Chapter 85


    In the corridor, I finally get rid of Harrison''s hand. But I lost my bnce, and am about to hit my back


    against the wall.


    I close my eyes, ready to ept the pain.


    But someone grabs my hand and puts me into his arms. Then a voice sounds. "It''s all right."


    It''s Harrison. He''s voice is low, maic, and a little cold. I feel rxed in an instant.


    "Thank you," I say.


    I close my eyes with relief and lean on his shoulder, feeling an urge to cry.


    I used to cry only when I was in extreme pain, and most of the time I was strong. But since Harrison


    showed up, I''ve cried more times than I can count.


    I always act like a cranky crybaby in front of him.


    Feeling very tired, I wrap my arms around his waist. His embrace always gives me an inexhaustible


    sense of security. "Can we talk in peace?"


    "I''d love to."


    His answer gives me my first real smile of the night.


    I stands up and looks at him. "I just want to have a nice chat with you. It''s enough."


    Then, he tucks my hair behind my ear, and his eyes are fixed on my face.


    My heart is racing and my face is slowly burning. There''s so much I want to say to him.


    "I almost fell for your trap."


    I''m stunned. ''What does he mean by that?''


    "You lost me. Can you be more specific?" I ask.


    He gently caresses my cheek. There''s a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. "If I hadn''t seen you


    with that man, I might have been deceived. You''re getting better at lying."


    "What?" The sweetness disappears in an instant.


    He spread out his hands and says in a low voice, "Maybe our meeting was part of your n. You


    left me to get more out of me, didn''t you?"


    "In case the n fails, you start looking for another target. If I hadn''t been there, you and that man


    would have been sleeping together."

    His words are like knives to my heart. Yet he


    keeps smiling as if these hurtful words were not his.


    I finally understand one thing. In his heart, I stayed with himpletely for money. Maybe I''m no


    different than those whores to him.


    We have same purpose, don''t we?


    Now he believes I''m a schemer. I was just ying hard to get when I gave the ck card back to


    him. My ultimate goal is to let him support me all my life.


    Looks like he''s been watching a lot of TV. I shake my head with a smile and speak helplessly, "Then


    why are you here? You want to bang me again?"


    "I''m here to see how shameless you can be!" He says with a sneer.


    "So, are you satisfied with my performance?" I may look calm, but my heart is bleeding.


    Every time I think I can take him to the next level, he hits me in the head and wakes me up.


    And when I decide to give up, hees to me again and ignites my hope. If this is a game, I''m


    ready to quit.


    Maybe he thinks it''s interesting, but I can''t stand it anymore.


    Hearing this, he says calmly, "Chelsea, you


    seem so innocent, but what you do is disgusting."


    "So you should stay away from me! Stop wasting your time." I respond with a smile.


    His expression suddenly changes, and then he grabs my shoulders tightly with both hands. "You


    finally admit it!"


    There''s anger and disappointment in his tone.


    But why? Isn''t that what he wants? He finally gets rid of me.


    "Enough." I feel tired. "Let''s stop here. The game is over."


    "Don''t you dare!" He gnashes his teeth.


    We look into each other''s eyes.


    Suddenly, there''s a sound of opening the door. As soon as I turn my head, I''m dazzled by a ray of


    light and close my eyes instantly.


    "Are you making a TV show? Can you just let me get some sleep?" The angry male voice sounds.


    Slowly getting used to the light, I smile to the man. "I''m sorry, we are leaving now."


    "That''s good. Be calm, young people." With that, the man closes the door.


    The corridor returns to quiet. Harrison keeps silent. I helplessly shake my head and


    chuckle. "Is this the first time you''ve been scolded?"


    "I''ve had a lot of new experiences with you."


    After that, he lets go of me and turns to leave.


    I didn''t stop him, and I don''t want to know what he meant by that. As I said, this game is over.


    That man was right. We''re not making a TV show and we should be calm about everything in our


    life.


    When I''m in the elevator, I begin to n what to do tomorrow. Get a job, go to the supermarket, live


    life to the fullest... It was actually lucky for me to meet Harrison, and now I need to move on.


    I will remember how much he helped me and changed my life. He''s brought me more than I ever


    imagined.


    Opening the door, I fumble for the switch. Suddenly, someone pushes me into the house and closes


    the door.


    "Is it fun, Callen?"
