The rain had just finished watering the whole city with its heavy drops of water. However, it seemed to be still unsatisfied with the results, as the clouds seemed to still be heavy with loads of water waiting for an opportunity to release it again.
Amidst all of this, Catherine, who was determined to get a part-time job offer, asked shops one by one. She was sweating profusely.
A suspicious group of gangster-looking men, passed by along the way and noticed her. One of them was quick to recognize her face. "Look, she seems to be Catherine Blanc!"
Soon enough, due to his loud observation, another man also perceived her identity. "You're right! It is really her!"
Just then, the two men looked at each other with an evil plan circling in their minds, before they turned their heads towards the other companions. "What are you waiting for? Let's go and catch her! Our boss said we can have our way with her if we capture her."
As they heard such words, the gang of malicious thugs was eager to catch her. With great excitement, imagining the things they could do to her, they quickly ran toward Catherine.
Upon seeing them, Catherine also ran immediately. She never thought that a day would come when she would thank heaven for being chased by those loan sharks. Her frequent flee with those people chasing her around made running a lot easier for her now.
The door of Sherton Hotel was opened, and she rushed in without thinking.
However, the group of hooligans did not give up. They continued to chase her.
In just a few seconds, the frightening sounds from them were slowly reaching into her ears which made their voices louder than before. With this current state, she was beginning to panic at the thought of being captured by them. Her face lost its color just when she was thinking how she would end up if that really happened.
At the thought of such horrifying possibilities, she tried to open the door of each room by instinct, wishing that one door would be opened for her to hide safely in one of these suites.
Perhaps it was indeed her unlucky day. She tried to twist some of the doorknobs, but none of them was open. They were locked very well as if they were turning down the idea of helping her.
Just when she was about to give up, there was one knob that actually turned as she twisted it. Without thinking of other things, she immediately went inside the room.
When she went inside, she came face-to-face with a man. The man with a dark face was only covered by a towel on his lower body. He looked apparently stunned at her sudden invasion.
He greeted her with an obvious irritation proved through his displeased frown. He then asked her coldly, "Who are you?"
Catherine had no choice but to hope that there was a little kindness inside of this man in front of her. With her worried look and terrifying voice, she gathered up her courage to ask him for help. "Shh! Quiet! Just for now, please help me!" Seeing how hard she pleaded and how pitiful she looked, Jeff didn't have the heart to turn her down.
Bang! Bang! "Catherine Blanc, come out now wherever you are!" Just then, loud consecutive knocks were heard from a room nearby. The men were knocking very hard on every door as if they would literally knock them down. They were diligently looking for her in every room and place.
Catherine was well aware that it would be the end for her once they captured her. The brave yet hopeless Catherine took off her skirt and threw it somewhere in the bathroom, along with her purse. She was so determined to do anything to get away from those men that she ignored a bit of her dignity.
"What are you doing?" Jeff who had no idea what was going on inside of the woman's head could only watch her while setting up his guard for any wrong move from her.
"Please! Hold me!" Catherine said nothing other than her instructions. She then reached out for his manly neck and circled her arms around it.
"Come on now, woman! Show yourself!" One of the thugs came inside the room and shouted. However, he halted a bit with the sultry scene that welcomed him. A man without any clothes on other than his towel was hugging a long-haired woman. They even seemed to be sharing a kiss right now.
"What are you staring at? Do you have any death wishes?" Jeff's voice roared in the entire room. He moved his body a bit to cover any view of Catherine. His eyes then looked fiercely at the group of men gathering up at the door. His expression was burning with rage and his every word was very stern.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! It must be a mistake!"
The gangster immediately apologized to him. His terrifying manner was nowhere to be found in the presence of Jeff. All of these gangsters panicked and were quick to close the door. Soon, all of them were gone.
After such a frightful encounter, Catherine could now sigh with relief. Only then did she realize that her revealed body was against a half-naked man. The desperate moment of her life had now turned into a memory. However, her great courage was also gone along with it. Her face was now burning as she blushed profusely with her current state. The feeling of embarrassment had now begun to crawl on every part of her body while she wished for her to completely disappear at this moment.
"Thank you!" She shyly uttered those few words out of her mouth.
"Jeff... What are you doing? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
'Oh my goodness! He is with someone in this room, and it's a man!' Catherine could only think about these things in her mind as she turned mute due to this sudden revelation.
Forgetting her previous embarrasmentembarrassment, she fixed her eyes and then fell on the side of the bed.
A man with smooth skin and delicate features leaned against the bed, his lower body covered with a short towel and his eyes squinting at them.
He called the man Jeff. What an intimate address. One had just taken a bath and the other had already taken off. This man even announced that he had waited for Jeff for a long time. That must have meant something right? Crazy ideas were starting to occupy Catherine's mind.
Her head suddenly spun with her intense imagination. It was as if she just had a rupture inside of her head, completely giving up on such pieces of information she just had.
Just by the look of it, these two men seemed to be planning on doing sensual activities and she was just unfortunate enough to see it.
She had finally understood it. This was the reason why he had done nothing to her a while ago. A real man could have taken advantage of her, especially after she took off her own clothes. Moreover, she even drew her lips closer to him, but it was still nothing to him. All this time, he only had a dull look on his face. It turned out that he wasn't attracted to women like her.
"That... I... Sorry to disturb the two of you." She was even more embarrassed after saying those words. And she got herself out of the man's embrace and rushed into the bathroom. She felt really awful at this moment.
On the other hand, far from her thoughts, Jefferey was actually ignited by their physical interaction a while ago. To tell the truth, he was even disappointed that she decided to leave after causing him such excitement. He was also bothered by the weird look she had before storming out of the room.
He looked at her fair and soft back in a daze, and his throat became even drier than before.
Jefferey playfully thought of something in his mind while observing the woman's image blending in the dark. "What an ungrateful and strange woman. I helped her out of her troubles, so shouldn't she repay me too as I go through my own hardships?"
