Chapter 9

• Jessica pursed her lips, thinking if she should tell her boss or not. Thinking about how her younger ones were at home while others were going to school, she decided to give it a try. At least, it won't do any harm asking him.
• If not that she had already paid for the bills and her father's medical, she would have given them that money first. But she just paid for the bills.
• "Boss, I… I wanted to ask…" Jessica stuttered. She was afraid of the outcome of what she was about to ask.
• "Jessica, if it's about money, it's not going to work" her boss cuts in.
• Looking perplexed at the way that man could sense whenever someone wants to ask for money, Jessica just bites hard on her lips.
• "Jessy, it's not like I don't want to help you or something. It's just that I did a lot of expenses for the shop and my family. I can't release any money today or even three days from now because I just spent a huge sum on the business, ``he explained.
• He sighed loudly before leaving the perplexed Jessica who already knew the outcome yet was still surprised.
• She knew it was futile. That man would never part with an early salary. She wondered if she could get another part-time job that pays hourly. It would be
• Just some tables away, Jessica didn't know she was being scrutinized by some pair of eyes. Edwin and two of his friends were observing the distressed lady at the coffee stand. It was obvious she was asking for an in front of her salary.
• The girl had the most gorgeous pair of emerald green eyes and a perfect front. Her face would make any man lost in it with rosy lips that had just a gloss on them. And when she walked in, even though she was poorly dressed, it couldn't hide the perfectly sized hips.
• "Wow, Ed! The girl is so hot! And natural! Can't believe such beauties still exist" Roy exclaimed.
• "You are right, Roy. She got the right curves and face. Not to talk of her feisty personality. She is going to be a feast in bed" another one said.
• "Seriously Rick, your grammar sucks! What has feast got to do with bed?" Roy said, looking at the one that just spoke.
• "Whatever. Ed, was she truly the chick that called you a pervert and didn't look at you twice?" Rick asked, facing the horrifying expression on Edwin's face.
• "Must you rub it in?" Edwin asked, getting irritated.
• "Just wanted to confirm it. Ed, you have to admit the girl beat you hands down and I bet you can't get her" Rick said, grinning.
• "Are you daring me?" Edwin asked, gazing at his friend.
• "More like a bet that you can't get her!" Rick reaffirms.
• "I agree with Rick on this matter. This chick is way out of your league, dude" Jay said, chuckling.
• "Out of my league? How can you call poor trash like her out of my league? Or do you mean she is too poor for my liking?" Edwin asked, a sly smile on his face.
• " In terms of getting the girls, she is above you man. You can't get her" Rick responded, smiling too.
• Edwin was getting pissed at his friend's remark. How could they say that girl was way out of his league? He is the son of the wealthiest family in the States and a more successful businessman.
• "Apart from the beauty and her curves, what else does she have? Do you think she would refuse my proposal if I ask her to spend a night with me?" Edwin asked, arrogantly.
• "Yes. She would refuse you, dude. This girl isn't one of those bitches who hangs with you. She looks homely" Jay remarked.
• " Homely? What would you say about Sandra? Wasn't she homely? But she was begging to be f***ked by me" Edwin bragged.
• " She is different and Sandra wasn't just homely, she was a homely slut!" Rick spat out, distastefully.
• " Notwithstanding, I can get any girl I want. They can't resist my charm or my money" Edwin said.
• " Then go and try her. She requires money right now. Try her and see. But I bet you are going to receive something unexpected " Rick said.
• " Don't be jealous, Rick. You don't have to hold a grudge against me because of Sandra. I just banged her once" Edwin said, grinning.
• " No grudges, dude. Just go and hang this girl out there and I will accept whatever you say henceforth!" Rick said, a smirk playing on his face.
• He just can't wait to see the embarrassing scene that will likely unfold. Rick has little idea about these types of girls. Even if they are bitches, they would want the man to pretend to see them as queens.
• "Fine! I will go and meet her" Edwin said, looking at the distressed girl whose eyes were looking into nowhere in particular.
• She was looking so innocent yet sexy and gorgeous. Her green emerald eyes shone even though they looked dull and in distress. He wondered what he was thinking about.
• He heard that she was looking for a salary upfront. If he can offer her a few hundred thousand dollars or even a million, he bet she won't hesitate to throw herself at him.
• "If you fail this one, you owe me and if you win, I owe you," Rick said.
• "Deal!" Edwin said without hesitation.
• Adjusting his hair before putting on a charming smile, Edwin walked slowly towards the girl who was sitting alone. There were no customers in the Cafe except for himself and his friends.
• "Hello beautiful, dollars for your thoughts?" Edwin asked.
• Jessica looked up to see those beautiful eyes that she had been thinking about since yesterday. He was looking more handsome and charming. She wanted to smile at him but then she remembered what happened the last time.
• " No, thanks. Keep the dollars to yourself" Jessica replied.
• " How about a night with you? Just name your price" Edwin said, smiling as his eyes continue to ravage her body.
• Jessica thought she heard wrong. He couldn't be telling her to sleep with him, right?
• " Sorry, what did you just say?" Jessica asked again.
• " Name your price. I am ready to pay you anything just have you under me. A night… ouch!"
• Jessica didn't wait for him to finish his explanation before a resounding slap landed on his cheek. It was so loud that her hands hurt but she didn't mind.
• Hitting a pervert was more satisfying than the hurt in her hands!
