Chapter 16 She Has Nothing Left
Olive hurried down the dark corridor, her arms unconsciously wrapped around herself, as if that was the only way that she could feel safer.
Louis‘ words weren’t pleasant to hear, but they were the truth.
She was nothing more than a lady of the night now, selling herself as a form of entertainment. What right did she have to feel proud or virtuous?
The Olive Swanson of today was no longer the stunning and heilliant daughter of the Swansons from before. She had nothing left
But her basic sense of shanse was still intact. Even if she and Solana had to starve to death on the streets, she would still never resort to selling her body. That was the last shred of dignity she would cling to
Sylvie was puzzled when she found Olive curled up in a dark comer, and she walked over to take a seat next to her.
Snowdrop, str. Dickmite didn’t give you a hard time, did he?” Sylvie asked.
Olive, sensing someone next to her, raised her head to look at Sylvie before shaking her head.
iting turn to go on?”
Sylvie nodded. She then watched as Olive struggled to stand up before slowly maling her way to the middle of the stage.
Once she finished a song, someone passed a message to olive saying that someone had personally requested her to join them for drinks.
After what happened the last time, she didn’t dare to refuse straight away. If she got on Louis‘ bad side and lost her job because of it, then what would happen to
Thus, she had no choice but to go
The person who requested her was once again Perry Leicaster. The moment she entered the private room, she found it filled with men and women.
After the previous events, she was naturally more careful with how she handled things this time. While they played drinking games, Percy tried to get handsy with her, but she managed to wold his touch each time,
Attust, she assumed that they would call it a night once the drinks were finished.
However, Percy hadn’t gotten his way last time, so he naturally wasn’t about to let her go so easily now. He had thought that she had some connection to Connor previously but now it seemed like there was no relation cliere at all. Thus, he was even more brazen and demanded that Olive spend the night with him.
When Olive declined him, he couldn’t exactly do anything about it either, not when there were some Stratusville Smarts in the private room as well. Thus, Olive assumed that the matter was over.
What she didn’t expect, however, was for someone to grab her hair the mouent she stepped out of the room, sending a sharp pain shooting across her scalp She was dragged by her hair into a dark comer where an dry, cold voler rang out above her.
“ried playing mire, but you dared to throw it back in my face? Do you actually think you’re somebody who matters?”
The words had just left Percy’s mouth when he slamined her head into the wall, and the brutal impact made Olive teel like her still was about to explode.
Before she couldn react, Perry kicked her hard in the stomach, sending her tumbling to the floor. The pain that coursed through her reminded her of the bearings she had endused in prison.
Yet, she didn’t make a sound and only suffered quietly through his relentless kicks. It wasn’t until Percy reached out to tear her dress off that she started to fight back
“Get away from me!” live villed
But the more the resisted, the more rated Perry became
As the commotion grew louder, it naturally began to draw the attention of others. Most people didn’t dare step forward to help, and they only watched as Olive’s clothes were torn apart and her face became covered in blood The glaring red handprint across her cheek was an even more shocking sight to behold.
“Get away from you? I refuse to believe that I can’t have my way with you tonight!”
Percy was drunk, so even his words were unroutİL
Just as Olive started to lose all lupe, a deep, magnetic voler sounded from behind them.
“Let go of her!”
