Chapter 119 Lucy’s MoneyGrabbing Scheme.

Lucy burst out the door, tears streaming down her face as she stumbled forward. Her hair whipped around in the cold: wind, sticking to her tearstreaked cheeks. Her halfopen blouse revealed a thin camisole that glinted under the streetlights, making her look fragile

As she stepped onto the street, the dim streetlights stretched her shadow long and thin, making her took lonely and helpless. Sniffling, she stumbled forward in a daze

She hadn’t gone far when she heard footsteps behind her Someone was following her. She clicked her tongue in annoyance. Looks like I’ve got someone’s attention. Robbery? Or something worse?

At first, she planned to go straight back to campus. But then she had an idea and decided to put on another act. On the outside, she looked clueless, but her eyes were secretly checking her surroundings

She spotted a surveillance camera on a streetlight pole. A plan popped into her head. As long as she stayed in view of the camera, the person behind her wouldn’t dare do anything

A little smirk tugged at the corner of her lips. Without hesitating, she turned into a dark, unmonitored alley.

She calmly pulled out her phone, acting all calm, but her voice trembled when she spoke. Hello, 9117 Someone’s following me, and I’m scared. Please send help now!She hung up and slowly stepped out of the shadows.

Just then, the shadowy figure appeared at the alley entrance. In the faint moonlight, Lucy could see it was a tall man. A sly smile spread across her face. Followed me all this way? Did I catch your eye?

The man looked stunned, clearly not used to dealing with a woman like her. His face showed confusion and surprise

Lucy walked closer, her voice all sugary. Hey, handsome, there’s a motel up ahead. Why don’t we go there?

The man said nothing.

Before he could react, Lucy wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning in close. Her breath brushed his ear as she whispered, Come on, doesn’t that sound like fun?

The man hesitated for a second, but his desire got the better of him. You look so innocent, but I didn’t expect you to be such a tease,” he said, grinning nastily.

Lucy’s smile got wider, but her eyes flashed with disgust. Isn’t that what you like?she said, sounding playful.

Of course, I do, the man replied, his heavy breathing brushing her neck as he reached for her waist.

In a flash, Lucy’s knee shot up, hitting him right between the legs. The man let out a loud yelp, doubling over and clutching his groin.

Lucy stepped back, watching him like it was all part of her plan, not looking like she was going to run.

It took the man a while to recover from the pain. When he finally stood up, his eyes were full of rage. You bitch! When I catch you, I’ll make you pay,he snarled, lunging at her

Lucy let out a scared scream and took off running, her voice echoing in the alley. The man chased after her, and they. sprinted all the way to the entrance of Turner’s apartment complex. The area was bright and had surveillance cameras everywhere.

Right there, Lucy slowed down on purpose, letting the man catch up to her. Let go of me! Nohelp-!she screamed, struggling wildly, her voice cutting through the quiet night.

Help? Too late for that now, you slut!the man growled, tearing at her clothes with all his strength. Her white shirt ripped in an instant, leaving her in just a thin camisole

Lucy let out a sharp cry, clutching her body and trembling, her eyes full of fear. Just as things got really bad, the police showed up and quickly took the man down.

Lucy kept her head down, hiding her expression. In the shadows, a triumphant smile played on her lips.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the curtains and hit Turner’s face, making his eyes hurt. He woke up with headache so bad it felt like someone had hit him with a hammer. Groaning, he rubbed his temples, trying to make the pain

So, she brought me home Turner sighed in relief, but it was short lived. His eyes locked onto the footage of Lucy rushing out. Her hair was a mess, her face pale and streaked with tears. She was clutching her arms and looked really upset Turner stared at the screen, his breath catching His eyes widened in shock What the hell happened last night? Did I really lose control after drinking too much? No way I’m not that kind of person I couldn’t have done something like that could 17 But the footage was right there, clear as day. He couldn’t ignore it, no matter how much he wanted to

Turner knew he had to find Lucy and figure out what happened. After freshening up and changing, he headed for the door But as he reached the entryway, he saw a Maybach umbrella on the cabinet.

Bits of a conversation from the bar came back to him. He vaguely remembered asking her to take him home Turner sighed and shook his head, thinking. Tve drunk too much. What kind of idiot asks a girl he barely knows to take him home?

Tumer stared at the umbrella for a moment before opening the door.

Inside the elevator, he heard two middle aged women talking

It’s all over online.

It’s not safe.

Turner froze, his heart sinking Are they talking about that girl? Did she get attacked because she was helping me? The thought hit him like a gut punch, and guilt washed over him. He rushed downstairs to the security office to check the surveillance footage. Sure enough, it showed Lucy. Her scared expression in the video made Turner’s chest tighten. He drove to the police station instead of going to the university to find Lucy, because he didn’t know her name. At the police station, he learned that Lucy had narrowly escaped an assault, thanks to the police. He also got her name and phone number.

At a coffee shop across from the university, warm sunlight filled the room, making golden spots on the wooden table. Turner and Lucy sat across from each other.

Lucy looked really nervous, clutching her clothes so tight her knuckles were white. Her eyes darted around like she was still scared from last night.
