Chapter 3

Willow held the tray tightly as she walked towards V8.

She was afraid of any mishap that could shatter the bottles in her hands.

"Ack!"

Suddenly, someone emerged from a crossroad and accidentally bumped into Willow, exclaiming in surprise.

Willow's heart raced, and she swiftly pulled the precariously balanced bottles closer to her chest.

'Oh, thank goodness I managed to keep the bottles safe!'

"What's wrong with you? You bump into people and don't even apologize!" The voice sounded sharp and irritated.

Willow turned to face the person, only to see a woman with a face full of hostility.

Even though it wasn't her fault, customer satisfaction was paramount. She had intended to apologize, but upon seeing the woman, a surge of animosity coursed through her veins.

"It's you!"

"It's you!" The woman seemed equally surprised.

Samantha stared at Willow, sizing her up, and then let out a snide chuckle. "Oh my, I can't believe you've fallen to the point of working in a nightclub. If you're really struggling to get by, you should come to me. I can arrange a decent job for you. After all, I'm a successful person with my own company. We're family, right? So helping each other out is only natural."

Years ago, Samantha had set her sights on Xavier, Willow's boyfriend at the time. She had been utterly captivated by his striking looks.

He was a thousand times more handsome than any guy she had dated before.

Driven by her desires, she plotted to take Xavier away from Willow. She had deliberately stayed behind to cook dinner for them that night. During the meal, she had taken every opportunity to get Xavier drunk.

He had ended up completely intoxicated.
