“I need to pay you back for my dad’s gambling debts, the nursing home fees, and his medical bills. I don’t wanna owe you money, and I definitely don’t wanna owe you favors.”

Daniel stared at Zoe, a hint of disappointment in his eyes. “You’ve got such a pretty mouth, yet you say the coldest things. I just helped you out, and you wanna cut ties with me without giving me anything in return?”

“What do you want in return?” Zoe frowned and looked at him.

Daniel teased her. “At the very least, you could offer yourself to me.”

Zoe let out a soft laugh. She glanced down at the ground, thought for a second, then looked back up at him. “So you helped me because you wanted something from me?”

Daniel didn’t hide his intentions. He nodded honestly.

Zoe held out the bank card toward him again.

“I told you, you don’t have to pay me back,” Daniel said.

Zoe’s heart raced, but she kept a calm exterior. “Fine. Then how many times?”

“How many times for what?” Daniel furrowed his brows in confusion.

Zoe lifted the bank card. “You won’t take the 200 thousand. Then I’ll pay you with my body. How many times do I owe you?”

Daniel froze, caught off guard.

It took him a long moment to process her words. He chuckled quietly, his ears turning pink. He glanced around awkwardly before looking back at her, clearly flustered. “Are you saying you wanna sell yourself to pay me back?”

Zoe nodded without hesitation.

Daniel pressed a hand to his forehead. His breathing quickened, and he swallowed hard. “I was just joking. I don’t want you paying me back like this. You really don’t have to pay me back.”

“I’m being serious.”

She was drowning in debt anyway. Her innocence meant nothing to her now.

Besides, she was 30 years old. She had never been with a man, never even kissed anyone.

It would be a regret if she died without ever experiencing it.

On top of that, Daniel was attractive. He had that kind of good looks that appealed to everyone, and he had a great body too.

She had nothing to lose.

Daniel thought quietly for a moment and spoke in a low voice. “I only want it for free.”

Zoe’s mouth dropped open in shock. She then let out a cold huff. “I can’t believe you. You just wanna get it for free? That’s shameless.”

Daniel stepped closer until he stood right in front of her. He leaned down and pressed his mouth near her ear.

Zoe’s heart skipped a beat. She stayed stiff and still. He was way too close. She could feel his warm body heat and smell the faint clean scent on him.

His deep, raspy voice brushed against her ear with every warm breath, sending tingles down her spine.

“Free things are always the most expensive. If we talk money, it’s just a transaction.”

Zoe’s ear tickled, and she wanted to pull away.

Despite her age, she was completely inexperienced in this aspect.

Zoe gathered her courage and spoke firmly. “Alright. I won’t pay you back. It’s free between us. No transaction.”

Daniel wrapped one arm gently around her slender waist. His voice dropped to a husky murmur, barely audible. “You’re the one who wants to sleep with me, aren’t you?”

Zoe tensed up and swallowed nervously.

His large hand felt strong against her waist, making her heart pound wildly.

She truly only wanted to repay his kindness. She didn’t want to owe him anything.

If he refused money, she would give him what he wanted.

“Do you want me or not?” Her cheeks burned hot.

“I do.” The words came out firm and unwavering.

“How many times?”

Daniel could still hear the business–like tone in her voice. She planned to cut ties with him once their deal was done.

“Once,” he answered without any hesitation.

Zoe was caught off guard by his answer. Only once?

Between adults, this kind of thing was never that hard to talk about.

“Okay. Right now?”

“I still have work at my company. Next time.”

“Alright. Text me when you’re free.”

Daniel slowly loosened his hold on her waist and took a step back. “I’ll drive you home.”

Zoe kept her head down, too embarrassed to look at him. Talking about such intimate things left her flustered.

The car ride back was dead silent. After confirming their arrangement, Zoe grew incredibly nervous. She no longer felt calm around him.

She blushed every time their eyes met.

Her mind kept imagining him pushing her down, taking his time with her.
