104 Both Are Stubborn
“Dammit, again two people arbitrarily terminated the contract with me.” Zeline cursed angrily, looking at her cellphone screen which showed her private chat with the man who became the girl’s sugar daddy. “Why have I been dumped lately? Especially for almost the same reason. Why are they suddenly mentally weak like this, anyway?” Zeline continues to nag alone because the coffers of her money have to disappear.
“Afraid of being caught? Didn’t they say they liked a challenge from the start? What a cowardly ugly man!”
Zeline took out her cigarette case, intending to smoke a cigarette for the fifth time tonight. As usual, she was at the club, alone without being accompanied by anyone because Zeline did not want to be disturbed even if the president approached her. If she continues like this, she will have to rack her brain to find another man who can last a long time with her.
“Do I need to find an unmarried man like Arthur?” Zeline muttered, exhaling the cigarette smoke. Her brow furrowed when someone pulled a cigarette from her mouth and then sucked the cigarette into the person’s mouth.
“Dariel! Why are you taking my cigarettes?!” Zeline protested angrily.
Dariel decided to sit beside Zeline even though the girl protested and tried to push her out of her territory. “It’s no good you smoke.”
The corner of Zeline’s lips twitched in annoyance. How can Dariel say something like that while he is smoking Zeline’s cigarette. “You ignorant doctor. Why do you have to be here anyway? Go away, I’m not in the mood to be bothered!” the blonde girl shooed away curtly. From the moment she stepped foot into the club, Zeline had made up her mind that anyone who bothered her tonight would feel her witch-like anger.
Dariel did not care Zeline kept pushing his body, and he got a few punches even though it did not hurt so much. He threw the cigarette butt in the ashtray. “I heard you say you wanted to find a single man, did your sugar daddy run away again?” Daniel asked, making Zeline stop hitting the man.
“N-not running away! They terminated the contract because they were afraid that their wives would find out about the relationship,” Zeline answered, turning her gaze in another direction.
.....
“So you want to find another unmarried man?” Dariel asked curiously, bringing his face closer to the blonde girl.
“Fuck, your face is too close! Besides, how come you can hear it in the first place? I’m just talking nonsense,” Zeline snorted once more, taking a cigarette to smoke because today had been particularly stressful. It’s not just a problem with her sugar daddy, but a problem within the Zeline family.
Zeline was about to protest when Dariel snatched her cigarette again, even the half-cigarette box.
“Why can’t you just be with me?” Dariel offered. Staring at Zeline made the girl unable to express her displeasure. Zeline’s surprise dominates because Dariel is not usually this serious.
No, Zeline almost forgot that Dariel really often asked her to talk seriously like this.
“You won’t be able to pay for my life,” Zeline mocked, disparaging Dariel Mckenzie. “Besides, someone like you wouldn’t want to be cheated on even with five people at the same time, right? You will surely die if you pay for my living alone,” Zeline continued as she took a sip of her vodka.
“If I can?”
Zeline stopped drinking the alcohol and looked back at the man, who was still looking at her seriously. “Seems like you’re getting crazy to approach me, huh? Is it because we’ve had sex?” Zeline asked, raising an eyebrow.
After that day, they had sex because it was Dariel who expelled the man Zeline was targeting. Zeline has decided to forget the incident, despite the fact that Dariel’s play was not bad; it made the girl moan in pleasure. However, Zeline did not want to tell the truth because she did not want to make Dariel chase after her even more.
“If necessary, we better get married, I will be responsible for protecting and supporting you for the rest of your life,” Dariel said, making Zeline look at him in disbelief.
“Hey, are you drunk? Looks like you should be checked into the hospital. Is there a doctor here?”
“I’m the doctor, you idiot.”
Zeline snorted in annoyance, even though she meant to be joking, but Dariel still looked at her seriously and sharply like this. It felt like Zeline’s body felt hot in several parts as if Daniel’s eyes were emitting lasers that could penetrate her body.
“I can’t, Dariel. I told you I needed a sugar daddy, not a husband,” Zeline refused for the umpteenth time.
“What makes you so needy with an old man who already has a wife and children? I have a lot of money too!” Daniel pouted annoyed, whose heart does not hurt when his love keeps getting rejected? Moreover, compared to himself, who is not too old with a handsome face and good body, this little and naughty girl actually prefers a man like that. Dariel’s pride was hurt.
“Not everything is as you say, damn it! Your friend is also a sugar daddy! He’s handsome and unmarried, right?” Zeline defends herself.
Dariel shook his head as he wiggled his index finger, then said, “Arthur became a sugar daddy by your compulsion. He’s not included.”
Zeline rolled her eyes lazily, did not want to respond to Dariel for too long because it was possible that her head would explode if she continued arguing. She kept her distance from the man even more, but still. Dariel narrowed the distance.
“Argh, don’t come near! I’m in the mode of wanting to eat people alive!” Zeline growled annoyed, her face continuing to frown and glare at Daniel.
However, Dariel just smiled at her. “I’m serious about saying that, Zeline. Not only you, but your younger siblings will also be my dependents,” the man said.
“Y-you’re crazy.”
“Aren’t there any more swear words? You keep telling me you bastard, damn, crazy.”
“Because you’re like that! Didn’t I tell you before that I had to-”
“I know and I’m fine,” Daniel cut in.
Zeline swallowed her saliva, she turned her gaze in another direction because she could not stand to keep eye contact with Dariel, but the man turned her face to look back at him.
“You want to try it?” Zeline asked, trying hard not to look nervous, she smiled mischievously then touched the man’s chin coquettishly.
“Marriage is not a trial.”
“I-I haven’t agreed to marry yet!” Zeline exclaimed, reflexively slapping Dariel’s cheek, but luckily not so hard.
Dariel held his cheek, which became the object of the blonde girl’s violence. “Then be a sugar daddy, but you have to break the contract with your other daddy.” A final offer from Dariel.
Zeline was silent, thinking of a decision that was good and profitable for her. She is still not sure if Dariel will become his sugar daddy and make Zeline only depend on one man. It’s not that she does not trust Dariel’s finances, but she still has a bad conscience and feelings.
Zeline lives only with her twin brother and sister. They are still in middle school. Actually, Zeline is not a child from a poor family. However, the wheel is always turning. The family, which initially consisted of five members and was always blessed with wealth, had to suffer life when her father’s company went bankrupt and had huge debts. All facilities, even the house that became a shelter and shared the warmth, had to be confiscated. However, her family’s debt remains unresolved.
Zeline’s suffering did not end there, because her parents committed suicide because they could not cope with a life that made them even more tormented. Zeline was disappointed, how could her father and mother leave their three children, who were still small at the time. Even in the family of the father and mother, no one wants to help make Zeline bear her two younger siblings alone.
Her life is almost like Kalea’s. Where Zeline has had to work to earn money since she was a teenager to support her two younger siblings, who have an age gap of about seven years. Even until she was in college and became a sugar baby, the debt was not fully covered. Because it turns out that when their parents were still alive, they were very extravagant and cheated by their co-workers at that time. Zeline will not let her two younger siblings have to work while they are still in school. She wants them to focus on education and become successful people, unlike her.
Because of that, Zeline always rejected Dariel. She did not want to be a burden to the man, and her two younger siblings. As long as she could afford it, and even if it had to be something as despicable as being a sugar baby, she would. Throw away all self-respect, in order to get money faster and pay off her family’s debt.
“You better look for a dignified woman, it’s not something difficult for you, right?” Zeline asked as she grabbed the small glass of vodka back. Her throat went dry from continuing to speak loudly to Dariel.
“It’s not hard for me. What’s hard is to make you mine. After all, what I want is you, the person in front of me right now. Then why do I have to go all the way to find her again?”
Cough!
Zeline choked, and Dariel is getting louder and louder to reveal the man’s heart to Zeline.
