Mysterious Little Wife

The look on Sam's face didn't look as great after hearing what she said. 

"Four hundred thousand dollars?" He scowled. 

Lacey couldn't help but shrug at his dull face. Nonetheless, she feigned calm and walked past him. Grabbing a strand of hair, she then tied her hair into a casual ponytail.

"Sam, you're a businessman. I'm sure you've heard of a hush fee!" She bent to get her coat off the floor and put it on.

Despite her casual movements, it made her look seductive. 

At sight, Sam set off a smirk. He gradually approached her with eyes full of sarcasm. 

Lacey did not flinch this time. She stood her ground and looked boldly into his mocking eyes. 

Once he stepped in front of her, Sam suddenly extended his fingers. He gently ruffled her long hair with one hand and caressed her waist with the other. His gentleness seemed too good to be true.

Next thing she knew, Sam's low, gravelly voice was next to her ear. He asked aggressively, "Is that how you usually make money?" 

Lacey froze, and so did the smile at the corner of her mouth.

Shortly after, a smirk popped up on her face. She grabbed his collar, smiled up at him, and said, "It doesn't matter how I earn my money. Didn't you have a wonderful time last night?"

 Lacey sat her legs on the bed as she spoke. Her shirt slid off, revealing the marks on her legs. It looked particularly harsh.

Sam's eyes were as cold as ice blades at this point, as if they could slice her skin and nerves. His contempt for her was apparent.
