"Playing hard to get? Ha ha!"
"Let go of me!" Selah kicked the man hard.
"Why are you pretending to be so virginal when you work in a damned place like this? C'mon! Don't tell me you're only here to sell alcohol!" The man leaned forward and sneered at Selah. "Tell me, how much is it for one night? Ha ha..."
As soon as the man finished speaking, his friends laughed along with him.
Barry watched the scene unfold with a hazy look in his eyes. He scoffed and drank the last of the wine in his glass. The entire scene was uninteresting for him, and he intended to go after paying the bill.
"Come on, give me a kiss!" The intoxicated man moved closer to Selah's face.
Selah struggled to move away from the man, and her fury was evident on her face. She grabbed the tray in her hands and slammed it onto the man's head. As she hit him with the tray, she cursed, "I'll beat you to death!"
"Ow!" The man didn't expect Selah to fight back. He screamed as he covered his head. Blood oozed onto his fingers.
Selah took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. Her eyes widened when she saw the blood. She only wanted to teach him a lesson! Why was he bleeding so much?
"How dare you hit him?"
Before Selah could react, she was slapped hard on the face and fell backward.
Barry was about to leave when a woman suddenly fell into his arms.
Selah closed her eyes tightly and braced herself for the fall. Instead of hitting the cold, hard floor, she felt a fir
egan to sob uncontrollably.
Ray's condition wasn't getting any better. At the start of the year, he had lost his sight. The doctor informed her that if they didn't operate soon, his brain would be permanently damaged! Ray was a good child, and she was his mother! No matter how shameless she felt, she had to do whatever it took to cure him!
She cried until she had no strength left in her body. She didn't know how long she stayed in that position. After collecting herself, she staggered downstairs to change her clothes.
"Selah! You injured a customer's head last night and made a mess in the club! Give me all the money you earned last night! You're fired!"
Fired? She couldn't care less. Selah didn't want to stay in this place for another second. When the club owner reached out to take her money, she held it tightly in her hands.
Fortunately for her, Barry was a man of his word. He transferred one hundred thousand dollars to Selah's account the next day.
Selah smiled when she looked at the number. She didn't expect herself to be worth so much money!
Selah felt like her life had hit rock bottom again, even worse than it had been seven years ago. Back then, she was drugged before sleeping with a stranger, but this time, she did it out of her own free will. She became the kind of woman she despised the most. What Selah didn't know was how lucky she was to come across Barry again. Just as the old saying went, "Every cloud has a silver lining."
