Chapter 2 Sold To A Brothel
Genesis's POV：
I pulled out my phone and typed: 【I didn't see anything, and I won't tell anyone!】
"You're lying. I clearly saw you in that oak tree, little mouse." Eli chuckled softly as he knocked the phone away, the murderous intent in his eyes not diminishing one bit.
Obviously, I hadn't offered anything convincing enough.
I began trembling slightly, my mind racing. I knew if I didn't give him a satisfactory answer, he would kill me without hesitation.
"Dishonest little mice need punishment. I've decided not to kill you. You know our family owns several brothels in Africa, right? The men there love women with good figures like yours."
He gripped the gun and traced the barrel down my face, sliding it to my chest. The cold metal made my whole body shudder.
Eli wanted to throw me into the red light district!
He really was a pervert. This was pure torture!
"They'll ravage your breasts, squeeze them into all kinds of shapes."
I swallowed hard. His smile grew more wicked as the gun slid shamelessly to my butt, then my legs.
No one had ever touched these places before. It made me uncomfortable. I tried awkwardly to dodge, but Eli suddenly grabbed both my hands with his left hand and pinned them high above my head.
I looked at him with tears in my eyes. He showed no restraint, speaking even more suggestively. "And your legs, your ass..."
His tone made my heart race with panic. I desperately wanted to escape.
But his burning body kept pressing against me. He positioned that cold gun against my private area and gave it a light push.
The man's overwhelming presence made my heart flutter. I couldn't help but let out a muffled whimper.
Clearly my reaction pleased Eli even more. He slowly leaned close to my ear and bit it gently. "So innocent. Are you still a virgin?"
I stared at him in horror.
My reaction confirmed his guess. Eli laughed.
"That'll fetch a good price!"
I trembled and kept trying to back away, praying he would spare me.
But Eli's gun kept rubbing against my private area while his head rested on my shoulder.
"Virgins are so much fun to play with!" Eli whispered in my ear.
Shame and anger filled my heart, but I knew I could only endure it now. Otherwise, if I provoked Eli, I would only die here.
"What are you doing!"
A sharp scream suddenly erupted from the doorway. I breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, someone had come!
Eli clicked his tongue in annoyance and slowly straightened up.
I saw who was at the door. It was Eli's fiancée, Delilah.
My earlier relief now turned to worry.
Delilah was madly in love with Eli. She would viciously retaliate against any woman who got close to him.
Just a few days ago, a woman Eli had complimented as beautiful got her face slashed by Delilah!
Given how intimate my position with Eli had looked, she definitely wouldn't let me off.
Sure enough, she pointed at us furiously, looking like she wanted to tear me to pieces.
Eli glanced at Delilah. "What are you doing here?"
He even moved the gun away from my private area right in front of Delilah!
I suspected he was doing this on purpose!
I quickly waved at Delilah, trying to signal that things weren't what she thought.
But how could Delilah, already consumed with rage, possibly believe me? She charged in like a lioness and slapped me hard across the face.
My face snapped to the side, immediately stinging with burning pain.
"I always knew you were no good! You're even seducing your own uncle, just like your shameless whore mother!" Delilah shrieked.
My expression immediately darkened.
I never cared about their usual mockery, but she absolutely could not insult my mother!
Back then, if my mother hadn't used her body to shield me from those people, I probably would have died in that murder. She died saving me!
And I had both a father and mother. My mother was never Christian's mistress!
My chest heaved violently as I stared hard at Delilah.
Seeing me look at her like that, Delilah mockingly grabbed my chin. "Just like mother, like daughter. Disgusting!"
Slap!
Unable to bear it any longer, I slapped Delilah hard across the face.
Eli, who had been yawning with boredom, immediately straightened up with interest when he saw me dare to fight back against Delilah.
Delilah hadn't expected me to actually hit her. She screamed and lunged to claw at me.
I pressed my lips together and stood motionless, my hands clenched tightly into fists.
Of course I knew I could wrestle with her. Maybe I could even beat this pampered princess who never exercised.
But the scene of my mother lying in a pool of blood, begging me to leave quickly, kept flashing before my eyes. Her pleading face never faded.
I couldn't do this.
I had to live safely!
I closed my eyes and calmly waited for Delilah's revenge.
"Enough." Eli suddenly walked over with a dark expression and blocked Delilah.
With her attack stopped, Delilah looked at Eli in disbelief. "You're actually protecting this bitch against me?!"
Eli sneered and frowned as he stared at Delilah. "What gave you the illusion that you could control me?"
"You..." Delilah didn't dare argue with him further. She could only glare at me viciously. "You must have seduced Eli! That's why he's treating me like this!"
What did this have to do with me?
I looked at Delilah in bewilderment. Tonight was the first time I'd ever spoken to Eli. How was this my fault?
Seeing my surprise, Eli couldn't help but laugh.
Eli's laughter further provoked Delilah. She screamed and pulled out her phone. "You're just a bastard daughter! How dare you seduce my fiancé! I'm going to have my father and brother tell Jordan! Make him throw you out!"
I looked anxiously at Eli. All of this was clearly his doing. Why should I have to bear the consequences?
I was about to get into college. I absolutely couldn't be thrown out!
Without any support, how could I continue my studies?
"What do you think you're doing?" Eli grabbed Delilah's wrist and frowned.
Delilah snorted coldly. "My husband absolutely cannot have a mistress. I'm going to make this woman disappear completely!"
With that, she moved to press the call button.
