Chapter 9

Sofia went against Daisy’s advice and slipped out of the apartment to work at the Charming Bar.

She couldn’t lie there and wait for Daisy to feed her while also paying for her mother’s medical bills.

It felt shameful to Sofia. Daisy had repaid her in every way possible, and, in fact, Daisy didn’t owe her a thing. If anything, Sofia felt indebted to Daisy for everything she had done.

Sofia entered the changing room, opened her locker, and retrieved her greeter’s uniform to change into. Taking a deep breath, she gathered her hair and put her changed clothes back into the locker.

Suddenly, she heard murmurs from outside of her changing

room.

“Have you heard about that one actress? Ella was disfigured by Mr. Walter, and it drove her to madness. Rumor has it that her parents have come to take her back.”

“Have you seen those videos Ella posted? They’re crazy!”

“Where’d she post it? Let me see!”

“She was banned online, and all of her videos were deleted in a night. But her career is completely finished.”

“Has Mr. Walter been caught yet?”

“He got arrested, and it seems he’s also implicated in the previous case of the female college students. He’s likely to receive a heavy sentence!”

“Heavy sentence, my ass. His family has a ton of money, so they’ll just bribe him out.”

“Actually, the Walters lost everything this morning. Their stocks all crashed! I don’t think he’s getting out of this one!”

When Sofia heard this, she was momentarily taken aback, wondering if someone had stood up for her. But upon reflection, she found the thought absurd. What was she now? Was she even worthy of someone standing up for her?

But those two deserved it.

She finished packing up her things, got up, and walked out of the changing room. Those outside stopped talking and looked at Sofia.

It wasn’t until Sofia stepped out of the employee room that they resumed their conversation. “I heard that Mr. Walter and Ella got into trouble because of that woman that just walked by.

“No way! She was so ugly! What kind of person would do that for her?”

“Mr. Sanchez was there last night, right? Maybe he likes ugly women?”

The voices laughed, and Sofia froze in her tracks. She lingered by the bar doors, a few steps away from where she was stationed. But, Meroy started to shout at her.
