Chapter 2102

“What the heck, how’s that even possible?” Raven scowled, flicking his cigarette butt to the ground and crushing it

with a twist of his boot. “How could she wake up so soon? You guys pulling one over on me?”

But as Raven drew closer, he locked eyes with Ivy’s lucid gaze.

Man, those peepers were something else. No wonder she was a star!

He was not one for fancy words, this roughneck. All he knew was he had never seen anyone as stunning as Ivy.

“Who are you people? What do you want with me?” Ivy’s voice quivered as she huddled into a corner.

She had scoped out the place already. It was a wreck, with no windows, wind whistling through every crack-a

derelict building forsaken mid-construction.

“So, you really did wake up, huh? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Don’t you worry about who we are. You just remember you’re gonna

of illness…. My thin frame, it’s because I can’t eat a thing. I’ve got no quarrel with you. I don’t want to drag you

guys cutting your lives short, too, right?”

Even though the starlet looked tempting, none of them wanted to catch whatever she was peddling.

And truth be told, they all knew the kind of sex mess that could happen in showbiz. Why else would Clara send them

to corner a celebrity like Ivy?

“Come on, don’t all you rich folks pride yourselves on being clean? How’d you catch something like that?”

Raven settled back, lighting another cigarette.

“Boss, I’m just a small-time actress. I have no control…” Ivy’s voice broke, tears welling up.

Her acting chops might have been green, but they were more than enough to handle these brutes.
