Arianna’s family was falling apart and facing a tragic demise, however, her heart sank when she clearly saw Travis Cooper’s name on the acquisition papers. She had no choice but to negotiate with him.
Arianna lowered her head and relaxed her shoulders to ease the tension. She should show him gratefulness to make him happier, she thought, but she just couldn’t do it.
“How would you be willing to leave my grandfather alone?”
He casually poured her a cup of tea and placed it in front of her before replying, “I think the correct person to ask is the judge, no? The offenders are usually punished. This is a matter of justice, isn’t it?”
Arianna was beginning to grow tired of his mood swings.
“He is old, and his body is failing him. He would not last long in prison.” Arianna continued to try to sway him.
“What can I do? I always admire devoted children.” His voice carried some ridicule, “But I’m not a charity. I only do transactions with interests. What would you do in exchange for the freedom of your grandfather?”
Travis intertwined the fingers of his one hand with the other and rested his hands on his stomach as he leaned back in his chair once more. His expression was a bit lazy, “Since you entered this door, I’ve been waiting for the drama of you selling your body and soul to me in order to save your family member.”
When Arianna didn’t reply, Travis explicitly said, “Maybe I’m just bored. I’d like to try something fun.”
Arianna’s stomach felt like it flipped. She looked at the handsome face that was now showing evil.

Arianna felt the breath leave her face and heard the footsteps moving away from her. Straining her heart, she mustered up the energy to open her eyes. She slowly turned her head to the side.


The sun was setting outside her window, and it was beginning to become dark in the room. Someone was sitting on the lounge beneath the window, stretching his arms and legs lazily.


She tried to open her mouth and speak, but only inaudible sounds came out. Finally, she stuttered, “Get me a glass of water, please.”


In the light of the dusk, Travis casually met her gaze. His expression was lost in the light, and Arianna could not tell whether he was surprised or mocking, but he slowly stood up.


The lamp above her head suddenly turned on, and her eyes burned under the light. She closed her eyelids. She heard his footsteps walking to her bedside and the sound of a cupboard opening. He placed an opened bottle of mineral water into her hand.
