She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 953

Helena’s pupils dilated. "You…"

He was willing to help? Morris Lonsdale wanted to help her? The untouchable god she secretly worshipped was offering to indulge her darkest secret?

Was she hallucinating?

"Are you serious?" she had to ask, because the offer felt like a massive, twisted gift dropped from the heavens. It was simply too surreal. The aloof, elegantly refined, famously disciplined pianist was casually offering to facilitate her dirty, desperate habit.

"I am entirely serious. And this isn't out of charity or pity."

Helena couldn't wrap her head around it. "But why?"

Morris’s voice remained even as he explained his rationale. "I am a profoundly boring man. Recitals, rehearsals, contract negotiations—everything in my life is perfectly controlled and utterly predictable. The repetition has left me exhausted. My life is a stagnant pool of water. It's too quiet. But you… you possess this chaotic, uncontrolled, beautifully flawed edge that I completely lack. I want to watch it."

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, Morris had never been groomed for the ruthless corporate grind like his older brother, nor had he rebelled and dived into shady underworld dealings like his younger brother. He was the family's golden standard of morality, an elegant, noble figure who never stepped out of line.

But it was precisely this flawless, desireless existence that left him feeling empty. He had played music his entire life, yet sometimes, looking at the grand piano in front of him, he felt nothing but a crushing sense of apathy.

Now, he had found a key that might finally unlock something interesting.

Helena’s lips trembled. "You want to watch me masturbate?"

Morris neither confirmed nor denied it. He simply said, "If you're willing, you can show me exactly what you look like when you drop all your defenses."

He had casually stepped right over the boundary of social morality and extended a hand to pull her across.

Helena stared at him. She knew exactly what he meant by dropping her defenses. He wanted her to lay bare her ugliest, most pathetic, most shameful self, and let him analyze it.
