Sultry Whispers

In the deep winter, rain poured relentlessly on a rainy night.

Alice Brown knelt at the doorstep of the Brown family, soaked in the rain for a whole hour.

"Miss, please go home. The master won't change his mind," Uncle Lewis came out and sympathetically said when he saw Alice Brown trembling from the cold.

"It's okay, Uncle Lewis. You don't need to worry about me. I must get the money to save my mom."

If it weren't for her mother's serious illness and the need for medical expenses, Alice Brown would probably never set foot here in her entire life, let alone kneel here begging that man.

Just then, a dazzling car light pierced through the rain and shone on Alice Brown. The car quickly drove past, splashing all the rainwater onto her.

"Ah!" Unable to hold back, she screamed out loud. Alice, who was already drenched and bedraggled by the icy rain, now looked even more pitiful, as if she had fallen into into a puddle of icy water.

"Oh, sorry, sister. It's too dark, I didn't see it. It wasn't intentional," a melodramatic voice came from the car.

Alice lifted her head and looked at her half-sibling 'sister.' She saw her stepping down from the car, wearing a pair of silver diamond-studded pointed high heels. Her condescending gaze looked down on Alice, filled with contempt and no trace of apology.

"Who is your sister?" This address struck a nerve in Alice Brown. She suddenly stood up, glared at the woman in front of her with fierceness.

Clearly, her mother was the legitimate wife married to Peter Brown, but this woman, who was born from an affair outside, was born a month before her! Ha ha, it is ridiculous to think about it!

"If it wasn't for Dad's request, do you think I would be willing to call someone like you my sister? It's embarrassing!" Lily Brown bent down and whispered in her ear.

"Lily Brown, don't act so superior. Everything you and your mom have now is just what we didn't want. Wasn't your mom just a mistress who climbed her way up? What do you have to be proud of?" Alice Brown hit Lily Brown's sore spot directly.

"Oh I was trying to help you, how could you push me, your little sister," Lily Brown suddenly sat down on the muddy and rainy ground.

"You scoundrel!" Peter Brown saw this scene as soon as he came out and immediately approached Alice Brown, giving her a slap without any hesitation.

Alice Brown felt a strong gust of wind approaching, but before she could react, her face was already burning with pain, and she ended up in a messy position on the ground.

She looked at the so-called father in front of her, and the remaining flicker of hope in her heart was slowly extinguishing.

"Someone quickly help the young miss up," Peter Brown furrowed his brows, his face filled with anger.

Alice Brown didn't expect that her "sister"'s clumsy act would be believed by someone. It seemed that some people were not just blind in their eyes, but also in their hearts.

"Daddy, please don't hit sister. She definitely didn't mean it," Lily Brown softly persuaded.

"Lily Brown, put away your hypocritical face. It disgusts me," Alice Brown, lying on the ground, couldn't help but speak.

"How dare you! Alice Brown, you scoundrel! How can you speak so maliciously? Where is the demeanor of a noble lady?" Peter Brown had always been nurturing her as a socialite. Seeing her true side enraged him.

"A noble lady? Hahaha!" Alice laughed coldly.

"Would a noble lady run around for three meals a day, just for the sake of survival? Would she kneel here, begging for money for her mother's medical expenses? Would she be framed by your obedient daughter? Be beaten to the ground by you?"

She knew that she wouldn't get the money for her mother's medical expenses. In one breath, she blurted out the frustrations of these years.

Her childhood was spent in practicing dance, playing the violin, and piano. She was afraid of displeasing her father and mother, afraid of her mother being scolded because of her. So she desperately practiced, excelling in everything, but she had never experienced happiness.

"Fine... Fine, I spent so much money raising you, and this is how you repay me? Alice Brown... So you've grown wings, huh? When you have wings, don't come begging to me, just get lost! Get lost!" Peter Brown had never been so openly accused by anyone, let alone his own daughter. He angrily pointed at her and cursed.

"I am no longer the little girl who couldn't argue back when scolded for not practicing the piano well."

She forced herself to stand up, looked at him coldly, and staggered towards the gate of the villa.

As she reached the entrance of the residential area, her legs gave out, and she kneeled on the rain-soaked ground with a thud. The walls in her heart collapsed, and tears fell heavily, crying louder and louder.

How could she handle her mother's medical expenses? The optimal surgery period was within one week, and 800,000 was a drop in the bucket for the Brown family, but for her and her mother, it meant a life.

What should she do, how should she handle this?

She thought of everyone who could possibly help her, and the only person left who could help was her boyfriend, Hans.

Hans, despite being a second-generation rich, had his own ideas and started his own company. He had been pursuing her since college. She had lost all expectations for love after witnessing her parents' troubled marriage. Ultimately, she chose to be with him because he was easy to get along with and ambitious. She believed that even marriage wouldn't be impossible with someone like him.

Alice Brown always pursued equality in relationships and didn't usually spend much of Hans' money. She only borrowed the eight hundred thousand, and she would definitely repay him.

Half an hour later, Alice Brown appeared at a luxury apartment complex.

Before entering the door, she took a few deep breaths, knowing that she had to ask for this favor, no matter what, for her mother's medical expenses.

She took a deep breath, unlocked the fingerprint, and stepped inside.

Just as she reached the entrance, she saw a mess of high heels, leather shoes, men's suit jackets, shirts, and a woman's bra on the floor...

She stopped in her tracks and her mind went blank.

Until she heard voices from the room, even though she had never experienced intimacy, she knew what was happening inside.

Taking a deep breath, she slowly walked towards the bedroom, her steps feeling heavier and heavier.

"Honey, you're so good!" came a sultry voice from the bedroom.

When Alice Brown heard this voice, her mind seemed to be struck by lightning, leaving her momentarily stunned.
