Half past nine at night, in Colors, the largest gambling den nightclub in Linkville.
Serena showed the waiter her membership card. He immediately took them both to a room in a
respectful manner. Leah was stunned by how familiar Serena was with the place from the way she
entered the room and ordered alcohol. When the waiter left, she poked Serena and asked, “Tell me
honestly. Do you patronize this place often?”
“Hehe, it’s normal to feel bored when you’re away from your hometown,” Serena chuckled and lay back
on the sofa casually while saying, “When people feel lonely, they come out and have fun with men. I’m
sure you understand.”
Leah smiled. She didn’t understand. If it wasn’t for the two million dollars she got, she wouldn’t have
had a chance to visit a place like this in her life. Serena picked up the microphone and started singing
after that.
Leah doesn’t visit places like these often, so she was still unfamiliar with her surroundings. After a
while, the waiter brought in a bucket of beer and some snacks.
When the waiter put the food and beverages down, he asked Serena politely, “Are you going to ask for
Juan again?”
Leah’s eyebrows twitched. Juan?
Serena nodded. She looked at Leah and said, “Do you have any sweet talkers here? Bring a few of
them here and let her pick one.”
“We do.” The waiter replied immediately.
When he returned to the room, he brought a few young men of various heights. Looking at their
appearances, they seemed to be around 20 to 30 years old. One of them came in and walked to

Serena’s side before pouring her a glass of wine obediently. Leah figured that person must be Juan.
Serena wrapped her arms around Leah’s shoulder and waved her hand boldly, “Pick any guy you like.”
Leah looked at the men in front of her. Some of them even had makeup on their face.
She rejected and waved her hands, “I don’t want any of them. You can keep them for yourself.”
“Come on. Don’t be so restrained when you’re here. Have fun.” Serena persuaded.
Leah smiled awkwardly. She stood up and said, “I’m going out to get some fresh air. It’s suffocating
here.”
Serena instructed a guy in his twenties, “Go out with my buddy. I don’t want her to get lost and meet a
bad guy.”
It was hot inside the room. Leah’s face was red because of the heat. She walked out of the room and
finally felt relieved when she was standing in the corridor. She heard the door closing behind her and
turned around. One of the guys came rushing out. He had a very earnest smile that made Leah
uncomfortable. She said to the guy, “Go back, I don’t need you to follow me.”
Soon, Leah heard a clear slap nearby.
Someone was slapped and a hoarse voice can be heard, “Don’t think you are someone special just
because Mr. Howard asked for you a few times. Let me tell you. You are just a prostitute. If you’re not
going to be obedient, you better get out!”
Leah heard the man mentioning Mr. Howard. She turned around and squinted her eyes to look
subconsciously. She saw a woman kneeling on the floor outside a room.
The woman was covering her face and her hair was also down, covering her face. Leah couldn’t see
the woman’s face clearly. However, one thing was clear. The woman was being humiliated right now.
She was wearing a very short skirt that barely covered her butt. Both her thighs were exposed when
she was kneeling.
The man standing in front of her didn’t pity her at all and scolded some vulgar words while pointing at
her. Leah frowned slightly. The guy who chased after Leah looked in that direction as well and
chuckled.
“What’s wrong?” Leah asked him with a frown.
The guy approached Leah and said, “That woman. That’s her. I think she came to Colors two years ago
and got close to Han. She got arrogant and wouldn’t accompany other guests. She even put up an
attitude with the manager. However, Han ditched her recently so she probably has to suffer now.”
Leah had an even bigger frown when she heard Han’s name.
“What’s her name?” Leah asked.
The guy was wondering why Leah got interested in the woman, but he still answered her question
honestly, “I think her name was Regina. She has been having difficulties in her family…”
Leah started walking toward Regina after he finished talking.
Meanwhile, the manager finally lost his patience after seeing Regina keeping her head down. He pulled
Regina’s hair and lifted her head up forcefully, “I’m talking to you, are you deaf?”
Regina was in so much pain that she started crying.
Immediately, Leah grabbed the manager’s hand, “Let her go.” Leah said coldly.
The manager was stunned when she saw Leah’s cold eyes. He didn’t know who she was.

shook Leah’s hand off.
Regina went pale when she saw Leah appearing in front of her. Having Leah see her in her most
humiliating state was something she couldn’t even dream of.
Leah stood in front of Regina silently and said, “Is beating her up a form of education to you?”
“What does it have to do with you?”
“Everyone has human rights.”
“Why does a prostitute need human rights?”
Both of them almost started a fiery argument.
“Enough!” Regina suddenly shouted. Her heavy makeup was almost washed off her face. She stood
up, pushed Leah away and ran away without turning back.
“Regina!” Leah called out to her.
Regina moved quickly and ran downstairs. Leah went after her.
She chased Regina all the way from the backdoor of Colors to a deserted street. Regina was too fast,
and Leah lost her. She didn’t even know where she was.
It was a narrow alley with no streetlights. The place was dark and smelled like mold.
Leah sighed and decided to walk out of the alley.
Since she knew Regina was working in Colors now, she could always return and visit her again.
Leah walked straight and out of the alley. At the end of the alley were rows of decrepit houses. These
houses were faintly lit. Leah wasn’t surprised since Linkville had many decrepit houses. She was only
wondering why Regina would run in this direction.
She walked along the cement road and decided to ask someone for directions to leave the area.
However, most of the houses were dark and didn’t seem like they were occupied. She picked the
closest house with lights on and walked upstairs carefully.
