The Promise Of Happiness

Chapter 1 Vehement Hatred

“Ugh…”

The moment Natalie Nichols woke up, she felt her body hurting as though it was falling apart.

She was stark naked beneath the covers, her pale skin littered with hickeys. There were so many that she could not bear to even look at them.

What’s this?

Suddenly, a memory of a steamy scene from the previous night flashed in front of her eyes.

She had entered the room in a semi-conscious state and was ravished by a stranger for the entire night.

The man had paid no heed to her cries and pleas as he claimed her as his own.

Natalie put on her clothes and got out of the bed with wobbly legs, determined to find the b*stard that took away her virginity.

However, the man was nowhere in sight. The only thing she found was a silver cross earring on the bed.

Was it left by that man?

Natalie pocketed the earring and was preparing to leave the suite when the door was kicked open from the outside.

Thomas Nichols, who was nearly fifty, stormed in, followed by Natalie’s twin sister, Yara.

“Dad, Yara…” Natalie paled instantaneously.

“You didn’t return all night, and we thought that something happened to you. Who knew that you would be fooling around with a man in a hotel!” Thomas pointed his finger at his daughter as he berated loudly.
