America 1919

Donnie, having arrived at the venue, naturally had something to say during the award ceremony as the organizer.

Standing on the stage, Jessica Dole looked at Donnie, who was less than three meters away. She couldn't understand how these bigshots could, after breaching a contract, still maintain their composure and tell everyone that their competition was entirely fair, just, and open.

Did these people have no shame at all?

Throughout the event that followed, Jessica Dole observed Donnie, wanting to see even a trace of regret on his face, or any sign of avoidance when faced with her questioning gaze.

But the outcome left Jessica Dole feeling helpless because, from beginning to end, Donnie showed no moral regret, and even when making eye contact, he would casually raise his glass as a gesture.

At that moment, Jessica Dole realized something: to someone like Donnie Block, she was probably worthless!

Feeling dispirited at that moment, especially upon seeing Carmen Farmer's smug look and ostentatious behavior, Jessica Dole no longer wanted to stay there.

Setting down her glass, Jessica Dole left Block Tavern. She wanted to go home; perhaps her boyfriend was still waiting for her at home!

At the tavern's entrance, the salty sea breeze brushed her face, and as she looked at the people still loitering outside, Jessica Dole felt an immense emptiness inside. She wanted to escape this place that saddened her.

"Miss Dole, hello!"

Just as Jessica Dole was about to leave, Dwight approached her.

Jessica Dole knew Dwight to be Donnie's driver, and a man of some influence in Atlantic City. Her boyfriend had often said that if she could get to know Dwight, her life would change!

"Is there something you need?" said Jessica Dole, her tone neutral.

"Mr. Block asked me to wait for you here. He said you had already arranged a place, so he wanted me to take you to the hotel!"

Dwight spoke in a calm voice.

Jessica Dole, suddenly enraged, exclaimed, "Why should I? The competition is over, and Donnie Block didn't keep our promise. Why does he expect me to keep mine?"

Dwight's tone remained calm, "That's something Miss Dole needs to ask Mr. Block himself. I'm just a driver, responsible for taking you to the place. The rest is not for me to concern myself with."

Jessica Dole raised her voice, "I'm not going. I want to go home now!"

Dwight blocked Jessica Dole's path and said calmly, "Of course, if Miss Dole wants to go home we won't force you, but Mr. Block asked me to tell you, don't you want to know why the result turned out this way?

Besides, Mr. Block also said that Miss Dole should know the consequences of refusing Mr. Block's invitation in Atlantic City!"

A strong feeling of helplessness rose within Jessica Dole's heart. Indeed, she was just a small figure in Atlantic City. When facing someone like Donnie Block, did she really have a choice?

Maybe, if she rejected Donnie Block now, she would be sleeping on the streets tomorrow!

Besides, there was another question in Jessica Dole's heart, she wanted to ask Donnie why he treated her this way!

.

That is what Jessica Dole thought, and what she did. So when Donnie arrived at the hotel, Jessica Dole asked about her doubts.

"Why? Why treat me like this? You clearly promised me!"

Donnie had by then taken off his jacket and was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching the angry Jessica Dole, simply patting beside him with a nonchalant air.

"I'm very tired today. Now you need to give me a massage!"

Jessica Dole was stunned there, not understanding why Donnie could still so casually and nonchalantly give orders to her.

Seeing that Jessica Dole made no move, Donnie said coldly, "I don't want to talk nonsense now. Do as I command, or you can guess the consequences."

As Jessica Dole met Donnie's indifferent gaze, a shiver went through her heart, and all her anger turned to fear.

The legends about Donnie Block in Atlantic City were certainly not all good.

Ultimately, Jessica Dole once again submitted, kneeling on the bed to gently massage Donnie!

Donnie, enjoying the massage from Jessica Dole, let out a comfortable moan.

It was only after he felt his body relax that he turned to look at Jessica Dole, observing her angry but hesitant expression, her look full of suffering yet unwilling to accept her fate, that a certain beastly instinct in Donnie suddenly erupted...

When everything was over, Donnie lit a cigarette for himself.

"Want to know why it ended up like this today?"

Upon hearing Donnie finally speak normally, Jessica Dole clutched the blanket and nodded.

"It's simple, because you couldn't make it into the top three, that's the biggest gain for me. As for your issue!"

Pausing, Donnie then continued, "Starry Entertainment will invest in a Hollywood movie company after the Miss America finals, and fund several movies. I will arrange for you to be the female lead in one of the movies. Whether you can seize this opportunity will depend on whether you can impress the audience then!"
