I looked up at him in confusion.

“There’s a hundred thousand in this card. Go buy yourself some new clothes or something. You can throw all of your old clothes away if you want.”

Michael’s tone was neutral when he said that, but I felt uncomfortable at how he was treating me like a sugar baby.

“Thanks, but I can afford to do my own shopping, so you can keep your money.”

I refused his offer and placed the card on the nightstand.

After all the money Michael had given me so far, I couldn’t bring myself to accept any more from him. Although he had paid for Steven’s surgery bills because of our deal, I had cost him hundreds of thousands in just a few months.

“You’re my woman now, so don’t worry about it and just take whatever money I give you. I don’t mind giving you money as long as you don’t have any ulterior motives for being with me.”

I knew Michael was a generous man capable of offering insane amounts of money like it was nothing, but that last sentence he said hurt me deeply.

What does he mean by ulterior motives? Is it because all the women around him are after his money, so he finds it suspicious that I’m refusing his offer?

“Relax, I know what you mean. You and I are merely f*ck buddies, and nothing more.”

It wasn’t the first time Michael had reminded me of our relationship, and I was well aware that we had nothing between us outside of this house.

Right as I thought he was about to leave, he turned around at the door and said coldly, “Oh, and you’d better take care of Yuval as soon as possible. I don’t like my women being in messy relationships.”
