Chapter 3 The Master Wants to See You

At three in the morning, everything finally came to an end.

Octavia was already exhausted and fell asleep.

But even after the drug effects wore off, her petite body still clung tightly to the man's embrace.

Curled up, her small face buried in his broad chest.

This adorable and affectionate appearance satisfied the man who had just been satiated, causing him to narrow his long and deep eyes with contentment.

At that moment, a ray of moonlight shone in from the window, falling on octavia's small face covered by her black hair.

Khalid suddenly realized that he had never really taken a good look at the woman's face.

He lifted his hand, which had been resting on octavia's waist, and used his slender fingers to push aside a strand of hair that was covering her face.

Suddenly, the phone rang urgently.

In the darkness, Khalid frowned unhappily.

He withdrew his big hand that was hanging by Octavia's face and picked up the phone that was placed aside.

"Hello."

"Master Lee, it's good to know that you're safe. We have received your location, and the car is parked downstairs. There is an urgent matter in the Imperial City..."

Noah, Khalid's subordinate, spoke on the other end of the phone.

Something very important had happened in the Imperial City that required him to rush over immediately.

He hung up the phone.

Khalid lowered his eyes and looked at the little woman who was sleeping soundly in his arms in the darkness.

He was about to pick her up.

"Mmm...I'm so tired, don't...don't move me..."

Octavia resisted with a soft groan, and her small hand opened the man's palm, not wanting to be moved, and her face was even more hidden in the blanket.

Seeing that she was so tired that she didn't even open her eyes, the man could only put a black obsidian ring with his body temperature on octavia's ring finger.

"Be good and wait for me here. Someone will come to pick you up later."

*

One week later, at the Jones family.

"Uncle, aunt, open the door! You promised me that you would save my mother as long as I agreed to go on a blind date at the Nightshade Club! Why did the hospital call and say that you not only withdrew all the medical expenses, but also asked to remove my mother's oxygen tube... Open the door, Uncle! You can't be so heartless!"

In the pouring rain In the pouring rain of the evening, octavia knocked loudly on the Jones family's door.

Finally, someone pushed the door open from the inside.

Aunt Cynthia, with an impatient expression, appeared before her.

"Octavia, you shameless person, how dare you come to ask for medical expenses?"

"Look at the news! Since last Friday, after you met with Mr. Johnson, he withdrew all investments in our Martin family! Now, Mr. Johnson is nowhere to be found, and he doesn't even answer our calls! It must be because you offended him during your blind date! Do you think you're still a young lady? You're just a slut! Mr. Johnson is willing to have you, it's your good fortune. You won't lose anything by sleeping with him that night, why are you pretending to be a virtuous woman?"

"What did you say?"

Octavia's face turned pale, suddenly understanding everything.

It turned out that everything was not a coincidence.

Her uncle and aunt knew everything, and they knew that Mr. Johnson would...

"You persuaded me to go on a blind date that day, and you said you were worried that I would have no one to take care of me, and that I should find a good man to marry, so that my mother could rest assured. Were these words all lies? You...you never treated me as a relative, you just wanted to sell me and exchange investments for the company!"

"It's obvious that Mr. Jo has taken a liking to her," Skyler thought to herself.

No wonder her aunt even spoke highly of a man like Mr. Johnson, who was sleazy and despicable and old enough to be her father.

Thinking back to that night, when she was drugged by Mr. Johnson in her coffee during a blind date, she realized that if it hadn't been for a stroke of luck and running into the man she had met a year ago, she might have been taken advantage of by Mr. Johnson.

Unfortunately, even though she had managed to escape Mr. Brown's clutches, she had once again slept with the stranger who had promised to take responsibility for her after their first encounter.

But just like a year ago, he had disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a black obsidian ring octavia didn't even know what he looked like.

It wasn't until she got home and checked her body in the mirror that she saw the ambiguous marks left all over her skin, evidence of their night together.

"Are you people even human, Aunt? Do you know that it was because of your arrangement that I met another man at the club that night, and he..." Octavia trailed off.

"What man? What are you talking about?" Cynthia asked, sensing a flaw in octavia's words.

"Fine. You shameless slut. Instead of accompanying Mr. Johnson, you went and messed around with some wild man. No wonder Mr. Johnson is disgusted with us! Let me tell you, the Jones family has supported you and your mother for so long, but we've done all we can. From now on, we won't give a penny to your mother's medical treatment, and you can get out of the Jones family."

Cynthia turned around and shouted at her husband Luke, who was standing behind her, to throw octavia's luggage out.

A few seconds later, a black plastic bag containing a few pieces of clothing was thrown at Octavia by Cynthia.

"Get out of here, or our good daughter Isabella will come back and see you here, bringing bad luck!"

Octavia's eyes turned red, she flashed with anger.

If it weren't for her mother Ava waiting for her in the hospital, she would fight this aunt to the death.

Octavia picked up the bag from the ground, her face slightly darkened. "Wait, something's missing! What about the bottle of Holy Tears of the Divine Eye my mother left me? Why isn't it in here?"

The Holy Tears of the Divine Eye perfume was the only remaining bottle in the world, and it was her mother's favorite fragrance.

When Ava was still a wealthy Madam, she bought it from an overseas auction house.

Mom loved the scent she sprayed on herself, saying it suited her and reminded her of her youth. So every time she visited Ava at the hospital, she would spray a little on herself. The last time she sprayed The last time she sprayed it was a week ago when she went to the club.

She hadn't been back to the Jones family for several days, let alone touched that bottle of perfume.

"What holy tears? I don't know what you're talking about!" Cynthia's face flashed with guilt.

"Never mind, I'll go in and find it myself."

"You dare!" Cynthia pushed Octavia.

In the scuffle, she caught a glimpse of a "shine" under octavia's collar.

"Wait a minute, you dead girl, what good thing are you wearing around your neck?"

Cynthia was quick to act, grabbing the necklace from octavia's neck and breaking it.

A black obsidian ring studded with diamonds fell into "Wow, you rotten thing, you secretly hid such a good thing!"

"No, give it back to me! It's mine!"

That ring was left to her by the man at the Nightshade Club!

This was the only clue to finding that man.

"Get out! You and your mother owe the Jones family so much money, this ring will be used as payment! If you dare to fight me for it, I'll kill you!"

Cynthia kept slapping Octavia's face, pushing her out of the Jones family.

"Bang" The iron gate slammed shut in front of Octavia.

The rain was getting heavier.

Neighbours around were poking their heads out, pointing and laughing at Octavia with a swollen face, being kicked out of her home.

For a moment, Octavia felt nothing but despair and misery.

The man she thought would take responsibility for her had deceived her .The family members she thought she could trust were heartless.

And her mother was still waiting for her to save her life.

What should she do...

Just then, two dazzling headlights suddenly lit up behind her.

A black Rolls-Royce pulled up behind Octavia.

A man got out the car.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Octavia? Our master wants to see you."

----

half an hour later.

Octavia was brought to the top floor of a luxury office building in the city center where the land is very expensive.

Ever since her parents divorced, she and her mother were kicked out of the house to live with others, and they have never

been to such a high-end place again.

Just downstairs, she noticed that the people here were all dressed as business elites.

The indifference emanating from those people was somewhat similar to that of the man not long ago.

It's just that the man's aura seems to be more fierce and cold.

Thinking of that night in the clubhouse a week ago, being pushed behind the door by that tall and straight man.

Octavia's hands clenched together awkwardly.

She didn't even know who the man who took her first night was...

Suddenly, a huge shadow cast in front of Octavia, blocking all light sources above her head.
