- That's right! With a strict boss like you, everyone is scared and forced to work hard. If you came here just to judge my meal, you can go home. I'm poor so I just eat like this, I already feel good.
- Do you have anything else to eat at home besides instant noodles?
- There's nothing else.
- Then cook me a portion of instant noodles like yours. I haven't eaten yet, I'm hungry.
Elena rolled her eyes at the man sitting opposite. After midnight, you still ran to her house to eat instant noodles? Why doesn't he go home to eat expensive food with his wife? So annoying!
Mikey saw Elena keep looking at him without doing anything else, raised his finger and flicked her forehead, and said:
- Cook instant noodles for me, you see that I'm handsome, so you look so passionate.
Elena was startled, she raised her hand to rub her painful forehead, then she grimaced, stood up, took a box of noodles, poured the hot water in, and placed it in front of him, her voice grumpy:
- I suddenly lost a box of instant noodles for strangers.
- You should not be stingy, is there anything else in your mind besides money? Or do you just have an empty brain in your head?
Elena glared at Mikey. She didn't bother arguing with him anymore but lowered her head to eat her instant noodles.
- This is my first time eating instant noodles!
Mikey exclaims proudly.
Even though she heard him speak, Elena didn't say anything. Why should a rich man like him eat instant noodles?
- Will you be my lover!
Mikey looked at Elena seriously.
This time, Elena couldn't see him as invisible anymore. She had just taken a sip of instant noodle soup, and the sour taste shot straight to her nose, making her cough, her face red, and tears flowed out.
Mikey stood up, He poured a glass of water and placed it in front of her, his calm voice spoke again:
- Why are you so surprised? Didn't you ever sell your first to me?
- Is your brain waterlogged from eating instant noodles? In the middle of the night you ran to my house to eat on duty, after eating, what crazy talk are you talking about?
Elena angrily slammed the table, she pointed at the man's face and scolded him.
Mikey, on the other hand, is very calm.
He leisurely ate the whole box of instant noodles and drank the whole water of instant noodles. Then he wiped his mouth with his hand, stood up, picked up a box of instant noodles, and threw it in the trash. Having done all that, he went to the only sofa in the room and sat down.
Elena grumbled:
- It's late, you go home and let me sleep.
- You have not responded to my request.
Elena gets angry:
- Pervert! What kind of person do you think I am to go out with a married man?
I am poor, but not lowly.
Get the hell out of my house now and never appear in front of me again.
If you are rich, go find someone in need and offer to buy and sell sex.
Despite being scolded by Elena, there was no anger on Mikey's face. He slowly picked up the glass of water to drink, his voice coldly sounded:
- If I have feelings for them, it won't be your turn.
- Whether you have feelings or not doesn't matter to you. It has nothing to do with me, please hurry and get out of my house.
Mikey was motionless, his sharp eyes looking at the girl standing with her hands on her waist, red in the face, he said:
- I will give you a sum of money, moreover, I will help you find out who killed your parents and make them pay. I will also take back your parents' property and company for you. Condition, just you to be my lover for a year. Well, it's not bad, is it?
Elena picked up the backrest pillow of the sofa and frantically hit Mikey, hitting and scolding:
- Go away, you lured me to go cuckold into your wife's head? I hate the kind of people who steal other people's husbands the most. And now you want me to do it! My life has been so pathetic so please forgive me. I don't want any more bad luck. Do you understand?
Mikey snatched the pillow from Elena's hand, then he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his lap:
- I need you to cure my illness, please help me for a year.
Elena struggled to get free. Mikey's hot breath touched Elena's neck. It made her feel embarrassed so she leaned forward. But just then, Elena quickly stopped when his very low but powerful voice rang in her ear:
- Sit still, just a moment, please! Sell yourself to me for a year, during that time, if I recover from my illness, I will set you free at that time.
Elena's mother once told her before she went to study abroad not to believe what men say without verification. The one holding her here is the man that many women crave, he is not only handsome but also very rich. How can such a person get sick?
He was just trying to coax her to fall.
Seeing his hand relax, Elena stood up and backed away to keep a safe distance:
- I'm not a prostitute, you go find someone else to spend money. I'm tired, you should go home. I need to rest so I can go to work tomorrow.
Mikey let go of his long legs and stood up. He stepped closer, and Elena stepped back.
- What do you want to do? I will shout it out loud.
He reached over her for his vest, his voice sarcastic:
- I took the shirt, what are you thinking? Do you look back and see if you are worthy of me?
- But someone just suggested me...
Elena fell silent when she met Mikey's cold gaze.
At the company, everyone said he was a strict, difficult person. If you are not careful to offend him, you will be fired, so no one dares to offend him.
Elena said softly:
- Go back and rest. Good night.
When Mikey disappeared behind the door, Elena breathed a sigh of relief, plopping down on the chair. Then she ran to the window, looked down at the street, and saw him get in the car out of the courtyard of the compound, she closed the door and went to bed.
Elena was too tired. She fell asleep immediately without thinking.

Mikey didn't come home. He went to the pub. He was bored sitting at the bar drinking alone, so he called David. It's midnight now.
David As soon as he sat down in the chair next to him, he immediately complained:
