axson, noticing that Brentley didn't seem inclined to lick his shoes, called out with a stony expression, "Are you deaf or something? I told you to lick my shoes clean. Didn't you hear me?"

"I've already given you the money. Can I take them now?" Brentley asked quietly, trying to keep his composure.

Brentley didn't want to reveal his true identity, so he had refrained from confronting Jaxson about his earlier behavior. However, the demand to lick shoes was a step too far for Brentley.

"Did I not make myself clear? Lick my shoes clean, and you can take them away!" It was evident that Jaxson wasn't willing to let Brentley take Farrah and Taylor so easily. Both girls were considered top-notch, and encounters like this didn't come often. Jaxson was deliberately making things difficult for Brentley. Even if Brentley did lick his shoes, Jaxson would likely find another way to humiliate him.

"Brentley, what are you waiting for? Just lick them so we can leave!" Taylor shouted urgently when she saw Brentley standing still.

Brentley's eyes turned icy as he looked at Taylor. He couldn't believe that Taylor was actually urging him to comply with Jaxson's humiliating demand. He had come to rescue them!

"Hey, kid, did you hear that? Lick my shoes clean and then get out..." Jaxson said with a smug grin.

Brentley stood there expressionless, not saying a word.

"Jaxson, stop it!"

At that moment, Simeon, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

"Big brother..."

Jaxson Jordan turned his head to look at Simeon.

"Since Brentley has already brought the money, there's no need to make things difficult for them. Let them go," Simeon said calmly.

"But I..." Jaxson seemed very unwilling.

"I said let them go. Didn't you hear me?" Simeon shouted, glaring at him.

Jaxson hesitated for a moment before muttering, "Fine, you're lucky today. Take these two women and get out of here. And don't let me see you again..."

Taylor and Farrah quickly got up and ran towards Brentley upon hearing this. Brentley Carter didn't say much either, turning and heading out of the private room with Farrah and Taylor close behind him.

A few minutes later, Brentley Carter, Taylor, and Farrah walked out of the KTV. Taylor glanced at Brentley and said disdainfully, "Brentley, I heard you lent us the money because Farrah agreed to sleep with you, is that true?” "Yes, do you have a problem with that?" Brentley asked softly.

"Of course, I have a problem with it! Why should someone like you get to sleep with Farrah? Have you looked at yourself?" Taylor shouted disdainfully.

"We'll pay you back the money, but you can forget about sleeping with Farrah. Come on, Farrah, let's go!"

With that, Taylor grabbed Farrah and started to leave, not even bothering to thank Brentley.

Farrah, naturally, was also unwilling to actually sleep with Brentley. She thought that even if she changed her mind now, Brentley, being the pushover he was, wouldn't be able to do anything about it. Without a second thought, she turned to leave.

"I have the money to get you out of Jaxson's grasp, and I have the money to make him take you back. So, I think you two better think this through carefully!" Brentley suddenly shouted just as the two girls were about to leave.

Farrah's body trembled slightly upon hearing Brentley's words, and she instinctively stopped in her tracks. "Brentley, aren't you going too far? We're classmates, do you really need to act like this?" Taylor turned her head and shouted at Brentley.

"Did you two ever consider we were classmates when you bullied me back then?" Brentley replied calmly.

"You..."

Taylor was stunned into silence by Brentley's retort.

"Taylor, you should stay out of this. If it comes to it, I'll just spend a night with him. Otherwise, Jaxson might really come after us..." Farrah bit her lip and whispered. "But how can I stand by and watch you be humiliated by someone like him?" Taylor's eyes were wide and filled with concern for Farrah.

"If you can't stand it, you can spend the night with me instead," Brentley said softly to Taylor.

Without a second thought, Taylor let go of Farrah's hand and whispered, "Farrah, don't worry. I won't tell anyone about this."

After saying that, Taylor quickly walked away, afraid that Brentley might change his mind and make her stay. Farrah watched Taylor's back with a look of despair, unsure of what to say.

Brentley hailed a taxi and called out to Farrah, "Don't just stand there, get in!"

Farrah hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and followed Brentley into the taxi.

Ten minutes later.

The taxi stopped in front of a hotel near Sunshine City University. Brentley knew that many couples from the university came here, and since he had never stayed in a hotel before, he didn't know any other places. So, he brought Farrah here.

"Brentley, this is my first time, and you bring me to this dump?" Farrah complained as she got out of the taxi, clearly displeased.

"Be glad I found a hotel at all. Do you want me to make you strip in the middle of the street?" Brentley replied, his face expressionless.

"You..." Farrah was momentarily speechless at Brentley's words. She pouted and continued, "Listen, you can't tell anyone about us getting a room, or I won't let you off the hook!"

"And once we're in the room, no kissing. Just get it over with quickly. After this, I'll pretend I got bitten by a dog, and we won't have anything to do with each other anymore, got it?"

Brentley felt exasperated by Farrah's demands but went to the front desk to book a room.

The hotel clerk gave them a puzzled look as they checked in. Brentley's shabby appearance contrasted sharply with Farrah's stylish and attractive look. They didn't seem like a couple at all.

Even though Farrah had loudly laid down the rules with Brentley earlier, this was actually her first time being in a hotel room with a guy. She was extremely nervous, hesitating at the doorway for a long time, unable to muster the courage to step inside.

"Come in," Brentley said, opening the door with a blank expression.

"Brentley, did you... did you remember everything I told you?" Farrah stammered, her voice trembling.

"If you don't come in right now, I'm calling Jaxson. I doubt he'd be as polite to you," Brentley replied coolly.

"No, no, please..." Farrah quickly shouted upon hearing Jaxson's name. She shivered as she reluctantly walked into the room.

"Take off your clothes," Brentley Carter commanded as soon as Farrah stepped inside, wasting no time with unnecessary words. Farrah froze for a moment after hearing Brentley's words, a flash of fear flickering in her wide, watery eyes.

Though Farrah often joked and played around with boys at school, deep down, she was quite conservative. With her good looks and great figure, it was natural for her to be a bit proud, and she had never had a boyfriend.

So, the idea of undressing in front of a guy felt like a huge insult to her.

And it wasn't just any guy, it was Brentley Carter, the person she used to look down on the most.

She couldn't even imagine how she would face Brentley in the future if she really ended up in bed with him today.

"Don't want to take off your clothes, huh? Then I'll go find Jaxson and get the money back!"

Seeing Farrah standing still, Brentley started to walk out of the room.

"Wait... I'll do it, okay?"

Farrah quickly reached out and grabbed Brentley's arm, biting her lip as she spoke.

"Alright then."

Brentley stopped and looked at her.

Taking a deep breath, Farrah's hands trembled as she unbuttoned her denim shorts, feeling a mix of anxiety and anticipation.

As Farrah removed her shorts, her long, slender, and pale legs were exposed to Brentley's gaze. He couldn't deny it, Farrah had an amazing figure, and her legs were perfectly proportioned and enticingly smooth. "Keep going..."

Brentley spoke with a blank expression.

Farrah hesitated for a couple of seconds, then bit her lip and began to take off her top.

Moments later, her clothes slipped off, revealing her perfect figure in front of him

Covering her chest with her hands, Farrah's voice choked as she said, "Just do whatever you want quickly!"

Brentley couldn't help but smile faintly at her words, then did something Farrah never expected. He turned around and started walking out of the room.

"Brentley, where are you going?" Farrah shouted, her big, watery eyes wide with surprise.

"I've done what I wanted to do. I'm leaving," Brentley replied, his face still expressionless.

"You... you're leaving?" Farrah was stunned by his words, her beautiful eyes fixed on him as she tried to understand what he meant.

"Aren't you going to sleep with me?" she asked, hesitating before rushing to his side and grabbing his arm. "Brentley, I know I was wrong. Forget everything I said before. You can do whatever you want now. Just don't let Jaxson and his guys come after me. I'm begging you, please?"

Farrah thought Brentley was about to change his mind, so she pleaded pitifully.

Perhaps because of her nervousness, she no longer covered herself, leaving everything exposed.

"Did I ever say I was going to find Jaxson?" Brentley asked softly, looking at Farrah.

"You... you're not going to see Jaxson, then what are you doing?" Farrah stammered, taken aback.

"Did you really think I was interested in you?" Brentley couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. Then, with a tone full of disdain, he said, "Sorry, but even if you stripped naked in front of me, I wouldn't have any thoughts about you. The only reason I'm doing this today is to see just how cheap a woman like you can be for money. A woman who would trade her first time for four thousand dollars? I, Brentley Carter, wouldn't touch her with a ten-foot pole."

"You..." Farrah glared at him, her face twisted with anger."What about me?" Brentley asked indifferently.

“You're humiliating me on purpose, aren't you?" Farrah shouted.

"That's right. I'm humiliating you, just like you humiliated me with money back then. You're no better than me, Farrah," Brentley replied calmly. He then turned and walked out of the room.

Farrah stood there, stunned, replaying Brentley's words over and over in her mind.

Only now did Farrah realize how ridiculous her previous actions had been. Perhaps she never had the right to humiliate Brentley of the past, and she certainly had no right to humiliate the current Brentley.

Meanwhile, Brentley, after leaving the hotel, took out his phone and dialed Mr. Griffin.

"Young Master Carter, what can I do for you?" Mr. Griffin asked respectfully as soon as he answered the call.

"I need you to investigate someone. His name is Jaxson Jordan," Brentley said softly.

"Understood, Young Master Carter! I will have someone look into it right away. You should hear back from us shortly," Mr. Griffin replied promptly.

"Good," Brentley nodded slightly before hanging up and heading towards the Campus.

However, before Brentley could reach the Campus gate, a black Mercedes pulled up in front of him. A middle-aged man stepped out of the car, bowing nervously to Brentley before speaking softly, "Hello Young Master Carter!"

Brentley gave the man a scan and asked in a low voice, "Are you one of Mr. Griffin's men?"

"Yes, Young Master Carter. I'm under General Manager Griffin. You asked us to investigate someone named Jaxson Jordan, right? I've already gathered the information. Are you planning to go see him now?" the middle-aged man responded quickly.

"Alright, let's go now," Brentley nodded.

"Please, Young Master Carter, this way," the man said, gesturing towards the car.

A middle-aged man quickly reached out to help Brentley open the car door.

Brentley seemed a bit embarrassed by the man's attentiveness and said softly, "You know, you really don't have to be so polite with me..."

"Young Master Carter, you are General Manager Griffin's boss, and he is my boss. It's only right for me to be polite to you," the middle-aged man replied gently.

"Hehe, what's your name?" Brentley asked with a friendly smile.

"My name is Logan Rodriguez. You can just call me Logan, Young Master Carter," the man said while driving.

"You're Logan Rodriguez?" Brentley's face changed instantly, his expression filled with shock. "Young Master Carter, you've heard of me?" Logan asked with a smile.

"Of course I've heard of you. Who doesn't know the big shot Logan Rodriguez from Sunshire City?" Brentley Carter replied, still in disbelief.

"Big shot or not, in front of you, Young Master Carter, I'm just a humble errand boy. If you ever need anything, you don't have to call General Manager Griffin, Just call me directly," Logan said respectfully, looking at Brentley.

Brentley looked at Logan with a helpless expression, unsure of how to describe his feelings at that moment.

Almost everyone in Sunshire City knew the name Logan Rodriguez. Naturally, Brentley had heard his classmates mention it a few times.

It was said that he was a big shot in Sunshire City, someone who had connections everywhere and controlled both the underworld and the legitimate business world. There were very few people in Sunshire City who dared to mess with him, and many of the city's establishments were actually under his control!

Brentley never dreamed that the legendary figure, Logan Rodriguez, would be driving him around and even asking him to call him Logan!

If Graham, Tyree and the others found out, they would probably be scared to death!

Ten minutes later.

Logan parked the Mercedes in front of the KTV where Brentley had previously rescued Farrah and Taylor. He then reached out to open the car door for Brentley and said softly, "Young Master Carter, I had my people look into it. The Jaxson Jordan you mentioned should be inside this KTV right now."

"Alright, let's go in and take a look," Brentley replied softly before heading straight into the KTV.

Moments later, Brentley found the private room he had entered earlier and pushed the door open.

Jaxson, who had been playing cards, froze for a moment when he saw Brentley walk in. Then, with a sneer, he said, "Well, well, if it isn't Brentley Carter! What brings you back? Are you here to lick my shoes?"

"Sorry, but it looks like my shoes are the ones that are dirty this time," Brentley replied calmly, a smile playing on his lips as he looked at Jaxson.
