“Hey, buddy! In a place like this, you and I are equals. We’re not superior and subordinate. Anyway, the money is on me. So, just have fun!” Derrick said generously. 

Two women immediately fell into Emmanuel’s arms. 

Emmanuel didn’t expect Derrick to be so generous and loyal. Honestly, part of him was wary that Derrick was using this as a tool to try and win him over. 

Unfortunately, he wasn’t acting at all. He genuinely didn’t like any form of deception. Besides, he was becoming increasingly uncomfortable while being held by women! 

Emmanuel couldn’t tolerate the women’s advances. So, he quickly pushed them away and sat next to Derrick, saying, “Mr. Finch, I see many people are targeting this so-called goddess tonight. How much money do you think it would take to win her over?” 

This wasn’t just his way of changing the subject, but also his attempt to investigate Derrick’s financial 

resources. 

If he truly was an undercover agent sent by Magnus, then the money he used to purchase Hannah’s shares had to have come from Magnus. If that were the case, Derrick’s spending limit shouldn’t be too high. 

Yet, Derrick unexpectedly responded seriously, “How vulgar!” 

Emmanuel was stunned. 

The hostesses around him were also dumbfounded! 

“Haven’t you heard? That lady is not selling her body. Instead, she’s selling her art. Since she has come to a place like this, she must be searching for a soulmate. I’m prepared to move her with genuine feelings. If she can be bought with money, wouldn’t she have lost her value long ago?” 

Derrick’s words left the hostesses around him speechless. 

Emmanuel found himself growing even more contemptuous of Derrick! 

He would have believed it if he were someone else. However, he had long seen through this sleazy man’s true colors. So, what was this despicable man getting at now? 

Could it be that his suspicions were true? Was this guy really an undercover agent sent by Magnus? Perhaps that was why he couldn’t afford to spend a significant amount tonight. 

Or… was Derrick using this rhetoric because he was wary of him? 

As Emmanuel pondered the possibilities, he quickly smiled and said, “Mr. Finch is right. However, I do have my own opinions on matters like this. Personally, I am very averse to the phrase ‘selling my art but not selling my body’!” 

“Oh, why is that?” Derrick asked curiously. 

“Mr. Finch, think about it! If she truly wants to sell her art, why didn’t she seek a better way to make a living? There are plenty of talent shows and variety shows that serve that exact purpose. Why does she have to come to a nightclub to sell her art?”

Emmanuel continued to analyze, saying, “What is a nightclub? It’s a place where men spend money to have fun. She’s only here to get a better deal. That’s why she’s deliberately using this kind of disguise, right?” 

Clap!Clap!Clap! 

The hostesses immediately applauded Emmanuel. 

They didn’t know if Emmanuel’s words had caused Derrick to see the truth. However, they couldn’t deny that Emmanuel’s words had struck a chord with them! 

They despised this pretentious woman even more than Emmanuel. Unfortunately, she was selling incredibly well. So, all they could do was envy and resent her in private! 

“Haha, well said!” 

When Derrick saw this, he also laughed heartily and handed a stack of cash to Emmanuel. “Take this $20,000 and spend it! If you can help me win over this goddess tonight, I will definitely reward you generously!” 

Uhm. 

Emmanuel hesitated momentarily before smiling and saying, “Thank you, Mr. Finch!” 

He had used this opportunity to make his stance clear. Although he didn’t have a clear insight into Derrick’s true motives, he had gained $20,000 out of it. Plus, he had also managed to get rid of the women who were clinging to him like annoying limpets. 

Emmanuel quickly made an excuse to go to the restroom and slipped away.
