After Divorce, My General Husband Chasin… 1/5 

Chapter 44 Guard Your Life 

Claire exclaimed in shock, “What?” 

The word “virgin” caused her to freeze. She gaped in an instant 

as she stared at Hannah. Her feet seemed rooted to the spot, 

unable to move. 

The cacophony of voices from the room ahead still echoed in her ears, but Hannah’s question conjured images of naked men and women in her mind. 

Did Hannah’s inquiry about her virginity imply something 

ominous? 

Despite her long–standing awareness that her fate might involve the sacrifice of her purity, Claire was unprepared for the immediacy of the threat mere minutes after arriving in Eclipse Nightclub’s basement.

Despite having steeled herself mentally more times than she could count, when the moment finally unfolded before her, Claire found herself unexpectedly disarmed. 

Overwhelmed, she found her voice failing her, unable to string together even the simplest of sentences. 

“Forget it. Let’s discuss this later. We should go in now,” Hannah said.

2/5 

Noting Claire’s pallor, Hannah was accustomed to such reactions. Asking no further questions, she opened the door and led Claire inside. 

Contrary to her expectations, Claire found the scene inside not what she had imagined. 

Men and women mingled, but each was dressed in various styles. 

They were adorned in an array of enchanting costumes. Some spun from the pages of fairy tales with flowing gowns and princely tunics, others in the crisp, playful uniforms of maids or the quintessential student look. Then there were those in daringly scant attire, where the fabric was a mere whisper over the skin, covering just the essentials. 

Yet, it resembled a staff backstage area more than anything else. 

“Everyone, stop for a moment. We have a newcomer,” Hannah announced. 

She clapped her hands. The room fell silent instantly. 

“Hannah!” they chorused, gathering around Hannah and Claire. 

“This newcomer is different from you. She won’t be doing anything for now; she’ll just follow me. 

“We’ll discuss her role once she’s familiar with everything here. Now, back to your duties. Greet the guests and clean up as needed.

“And remember, it’s almost the end of the month; check your performances. The top ranker will lead next month!” 

With that, Hannah took Claire out of the room. 

3/5 

The moment Claire and Hannah stepped out, the room snapped back to its original state of disarray. 

The following days were surprisingly easy for Claire. 

Each day, she trailed behind Hannah, navigating the labyrinthine depths of Eclipse Nightclub. Yet, within mere days, Claire had mapped out the intricate underground network. 

She realized this was not the same place Frederick had taken her before. 

Yet, regardless of the veracity of her initial perceptions, Claire found herself taken aback by how unexpectedly straightforward life within these walls had become. 

She had braced herself to teeter on the brink of danger on the very first day, akin to her experience in prison, where every second could spiral into a desperate fight for survival. 

Life here was unexpectedly comfortable. Yet, escape was impossible. 

Employees discarded their old clothes upon arrival, with the club providing all attire.

4/5 

Each uniform bore a special symbol, a mark that bound them to Eclipse Nightclub’s underground. 

Claire harbored no desire to leave; the Halfmoon Manor and prison had been less comfortable than this. 

Ironically, Eclipse Nightclub’s basement was the most pleasant place she had lived in years, even though she once baked in luxury within the Prescott family’s embrace. 

However, Claire knew this tranquility was a lull before the 

storm.
