The Female Leads Truly Loves You - Chapter 375

Chapter 375: Sam was playing him?
“Is this the place?”

Fifth Street was still bustling close to eleven o’clock.

Drunken men and women, young people in bizarre outfits, and those who seemed high and staggering around filled the street.

At this hour, Fifth Street was definitely not a good place, at least not for Sam. To him, it represented the darker side of a bustling city.

A place overflowing with material desires, filled with chaos and lust.

Of course, it was also the perfect breeding ground for criminal activities.

Louis, standing beside him, nodded.

“Last time, I saw him here…”

Sam looked at him curiously.

“How did you find him here?”

Louis hesitated before answering, “Lily told me… he might be here.”

“So you just came because she said so? Weren’t you afraid of the danger?”

Sam found it both amusing and pitiful.

This world is like that. Most people lament losing their innocence, yet they are often the ones who bully the honest.

Louis gave a silly smile, looking somewhat innocent.

“It was a spur-of-the-moment thing. I thought of being a hero and got all fired up.”

“Let’s go in and see. Wait, let me make a call.”

Sam suddenly stopped Louis. The naive boy watched as Sam stepped aside and made a low-voiced call.

He didn’t know who Sam was calling.

Could it be Angel? Given her family’s influence, they could probably handle this.

After finishing the call, Sam returned. “Alright, let’s go in.”

Louis thought for a moment but didn’t ask who Sam had called. He realized something—Sam was more mature than he had thought.

Though Sam’s words often made him seem different from other boys their age, it was only when faced with real problems that Louis could see the more tangible differences.

Louis followed Sam into the bar, which was even more chaotic than he had imagined.

Cigar smoke filled the air, lights flickered, loud music blared, and conversations were noisy.

Sam took a quick look around and saw scantily clad men and women mingling, some drinking together, others embracing.

Some were even more blatant, stripping naked and having sex in public, clearly drunk out of their minds.

Sam felt a bit nauseous, seeing so many unfiltered displays of depravity.

It made him wonder what kind of person that man was.

As Sam and Louis searched for that man, a woman in a short, sexy skirt with dyed red hair suddenly appeared in front of them.

She immediately locked eyes with Sam.

“Hey there, handsome. Haven’t seen you around. First time here?”

Sam looked at her.

Her lips were painted with bright red lipstick, and her makeup was heavy and seductive. But Sam could see the fine lines around her eyes, barely hidden by the makeup, revealing her age.

She dressed like she was twenty, but she was at least in her forties.

Sam didn’t avoid her gaze and smiled.

“We’re looking for someone.”

The woman smiled and moved closer to Sam.

“Many people come here looking for someone. Some are looking for a temporary sex partner… You’re so handsome. Do you need me to be your temporary sex partner?”

Louis was stunned.

It was his first time seeing such a bold woman.

But Sam knew most people here were like that, with no sense of restraint, doing whatever they felt like.

He smiled.

“A sex partner can wait. Finding someone is more important right now. Louis… what’s his name again?”

Sam turned to ask.

“Uh… Kevin…”

The woman paused.

“Looking for KK, huh.”

“KK?”

The woman smiled at Sam.

“Everyone here calls Kevin KK. If you’re looking for him, you should know that.”

Sam remained calm, flashing a charming smile.

“We’re close, so I don’t use nicknames. You understand?”

The woman moved closer, her cheap perfume making Sam want to sneeze.

“Is that so~ I happen to know where he is, but what’s in it for me if I tell you?”

Sam smiled. “I’ll buy you a drink later.”

The woman immediately brightened up, her hand almost reaching for Sam’s chest.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you. Maybe after the drink, we can do something else. He’s on the second floor with his friends.”

“Thanks.”

Sam led Louis towards the stairs.

Louis looked at him curiously.

“In movies, don’t they usually slip some cash into a woman’s cleavage at times like this? You just got it done like that?”

Sam said, annoyed, “Do you know what a pretty boy is? A handsome face is a free pass. No need for money.”

“So are you really going to have a drink with her later?”

“Drink my ass. Just looking at her makes me want to puke.”

Louis thought about it. If that woman had been all over him… he might not have been able to handle it, even though he didn’t find her particularly attractive. But she was… provocative.

They went upstairs.

Compared to the first floor, the second floor was much quieter.

But as soon as they reached the top, they heard laughter from the far end.

Louis looked over and whispered.

“Kevin’s over there… see the guy with the cigar and the glass?”

Sam’s eyesight was better, and he immediately spotted the man.

He looked to be in his twenties, wearing a black studded leather jacket, a classic biker outfit.

Kevin was lounging casually, drinking and laughing with three or four others.

“Hahaha… you wouldn’t believe it, that schoolgirl the other day, she looked plain, but her tits were huge, like a cow’s! She seemed so innocent at first, but as soon as I stuck my cock in, she turned into a slut, hahaha…”

Sam led Louis over.

Someone noticed them and nudged Kevin, who was drinking.

Kevin turned, frowning at the tall, handsome boy he had never seen before.

He was puzzled but then noticed the furious Louis beside him.

He paused, then smiled.

“Oh, it’s you. Here to pay up? Or did you bring your buddy to get revenge?”

Louis clenched his fists, his face turning red.

“You bastard…”

Sam held Louis back, calmly looking at Kevin.

“You’re Kevin, right?”

Kevin smiled, lifting one leg and placing it arrogantly on the table, blowing a puff of smoke at Sam.

“Yeah, that’s me. Who the fuck are you? Either pay up or get lost. I’m having a good time.”

Facing Kevin’s arrogant words, Sam calmly smiled.

“I’ve heard the whole story. If I give you fifty thousand dollars, will you delete all those photos?”

Hearing this, Kevin’s grin widened, looking even more disgusting in Sam’s eyes.

“Heh heh. Of course, I run my business with integrity. Everyone on this street knows KK keeps his word.”

His cronies laughed, whether at his words or at the seemingly naive, handsome young man standing before them.

Sam nodded with a smile.

But what he said was, “You call extorting money with a girl’s private photos a business?”

Kevin’s face twisted into a scowl, glaring at Sam.

“What the fuck do you mean?”

Hearing Kevin’s words, the others immediately changed their expressions, glaring at Sam and Louis. Louis instinctively took a step back but, seeing Sam standing firm, he mustered the courage to step closer to Sam.

Sam smiled at the now hostile Kevin.

“Nothing much. I brought the money, but if you consider this a business, I find it hard to trust you’ll keep your word.”

Sam pulled out a thick envelope from his pocket, making Kevin’s eyes light up.

He could tell this boy was no ordinary person, with his handsome looks and confident demeanor. Maybe some rich kid.

But Kevin wasn’t scared; he even saw Sam as a cash cow.

His smile widened, eyes fixed on the envelope.

“Don’t worry. My reputation on this street is solid. Give me the money, and not only will I give you the photos, but we can also be friends. If you run into trouble here, just mention my name.”

Louis chimed in, “You have to delete the backups too!”

Kevin laughed, looking at Louis.

“Don’t worry, I’ll delete them. Want me to send you a copy to enjoy? You like her the most, right? Let me tell you, she may seem cold, but she’s a real slut in bed…”

Hearing this, Louis couldn’t hold back his anger.

“You bastard! You’re lying! You tricked her into bed! You’re scum…!”

“Hahaha, drugged her? Is that what she told you? Hahaha!”

Kevin laughed so hard he almost cried, making Louis hesitate.

Kevin, wiping tears of laughter, pointed at Louis.

“You’re such an idiot. Believing a girl like that? Let me tell you the truth. I did take her out for drinks, but I didn’t get her drunk.”

“Impossible…”

“I may not be a good guy, but where’s the fun in doing it on purpose? I just bought her a few drinks, bragged about my money and influence. Guess what? She said she wouldn’t go home that night and wanted to sleep with me, hahaha!”

“Impossible!! You’re lying! You piece of trash!!”

Louis’s eyes turned red with rage, ready to charge. Sam quickly held him back.

Kevin continued taunting.

“Impossible? Want to see the photos? She doesn’t look drunk at all. I even recorded a video, full view, no blind spots. Want to watch it now and jerk off in the bathroom? Hahaha, watching your goddess suck my cock, you’d love that, right? Hahaha!!”

“Let me go, I’ll kill him! Sam, let me go!!”

Sam held Louis tightly, speaking calmly.

“Don’t be impulsive. Trust me, let me handle this.”

“But…”

“No buts. Do you trust me?”

Louis, under Sam’s words, calmed down a bit, looking into Sam’s eyes, feeling a sense of reliability.

He even forgot that this boy was just a high school student like him.

“I… I understand.”

Seeing Louis calm down, Sam turned to Kevin.

“If it wasn’t on purpose, why did you take those photos and blackmail her?”

Kevin dropped the act, casually leaning back.

“Why not? Girls like her, I’ve seen plenty. Just a taste, not like I’d be friends with her. Kid, you’re handsome, you should understand. Freebies are a waste if you don’t take them.”

Sam couldn’t help but sneer.

“I don’t understand what you’re saying, but I’ll give you the money. I have one condition.”

“Condition? Are you giving the money or not? If you piss me off, I might spread the photos. Don’t think about calling the cops; I’ve got multiple copies.”

Sam just looked at him.

“Do you want the money or not?”

Kevin, getting annoyed, roughly stubbed out his cigar.

“What condition, you fuck…”

“Apologize to my friend.”

“What…?!”

Kevin’s eyes widened.

Sam smiled at him.

“My friend may be naive, but at least he didn’t lie to me. I think he’s a man. Compared to you, he’s a real man. So, apologize to him.”

Hearing this, Louis’s eyes reddened, feeling a lump in his throat.

He thought, Sam really doesn’t look down on me.

How do I deserve such a good friend…

But Kevin realized he was being played.

Fifty thousand dollars for an apology?

He stood up.

“You fuck, playing me…”

Sam smiled at him.

“Fifty thousand not enough? How about a hundred thousand?”

“A hundred thousand…”

“Would two hundred thousand make you kneel and apologize?”

“You…”

Kevin was confused.

He wasn’t particularly wealthy, not a big shot. A hundred thousand, two hundred thousand… that would last him a long time.

For a moment, looking at this confident boy, he didn’t know if it was real.

What if it was?

For someone like him, dignity wasn’t important. Money was.

Seeing Kevin’s hesitation, Sam laughed.

“See, it’s clear who’s the scum. Two hundred thousand to kneel and apologize, you’re really cheap.”

If there was any hesitation before, now Kevin realized he was being mocked.

Sam was playing him?!

He grabbed a bottle from the table, swinging it at Sam’s head.

“You fuck, you’re dead!!”

“Bang!”
