Ethan couldn't sit still and wait for the police to handle the situation. He was afraid the investigation would take too long. So, after much hesitation and contemplation, he firmly held his mobile phone and decided to contact the judge, begging for assistance. Ethan was trying every possible way to find Ula as soon as possible.Before Ethan's sincerity, the judge decided to help him. Leveraging his personal connections, the judge quickly mobilized a large police force to join the case.And so, the search for Ula began rapidly and urgently. Ethan knew he had to find the girl before it was too late. His heart raced with each passing moment, and he felt the pressure increasing, but he was determined never to give up....Ula slowly regained consciousness, slightly panicked to find herself locked in an unfamiliar room. In a dazed state, the strong smell of cigarette smoke assaulted her nostrils, making her feel nauseated and uncomfortable."You've finally come to," a woman's voice rang o
Time has flowed quietly since Jade left the room, leaving Ula alone. Since then, nothing could compare to the deep thoughts flooding Ula's soul.Ula had carefully contemplated her conversation with Jade and the life she had been living. She recalled the tremendous pressures and difficulties she had endured, the numerous sacrifices she had made for others, as well as the injustices and disadvantages she had faced. Ula also thought about the path she considered the right choice and suddenly felt like she had missed an essential part of herself, and it was time for her to make a change.But did she have the courage to do so? To change the course of her life, a path that, according to Ula, was full of temptations and dangers. Ula didn't know and couldn't find the most accurate answer. However, Ula was aware that she needed to confront her current fears and anxieties. That was what Jade had reminded her of. Faced with two extremely difficult and cruel choices, Ula could only pray that luck
The silence was shattered as Mr. Sam forcefully slammed the gavel onto the table, creating a resonating sound in the emotionally charged space. The sound of the gavel awakened both Uri and Ula, bringing them back to the harsh reality of this auction."Congratulations to the winning bidder of our most special auction this evening," Mr. Sam declared with authority, his voice emphasizing the significance of this decision. "Miss Ula, you have found a new owner. I'd like to invite the gentleman who secured the victory to step onto the stage."All eyes focused on Uri as he began to step onto the stage, each of his strides leaving a deep imprint in everyone's minds. Uri not only possessed a striking appearance but also exuded an air of pride and authority. At a glance, it was clear that Uri was a wealthy individual, possibly an heir or scion of a prominent and affluent family. As Uri moved, Ula felt a mix of excitement and tension, unable to help but observe every powerful movement of the ma
"Ula, what do you want to say to me?" Jade didn't want to waste any more time; she wanted to end the conversation with Ula as quickly as possible. Not knowing Ula's motives, Jade decided to probe first and adapt to the situation accordingly.Seeing Jade's impatience, Ula also didn't prolong the conversation. She went straight to the point. Ula wanted to quickly go home to her grandmother, fearing that her grandmother might be worried about her."Jade, please give me back the debt paper," Ula requested seriously, holding out her hand towards Jade as if she were waiting.Both Jade and Uri were once again surprised by Ula's boldness and courage. Jade couldn't believe it. Where did Ula get such great confidence? Additionally, Jade felt a bit tense due to the pressure Ula was exerting. Jade unconsciously swallowed something Uri could easily notice. Clearly, Ula had just launched a direct attack that had destructive power over Jade. It felt like Ula was blocking the development of Jade's wi
"Alright, both of you. Can you please listen to me?" Sensing the tension, Uri decided to intervene, or rather, step in to help Ula. Uri did so out of concern that Jade might bring her people in and cancel the auction result, then possibly expel him from here. By then, Uri couldn't save Ula but would be embarrassed instead. As for Ula, she would naturally continue to be imprisoned here, possibly forever.Immediately, the two women turned to Uri, showing anticipation and hoping that his opinion would at least help their situation. Without further ado, Uri put his hand in his pocket and pulled out another ATM card, getting straight to the point."There's $5 million here. I believe this amount will satisfy you." Uri handed the ATM card to Jade and added persuasively, "You should agree to this because, as Ula said, she's entitled to half of the money from selling her virginity. Moreover, according to the regulations here, this brokerage fee is entirely reasonable. If you insist on complica
Ethan relied on intuition, whispers of prayer, and continuous hope as he hurriedly ran to the largest and most renowned hotel in the city, his heart filled with anticipation of finding Ula.Luck truly smiled upon Ethan the moment he stepped into the hotel. He spotted Ula standing next to a man he could not recognize yet, waiting for the elevator. Ethan was overjoyed to the point of forgetting to breathe in that moment. Inside, he felt his heart vibrate violently, his gaze fixed solely on the woman he loved."Ula Cox," Ethan called out courageously, but Ula seemed lost in thought, not hearing Ethan's voice amidst her confusion. And Uri appeared equally oblivious to his surroundings, unaware of someone searching for Ula.Feeling disappointed and crestfallen at Ula's lack of response, Ethan's feet immediately carried him towards the girl.As Ethan approached Ula, the elevator doors opened, and Uri swiftly stepped inside, Ula following suit. However, just before Ula could fully enter the
Ethan had tried his best to break into Uri's room to meet Ula. However, security personnel swiftly thwarted his efforts. In the end, they escorted him out of the hotel in a less-than-graceful manner. Disappointed and disheartened, Ethan muttered curses at Ula and cursed Uri under his breath before reluctantly walking away.Heavy-hearted and confused, his mind in turmoil, Ethan wandered the streets, unsure whether to go back home or seek solace in a bar. Just as he was torn and indecisive, Ethan's phone rang. It was the hospital calling, informing him that Mrs. Donna was causing a commotion again and wanted to leave the hospital to find Ula. Upon hearing this news, Ethan immediately rushed to the hospital as he felt a sense of responsibility; he could not turn a blind eye to Ula's grandmother's condition.Ethan, breathing heavily, entered the turbulent hospital room. Before him, he saw the scene: Mrs. Donna resisting against two female nurses and a male doctor."What's happening here?"
Uri listened attentively, his eyes filled with empathy for Ula. As the story came to an end, Uri let out a gentle sigh."I understand what you're facing," he said sincerely. "It's good that I didn't just buy you for a physical relationship. I feel like our meeting wasn't purely coincidental. That's why I want to continue helping you, not for personal gain.""What do you mean by saying you'll continue to help me?" Ula was a bit unclear about this. "You've redeemed me from the night box; I'm very grateful to you. I haven't been able to do anything to repay you, so I don't dare expect anything more.""I can cover the medical expenses for your grandmother," Uri explained clearly to help Ula understand. "Rest assured, that money comes from a charity fund that I and some friends founded. You don't have to refuse it."Uri's words made Ula feel warm and safe. In that moment, she understood that she was not just being bought with money but was meeting a man with a kind heart. This was a great
