Part 1Buying My Sister's Crush: A Dangerous Game

To get back at the fake heiress who stole my life, I became the sugar mommy to her ultimate crush.

I tormented him in every way possible, watching him seethe with anger: "Chloe, this kind of cheap trick is all you're good for."

That only turned me on more. I wrung him dry, time and time again.

Until a line of text suddenly floated in the air right before my eyes: [This female supporting character is literally begging for death.]

[Liam is the sole heir to the wealthiest family in the country. The day he returns to the Sterling family is the day she dies.]

I was so terrified I fell right back onto Liam's lap.

"Hiss." Hearing his muffled groan of pain, I dumped him without a backward glance.

It wasn't until the day I returned from abroad for my arranged marriage that Liam, his face cold as ice, sneered: "I thought you were so tough?"

I tilted my head, looking at the man whose hands I had bound with silk ribbons.

I offered a sweet smile, leaning close to his ear: "Tell me, do you think Mia knows that in private, you're so..."

I whispered the very last word incredibly softly.

Liam closed his eyes, clearly disdaining to even acknowledge me.

My fingertips traced a path from his cheek down to his collarbone, and finally rested on his abs.

"It'd be great if she got the chance to see this someday."

Liam's eyes snapped open: "Do you think everyone is as shameless as you?

"Chloe, this kind of cheap trick is all you're good for."

I let out a soft laugh and bit his collarbone. "Naughty. That's a punishment."

Liam pressed his lips tightly together, lost in his own thoughts.

Having just finished our "workout," I was feeling a bit tired, but his reaction instantly reignited my interest.

Just as I was about to make a move, the space in front of me suddenly distorted.

Immediately following, a line of text floated in the air: [I have to admit, they look incredibly good together.]

[This female supporting character is literally begging for death.]

[Liam is the sole heir to the wealthiest family in the country. The day he returns to the Sterling family is the day she dies.]

[If the female supporting character doesn't act like an idiot begging for death, how else are we supposed to highlight the female lead's pure and kind nature?]

I was terrified by the words floating in front of me, and my butt dropped heavily right onto Liam.

"Hiss." Liam couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.

I clamped my hand over his mouth: "Don't make a sound."

Liam glared at me with annoyance, his eyes demanding to know what crazy phase I was going through now.

[Why did they stop moving? Even though it's censored with a mosaic blur, just seeing their silhouettes is pretty hot.]

[What kind of nasty trick is the female supporting character plotting now?]

That confirmed it. Those comments were definitely talking about me and Liam.

I scrutinized the man in front of me.

Broad shoulders, long legs, exquisite facial features, and skin like jade.

I had to admit, even though I only approached him to get back at Mia, Liam was absolutely, 100% my type.

But remembering what those floating comments said, I was genuinely scared.

My life was definitely more important.

Liam was almost suffocating under my hand, so I quickly let go.

"Cough, cough! What kind of crazy episode are you having now?!"

Watching the man's naturally pale skin flush with a layer of red, I quickly recited my mantra: Form is emptiness, emptiness is form.

Before Liam could fully react, I quickly grabbed a silk ribbon and blindfolded him.

He was used to my antics and just let me do as I pleased.

Once he couldn't see a thing, I grabbed my clothes and snuck out as fast as I could.
