Chapter 17 - Stand Your Ground
"No, I never agreed to this, Mr. Leo," udina said as she attempted to voice her discontent. However,
she was powerless as four burly men surrounded her.
"Let me go!" she eximed, her face pale with fear. "I would never consent to this; I never intended to
sell myself. You can''t do this to me, this time you really forced me into something I didn''t want," she
added, shaking her head in disbelief.
But Leo appeared proud and excited for the night ahead. After all, if someone was willing to spend a
billion dors on a useless item, how much would they be willing to spend to enjoy udina''s body?
Leo was ustomed to dealing with women like udina, who pretended to value their virtue when
entering the entertainment world. However, he was well aware that it was all a facade; all the girls he
had known had caved into money in the end. There was nothing in the world that could resist the
money.
What was more, udina was doing this tonight to raise arge sum of money to save those foolish
orphans. Leo was positive that udina would be grateful in the end, as such an opportunity was rare
and could only happen once.
After the event, they would both be wealthy and ascend to higher social status. He figured that
apanying someone to sleep for a night was nothing significant, right?
Leo walked up to udina and smiled softly at her, noticing the girl''s sadness and quietly holding back
the anger on her face.
"udina, please just give in. You can make up to 10 billion or more. All you need to do is stay
overnight with someone. Isn''t that a great offer?"
udina shook her head vigorously. "I never agreed to this, Mr. Leo. Please, please reconsider what
you are asking me to do."
udina was really stuck right now. She was helpless and had no control. She was alone, while
everyone around her seemed to be pushing her to do something she didn''t want to do.
Virginity? Is it really so important? Maybe for others, it''s just something casual. But not for udina.
She was a girl who had grown up in an orphanage, someone who had been deprived of affection. She
had learned so much that if someone eventually found her and managed to give her the love she
desired and dreamed of, she was willing to give him anything, including her virginity which may not
seem so important. Still, at least she could offer her purity to the man who would eventually win her
heart.
"udina, you really have to understand that money is akin to love. What do you think love really is?
Do you think someone would pay 10 billion dors without thinking it through? Of course not, they do it
with love, they try to express their love for you. And so, I thought tonight you would find your true love.
Someone who would pay the most to be with you. That''s why it''s called ''making love'', right? Do you
understand what I''m saying?"
Leo said, his face and smile full of reassurance. "Trust me, when this is all over, you''ll thank me for
giving you this opportunity. Do you understand?"
Harry ck quickly assessed the situation and realized that, with his intelligence, he would surely
prevail. He wanted nothing more than to win the night, as well as udina''s body and heart.
However, his opponent, Aston Scott, was proving to be a formidable adversary, as he seemed willing to
spend arge amount of money to win the girl.
Realizing that money wouldn''t be the deciding factor, Harry thought to himself, "If I can''t impress her
with my wealth, I''ll just have to do it with my wit. After all, I''m the most well-spoken person I know." With
a confident smirk, Harry announced, "I''m ready. Let''s see who wille out on top."

[For this, the System will reward you with 100 VIP points!]
Arthur gasped in surprise when he saw a series of transparent text appear before him. He had paid the
full amount for the items he had bid on at the auction that night, and this time he was rewarded with
something he had not expected but was greatly pleased with - 100 VIP points!
[System Comment....]
Arthur nervously thought to himself, "Herees the cringe moment!" He was expecting the system to
deliver ament that would make him feel awkward.
[Host, if it weren''t for your attraction to Ms. udina, you could have earned more VIP points. I mean, I
can understand your enthusiasm, but I can totally tell that her charm and her gorgeous looks are a
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
major source of your motivation. You can''t fool me, Host!]
"Why do you have to bring up this topic? Isn''t it natural for a man to be attracted to someone as
beautiful as her? I''m not wrong and I''m normal too, so don''t joke around with my masculinity. I would
even take udina if I had the chance. At least I''m not someone who is solely driven by lust."
Arthur came to this ce with the intention of collecting VIP points and helping those less fortunate
than himself. However, he was partially motivated by the fact that the person behind the event was
udina, who was stunningly beautiful.
[That''s what makes you stand out from the other men here, Host]
[Now, prepare to face your battle.]
