There were claw marks all over his muscular back. The very look of it gave Flossie goosebumps.
“T-This…”
Like a child who had made a mistake, she spoke in a very soft voice in hopes that she could turn the tables. “Who did that? It’s inhumane.”
But no matter what it was, it surely couldn’t be her.
Based on how well she knew herself, she didn’t have much experience. How could she have done such a thing? Halston must’ve been played by another woman who wanted to put the blame on her!
“What do you think?” Halston turned around after hearing Flossie’s murmurs. He directly leaned against her and smiled. “Do you want me to reenact the scene? Will that help you remember?”
They were very close to each other. It felt intimate.
Flossie reached out in an attempt to push him away, but he grabbed her hands hard, preventing her from moving.
“Tell me, what are you going to do about this? You hurt me physically and mentally last night. How will you make it up to me?” Halston asked.
Flossie didn’t have many layers on, and she also felt guilty, the reason she didn’t dare to move. It was rare that she was so docile and submissive, allowing Halston to do whatever he wanted to her.
By now, her cheeks were flushed. She avoided her gaze while she tried to reason with him. “It’s already happened. There’s nothing I can do about it.
You’re a man. What’s wrong with being taken advantage of? Didn’t you enjoy it?
“If you didn’t enjoy it, you could’ve resisted. Since you didn’t do that, it proved that you admit you enjoyed it. How can you blame me then?”
Halston pursed his lips. “I tried to resist, but it didn’t work. You know how strong you are, don’t you?” He asked.
“Well…” Flossie glanced at the ridiculous scratch marks on his body and suddenly felt less sure about her line of reasoning. “You should think about whether your outfit was too revealing. Did you use suggestive body language? Were you intentionally seducing me?”
“As a man, especially an attractive one, you should abide by modest virtues. Don’t flirt all the time. If you can’t even protect yourself, how can you expect others to protect you? If you tell people that you were ‘bullied’ on the internet, they’ll only say you deserved it!”
“…” Halston was speechless.
What was wrong with him? Why was he arguing with her about this?
In the end, Flossie still felt a little guilty. She started coaxing him. “Alright, alright. Don’t be sad. I acted too rashly and didn’t take your feelings into consideration… I’ll transfer some money to your account later. You can buy some supplements like ginseng, wolfberries, and oysters. Come on. You’re a man. You’re supposed to be tougher than this!”
“…” Halston remained silent.
Seeing how Halston stopped complaining, she thought she must’ve succeeded in consoling him. She immediately sighed in relief.
She sat upright and looked around the room. She wanted to find her clothes and put them on so that she could leave.
Regardless of what ridiculous things she did last night, it was in the past. Since she couldn’t remember anything, that also meant nothing had happened. She wasn’t going to get all tangled up with this guy!
Flossie’s clothes were scattered all across the room. Her underwear was even left hanging on the couch. It was very striking.
“So… If there’s nothing else, can you please leave? I want to get dressed,” Flossie said.
Why couldn’t Halston take the hint and leave? Why did she need to point it out?
Halston cooperated by turning around. “Go ahead. I won’t look.”
Flossie felt speechless. This wasn’t a matter of whether he looked or not!
However, she wasn’t bothered to argue with him.
Anyway, this wasn’t the first time they had sex-they’d seen each other naked before, and it wasn’t a big deal.
Flossie lifted the blanket and quickly picked up her scattered clothes. She felt much more at ease after putting them on.
“I’m leaving. Thanks for last night,” Flossie said while brushing her hair.
Halston sneered. “You’re a heartless woman. Once you get what you want, you’re gone.”
Flossie chuckled. “What do you want me to do? Do I need to take responsibility?”
“Not to that extent…” Halston turned around and looked at her affectionately. “If you have needs like this in the future, feel free to come to me.”
“You!” Flossie was embarrassed and angry at the same time. She picked up a nearby pillow and hurled it against his face. “Men are all jerks. I can’t believe I felt bad for you for a second. Yucks! How can men ever be taken advantage of? Save it! I’d rather become a nun than do something like this with you again!”
Halston wasn’t angry at all. It seemed he was making a prediction. “Don’t speak so confidently. Otherwise, you’ll end up slapping yourself in the face.”
Flossie stormed out of the room and bumped into Halston’s friends, who happened to be there for a gathering…antage of? Didn’t you enjoy it?
“If you didn’t enjoy it, you could’ve resisted. Since you didn’t do that, it proved that you admit you enjoyed it. How can you blame me then?”
“Flossie, why are you in front of Halston’s room? Did you two…” Xavier was the first to gasp.
The others, including Christopher, who were from wealthy families, all appeared equally surprised.
Flossie cleared her throat and pretended to be calm. “I came here to talk about business. Nothing happened between us. Don’t let your thoughts wander,” she said arrogantly.
In the next second, Halston walked out of the room in his pajamas. His hair was still wet. “Oh, good thing you haven’t left. Don’t you want your scrunchie anymore?”
Flossie’s facial expression froze. ‘Damn! This is embarrassing!’
She accepted the black scrunchie from Halston. “What a coincidence. I was looking for it everywhere. It seems that you found it.’
Halston crossed his arms before looking at her from top to bottom. “You look sexier with your hair down. Last night…”
“Ahem!” Flossie coughed profusely in an attempt to stop him from speaking.
Was he blind? There were so many people around. Was it necessary to describe such intimate details so openly?
The men looked at each other. Xavier showed a knowing look before chuckling. “Alright, alright. Don’t bother with the explanation. We’re all adults. We understand.”
“I think we came at the wrong time. If you need us to leave for a while, we can do that,’ Christopher chimed in.
“That won’t be necessary…” Halston said calmly. “You came at the right time because the wrong time had already passed.”
“Halston!” Flossie clenched her jaws and waved her fists angrily. ‘If you say anything you’re not supposed to, you’re going to pay for it!”
However, Halston kept his arms crossed and leaned casually against the wall. “Was I wrong? Would you like me to show my battle scars to everyone?”
“If you dare!”
“I’m the victim. Why wouldn’t I?” Halston replied.
“You…” Flossie suddenly realized that Halston could be completely unreasonable at times. There was nothing she could do when he behaved like this.
If he really did take off his pajamas, she’d leave Beach City on a rocket right away… No, she’d leave Earth!
“What do you want? Just say it!” Flossie knew Halston too well.
