Tiffany took a shower in the bathroom and walked out wrapped in a bathrobe after a long while.
Hendrey smoked a cigarette as he stood in front of the French window when she came out of the shower. Tiffany glanced at the brand new set of clothes on the bed.
Her eyes flashed slightly, and she said softly, ' Hendrey, you mustn't look, okay?"
The man couldn't help his instinctive reaction to turn around when he heard her voice and saw Tiffany wearing a bathrobe. She was barefaced, and her long hair was down to her shoulders, revealing her white swan-like neck and delicate and alluring collarbones. Coupled with her erect nipples due to the chill, she was a true beauty desired by all.
In an instant, Hendrey thought of the lines of a poem by William Wordsworth called 'Perfect Woman', She was a Phantom of delight. When she first gleamed upon my sight, a lovely Apparition was sent to be a moment’s ornament.
I must say: these two sisters, Tiffany and Veronica, really are two gorgeous women. Their beauty is still soulstirring even if they don't wear any makeup.
But Veronica is the goddess in my heart, so she's definitely unattainable.
In fact, she's even a little aloof. She isn't as sl*tty as Tiffany.
It's interesting. One is a countrybumpkin who came to the city searching for better prospects in life, while the other is a daughter of a famous noble family in the capital city. Yet, both have entirely different personalities from what people would have expected.
Truly ironic!
How could Hendrey not know about Tiffany's 'seduction'?
With that, he snuffed out the cigarette and walked to Tiffany. Then, he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. "What's the matter? I'm your man. Can't I look?"
The domineering words that escaped Hendrey's lips were utterly different from his warm and soothing temperament.
Actually, there was even a moment when Tiffany could see a dangerous aura coming from his eyes that lingered around her and did not go away.
Tiffany pursed her lips as she said enchantingly, "H-Hendrey, I-I'm not ready yet."
With one hand blocking the distance between them and resisting his approach, she covered her chest with the other and murmured with her head lowered.
"Silly girl." Hendrey leaned over and kissed her lips. The kiss was intensely hot and insanely passionate.
None of them knew when the bathrobe on Tiffany's body fell to the ground. Instead, all the two knew that they were taking advantage of the hotel bed as they continued their vigorous activities.
The next day, Hendrey invited Veronica to go back to their hometown together. He lied to her, saying his car was being repaired so that he could ask Veronica for a ride.
Not knowing about his lies, Veronica readily agreed.
Veronica went to pick Hendrey up, and the two drove back to their hometown.
On the way, Veronica asked tentatively, "D-Do you like Tiffany very much?"
Hendrey thought of Tiffany's debauched appearance yesterday upon hearing that question. Boy, she was akin to those regulars in clubs. There was not even the slightest bit of nobility in her bones that was expected of an heiress like her.
At that thought, there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"Well, she's not bad," Hendrey replied, betraying his conscience.
As Veronica heard Hendrey's words, she leaned against the seat and turned her head to look out the window.
She knew exactly what had happened to Tiffany. From the beginning, when she liked Matthew, she had sex with other men in order to conceive a child for the sake of marrying Matthew until she was assaulted by the men sent by Melissa and was unable to have children due to a miscarriage. I know them all. Since then, Tiffany has been in a slump and has failed to recover from the setback. In addition, she even began to develop a 'what-the-hell' mentality and enjoyed all kinds of pleasures with Xavier.
Although Veronica knew that it was because Tiffany had suffered a colossal blow in life, she had gotten to where she was today because she had given up on herself.
So, despite how much Tiffany disgusted her, she could somehow grasp her despair in the 'darkness' too.
Although some factors were self-inflicted sins that led to her tragic ending today, it still could not change the fact that Melissa did send people to assault her, and Tiffany could no longer bear children after a miscarriage because of that. To most women, these two things were unbearable.
Pitiful and sad at the same time.
Whenever Veronica thought about this, she would develop sympathy for Tiffany.
Too bad she doesn't deserve it!
