Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire

5. Comply

She had just gotten crazy inspiration from Jason, but then Amber remembered that she was upset because she had been embarrassed by Glenn in front of the entire campus that day. 

How could she embarrass herself further by begging for the acceptance of that foolish man? 

The word 'foolish' she attributed to Glenn left her stunned. She thought about Glenn's appearance today, his way of speaking, body language, clothes, and strikingly different appearance.

 "Ugh... I don't know; it seems like that foolish man is now hard for me to control," Amber suddenly complained. 

Jason approached her and affectionately wrapped his arm around Amber's waist. 

"How could it be, baby... Isn't he so crazy about you like I do? I think he's acting that way to get your attention. He's playing hard to get," Jason instigated in her ear. 

After that, he gently blew into Amber's ear, arousing her, which made her immediately smirk mischievously and invite Jason to satisfy their desires. 

After fulfilling their desires, they are exhausted and lay back. Then, they discussed what Amber would do next, how to introduce Jason into Glenn's life and make him accept Jason as her colleague. 

Once that happened, their journey to unite and take over the Smith Family fortune wouldn't be difficult anymore.

The two love-struck humans were planning their future, using Glenn as their sacrifice to achieve the life they had always dreamed of. 

"Aren't you going to be jealous?" teased Amber mischievously. 

Jason snorted, "Of course I am! That's why you can't sleep with him too often!" threatened Jason possessively, making Amber laugh happily.

The next day on campus, Amber stepped out of her car and immediately dialled Glenn's number on her phone. The call kept diverting, furrowing her eyebrows in surprise. 

"Did that foolish man block my contact? How dare he!" she grumbled angrily. 

Knowing where he usually spent his time, typically at the campus library, she marched in that direction. Seeing her angry expression, some onlookers quickly moved aside to avoid Amber's potential outburst. 

Despite her beauty, she was known as a high-maintenance, arrogant, and quick-tempered woman. 

*SLAM* 

She pushed open the library door forcefully, and the librarian, who was about to scold the disturber, immediately fell silent upon recognising who caused the disturbance. 

So did other students who were disturbed by the commotion but chose to stay quiet to avoid getting involved in Amber's drama. 

Amber's eyes scanned for Glenn's figure. 

He usually sat near the east-facing window, the darkest spot, as he disliked the afternoon sunlight. But she couldn't find him there. 

Frustrated again, she turned and left the room, making it evident to everyone that she was searching for someone. 

Amber tried dialling Glenn's number as she walked, but her call was rejected again. 

Her frustration escalated; it wasn't typical for her to seek out Glenn like this. Usually, he would appear without her asking, trailing her like her personal assistant. 

"Okay, you foolish man, you've successfully caught my attention. You'll face consequences once I find you," Amber vowed, her steps quickening with impatience. 

As she passed the cafeteria, she heard a commotion, as if an exciting show was happening there. Curiosity struck her. 

Who was this new person stealing the attention of the other students from her?

She disliked others stealing her spotlight. 

In the midst of the crowd, she saw Glenn entertaining a group of women, sitting proudly among them. 

He was regaling them with tales of his travels abroad last year, narrating his experience riding hot air balloons in Cappadocia and enjoying a romantic dinner there with his family. He even flirted with one of the girls, causing them to squeal in delight.

While the female students were busy imagining romantic dinners and trips abroad with Glenn on his private jet, sipping champagne at 40.000 heights, admiring his current charming and charismatic appearance, the male students could only sigh in envy. 

They knew only Glenn could offer such luxury.

Amber pushed through the crowd, attempting to approach Glenn. Her face was irritated. 

Amber gave the women surrounding Glenn a pointed look. Understandingly, they moved away; everyone knew that Glenn was Amber's property. And they realized not to mess with Amber.

Then, just glancing at those still lingering students in the crowd, Amber dispersed them. 

Glenn chuckled and sighed lazily, expecting the drama Amber was about to unleash on him. She stood before him, hands on hips, clearly aiming to assert her superiority. 

"I've been looking for you!”

“Why was your phone off?!” 

“I will hold you accountable for this. If you want my attention again, you'll have to work harder than ever before," Amber quipped, turning her face to the side, expecting Glenn to appease her immediately. 

Laughter erupted from Glenn, catching Amber off guard that his initial response was to laugh at her.

"Do you think this is funny?! I'm serious!" Amber snapped angrily. 

Glenn remained silent, then stood up. Now, they faced each other because of Glenn's tall and imposing stature, forcing Amber to step back to see him properly. 

"What if I don't want to and I don't care?" scoffed Glenn in front of Amber. 

Again, she had to step back, surprised by Glenn's sudden change in attitude. 

‘This guy is getting bolder!’

‘What's with his attitude?!’

‘What did he just say? He doesn't care anymore?’

‘Shit, if he's serious about his words, then what about my parents' plans and Jason?’ Amber thought, biting her lip.

"Y-you're joking; I know you're not serious about what you just said," protested Amber, unwilling to accept it.

"Oh, Amber... You're not the only woman in the world," Glenn replied indifferently, glancing at his expensive Rolex watch, seemingly pressed for time. 

As Glenn was about to turn and leave, Amber stopped him by extending her hand in front of him. 

She was in too deep now, setting aside her pride and shamelessly expressing her desires. 

"I'm willing," she whispered, trying to contain her embarrassment. 

"Huh? What? I didn't hear that," teased Glenn. 

"I'M WILLING," Amber said again, this time with emphasis.

Glenn raised his eyebrows in surprise. 

"Willing for what? I'm not asking for your willingness to do anything," Glenn remarked. Amber's face flushed with embarrassment, feeling toyed with by Glenn. 

"I'm willing to comply with your family's traditions to be accepted as a Smith Family's prospective daughter-in-law," explained Amber. 

Glenn pursed his lips and nodded, now understanding the context of Amber's conversation.

"Is that so? You know that if you're willing, you have to comply with all its conditions," Glenn explained, and Amber nodded in agreement. 

"You'll have to sign a special confidentiality agreement and must not refuse requests from the employers in the house—me, Connor as the house manager, Father, and Mother," Glenn continued. 

Just imagining it made Amber's stomach churn. Throughout her life, she had never touched household chores; everything was done by the servants at her home. 

Despite being from a middle-class family, her parents pampered her immensely. Now, in order to marry a man she disliked, she had to humble herself. 

"S-sure," Amber replied hesitantly, feeling like her words were stuck in her throat. 

Glenn felt a sense of satisfaction he never imagined before, knowing that the arrogant woman in front of him was willing to submit herself for money. After this, he planned to have Connor and Ms. Eugene, the head maid, assist him in making this woman suffer.

"Alright then, come after classes are over. Change your clothes and appearance to look convincing. They won't hire a lazy woman. Come straight to this woman," Glenn pointed, handing her a paper with Ms. Eugene's name written on it. 

Amber accepted it with a sense of dismay. Her heart began to waver about continuing this mission, but the financial threat to her collapsing parents and the dreams of her beloved Jason finally solidified her determination. 

Glenn walked away feeling satisfied with himself; his plan was going smoothly. He glanced at his watch once more. 

He had never taken management and financial courses seriously in the past, but now it was different. That's why he relied on Jason as a business partner because of Jason's expertise in that field. 

Now, he was determined not to let anyone take over his parents' business. He needed to understand how their business operated and how to grow it in the future. 

Once a truant, following Amber wherever and whenever she wanted, now he strode confidently to class, determined to absorb all the knowledge. 

He had 12 years of experience to understand the practical application of that knowledge in his future company.
