I woke up in a strange room.

"Awake?" It was Nathan's voice.

Nathan walked over and I couldn't understand the way he looked at me.

Then he threw me a paper: "Sign it."

I reached out and felt the pain of tears in my arm. I realized I had a bandage on my arm.

"Be my mistress for ten million a month." Nathan sat down by the bed and said these words calmly.

"Emma, you know, this is a lot of money for you. It is enough for you to solve some problems. Only I can help you in this situation, I hope you to be a sensible woman."

Nathan pulled up a seat next to the bed, regarding me with cool detachment.

"Given Scott Group's current predicament, you won't be able to secure a loan now."

My hands shook as I held the contract, his words chilling me to the core.

"Refusing to sign will lead to regret."

He paused momentarily before adding, "Incidentally, Scott Group's shares plummeted today."

The news hit me like a thunderbolt. I whipped my head around to face him.
