BXBX NOVEL Chapter 20 - 20: Prostitution More Acceptable Than Poverty
“Pete, we… We’ll pay!”
May shuddered with fear when she heard what Peter said. She quickly stammered out a response before taking out her phone and started making calls.
Lily was cowering beside May and had also started contacting her friends.
Even though May and Lily came from well-off families, they had not reached the point of being wealthy.
As such, fifty thousand dollars was a huge sum to them.
Ten minutes later, the two of them had contacted all of their friends on Facebook.
However, no one was willing to lend the two of them money.
“May, what do we do now? None of my friends are willing to lend me some money…”
Lily said in a choked voice. She was feeling so anxious that she was about to cry.
“How would I know what to do? All of my friends are saying they don’t have money…” May said helplessly while frowning.
Lily hesitated for a moment and said lowly, “May, I heard from Mandy today that Connor might have hit the jackpot for a lottery scratchcard. That’s why he had the money to treat everyone to a meal yesterday. Why don’t you give him a call and ask him to lend the two of us some money?”
“We humiliated him badly yesterday. Would he still lend us money?” May asked hesitantly.
“Well, we can’t find anyone else right now. Why don’t we give it a try…”
“Alright!” May nodded helplessly and dialed Connor’s number.
In the classroom.
Connor saw May’s incoming call. He did not even have to think to know what was happening, so he immediately declined her call.
May did not give up. She dialed his number again.
“Who’s this?” Connor asked with an unfamiliar tone.
“Connor, it’s me. I need a hundred thousand dollars right now. Could you lend it to me?”
May looked down on Connor from the bottom of her heart, but she was completely out of ideas right now.
“Why should I lend you money?” Connor said coldly.
“You…” May was stunned when she heard what he said. She then gritted her teeth and said, “Connor, didn’t you recently break up with Mandy? If you lend me some money today, then I’ll be your girlfriend. You know my looks aren’t far from Mandy’s. Besides, I have a better body than Mandy…”
“You want to be my girlfriend?”
Connor could not help but laugh. He then said playfully, “You think you’re worthy?”
“Connor, aren’t you taking things too far? Isn’t it just a jackpot from a lottery scratchcard? Aren’t I worthy of being your girlfriend?” May felt angry and embarrassed.
“Alright, I’m done wasting my breath… Okay, I can go over there and save you. But I have one condition. You and I will spend the night at a hotel together. How’s that?” Connor said slowly.
“You…”
When May heard what he said, she immediately blushed. She did not expect Connor to be this shameless.
“I’ll let you think for half a minute. After all, call charges are pretty expensive!” Connor said coldly.
May held her phone and could not help but turn to where the blond guy was. Right now, she had to choose between the blond guy and Connor.
While Connor was a little on the poor side, he had pretty decent looks. Moreover, he had a burly figure from delivering food all year round and exuded a presence of manliness.
If May had to choose between the two of them, she would rather choose Connor.
’It’s just spending a night with him. This is better than being in the hands of the blond goon.’
Tve said some things that humiliated the blond guy yesterday. Who knows what he’ll do to me if I spend the night with him.’
May weighed her options. She bit her lip and said, “Alright, Connor. I’ll do it!”
Connor immediately hung up after hearing her response. He felt a little emotional.
‘The May Young who used to humiliate me in every possible way is now willing to sleep with me for one hundred thousand dollars.’
In this world, prostitution was more acceptable than poverty..
