Chapter 3 Desire for Revenge

What a contradictory idea. She was so afraid, yet she grabbed Curtis's clothes without hesitation and pressed her soft lips against his. No man would refuse the embrace of a beautiful woman, even Curtis. Moreover, this woman, whom he had just tasted a bit of, now suddenly leaned in again. Despite knowing the true reason for Katherine's actions, he couldn't help but take the next step. "Have you made up your mind?" Curtis knew perfectly well that everything Katherine was doing now was just using him as a tool for revenge. But he felt that things were becoming more interesting. Katherine didn't answer, only kissed him again, even more fiercely than before. This kiss represented her most genuine thoughts. "Go to the back." Initiating physical intimacy, without any sense of responsibility, seemed so cheap. But because of Katherine's identity and family background, it brought her a different allure. But this kind of allure was beyond what Curtis was thinking. He was interested in what he could obtain, even if it was only temporary. Katherine hesitated for a moment, then opened the car door and went to the back. Seeing her being so proactive, Curtis's lips curled up in a mocking smile. "Undress." He wanted to see how far this woman would go. Katherine sat in the back seat, calmly unbuttoning her clothes. As her clothes came off, her exquisite figure was exposed to the man's eyes. Curtis squinted slightly, then also opened the car door and came to the back. He tore off Katherine's last piece of covering, the narrow confines of the car bringing their bodies closer. With calloused hands, he parted Katherine's legs and placed them around his waist. Katherine turned her head, her eyelashes trembling. She felt Curtis's hand, soft from her chest, all the way down until it explored her secret garden. She bit her lip, not daring to make a sound, but her body's response was unmistakable. "Moan." Curtis's voice was hoarse, restrained, as if he wanted to devour her completely. Katherine felt like a fish on the chopping block. When the man's hand ventured further, she released her lip, letting out fragmented sounds from between her teeth. Hearing Katherine's voice, Curtis became even more excited. He pressed his body down further, eliminating any distance between them. In the car, Katherine's intermittent sounds and the faint sticky sound of their bodies merged. After exploring with his fingers for a while, Curtis suddenly kissed her, swallowing all of Katherine's sounds. He withdrew his hand, firmly grasped Katherine's hands, and pulled her waist closer to him. The car had been parked outside the villa all night, with lights still on in the villa's second floor, and vague figures moving inside. As for outside the villa, expensive cars trembled lightly. If someone got closer, they might hear faint sounds from inside. It was uncertain whether the villa's activity stopped first or the car's. When Katherine came to her senses, she felt like she wasn't herself anymore. "Can you take me home?" She didn't know when the sky had brightened outside. They had been fooling around outside all night. It was probably the most reckless moment of her life. To retaliate against her fiancé, she had done the most inappropriate thing with her fiancé's brother. But doing such things didn't give Katherine a sense of revenge. She even felt that everything that happened last night was absurd, more like a dream. Curtis straightened his clothes, glanced at the disheveled woman, said nothing, and calmly drove away from the villa area. ... The woman in the room woke up slowly, leaning tightly against Leonard's chest, her eyes full of infatuation. "Oh, my dear, why don't you sleep a little longer? It looks like a sunny day today." "Do you know it's already bright outside? Shouldn't we go check on Katherine? You two seemed to have made some plans last night. It's all my fault for interrupting. I wonder if she'll be angry." Eileen's voice was somewhat hoarse, but it carried a hint of coquettishness. There was guilt in her words, but her voice lacked any hint of it. Instead, it was more like a seductive hook, making the man who had just woken up in the early morning feel restless. Leonard turned over and pressed Eileen under him, his hands wandering recklessly over her smooth body. "Angry? I've never seen her angry in these years. Don't worry too much about her thoughts. Our thoughts are what matter most." As Leonard's voice fell, his body descended. "But we should go see her, right? We should give her an explanation. After all, she didn't come back all night." "Let's talk about it later. I need you now, my dear." Leonard's voice became more excited, his hands already exploring downwards. With a firm press, Eileen let out a cry. Breathing heavily, Leonard adjusted Eileen's body and began a new round of passion. Eileen also reached out her hands, responding to the man's movements on her body. ... At this point, she definitely couldn't go home. If she went back now, Katherine wouldn't be able to explain why she had become like this. Katherine looked at the approaching mall, thinking for a moment, then said to Curtis, "Can you stop for a moment? I want to buy some clothes first." "Buy clothes? The marks on your body probably won't be covered by just one piece of clothing. Yesterday's matter didn't succeed; there will definitely be a second time. Do you really think he's foolish enough not to notice what you've been through?" Curtis mocked, this woman actually wanted to change clothes as if yesterday's events hadn't happened? Katherine was somewhat annoyed. She had indeed been impulsive last night, but that didn't mean she would ignore what had happened. "Then I won't be foolish enough to go back wearing these clothes." Curtis pretended not to hear her words, continuing to drive without any intention of stopping. "If you still care about both families' face, please stop the car. I don't need you to do anything. Yesterday's matter ends here!" Katherine's heart kept sinking. She dared not imagine what she would face if she really went back like this. Just the mistake from last night should be enough, it shouldn't continue. Curtis frowned, slammed on the brakes, almost throwing Katherine out of the car. "Ends here? Let me tell you, anything starts and ends only when I say so. No one has ever said stop in front of me. Can yesterday's matter end just because you want it to?" Curtis's hand gripped Katherine's jaw again, this time even harder, causing Katherine to furrow her brow in pain. "Can you let go?" Curtis sneered, but finally let go. "Let's go." Katherine got out of the car in a sorry state, without looking back, and stumbled into the mall. The mall had just opened at this time, with few people inside. Katherine quickly bought some clothes, maintaining the last bit of dignity. Although Katherine was well aware that her dignity in front of Curtis was almost unsustainable, she didn't want to appear too disheveled. "There's movement over at the villa. They've both left. I guess they're coming to find you next. Have you thought about how to explain to him and how to reject him?" Curtis approached Katherine, his hand around her waist, gently pulling at Katherine's shirt, revealing the mottled red marks underneath. As if by magic, as soon as Curtis's words fell, Katherine's phone rang. She looked at her phone and saw that it was Leonard calling. Katherine looked up, meeting Curtis's mocking gaze. "To answer or not to answer?"
