Chapter 32: Lifestyle Of the Filthy Rich

Nathaniel gulped standing in front of Leander. What should he say to him when he asks why she bled? He didn’t know if Leander is that dumb or if he was testing him.

"Aren’t you a doctor?" Leander grumbled. "Why can’t you tell me why?"

"It’s her-hy... her hymen broke," Nathaniel told the truth. "You fingered~"

"Hy-?" Leander raised his brows. "She is a vir- She is-was a..."

It was Leander’s turn to stutter. How is that possible?

Nathaniel stood rubbing his arms. The wind was chilly on the terrace. He didn’t know why Leander wanted to chill out here of all the warm places in his big house.

"Will she need any medications?" Leander asked fisting his hands. His hands didn’t stop shaking.

"She doesn’t want any. So..." Nathaniel observed Leander’s hands to see if he pulls out his gun.

He still needed to tell him something important about her. He’s done all the tests on her. He knew she was a virgin, and he also knew that she is infertile. She must have suffered a trauma that rendered her infertile.

That woman probably knows it already. He had a feeling that it would concern Leander too. He had to tell Leander the result. But he didn’t want to die.

Maybe some other day!

The moment Leander waved his hand, Nathaniel dashed out of the house. He didn’t even meet his mother that day.

Leander leaned on the railing of the terrace. His heart was still beating erratically. He let out a deep breath looking at his hand that was shaking.

It was this hand...and this finger...

He didn’t even know what happened then. He remembered entering the bathroom and the next thing he remembered was her crying in his arms. Her meek voice still haunted him.

...hurts...

Her face had gone pale at that moment. She looked like she’d faint any moment. But then...

"Ugh!" he sighed deeply.

The rage in her eyes...the hatred... Why does it hurt me so much?

So... she was never with a man? Did Evander lie? But how did she even hurt Evander if she didn’t... F*ck! That f*cking liar!

And I...Why did I believe him? Why did it anger me so much? What have I done?

Ugh!

She wants me to burn... What’s with her and fire...

He heard footsteps on the stairs, and he recognized it was Steve. "Steve, leave me alone for some time," he said.

"Yes, Capo," the faithful assistant said from the stairs without even taking one more step.

"And Steve...!" Leander shouted for Steve before he left.

"Yes, Capo?"

"Send me the video of the Heberden Blowout..." Leander rubbed his chest. He remembered Steve telling him that she was there and had to watch her parents burn. He wanted to watch that video.

"Yes, Capo," Steve left.

Viviana stayed in the bathroom staring at the floor. When she came to, everything was dark. It had become evening. She was surprised that no one disturbed her.

She tried to stand up and it didn’t hurt as much as it did earlier. She stopped by the door. She didn’t know where to go or what to do. She didn’t feel like looking at Leander’s face in the bedroom.

She went back to the jacuzzi and curled up inside. Maybe this was her only safe space.

She fell asleep inside the tub. She didn’t know how much time had passed, but a familiar cheery voice followed by a bright light to her face woke her up.

"Come on, dear... Let’s get you changed up," Katerina got her by the arms and pulled her up. "Leander got you new clothes!"

Katerina sounded too excited, but Viviana was awed by how blind the people working for Leander can be. They pretend that it is nothing to see a woman sleeping in a bathtub. They do not care why she is where she is, they do not want to ask if she needs help. They just do what they are told and move on.

But then, they cannot be blamed. They need to survive too. And it appears that the bathroom door can be unlocked from the outside too.

"How magnanimous of him to offer me clothes," Viviana couldn’t help but quip sarcastically.

Katerina stopped and looked at her. Her smile was frozen, and Viviana saw a hint of disagreement in her eyes. Maybe she wanted to say that Leander is not that bad of a guy or something.

Viviana didn’t lose eye contact. Katerina then proceeded to walk to the front. She didn’t say one word afterward. Viviana didn’t miss her voice.

She was a lot stunned to see the heaps of bags in the room. Katerina walked to the walk-in closet.

"Your clothes are here," Katerina pointed. "I’ll bring your food. Get dressed." She said and walked out of the room.

Viviana saw the stacks of loungewear in there. They were not all black. And in the hangers, there were dresses of all colors. In the drawer was the precious things she was looking for—underwear.

She used to hate the prospect of wearing bras. But after wandering a day without them, she missed them. She checked the size: 32-D.

Ah! Perfecto! They are the full-coverage t-shirt bras I love.

Her lips curved into a smile. But then she wondered who was responsible for getting her size right. Her smile vanished.

What’s this brand...? Welp! Why does a bra cost this much? I could pay my monthly rent for the cost of two of these bras.

Wow!

She checked the tag of all the bras and the one she had in her hand was the cheapest one. She was living in an alternate reality till then. She didn’t even know that insanely expensive underwear is a thing.

Is this a daytime robbery? Or... Is this how the filthy rich live? But why?

Viviana was confused. She let out a deep sigh. She was not in a position to ask for anything, so it would be wise of her to accept what is given to her. She needs them. She didn’t bother to check the cost of her nightwear. She didn’t have the nerve.

People like Kastello ruin the lives of daily workers and salary people so that they can live in luxury like this. They spend an insane amount of money on themselves by plundering money from those who need it more than them. Thinking like that made her sad.

She decided on a quick shower. With precaution, she took her clothes with her to the bathroom. She didn’t want to walk out of the bathroom naked and happen upon that guy.

Once she stepped inside the shower enclosure, she was in for another cultural shock.

Why are there so many buttons and knobs? Which one should I use?

She tried to figure it out. Why do the rich make even showering so complicated? She had no idea. But thankfully, she figured it out after ten minutes of struggle. And after washing the filth off her, she felt light and free. But it hurt down there. She couldn’t even wash there properly.

She got dressed and walked out of the bathroom. Leander was not there earlier, and she was not expecting him in the room then.

And that’s why Leander’s presence there made her heart skip a beat. She leaped toward the bathroom.

"Wait!" Leander said. "Have dinner with me. I have something important to say to you."
