Chapter 25 Money

"Are you short on money?" After dropping Jasmine off, Tom asked casually. Jasmine didn't speak; she just lowered her head and got out of the car.

Jasmine looked at the money Tom was offering but didn't take it, instead turning and walking away.

To her, this was an insult.

"Do you think it's too little?" Tom got angry. "How much do those guys like Larry give you? I'll pay you double to sleep with me!"

Cursing inwardly, Tom felt he had been too bold.

Jasmine bit her lip corner and glared at Tom, but she said nothing and ran into the alley.

"Damn..." Tom cursed again, feeling like he'd gone mad. Everyone knew Jasmine was dirty; any man would do, and she was even diseased.
