to fix herself in anyway, but she still stood out from the rest.
There was something about her that seemed so tempting.
In a VIP box on the second floor, opposite to the stage, sat a man in a wheelchair. He looked extremely handsome under the dim light. However, his eyes were as cold as ice as he gazed at Sharon, the enchanting woman on stage.
He didn't bother to look at anyone else.
All of his focus was on her.
At that time, a young lady came into the box. Her eyes were as sharp and as distinguished as the stars. She poured herself a glass as asking, "What brings you here?"
The man clinked glasses with her, raising his head. "When will you come home?"
"Aren't you boring?" The young lady pouted, her voice laced with cynicism.
"Grandpa wants you back, you know." He put down his glass on the table, frowning.
The young lady leaned back, rolling her eyes. "And I haven't had my fun yet. I'll come back when I'm done."
"How long are you still going to hide, Cathy?" he said helplessly.
"As if you haven't done some fair share of hiding yourself, Hiram." Cathy Xiang stared in satisfaction as his face darkened at her words. There was silence for a moment as the tension between them grew even thicker.
She walked over to him, wrapping her arms around him. "From what I can see, you're still boring as hell. I don't know how anyone can stand you!"
Hiram Mo rolled his eyes, finally calming down. "Whatever, I've told you what I needed to tell you. You can do as you want."
Cathy Xiang raised her eyebrows at his words. "So Hiram, what brings you here?"
Hiram Mo frowned. "It's none of your business."
"You do know that I'm an adult now right? At least tell me something!" Hiram Mo held the armrests of his wheelchair, his fingers trailing on the wheels. Without another word, he pushed forward.
The bodyguards who'd been waiting outside for him, rushed towards him and pushed him out of the room. "It's time for you to go home, Cathy," he said lightly.
"Fine." The smile on her face faded as she stared at his retreating figure. Without another word, she turned to the man beside her. "It seems no one knows I'm here. Know which room he stays in and ask someone to serve him."
'Hiram doesn't like to come to the HC City, so why does he come here? Is it really because of that matter?' Cathy Xiang got lost in her thoughts.
At that time, the music in the dancing floor was slow, and the other dances started grinding on the stage. Sharon was already ready to leave the stage. Even with the crowd shouting for an encore, she blew them a kiss and left without hesitation.
As soon as she headed out of the stage, Sharon saw Amanda hurrying towards her. "Something happened to Nancy, but I couldn't find Mr. Austin! Sharon, please save her!"
Her eyes widened. "What happened?"
"I don't know, but Mr. Wade and his men came again. Nancy went to sell wine but she offended Mr. William. Let's save her." Amanda and Sharon were close. She knew that Nancy was also friends with Sharon, so she came to tell her.
Sharon didn't even have time to change her clothes as they rushed out. Just as they were about to head upstairs, they were blocked by two bodyguards. Sharon gazed at the man behind all the guards, raising her eyebrows. "Mr. Wade, what brings you here?"
'He really is a lustful man. Isn't he tired of seeing me already?'
Amanda pulled Sharon's arm. "They were the ones who took Nancy in the private room." Sharon patted her arm. "I'll handle this. Go back first."
Sharon waved dismissively.
Wade Xu stared Sharon down without blinking his eyes. He smiled lightly. "I've already told you I like you, dear. Tell me, how much does it take for you to go out with me?"
Sharon dug her fingers into her palms. "Although I'm flattered, Mr. Wade, I'm not short of money. How about save it for later?"
She pretended that she was about to leave. However, just as she was about to go, Wade Xu held her waist. Although masked, the displeasure was evident in her eyes. "Come on. Just one night!"
Sharon's eyes glinted. "And, what if I say no?"
