"A-Ah!"
A hysterical cry pierced the atmosphere; it was the kind of scream that made everyone's blood run cold. Most of the people were so frightened that they clamped their eyes shut.
"Honey, let’s go!"
Fane grabbed the woven bag and swung it over his shoulder. He looked at the part-timer and said, "Do you still want to stay here? Go, now!"
The woman was stunned at the scene before her, and i t was only after Fane called to her that she came back t o reality. She quickly followed Fane and the others as they left the KTV.
"Don’t ever come to work in such a place anymore!" Selena reprimanded her. "Why did you even think of working here in the first place? What do you do?" she asked, her forehead creasing as she did so.
The woman looked at Fane and Selena, and she knelt before them. "Thank you so much for saving me! My n -name is Jessica Fair, and I work in the Labor and Social Security Bureau. However, because my father is so sick, I had to work some side jobs to earn and pay for his operation fee. We’ve sold out our house, and yet we're still short of some money. I had no other choice but to work here for the money."
Tears pooled in her eyes when she thought of her father's situation. "Their recruitment announcement has clearly stated that this job is only required to drink with the guests, but not to sleep with them. I-I truly didn't expect to have encountered this group of b *stards on my third day. I..."
Tears welled up at the corners of her eyes as she described her experience. She looked even more pitiful and distressing.
The employees looked at each other, wordlessly, breathing out a series of sighs. They believed Jessica would not have taken this path if it were not for her father.
Selena had always been kind-hearted. She turned her head toward Fane and without hesitation, spoke," Fane, why don't we help her? This is too distressing. I don’t think I could sleep tonight if we simply walk away."
A small and gentle smile hung at Fane's lips. "Honey, this beautiful heart of yours is a drug to my vein. I thought of that as well, but I never expected you to bring it up first!"
