City Love: Exclusively Yours

Late night at G City.The Palace Hotel.Daphne Mae Montgomery sat on the couch in the luxurious presidential suite, staring down at the handmade carpet, which was more expensive than her own skirt by one square foot alone. Her eyes were as silent as ashes.What would a high school graduate who had just received admission into the best university in the country do during summer vacation after graduation?Some would be partying, others would go traveling, some would be busy saying goodbye to their classmates…Daphne, on the other hand… “Daphne, we Montgomerys have always treated you well. Therefore, as a Montgomery, you must now help the company in its time of need! Spend the night with him, and our family will be saved. You will be our savior!”Olivia Benwick-Montgomery’s voice echoed in her mind once again, loud and clear.The temperature in the presidential suite was at 25℃. Daphne was freezing from head to toe.‘Savior…’As Olivia’s voice reverberated in Daphne’s mind agai

Mathilda frowned at Daphne.“I’m only here so that Nicholas Wolfe will help save my family’s company. I’m not here to be his mistress!” Daphne revealed.‘Wasn’t I supposed to just spend a night with Nicholas Wolfe? What the hell is going on?’“You’re a gift from Mr. Siegfried. Mr. Siegfried’s promises to you are his business. We’re now discussing your role as Mr. Wolfe’s mistress. This was Mr. Wolfe’s request,” Mathilda explained.Daphne immediately frowned. ‘Nicholas Wolfe?’“Honestly, there were a few women who’ve received such privileges before you, but after spending some time with Mr. Wolfe, they—”“No thanks!”Daphne immediately cut Mathilda off. She fixed her eyes on Mathilda as she coldly explained, “That’s not why I came here. Not yesterday, not ever! I’m really sorry, but I have to go!”Then, Daphne immediately ran out of the room, unbothered by how astonished Mathilda was.After leaving The Palace Hotel, Daphne silently cursed Nicholas’s insanity as she made her way

Daphne stayed very still, refusing to move. Nicholas lifted his gaze and stared at her again. This time, he spoke in an impatient voice. “A warning, I don’t like ignorant women!”‘This girl isn’t that young, but she’s still acting like a kid. Forget it. I’ll let her off the hook. Just this once!’Locked in this place, Daphne could see nothing else but the man in front of her.Daphne weighed the consequences of continuing her stance. She bit her lips and walked toward him.At this point, opposing Nicholas was equivalent to inviting disaster.Daphne chose the furthest spot away from Nicholas on the couch and sat down. She stared at Nicholas warily and asked, “What did you want to discuss?”‘This is just too weird!’Daphne was under the impression that her one and only contact with Nicholas would have been last night. She never expected to be kidnapped all the way here, and she didn’t even know why!Daphne wasn’t wearing her glasses, so she was staring at Nicholas blurrily through

Daphne finally realized how delusional she had been when she fearfully walked out of the villa.There were bodyguards in black suits, standing guard outside. It was wishful thinking on her end to believe that she could escape from this place. She would never have been able to escape without Nicholas’s permission.The bodyguards ignored Daphne. Her road to escape went without a hitch.The villa’s compound was huge. Daphne couldn’t find her way out at all. Her back was drenched from walking around under the hot sun for such a long time.Daphne tried looking for someone to ask for directions but couldn’t find a single soul.“Cedric, you’re so bad…”Suddenly, she overheard a sugary-sweet, girlish voice. Daphne came to an abrupt stop and stared squarely at her feet. The sunlight was bouncing off her legs.‘That voice sounded too familiar!’“Stop swimming, baby. Let’s go inside. I haven’t seen you in two months!”That voice sounded even more familiar. Daphne stood under the hot su

“Enough!” Daphne shouted.She glared at Olivia, unable to restrain herself any longer, and said, “‘No money’, you say? If there’s no money, what’s that new bag you’ve just bought? If I’m reading that label correctly, a bag from that brand would cost 30,000 bucks! And that necklace you’re wearing! Those bracelets on your arms! Those rings! And you have the nerve to claim that you don’t have money?”What irony! They had gone to her, claiming that the family was going bankrupt, asking her to sell her body, yet they were parading around in gold and silver!And when she needed money, they continued parading their finery and claimed to have none at all!Olivia was stunned. She did not expect that her usually quiet stepdaughter, whom she had abused for many years, would have the nerve to speak to her in that way. Her face reddened in anger!However, she was momentarily at a loss for words to retaliate against her. All she could do was glare at Daphne and wish that she could tear her to p
