Chapter 71
Patrick looked at Diane. “All right, all right. I won’t pressure you to drink anymore. We’ll have that chat once you’ve finished this glass of wine, and it’ll only take a few minutes. You will then be allowed to leave with your husband and daughter!”
Diane was under the impression that Patrick was the establishment’s owner, since he looked the part due to his fat figure and pot belly. She did not dare to reject his request, so after giving it some more thought, she gritted her teeth and drank her third glass of wine in one gulp. “There. Can we start talking now, Mister Patrick?”
Patrick finally said, “Hehe, you do realize that you’ve eaten close to a hundred and sixty thousand dollars‘ worth of food, right? That’s a lot of money. What I want from you can’t be simpler. I’ll just come right out with it if you don’t mind. Now that you’re here, I want you to do you. You can leave once I’m done!”
He could not help but ogle Diane’s thigh after saying that, and he even hinted as clearly as
possible to her. “Tsk, tsk. You have a fantastic figure. I really do envy Severin for being able to get someone like you.”
Diane was so incensed by his request that she immediately stood up and glared at him. She refused outright. “I’m sorry, but I’m not that sort of woman. Had it been some other request, I might still be able to consider it. But doing it with me? There’s no way in hell I’d say yes to that!” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
“Hahaha, are you sure? Think carefully before you decide. What are your chances of getting out of this place in one piece when One–Eye and his men are all waiting down there?” Patrick chuckled, stood up, and doubled down on his threats. “Make sure you think long and hard, Miss Diane. We’re all adults here. Having sex with me isn’t that big of a deal, right? I promise I won’t get you pregnant. Sound
good? All you have to do is let me have a taste of you, just once! You even get to save a hundred and sixty thousand dollars! Isn’t that a good deal?”
“A hundred and sixty thousand? You’ve got quite the nerve to say that! Did you think we’re stupid enough not to notice that you changed the menu?” Diane’s anger grew with every passing thought. Although she had the hunch that he was up to no good, she was still hanging on one last bit of hope that it might not turn out to be as bad as she imagined.
Alas, the reality was far too cruel. She was firm in her convictions and would never be willing to offer up her body for any amount of money.
“Hehe, I wouldn’t know if you people are stupid, but what I do know is that there are dozens of people down there that you can’t afford to mess with!” Patrick laughed. He looked at Diane’s sexy figure, gulped, and approached her like a pervert. “Be sensible. Don’t make me use force! Can’t you see what’s happening right now? Just do as I say and all will be well!”
Without further ado, he reached out and squeezed Diane’s breasts.
Easton gulped while he hid and observed everything in the dark. He was sure that Diane would give in just so the bill would be waived and her entire family could leave the restaurant safely. Whatever tough attitude she had then was probably nothing but a farce, in his opinion. After all, she was once a rich family’s eldest daughter and she had seen a lot of money. When all of that was taken into account, it was only a matter of time before she would accept her fate.
However, the one outcome that Easton, Jada, and Lucy did not factor in was that Diane would slap Patrick as soon as he stretched his hand out. The slap was so loud it rang throughout the
room! 1
Patrick was stunned and wondered if he was dreaming. ‘How dare she slap me? Did I just waste my breath by telling her all that? Isn’t she woman afraid of being beaten to death by those people below?‘
“F*cking b*tch! How dare you slap me! I might not be from an upper–class family, but I was still raised well. You, on the other, had been abandoned by your family, so you have no f*cking right to hit me! Where’d you get the guts to do that?” Patrick became enraged and shot Diane a glare.” Take your f*cking dress off right now and let me f*ck the shit out of you. If you don’t, it’ll take only a snap of my finger to have your husband and daughter killed!”
“You…”
