Catherine was sitting across from Kota, and he could not help but laugh as he looked at her.
He would not have any improper thoughts about such a woman before this, as the gap between them was too big.
But now things were different.
Name: Emma Catherine
Gender: Female
Age: 21
List of desires: [1. Solve the biggest crisis in the family.]
[2. Don’t want to have anything to do with that disgusting fiancé.]
[3. I hope Kota can help me get through the crisis today. It’s best to solve the marriage crisis permanently.]
[you may browse more if you open it.]
With no hesitation, Kota opened up all of Catherine’s wish lists when she opened her mouth.
Catherine was different; her wish lists were short. There were only five of them.
Apparently, Catherine was a very single-minded woman.
Or it could be said that she had suppressed her desires.
Hence, there were very few of them.
For example, Taylor, who was clearly a student, had 20 items in her list of desires.
It was the same for others.
But Catherine had only five.
[1. Solve the biggest crisis in the family.]
[2. Don’t want to have anything to do with that disgusting fiancé.]
[3. I hope Kota can help me tide over the difficulties today. It would be best if I could solve the crisis of my marriage forever.]
[4. If marriage is unavoidable, then I will choose to travel far away with a man and enjoy the pleasure of being a woman before that. I will then make this trip public, throwing the family of the man who wants to cause shame to the entire family of the man who wants to get his hands on me.]
[After doing all this, I will go to the deepest sea in the world and end my life there.]
Kota looked up at that cold and beautiful face in disbelief.
No wonder this woman had a short wish list.
She had been under pressure.
Kota felt he had entered Hathaway’s world.
He roughly understood the situation.
Catherine’s family was facing a crisis, so her family wanted to get a chance to survive through an arranged marriage. Catherine became a victim of the scheme. She did not love that man, whom she felt disgusted at seeing.
If she did not do this, her family would definitely perish. If she did this, she would choose to end her life.
This woman was under a pressure that she was supposed not to have.
And she would use him, becoming a knife in her hand.
But Kota, who had a desire list now, would not fall into this trap.
He planned to set a trap and get all the benefits.
If Catherine did well, he would also use her to do what he wanted, and even get everything from her.
A major family was also a good springboard for Kota.
Upon thinking of this, Kota walked up to Catherine.
Catherine held Kota’s arm with no hesitation.
In Cathrine’s eyes, Kota was interested in her, and she knew in her heart that he only wanted her body.
And if he met her expectations today, she did not discount the possibility of fulfilling his wishes tonight.
Since she had lost the meaning of life, she might as well choose a random man and give himself up.
Besides, she found Kota not a terrible choice after all.
In the Metropolis of New York, there were many things happening every day, and too many people wantonly expressed their desires.
At night, they would be released endlessly.
Just like the grand banquet hall in front of them, there were all kinds of people shuttling in and out of it. They were dressed in suits and fine shoes, using their most gorgeous side of them to seduce and release their desires.
Kota turned to Catherine and said, “I’ll help you.”
It stunned Catherine to hear that.
Why did this man say that?
Could it be that he knew my intention of calling him over?
Kota retracted her arm and shrugged. “By the look of your expression, you seem to face some difficulties. But they are not difficulties for me, no matter what they are!”
A smile broke out on Catherine’s face upon seeing Kota’s serious face.
This man was very observant. He had guessed a part of it, he still did not know what was coming.
Catherine had a trace of guilt inside her.
But, from her point of view, they were just taking whatever they wanted.
A man needed a woman to make himself proud.
A woman would give him some benefits.
She might even sleep with him.
Perhaps he would agree to such a deal.
With this thought in mind, she subconsciously tightened his grip on Kota’s arm.
“The difficulties that can be solved aren’t difficulties, are they?”
Kota’s eyes were filled with ambivalence as he said with a smile.
“Is that so? But there is a limit to what humans can do. There are always things that humans can’t do. There are just too many examples of this. Among them is death, which humans can never escape.”
Kota chose not to speak anymore but walked forward upon hearing what she said.
This woman might have lost all hope by now.
What she said was the truth.
But that only applied to humans.
He now had a power that surpassed that of humans.
Catherine held his arm and followed him.
