Chapter 5 How Slutty
Danica frowned. “What did I do?”
Gnashing his teeth, Wayne fumed, “Stop playing dumb. Look at how slutty you are.
What?
Slutty?
“Wayne, what’s that supposed to mean?”
Wayne looked down at her miniskirt. “Everyone can see your thigh. Is that what you want?”
Danica’s skirt was indeed a bit short. Florence had picked it out for her.
In the mall, Florence had said while insisting that she put on this skirt, “Jennifer thinks her legs are a piece of artwork? That’s because you’ve never revealed your legs. Show everyone tonight who in Marinburg has the most breathtaking legs, Dani.”
Danica arched a delicate eyebrow. “I take it that you’ve been looking at my legs then, Mr. Hamilton.”
Wayne was stunned.
Meanwhile, she leaned backward against the wall lazily, her beautiful eyes with a smile making her even more captivating. Then she slowly raised her right leg and grazed the crystal heel of her shoe against his ankle.
With his black suit pants sculpting his powerful, slender legs, he

seemed the perfect illustration of icy elegance and restrained desire.
Danica raised her right foot, tracing his leg all the way up with her delicate, tender toes and rubbing against his calf titillatingly.
She was seducing him.
Or rather, it was a provocation.
Wayne shot her a cold glance. “What are you doing?”
She smiled charmingly, “Mr. Hamilton, whose legs do you like better? Mine or Jennifer’s?”
Wayne looked at her, not responding immediately. The widow’s peak on her forehead adds a touch of elegance to her striking face, and though she carried an innocent beauty, here she was, seducing him so boldly. The contradiction only made her even more irresistible.
He had caught a glimpse of her beauty hidden behind her thick, black- framed glasses, but as it turned out, she was more stunning than he had pictured.
Somehow, he felt that he had seen her face somewhere before.
Danica smiled charmingly, “Mr. Hamilton, has Jennifer ever wrapped her legs around your waist?”
Wayne’s face darkened. He leaned over to study her face more closely. “You’re so horny, Danica. You’re desperate for men and even ordered eight male escorts at the same time to keep you company.”
He didn’t answer her question about him and Jennifer, which was probably the best protection a man could offer a woman.
Danica thought, “They dated at the most beautiful age of their lives, and their love was so passionate that everyone in Marinburg knew

about it. I bet Jennifer must have clung that slender legs of hers tightly around his waist. Otherwise, how come he still can’t get over her now?
“How lucky Jennifer is, having a cold–hearted man love her for all these years.
“No doubt that he’s never used the word ‘horny‘ to describe her.”
Though she was smiling, her crystal–clear eyes were devoid of any emotion at all. “Yeah. You’re right. Mr. Hamilton, you’re impotent. Why can’t I satisfy my needs? I want a divorce as soon as possible so that I can find the man who can truly satisfy me.”
Wayne thought, “Did she actually just call me impotent again?
“And she wants to find a man who can truly satisfy her?
“I gotta teach her a lesson.”
He gripped her delicate chin. “You’re just saying this to provoke me, aren’t you? Are you that interested in knowing whether I can satisfy you or not?”
What?
Danica was stunned.
He leaned closer to her, their lips almost touching each other. Though the scene was utterly titillating, the words he spat were nothing but cold. “Dream on. I’ll never touch you. Jennifer’s the one I love.”
Jennifer was the one he loved.
In fact, Danica knew it all too well, and he didn’t have to say it out loud right now. His words pierced her heart like a needle, sharp and precise, leaving a dull ache that lingered.

Just then, a pleasant female voice rang out. “Wayne.”
Danica looked up and saw Jennifer.
Jennifer, the Muse of countless men in Marinburg, was pretty and elegant. She had been learning dancing for years, which made her body soft and flexible.
Wayne immediately let go of Danica and strode over to her. He lowered his head and looked at her, the gentleness in his eyes something Danica had never seen before. “You’re here.”
Jennifer nodded and then looked at Danica. “This is?”
She didn’t recognize Danica at once.
But Danica would never forget Jennifer.
In fact, they had different parents.
Rodney was Danica’s stepfather.
Many years ago, Danica had had a happy family. Davon Vance, her biological father, and Liliana had been an enviable couple everyone
admired.
Davon had loved Danica very much. He’d pick her up every day, saying, “Dani, my biggest hope is that you can live a happy life.”
But later, Davon passed away. His younger brother Rodney came to live with them with Jennifer, and Liliana became Jennifer’s mother.
Liliana married Rodney.
Liliana poured all her love into Jennifer, abandoning Danica.
Once, Danica got full marks in an exam whereas Jennifer was one

point behind, and Liliana struck Danica’s palms with a ruler and scolded, “Why did you have to perform better than Jenny? Have you ever considered her feelings?”
Jennifer fell ill and lost all her hair to chemo, crying and saying that she was too ugly to see anyone, so Liliana shaved Danica’s head, too. “This is the only way to stop Jenny from crying.”
Every night, Liliana, Rodney, and Jennifer would sleep together, laughing and chatting in bed, whereas Danica stood at the doorway alone while holding the doll Davon had bought for her, shedding tears. “Mommy, I’m scared.”
Later, Jennifer finally started to call Liliana “Mom“, which made Liliana so happy. But Jennifer also insisted that Liliana could only have one daughter.
Danica still remembered vividly that it was pouring that day. Liliana took her to the countryside and left her in a village.
She was just a little girl back then. She relentlessly chased the car, crying so hard that she couldn’t even breathe. “Mommy, don’t leave me… I’ll be good. I’ll let Jennifer have everything… Mommy, hug me… I’m so scared…”
She fell into a muddy puddle heavily with the doll in her arms, watching as Liliana vanished from her sight in the car.
She’d never forget Jennifer.
Just then, Emilio ran over. “Jenny, it’s … Danica!”
Jennifer was shocked. “Danica?”
Danica knew Jennifer had always looked down on her.
Jennifer had outshone her since childhood. As the favored child,

Jennifer had great academic performance, and she was even lucky enough to date Wayne, the future heir of the Hamilton family. Bathed in love and privilege, she had always been aloof and proud.
Emilio was once again amazed by Danica’s beauty. He muttered, “I had no idea Danica is so beautiful.”
In fact, Jennifer barely remembered their childhood because she had never paid any attention to Danica, her unwanted sister. But she remembered one thing clearly–Danica was just an unattractive bumpkin who grew up in the countryside.
She walked over to Danica, glanced at the latter, and said arrogantly, “Danica, you’re actually copying my style?”
Danica felt speechless.
She thought, “Think whatever you want.”
Straightening her posture, she smiled without saying anything in response. The hallway light spilled over her delicate features, accentuating her beauty.
She was no longer the vulnerable Danica of the past.
Meanwhile, Jennifer continued, “Danica, they say Wayne and you are about to get a divorce. And here you are, ordering male escorts in a bar? It seems you really can’t live without a man. How shameless. If I were you, I’d get a job.”
While saying, she turned to look at Wayne and said, the condescension obvious in her tone, “Wayne, no matter what, Danica took care of you for so long. Even if she was just a maid, you should help her find something to do.”
Wayne’s gaze fell upon Danica’s face.

Emilio chimed in, “Jenny, one needs a degree to get a decent job these days. What’s Danica’s educational background?”
Jennifer chuckled as if he had said something funny. She responded, lifting her chin, “She dropped out at sixteen.”
