Female Novel
Chapter 350
Carol's cheeks were red and swollen as she clumsily followed him out. She cried and spoke withhesitation as if struggling to express herself clearly. "Please, it's 500. Please."
She begged desperately, her body trembling uncontrollably. It was obvious that she was indesperate need of money.
The man snapped and forcefully shoved Carol aside, angrily exclaiming, "Move out of my way!What an unlucky day! Fool!"
But weren't they all bullying a fool? They would give others 500, but would only give Carol 200 eachtime.
"I need money. I really need money, please." Carol knelt on the ground and kept desperatelybegging.
I stood at the end of the corridor, watching her innocently begging, and felt incredibly unsettled.
"Hand over the money. You agreed on 500, so that's what you need to give her. If you don't, we'llhave to involve the police. If you're not afraid of the shame of going to jail, then go ahead and try it!"I approached the man and grabbed him angrily.
The man became angry and wanted to push me, but Steven quickly pushed him directly against thewall. In the end, the man cursed and tossed a stack of 300 dollars onto the ground before swiftlyfleeing the scene.
Carol cautiously picked up the money from the ground, peeking fearfully at Steven. She seemed tobe very afraid of Steven. Suddenly, she stood up and rushed back to the room, determined to lockthe door.novelbin
Steven instantly stepped forward and pushed the door open, demanding, "Open the door!"
Only then did Carol open the door in fear as she nervously backed away. "Steve..."
Steven stared at her in silence.
Carol secretly placed the cash under the pillow and cast an uneasy glance in my direction. "Ididn't... I didn't push her on purpose."
She was scared that she had pushed me that day. Did Steven come to see her? Steven didn'tspeak. He simply stood at the door and gazed at me.
I attempted to soothe her. "Carol, could we please have a conversation?"
However, she lowered her head and ignored me.
"I can pay you." Knowing she needed money, I reached into Steven's pocket for the cash and gaveit to Carol. Steven snorted reluctantly.
I was actually quite curious. Carol was Simeon's sister, and Steven and Simeon were close to eachother. It was puzzling that he was reluctant when I asked him to get some cash out just now,considering he couldn't ignore her when he had money.
Carol shook her head vigorously and took a step back. "I don't want that. Simmy said that I can't getsomething for nothing."
I was stunned. "But what you're doing is illegal. And..."
I was somewhat embarrassed to say it, but this was simply not right.
Carol tilted her head and shook it. "Simmy always said that I can't get something for nothing."
She had a mental disability and only seemed to remember this sentence.
"You get something for nothing by doing this too." I corrected her way of thinking.
She looked at me with fear, then turned to Steven. "You too! Do you work for money? You... yousleep with him, and he gives you money."
Carol pointed at me and then at Steven.
I felt somewhat powerless and was left speechless. "We are a married couple, and he enjoysspoiling me with his earnings."
Carol pursed her lips and muttered, "Shameless."
I was confused and looked at Steven. What did I do to be called shameless?
Steven's gaze lingered on Carol, his expression filled with caution. He didn't see her as justsomeone with intellectual disabilities, but rather as a dangerous person.
"I have something I'd like to ask you about. Could you please tell me?" I inquired tentatively.
Carol muttered, "You have to pay me."
Without hesitation, I handed over some cash to her.
She still repeated, "I can't get something for nothing."
"Then what do you want?" I was about to lose my patience.
Carol pointed at Steven. "Let him sleep with me and pay me."
