Chapter 185
Tina clenched her fists in anger.
She knew she had gotten on the bad side of the rich people of high society in Freesia.
If she refused them today, she knew they would still come up with another way to torture her.
What was more, it was true she was broke. Her reputation was in ruins to begin with. It didn’t matter if it got even worse now. She had nothing to lose, anyway. Tina didn’t show them the slightest of emotion as she picked up the ragged shirt.
She looked into the women’s eyes, which were filled with excitement, and said, “Are you sure I can earn money like this? You’re not lying to me, right?”
“Of course, we’re not. Everyone who frequents this nightclub is all rich. They won’t leave without tipping generously.”
“That’s good,” Tina hugged the clothes and turned to leave.
When she showed herself in the crowd, everyone shot her a condescending look. They sized her up and commented rudely among themselves.
“Is she the one? She looks so plain! I don’t think she’s any different from prostitutes!”
“You’re right! Did Frederick get into trouble because of this chick?”
“Are the rumors even true? Did she really make all the men fall head over heels over her?”
“Haha! Young lady, why don’t you perform for us? Let’s see just how you managed to seduce all the reputable men in Freesia! If we’re satisfied with your performance, we’ll tip you a few thousand. What do
you say?”
The men were blatant with their speech, and some of them even tried to molest her.
Tina avoided their touch, which incurred their wrath. “You sl*t, why are you pretending to be innocent? You’ve agreed to this!” “Stop her from leaving!”
“Kneel and apologize to us right now, or we won’t let you off that easily today!” “You hear that? Nobody’s here to save you!” Tina wanted to fight back, but someone forced her to kneel on the ground. The crowd closed in to see what was happening. They were all humiliating Tina, treating her like a complete joke. A man then placed a pile of money on the ground and stepped on it with his expensive shoes. “This money is all yours if you lick my shoe until it’s clean!” All the women were laughing at Tina as well, amused. “Let’s see if she still has the guts to seduce rich men in the future!”
“Quick, take a video and send it to Frederick right now! Let him see just how despicable this woman is!”
While they were about to record the video, a commotion echoed from outside. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“Frederick’s here!” “Wasn’t he grounded by his father? Why is he here?!”
Frederick showed up, bursting into the crowd. Without hesitation, he balled his hand into a fist and punched the man who had forced Tina to kneel on the ground.
“How dare you treat her like this! Do it again, and I’ll kill you!” he threatened, baring his teeth. Then, he pulled Tina’s hand and said, “Let’s go, right now!”
“Stand right there! You’re not allowed to leave!” Fiona was exasperated. She rushed towards them to block their way, panicky. “Frederick, you’re my fiance now! I forbid you to associate yourself with this woman in any way!”
“And as for you! You sl*t, aren’t you worried that your secret might be exposed to the public? If you leave now, I’ll make sure the whole world knows about it!”
Tina shoved Frederick’s hand away.
“Frederick, I won’t leave with you. I am not held here against my will. I’m just here to accompany them while they drink. Nothing bad will happen to me!” She had owed too much to Frederick, and she didn’t want his father to punish him because of her anymore.
Frederick was worried and anxious. Tina was too innocent. Did she really think that they would let her off that easily just because she complied? “What’s your secret? Tell me! I can help you!” “You can’t! Just go! I don’t want your father to find fault with me, either. If that happens, I’ll be in big trouble. Who will save me? I’m just a normal person with no power and connections whatsoever!” Tina blurted, exasperated. She was so, so tired of everything.
Frederick gritted his teeth. Finally, he said, “Fine, I’ll leave. But let me make this clear to everyone. Anyone here who dares to harm Tina in any way won’t have a good ending! I’ll make sure to tear you limb by limb and make your life a living hell!”
The moment he said that, everyone was stunned.
