Chapter 2 Unexpected Debt

Leo's car stopped in front of a luxurious hotel. Neon lights illuminated the magnificent building, momentarily stunning Vyora. However, her vision was blurred. She forgot to put on her glasses, which were probably left behind at the bar.

Leo helped Vyora get out of the car. He guided her inside the hotel. Vyora simply obeyed, her mind in disarray.

Leo had already booked the best room. He brought Vyora inside the room. Vyora was confused as her body was laid down on the bed.

"Hey, what's the meaning of this? Where am I?" Vyora asked, confused. She looked around, everything seemed foreign to her.

Leo sat down at the edge of the bed, gently stroking Vyora's face. "Don't you understand, darling? I'm collecting a debt from you."

"What? A debt?"

"Yes, a debt," Leo replied, nodding.

"You splashed your drink on me earlier. It was an expensive drink, and my favorite. So you have to pay for it."

Vyora instantly remembered the incident. She felt guilty. "I'm sorry, but I don't have any money now. I... I spent all my money buying that beer."

Leo chuckled, his fingers adjusting Vyora's messy bangs. "You're funny, Darling. Don't you know I can ask for compensation in something else?"

Vyora looked at Leo with a questioning gaze. She felt something was wrong. But her brain was struggling to think.

"What's that?"

"Easy. Just sleep with me," Leo replied with a charming smile.

Vyora's eyes widened slightly. Her hand unconsciously gripped the sheet tightly. She was honestly afraid, but suddenly felt disgusted with herself. Because she had held onto her purity all this time.

So, there was no harm in wanting to experience that feeling. She wanted to release all the sadness and disappointment that had attacked her heart.

"I'll do it," Vyora answered after a long silence.

Vyora closed her eyes and tried to calm herself. She thought that this was her chance to let go of all the pain.

"After this, I don't want to be involved with any man," Vyora whispered to herself. "So, it's better to lose my innocence to this stranger. At least I won't see him again."

Vyora took a deep breath. She had to be strong. She had to get through this difficult time. She was an adult. No one could help her but herself.

Leo smiled triumphantly. He moved closer to Vyora. His hand pulled Vyora's neck, then kissed her lips softly. Then he pulled his face away for a moment.

"You won't regret it, Darling. I'll make you feel better," Leo whispered right next to Vyora's ear.

The woman closed her eyes and surrendered to Leo. She wanted to forget all the sadness and disappointment she had just experienced.

Leo pulled Vyora into his arms. He rubbed her waist slowly and kissed Vyora more passionately.

That night, Vyora spent a passionate night with Leo. She surrendered to the man she didn't know, unaware that he was actually her boss at the office. She also didn't know that it was Leo who had brought her glasses, left behind at the bar earlier.

Leo deliberately didn't tell Vyora who he was. He enjoyed the game. He felt an immense satisfaction seeing Vyora surrender to him.

Leo continued to kiss Vyora, gently at first, then roughly. He had been holding back all this time. Ever since he saw the woman apply for a job at his company, he had been looking forward to this moment.

"You're so beautiful, darling," Leo whispered, tracing Vyora's body with his hand.

Vyora closed her eyes and tried to enjoy the moment. She felt something different about herself.

"You know? I've actually been holding back all this time." Leo kissed Vyora's neck and left a mark there.

Vyora bit her lower lip. She held back the sound she didn't want to let out.

"You're beautiful and perfect," Leo praised, kissing Vyora's hair.

Vyora's heart pounded. She felt nervous and tense. This was the first time she'd felt this way.

"I want you to be completely mine," Leo whispered, gazing into Vyora's eyes.

***

The morning felt incredibly heavy for Vyora. Her head pounded, her memories spinning like a broken cassette tape. All she could recall was being dumped by Noah and getting drunk.

Now, waking up in a luxurious room with no clothes on, Vyora felt shocked and confused. She looked around the quiet room.

"Where am I? Who brought me here?" Vyora mumbled, biting her lip. After a few moments, she finally remembered something.

Vyora then laughed, "Ah, right. I finally shed my status as a good girl."

Vyora quickly put on her clothes and left the room. She walked downstairs at a quick pace, slightly annoyed that her glasses were missing due to her own carelessness.

As she reached the hotel lobby, she was surprised to see a taxi waiting for her.

"This is your cab, Miss," the taxi driver said with a friendly smile.

Vyora looked at the taxi driver with a questioning gaze. She couldn't remember when she ordered the taxi. She hadn't even opened her phone since waking up.

"Who ordered this taxi?" Vyora asked.

"Mr. Leo," the taxi driver answered.

Vyora's eyes widened in surprise. She tried to recall the name Leo. And what came to mind was the man who had helped her last night.

"Leo?" Vyora murmured.

She admitted that she couldn't refuse the taxi offer. She remembered spending all her money last night. She had to get home. So she couldn't possibly walk.

Not long after, Vyora arrived at her small apartment. She immediately showered and got ready for work.

As she arrived at the office, she heard whispers from people mocking her relationship with Noah. They knew because they were also at the bar last night, when Vyora caught Noah cheating.

"Poor Vyora, dumped by Noah," whispered one short-haired employee.

"It's understandable to me. Vyora isn't right for Noah. That man is handsome and rich. He's not on the same level as Vyora, who's from the countryside and poor," whispered another employee wearing bright red lipstick.

"It must be because Vyora is too innocent, so Noah got bored with her. Men always want interesting women," added a male employee.

Vyora held back her frustration. She really wanted to explain everything. She wanted to tell them about the crime Noah had committed. But her lips wouldn't speak.

"Vyora, are you okay?" asked Grace, her friend who sat at the desk next to her.

"Yes, I'm fine," Vyora replied, clenching her hands under the table.

Vyora tried to hold back her frustration for a while. But they didn't stop whispering and staring at her. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer. Her anger exploded. Vyora stood up and glared at all the employees there.

"Hey, listen! You're wrong! Noah is the one who's rude! He cheated on me with another woman! I was cheated on! And you should know that it's not me who's not good enough for him, but he's the one who's not on the same level as me!" Vyora screamed, catching her breath.

Everyone was shocked. They couldn't believe that Vyora could speak so loudly. All this time, Vyora was known to be quiet and never showed emotions in front of others.

"Noah is a jerk!" Vyora repeated loudly. "He's not a good man!"

Everyone fell silent. They looked at Vyora with a variety of gazes. But then, they turned back to their computers. They resumed their work.
