Chapter 1 A Blind Date

A woman in her twenties walked into a top-class restaurant wearing expensive designer clothes and heavy makeup. She was tall and had attractive features that caught people's attention naturally.

Eyeing around the restaurant, she spotted the person she was looking for. An average-looking middle-aged man was sitting at a table.

The woman went straight to him and sat down on the opposite side. The man's eyes lit up. "Are you Miss Leyla Gao?"

"Are you Mr. Peyton Liu?" She responded with another question.

"Yes, I am."

Peyton Liu nodded with satisfaction. He had thought his blind date would look ugly. He didn't expect the rich lady sitting before him to be extremely beautiful.

Peyton handed the menu to Leyla and said, "Miss Gao, what would you like to eat? You can order whatever you want."

Leyla took the menu from him and ordered the most expensive dishes. At last, she ordered a bottle of wine priced at fifty thousand dollars.

A while later, the waiter served their food. Peyton was closely watching her every move and noticed how elegant she looked while eating. Peyton himself did not eat anything, because at that moment, there was only one thought going through his mind. He just wanted to marry this beauty as soon as possible.

After they finished eating, he paid the bill. High expenses weren't a big deal for him. If he could marry this beauty, it didn't matter at all.

Peyton even wanted to take Leyla to buy clothes and jewelry. But when he offered that, she refused and took her leave politely.

As she came back to her two-bedroom apartment with only a few pieces of furniture, she went straight to the mirror and began removing her make up.

Shortly, her delicate face was revealed. She stared at her image in the mirror. Wearing a light blue dress with no make-up, she looked so pure, as if a fairy from the heaven, sacred and inviolable. It was hard to believe she was the same woman with heavy makeup who entered the apartment just a few minutes ago.

"Eliana, I could tell that man became a fool at the very first glance. He was fascinated by you, wasn't he? Why didn't you diddle him more?" Sally Su asked just after Eliana Mo removed her make-up.

Sally was a good friend of Eliana. She worked as a waitress in the restaurant.

Eliana turned around and playfully knocked on Sally's forehead with a smile. "Don't be too greedy. If I had diddled him too much, the police would have found out. I don't want to get in trouble."

Although she needed a lot of money, Eliana didn't want to get imprisoned because of it.

"You are always so careful. The amount of money he spent on you today was far less than one of his expensive clothes. He wouldn't have cared if it was a little more."

Sally took out five thousand dollars from her bag and gave the money to Eliana.

"Here you are. This is your commission for today."

With her mouth gaping, Eliana asked in disbelief, "Five thousand?"

"I'll have two thousand and you five thousand."

"No, I can't take this much. Didn't we decide to split the profit fifty-fifty?"

But Sally forcefully put the money in Eliana's hands and said, "Just take it. You need money for Abby's treatment."

Eliana heart warmed at Sally's generosity. "Thank you." Indeed, she was in urgent need of money to cure Abby. That was why she took the risk of going to deceitful blind dates and earn money.

Her phone rang as she put the money in her purse. She took it out and answered. A woman's voice came from the other end of the line.

Eliana listened to her and then said, "I'll be there on time."

As soon as she hung up, Sally couldn't wait to ask, "Eliana, have you got another deal?"

"Yes, it's the son of MH Club's owner. His name is Marcus Sun. She asked me to meet him in the club."

However, Sally wasn't happy hearing Marcus' name. "Eliana, you can't go. Marcus Sun is an infamous playboy. You might suffer if you take this deal."

"Playboys or gentlemen, they'll easily spend money on me. Don't worry, Sally. I will protect myself."

Sally couldn't change Eliana's mind. With heavy makeup, and wearing the expensive clothes and shoes that she had rented, Eliana went out.

Before she left, Eliana asked Sally to pick up Abby from the kindergarten.

Eliana had many fake IDs to go to these blind dates. Just like Leyla Gao, the daughter of a rich man, there were many others. She changed her identity every time she went on a blind date.
