Chapter 10

When I entered the room with fresh sheets, Vanessa had just come out of the bathroom.

I greeted her and then buried my head in changing the sheets.

She walked to the bed wrapped in a towel, eyeing me:

"Luke really has no shame, calling you to clean up so late."

"I'm sorry, Lily, we made the sheets too dirty..."

Vanessa had intended to provoke me, but found I was unmoved.

Her expression changed slightly, and she quickly adopted a different tone:

"But come to think of it, Lily's sexual desires must be hard to satisfy alone, right...?"

"For a bitch... does it take five? Or ten?"

Memories of the private club suddenly filled my entire mind, and my body felt unbearably cold.

"Last time when so many men were on top of you, tell your sister-in-law honestly, you actually enjoyed it..."

Before Vanessa could finish speaking, my palm landed on her face.

Vanessa was stunned by my slap, holding her face frozen in place.

And this scene was just witnessed by Luke, who had just pushed open the door.

"Have you fucking lost your mind?!"

Luke strode over to me, and the next second, a burning red handprint was imprinted on my face.

My mouth was full of the taste of blood. I watched as Luke embraced Vanessa, comforting her with utmost tenderness.

Vanessa nestled in Luke's arms, crying heartbrokenly.

"Luke, I just wanted to check if Lily was scared by what happened a few days ago, and she just...!"

"It's okay, Vanessa, don't be afraid. I'm here."

Luke looked at me like I was garbage:

"You're just a dog picked up by the Wilson family, don't forget your place."

"It seems you won't know your mistake without some punishment."
