Chapter 1 That Man
Chapter 1 That Man
It was already eleven o'clock pm when Elizabeth appeared at the Banquet submissively.
Bodyguards were already waiting for her at the entrance to Marvin's exclusive balcony.
"Hurry up! The boss has been awaiting you for a long time."
They pushed her inside with great force. A strong alcohol fragrance wafted into her nose the moment
Elizabeth regained his balance after almost stumbling.
Not daring to hold her chin too high, she looked around cautiously from the corner of her eyes.
In the luxuriously decorated room, several well-dressed men were sitting on the circular sofa. Seating
himself right in the middle with his legs crossed, Marvin was smoking a cigar, his handsomeness and
sexy curled lips nothing like those of a boss in the underworld.
His deep and cold eyes roamed over Elizabeth, making her badly blush.
Though an ordinary schoolgirl in a clean white cotton dress, Elizabeth, with a drop-dead gorgeous oval
face, was particularly charming.
Feeling confident that she chose the right dress, Elizabeth still couldn't help getting embarrassed under
his gaze.
What a shame!
Seeing Elizabeth remain silent, Marvin produced a slightly evil smile.
He patted the sofa next to him with his big palm, his voice low and magnetic. " Elizabeth, didn't you
come for money? Why are you standing there? Sit here."
Elizabeth didn't dare to disobey him. Otherwise, who knew what she might suffer? She slowly came up
to sit beside Marvin cautiously.
Marvin put his hand on her skirt. Elizabeth screamed in a low voice out of fear.
She held his wrist and shook her head with pleading eyes. "Please, not here..."
Marvin landed a tight slap on her cheek and knocked Elizabeth to the ground directly.
Everyone in the balcony was a bit shocked.
As the supreme boss in the underworld, Marvin was in charge of numerous clubs and followers. As
poker-faced as always, he had never hit a woman violently in public, not to mention his nominal
younger sister.
Elizabeth should be the daughter of his stepmother, a widowed woman who made a sensation in the
whole city by marrying his father.
Irritated for no reason, Marvin clutched her hair to lift her.
He said sarcastically word by word, his lips paled, "They are my business partners. Why are you that
afraid? Are you shy or pretending to be reserved, bitch?"
Elizabeth widened her eyes in horror while shaking her head in despair with tears.
"Please stop, Marvin! I've been obedient enough. I didn't mean to disturb you tonight. The hospital
called me today, saying that if I don’t pay them, my mum could no longer receive the treatment..."
Her mother had been diagnosed with liver cancer after the accident of the Bennett family. Marvin
changed completely just overnight. He not only gave Elizabeth a hard time in public but forced her to
sign a perverted agreement. According to part of the contents, Elizabeth could earn 5,000 dollars after
sleeping with him or being slapped once and she would be paid at the end of each month.
If she refused, her mother's medical fee and her tuition would not be paid.
Always torturing her when they were alone, Marvin had never done it in public.
Helpless and hopeless, Elizabeth was too frightened to even cry.
...
Nobody present had the guts to stop Marvin, thus all finding excuses to leave the balcony. Even his
bodyguards hurried outside.
With the door shut, there were merely two of them staying inside.
Marvin clutched her hair with one hand and unzipped his pants with the other.
Elizabeth had no choice but to follow her fate.
Marvin made love to her violently twice, making her face full of his sperm.
Failing to fulfill his desire, Marvin pinned Elizabeth against the sofa. He lowered his eyes and caught
sight of her bad injuries, swollen and red.
Last night... He had already hurt her.
If he did it one more time, Elizabeth had to be sent to the hospital at once. Therefore, Marvin kicked her
away heavily without letting her know what happened.
Looking condescendingly at her, Marvin reached out to take tissues to clean himself before discarding
them on her in disgust.
He pursed his thin lips, his voice fierce. "Elizabeth, I've been kind enough to you by providing you with
over a hundred thousand every month. The most popular woman at the Banquet can't earn that much
money."
He fished out a big pile of cash from his wallet without making a count and bent to pat her cheek with it.
"You deserve it. Rather than the noble lady Bennett, you're no more than a slut who owes me a huge
debt."
...
Three o'clock in the morning.
Elizabeth finally escaped from the balcony.
She retched in the washroom for half an hour after the harsh sexual abuse.
Not only did she have a sore throat, but her legs were shivering badly.
Marvin did not hurt her as harshly as he did last night.
Elizabeth worked part-time at the cafe across the street outside the school. Exhausted, she fell asleep
quickly after coming back home.
Marvin came back very late, pushed open the door to her room, and forced himself upon her in silence.
Feeling hard to breathe in a daze, Elizabeth tried hard to struggle. Yet, not bothering to say a word,
Marvin forced Elizabeth to lie on her stomach before continuing the sexual abuse.
She screamed as the sharp pain shot up her lower body. Deeply annoyed, Marvin covered her mouth
with his palm so tightly that she was almost suffocated. In the morning, Elizabeth felt her legs too
painful to carry her body. She took the medicine and went to bed after bathing herself, too tired to
attend the classes in the afternoon.
When she went outside, it was too late to take a taxi. Not a single car passed by in a long period.
Elizabeth shivered as a gust of freezing wind blew past her face. Suddenly, there came two deafening
sounds.
Weren't they gunshots?
Startled, Elizabeth hurriedly hid in the corner.
A bloody scene came into her sight before long.
A man in a dark green trench coat had a gun in his hand, while the man in the opposite was lying on
the ground, blood gushing outside his leg.
He screamed painfully, "Mr. Williams, please spare my life. I didn't mean to betray you. Working for you
for that long..."
He was shot on his head before he finished speaking.
Having never witnessed such a fearsome scene, Elizabeth could not help but cry out. She hurriedly
covered her mouth but it was too late...
The so-called Mr. Williams turned to the corner.
Elizabeth tried hard to run but end up being seized on her shoulder and taken back to the man by his
two followers.
In the moonlight, the devil-like man looked at her with a smile, his thin lips moving slightly. "Send her
into my car."
Elizabeth was forced to board the car by one guy. The other suggested, his tone apprehensive.
"Master, this woman saw you kill the guy..."
Mr. Williams remained calm. "I will handle it myself."
Elizabeth huddled in the car while shivering badly. She knew she had offended someone she couldn't
afford to.
The killer, with an extraordinary aura, was no less horrible than Marvin.
She must be doomed. At the thought of her poor death, Elizabeth couldn't help but tremble.
How down was she on her luck!
Why would she witness a murder on earth?
She mustn't die like this! Her mum still needed taking care of.
Elizabeth gritted her teeth, almost bursting into tears out of great fear.
Mr. Williams got into the car and locked the door. He then reached out to unbutton her coat. Stunned,
Elizabeth thought she would be raped before getting killed.
Staring at her panicked eyes, Roberts suddenly laughed. "What is your name? What did you see just
now?"
Not daring to say his name, Elizabeth said with a shiver, "I did not see anything and I promise to keep it
a secret! Please don't kill me!"
Roberts twitched his mouth. "Afraid of death? Satisfy me, and maybe I will spare your life."This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
