“Dad, don’t worry. I’m with you.” Jocelyn took a deep breath and stood up. “I’ll find a way out.” She held
Bernie’s hand and sat beside him.
“Jocelyn, your mother has set a bad example. I don’t want you to follow in her footsteps. Money isn’t
everything. We can still live a peaceful life. Once you find a stable job, you can find an honest,
trustworthy man to marry. You can have children and live happily.” The relentless problems had taught
Bernie a great lesson in life. He began looking at the bright side instead of putting too much pressure
on Jocelyn. After all, he just wanted the best for his daughter.
However, Jocelyn didn’t want to marry an honest, trustworthy man.
She couldn’t even imagine living an ordinary life.
“Dad, that’s not what I want,” Jocelyn said firmly. She was sure about what she wanted and didn’t want
to waste time arguing with her father.
She stood up and went upstairs with her bag.
She couldn’t sit and pray for her life to get better. After all, women wouldn’t be young and pretty for too
long. Jocelyn always wanted to live a wealthy life and decided to pursue it herself this time.
She took deep breaths to calm down.
Jocelyn had been going to parties every day for the past few days and met several wealthy men there.
However, the eligible bachelors didn’t seem to like her. They all just disappeared after sleeping with
her. No one was ready for a stable relationship with her.
However, one of them seemed interested.
She opened her bag and took out his business card. The name ‘Luke Turner’ was printed in bold
letters.
He was the head of the Turner family.
Jocelyn’s brows furrowed. She had never thought of getting into a relationship with the man.
Luke was an average-looking man in his fifties. Besides, he was married and had a son. Jocelyn never
wanted to be a mistress. Although she had a string of boyfriends in the past, her goal was to marry into
a wealthy family and live a luxurious life. Luke, however, was a married man and not her type or age.
Besides, Jocelyn went after good-looking men. She wanted her man to look dashing. The idea of being
with a middle-aged fat married man disgusted her. Although the Turner family held a significant position
in the city and was one of the wealthiest families, she didn’t consider being in a relationship with Luke.
But she was desperate to find a wealthy partner now.
Jocelyn bit her lower lip and mulled it over. She didn’t expect the Lind family would go bankrupt one
day.
Jocelyn decided to let go of her pride and think about the future. Being poor and struggling to make
ends meet seemed far worse than being with a middle-aged married man. She had to rely on a wealthy
man to live a sophisticated life, and Luke was the ideal choice.
Jocelyn decided to forget everything and just go for it.
She called Luke and asked him out for dinner.
Luke liked Jocelyn because she was young and beautiful. After all, old men loved pretty young women.
He accepted her invitation without hesitation. Dinner was just an excuse to get in her pants. He had
been waiting for a long time to sleep with a sultry woman like her.
To his surprise, Jocelyn, who had rejected him when they first met, seemed excited to meet him now.
“It seems like you’ve been going through a hard time lately, Miss Lind,” Luke said, taking a sip of wine.
He was shrewd. After all, the man was the reason for the Turner family’s success. He could sense that
Jocelyn was going through a hard time.
“You’re a smart man, Mr. Turner.” Jocelyn smiled. Fiona had taught her how to seduce men. Besides,
she had to work harder to be his mistress. Otherwise, the man would toss her away like trash after one
night’s pleasure.
Luke wasn’t in the mood to beat around the bush. He smiled and slid a room card toward her. “Miss
Lind, if you have any problem, you can come to this room to see me. I’ve booked this room for an entire
year.”
Jocelyn chuckled and rubbed her foot against his shins.
And, just like that, the two began using each other to fulfill their respective needs.
