Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game

She sold everything she could sell, but the money would only last until next month.

So she had to raise money before next month. She thought she could make it, but who would have thought the contract would be snatched away just like that.

Gazing coldly at the contract in Lisa’s hand, she curled her lips into a faint smile, laden with sarcasm and contempt.

”Avery Jane, don’t be too self-righteous. Do you think pretending to be pure and innocent will make people like you? If you want to stay pure, you shouldn’t mingle in this circle. Sooner or later, you’ll end up like me, perhaps even more depraved,” Lisa retorted unreservedly since it was Avery who first tore off the facade.

Because Anderson Ack was a foreigner, Lisa spoke in Chinese, her eyes filled with envy and jealousy. One had to admit Avery Jane had the means to provoke women’s jealousy.

In this circle, using one’s body to exchange for contracts has become an open secret. Lisa wrapped her arm around the foreign man’s: ”Anderson, weren’t you going to take me to visit your flagship store in Asia? You promised me a beautiful bracelet.”

Turning to flirt with Anderson Ack, her demeanor was entirely different from earlier, full of charm and allure.

”Is this Miss Avery Jane? As compensation, feel free to pick out a gift together; you can choose any piece of jewelry,” Anderson’s grey-blue eyes held an underlying, mysterious meaning.

Angela Scott tugged at Avery Jane’s hand, signaling her to accept the offer. One should know that any one of those gifts meant if Avery picked the most valuable one, the executive would have to give it.

But giving away a piece of jewelry was not an issue. Angela had done her homework before coming; Anderson Ack was the heir of Grant Jewelry Company and held nearly thirty-seven percent of the shares. Clearly, he was very interested in Avery Jane.

”Thank you, but no,” Avery Jane replied with an indifference as cold as the autumn wind, ignoring Angela Scott’s hint. She lightly nodded at the tall foreign man and then turned and walked out of the meeting room.

She understood well the concept of being indebted after accepting favors. If she accepted a piece of jewelry, would she, in the future, have to be like the women she despised, using her body to trade?

”Avery, why are you still like this? You know people like him casually giving away a piece of jewelry is more than just a few bucks,” Angela Scott gestured with her hand, pointing out that Avery Jane was currently in need of money, wasn’t she?

”You also know the things he let me pick are valuable, but do you think he just wants to give them away casually?” Avery Jane coldly spoke, too familiar with that man’s gaze.

From when she was still a student, such gazes frequently followed her — men’s eyes filled with desire and their intentions were blatantly obvious.

Back at the M.C Headquarters, it was already noon. Avery Jane sat in the M.C lounge, where artists without a schedule usually enjoyed a cup of coffee.

Avery Jane frowned. Without any schedule, she would be in trouble in the future. Fortunately, Angela Scott had already started helping her arrange alternative audition opportunities.

She always thought beauty wasn’t a good thing, even bringing her pain and disaster. But now, she could only rely on her beautiful appearance to earn money.

But now her beautiful facade seemed to lack value. It was all about who had the guts to approach advertisers and whether one was willing to drift from bed to bed, but could she?

The hot steam from the tea blurred her vision, making her look as lost and pitiable as a cub separated from its pack.

Everyone was secretly laughing at her.

In this company, such news spread faster than anything.

She hadn’t been back long, and the news that Lisa had replaced her in signing for the Grant Jewelry Company’s annual ad campaign had already spread throughout the entire company. Everyone looked at her with different eyes.

”Avery, do you see? This is reality. If you really want to survive in this industry, you have to find a pillar of support for yourself; otherwise, you’ll have to go back to the Yates Family and ask Old Master Yates and Lucas Yates for help,” Angela Scott knew with Avery Jane’s disposition, it was impossible for her to go back to the Yates Family for help.

Back then, the words of Old Master Yates were harsh enough that it left no retreat for Lucas Yates and Avery Jane.

But if you want a pillar of support? Why should a man become your pillar and protect you from all troubles, allowing you to earn money smoothly and easily? The condition could only be one thing — you must provide a body for them to enjoy that matches their expectations.
