Sarah was devastated. Her boyfriend cheated on her with her best friend, and they even set her up. Out of despair, she ran away, only to find herself in trouble with a bunch of hooligans. She chased them away with bricks, but one missed and shattered the window of Owen's Maserati. Sarah begged him for mercy, so he offered her to work for him to pay for the damage. She made a deal, but she also fell into his trap. What Sarah owed Owen was not money, but love, and he would risk everything so she could pay him forever.
"Lenore, I'm back!" Sarah Sheng announced as she opened the door and walked into the living room. Putting on her slippers, she heard strange noises coming from the bedroom. Was there a thief in the house?
Picking up the broom behind the door, she tiptoed toward the bedroom and pressed her ear against the door.
"Hale, I love you!"
Upon hearing that, her body stiffened and the blood drained from her face.
Peeking in through the crack, she saw two naked bodies lying on the bed.
This scene shocked her to her core.
She stared at the adulterous twosome miserably. She could hardly believe what she was seeing.
She pushed the door open with great force and it fell open with a loud bang. The two jumped and froze. Hale Chen was so startled that he fell off Lenore Mo.
"Sarah, why are you back so early? Aren't you supposed to be out looking for a job?" Hale Chen asked with a mix of shock and surprise.
Meanwhile, Lenore Mo scrambled to cover her body with the quilt.
This intimate scene made Sarah Sheng furious and hurt. Tears were threatening to spill out of her eyes, but she tried hard to stop them from running down.
Her face was pale and her fingertips were cold. Clenching her fists, she said coldly, "You're messing around behind my back! And now are you annoyed with me for coming back too early? Lenore Mo, Hale Chen, you both are so shameless! Why did you do this behind my back? And how long has this been going on? You've made a fool out of me! How long were you going to hide it from me?"
"No! It's not that. Sarah, listen to me. I still love you," Hale Chen explained, hurriedly covering his hard member with a pillow.
With a bitter smile, Sarah Sheng spun around and said resolutely, "There's no need to explain. We're done! Goodbye!"
Her face was full of despair, but she was an incomparably strong woman as she held her head high in the face of such a heart-wrenching betrayal.
One was her best friend and the other was her boyfriend. She had no idea that they had been sleeping together all this while. 'Sarah Sheng, you are the biggest joke in the world!' she cursed herself in her mind and ran out of the rental house as fast as she could.
She slammed the door hard.
Hearing the sound of the door, Hale Chen came to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream. He grabbed his clothes in a hurry, put them on, and was about to chase after Sarah Sheng.
A look of pure evil flashed across Lenore Mo's face. With a gentle push of her slender fingers, the table lamp on the bedside table fell on the floor. Instantly, it cracked into a hundred pieces.
Hale Chen stepped on one piece with his bare foot and howled in pain.
He collapsed on the bed and raised his foot to see the wound. Hissing in pain, he stared at his bloody foot.
Pretending to be concerned, Lenore Mo shrieked, "Hale, are you okay?"
Hale Chen shook his head. Hopping out of bed, Lenore Mo began to look for the medicine box. When her back was turned towards him, a vicious smile crept up on her face.
Hugging herself as she walked on the street, Sarah Sheng cut a sorry figure.
Her boyfriend and best friend were messing around, and, to add insult to injury, she caught them red-handed. It was a dagger to her heart.
She felt aggrieved. She wanted to wail and mourn for the loss of her love, but she just couldn't cry.
She was so desolate that she didn't even notice that some people had been following her from the moment she ran out of the house.
The hooligans, who had been hired by Lenore Mo, had been waiting at the gate for a long time holding a photo of Sarah Sheng. As soon as she dashed out, they started following her closely.
She heard a whistle from behind.
She stopped and turned around to find a group of hooligans ogling her with lecherous smiles.
Taking a step back, she found herself in a deserted street.
She stared at the approaching hooligans. "What do you want?" she snapped.
"Beauty, why are you crying? Come and play with us. I promise we will make you smile," said the leader of the pack, smoothing his dyed hair.
The other hooligans laughed loudly and started to tease her. "We can make you so comfortable that you will scream, beauty!"
"You will enjoy it so much!"
Sarah stepped back and glared at them. "Don't take another step! Or I'll call the police!"
"Call the police? How will you do that? Come on! Don't joke with us!" Unaffected by her warning, several goons surrounded her.
In a panic, she bit the arm of one thug and struggled. The men bumped into each other during the skirmish.
Grabbing this opportunity, she escaped from the group of goons.
"Go after her!" The hooligans yelled, excited to catch her. The leader gritted his teeth and ran after Sarah.
Her captors were closing in on her and Sarah Sheng was starting to lose hope when she saw an unfinished wall in a construction site. She raced over and started throwing the bricks from the wall at the ruffians.
The bricks rained down on the rogues one by one, taking them by surprise.
They dodged most of the bricks and one of the bricks fell on a car parked nearby, setting off its alarm.
Startled by the loud alarm, the hooligans scattered immediately.
Seeing the hooligans fleeing, Sarah Sheng sighed in relief.
Feeling safe at last, she scanned the area she was standing in. A new building was coming up, which was still under construction, and she had just torn down the wall.
That was not all the damage she had caused. She walked towards the car, whose alarm was still blaring, and saw that several large dents had appeared on the hood of the car, and the windscreen was smashed, forming a spider net-shaped crack.
She had pretty much destroyed the car!
She wondered how much she would have to pay for the damages.
She lowered her head and carefully examined the dents on the hood. When she saw the logo, she almost fainted! Maserati!
'Oh my God!' Her jaw dropped. She couldn't believe what she had done.
Meanwhile, Owen Han strode out, taking off his safety helmet. He looked handsome and elegant.
He was at the construction site to inspect the upcoming real estate project of his company when he suddenly heard his car alarm go off.
He thought it might be a thief, but when he stepped out, he saw a long-haired girl standing beside his car.
The air was whipping her black hair into a frenzy. Her big, watery eyes looked particularly attractive on her delicate face.
He was stunned to see this familiar figure.
He walked over in a trance.
Hearing the footsteps, she turned around and saw a handsome face. He was holding a yellow safety helmet in his hand. The color of the helmet didn't match his expensive suit so she figured out that he wasn't an employee at the construction site.
"Sir, is this your car?" she asked in a low voice, with an apologetic expression.
Her voice made Owen Han regain his composure in an instant. The anxiety and surprise in his eyes gradually faded. Glancing at her indifferently, he pursed his lips, and said flatly, "Yes, it is."
"Sir, I'm so sorry. I have damaged your car by mistake." She had even destroyed the wall of the building.
His silence made her nervous so she sputtered, "But...but I didn't mean it. I was forced to do so. I was being followed by a gang of hooligans, so I had no choice but to throw bricks at them to defend myself. But I accidentally hit your car in the process."
"So what do you plan to do now?" he inquired raising an eyebrow.
"I'll pay you for the damages," she said, lowering her head.
Squinting at the woman in front of him, he asked, "Do you have the money?"
She shook her head sheepishly.
Chuckling, he asked, "Then how are you going to pay me?"
She tried to smile. "How about an IOU?"
"Are you kidding?" he asked, smirking. Surveying his property, he noticed the desecrated wall too. "And the wall is also destroyed by you. You need to pay me for that as well."
"Does this construction site belong to you?" She looked at him up and down. 'He is a rich man! He is a real estate developer.'
"Yes. So you need to pay me three hundred thousand in total."
"Three hundred thousand?" she bleated weakly. Her mouth went dry. She didn't even have thirty thousand, forget three hundred thousand!
She was a student, who had just graduated, and her family was not affluent.
"I can't arrange for much money right now. Can I pay you in installments?"
"How many installments are you planning to repay me in?"
"Um...I... I don't have a job yet. I won't be sure until I find a job," she said as her cheeks flushed red with embarrassment.
His gaze ran up and down her as he scrutinizing the girl in front of her. He noticed that the logo on her backpack.
"Are you a student of A University?" he asked.
"Yes. I just graduated."
"What is your major?"
"Jewelry Design."
"In that case, you can join my company. Jewelry is the main business of the Han Group. You can work in my company to pay off your debts," he said generously as if he was doing her a big favor.
"The Han Group?" It was a large conglomerate, which started with the jewelry business. Later, it delved into real estate, catering, entertainment, advertising, and films.
"You want me to work in the Han Group?" she asked, looking at him in disbelief. "Excuse me, but who are you?"
"Owen Han," he announced, raising his chin arrogantly. "You can work for my company to pay off your debts. After you have repaid me, you can jump to another job or resign as you like. Your position and salary will be decided after the interview. If there is no problem, you can come to the company and start working from tomorrow. But before that, I need all your information. Show me your ID card."
She muttered under her breath, 'Are you afraid that I will run away?'
She would die to get an opportunity to work with the prestigious Han Group.
Still, she obediently took out her ID card and gave it to him. It read, "Sarah Sheng, female, 22 years old." She was born in a small town in the south.
The girl he knew could not be related to her by blood as she was born in the north. They just looked similar to each other. He gazed at her deeply.
