Jenny couldn’t believe what had just happened. It felt like she had been struck by lightning. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Edwin sat up with a faint smile on his face.
“How could you be in my bed? I…” Jenny’s mind was racing, her face drained of color as she tried to piece together the events of the previous night.
It wasn’t a dream. It was real.
But the person in bed with her wasn’t Joe. It was Edwin.
Edwin’s smile remained gentle. “You climbed into my bed in the middle of the night. Don’t you remember? Don’t worry, I had a great time last night. I’ll make sure you get what’s coming to you.”
Jenny was utterly flustered, avoiding Edwin’s gaze as she noticed the marks on her body.
The pain coursing through her reminded her that this was no dream. But how could she have willingly climbed into Edwin’s bed? She had always liked Joe. Her first time was supposed to be for Joe.
How could it have been…
As Edwin got out of bed, his voice carried a satisfied note. “You were good for your first time. If there’s anything else you want, let me know. From now on, you can visit me whenever, and I’ll ensure you get what you’ve never had before.”
His words and tone reeked of satisfaction, but Jenny couldn’t bring herself to respond. As she left the Moran Residence, it felt like she was still trapped in a
nightmare.
She had only come for dinner. She had no idea how she ended up in Edwin’s bed.
She had a few drinks last night, but she wasn’t that easily drunk. She had handled alcohol before, back in college. She couldn’t fathom how this had happened.
She had saved her virginity for Joe, something she had always cherished. Now, was gone, just like that.
As Jenny stumbled into a cab, a car drove by. Inside was Paul, who had just opened the window for some fresh air.
To his surprise, he saw Jenny.
“Hmm? What’s Jenny doing here?”
She looked like she had just left Moran Residence.
Paul squinted, noticing that Jenny seemed disoriented as if she had experienced some kind of shock.
Paul stroked his chin thoughtfully.
Meanwhile, back at Moran Residence, Edwin, who usually had little appetite in the morning, poured himself an extra glass of milk today.
Seeing the smug look on Edwin’s face, Molly felt a wave of discomfort but chose to ignore it.
“Transfer 500 thousand dollars to her later,” Edwin told Molly.
Molly was caught off guard, hesitating before she asked, “500 thousand dollars?”
She thought the amount was excessive. “500 thousand dollars for just one night? Is she really worth that much?”
Edwin replied, “Yes, it’s because it was her first time.”
In the past, when he was with Molly, he hadn’t cared whether it was her first time. His infatuation had overshadowed such concerns. But now, with age, it seemed he valued those things more.
Molly’s expression changed. She didn’t say much and simply agreed. “Alright, I’ll transfer the money to her.”

Paul hurried to find Joe after leaving the PR department.
Sarah had just called him over to review the news from the past couple of days. He needed to know if Joe wanted to intervene.
Others might not know, and the reporters might be clueless, but Paul and a few others were well aware of Joe’s marital status. When Joe was single, it wasn’t a big deal. But now that he was married, they needed to be careful about these gossip stories.
Paul knew a bit about Vera. He had thought the last candid shot of her was just a coincidence, but this time…
