Chapter 3 A New Life
After that, I did not want to stay in Denver another day. I packed up my belongings and returned to my hometown immediately.
When my parents learned of my divorce, they were both stunned. When they realized the situation, my father was silent and just fumed, while my mother could not help but say, "Divorce is no big deal, but you should not walk out of the house penniless. He's the one who made mistakes. Is not this a good thing for him and that bitch?" At that, she lowered her head and sobbed.
I comforted them, "I don't need him anymore. He can do whatever he likes. From now on, I will focus on myself so that I can brink back what I lost"
My mother still persisted, "But... but you will suffer!"
I was driven by the emotions of my parents. My wounds were scabbed over, but my eyes were moist. I had no choice. After a few days of being so sad, I figured I could not have the whole family crying every day. So I started going out again. Days passed and I began to look for work around my hometown, but I could not find a suitable one.
After spending the new year holiday at home, I returned to Denver. It was not that I still had attachment there but just that I had stayed here ever since I was 18 years old. I had been here for several years and was more familiar with the life here.
I found a job as an assistant in Denver, which was my familiar ground. First, I did chores and didn't have to do the important work I applied for. I just often ran errands. I rented a house near the company. After a period of time, my life was became stable again.
One day, when I was about to get off work, my boss, who always kept a straight face, suddenly said to me, "Darcey, here is a document. Take it and send it to this address."
After that, I immediately went to do it. Although I felt a little uncomfortable, but it was a task assigned to me so I couldn't refuse. I took the address and documents and quickly head out.
The discomfort on my body came and went quickly. I felt better before I reached the destination. It seemed that people still have to go out and walk frequently, so I didn't take this matter to my heart.
According to the address, I needed to send the document to a high-end community, which was close to home, but I had never noticed it before. I explained who I was and which company I belong to before the security guard let me in. Originally, I didn't want to go up, but this was my task after all, so I should send it myself. I didn't want to make any mistakes.
I went up the stairs and found the address. I pressed the doorbell for a long time, but no one answered. Just as I was about to give up, the door suddenly opened. I quickly handed him the briefcase, hoping to complete the task so I could leave quickly. But I did not expect him to grab me and try to kiss me.
I quickly stopped him, but it didn't work. While we were fighting, I saw that his hair was wet and the only clothing he had on was the bath towel.
"A man dressed like that to open the door for strangers is either a pervert or a psycho! Judging from what he did to me, he must be a pervert!" I thought and gave him a crucial kick. Then I rushed up to him and slapped him!
After we separated and both calmed down. I saw who he was and blurted out almost subconsciously, "Mr... Mr. Stone!"
Gavin, who we had not met for a long time, looked very embarrassed. When he saw who I was clearly, his eyes became more stern and he said angrily, "It's you? I didn't expect you to be a prostitute after divorce."
Obviously, I couldn't figure it out what was happening and explained to him quickly. "No... Mr. Stone, please listen to me. I don't know what's going on here but it's not what you think!"
"I don't care what you do. Anyway, I am your customer now, and my needs always come first!" He said, looking around and said, "Aren't you just for money? I have a lot!"
"No... Mr. Stone, you still don't understand. I really don't know what you are talking about because I'm just here to deliver a file!"
I didn't know if Gavin had heard my explanation. He pulled out a wad of bills from his wallet and threw at me. Then he pounced on me and proceeded his invasions. We twisted together. Because of this, I felt even uncomfortable. Before I could push Gavin away, I threw up on him who was completely naked.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
