Chapter 4

For the next few days, I deliberately didn't cancel the card and kept booking appointments.

Since it was unlimited, I wanted to see what other tricks they had up their sleeves.

Kyle outwardly resumed giving me treatments, but in reality, he was maliciously retaliating.

Under the guise of a "deep detox," he put me in the hottest sauna room.

Normally, I'd steam for twenty minutes at most; he kept me in there for a full hour.

I was also forced to drink scalding "detox tea."

I couldn't stand the heat anymore and got up to leave.

But then I discovered the sauna door was locked from the outside!

I pounded on the glass door, shouting for help.

Kyle stood just outside the door, watching me through the glass, sipping iced watermelon juice and smiling maliciously.

"Sophia, you have too many toxins in your system; you need to sweat it out more!"

"Didn't you insist on coming for treatments? Take it or leave it!"

He mouthed an insult at me.

My head was spinning from the heat, my vision started to blur, and my heart pounded uncontrollably.

He gave me the middle finger from outside.

"You pathetic cheapskate, I'm doing this for your own good! To cleanse you of your poor vibes!"

I finally endured until the time was up. When the door opened, I was completely drained, collapsing onto the damp floor, unable to get up.

Just then, a few VIP clients walked in.

I weakly tried to ask them for help.

They were all Kyle's regulars and had always resented me for "coming every day to take advantage."

They watched me coldly, making no move to help, instead covering their mouths and snickering.

"Oh, isn't that Sophia, the one who's always clinging to Kyle? She really knows how to take advantage. Just because she bought a year pass? She has no sense of propriety!"

"Exactly! Because of her, Kyle was upset, and he wasn't even in the mood to chat when he was giving us our SPA!"

"Heh heh! Serves her right! Must be crazy with poverty!"

After that, they disdainfully walked past me, strolling smugly into the changing room.

I bit my lip until it bled, forcing myself to stand up.

Good. Very good.

You all just wait.
