” I’ve heard that Jessie is also your property.” Joseph Edward said.
“That’s right, but why do you care?” Derek said.
” I’m wondering if Jessie is for sale.” Joseph Edward said.
“What!” Jessie was surprised.
Jessie looks at Derek, but he ignores her and pretends to be in a quandary.
“I see. You have a good eye for choosing slaves. I’m a businessman, of course all my resources are for sale. It’s just that……” Derek said.
” Just what?” Joseph Edward said.
“It’s just that Jessie is different. She’s more expensive than others.” Derek said.
“I’ll give you a million.” Joseph Edward said.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Joseph Edward. I’m afraid one million won’t be enough.” Derek said.
“I only want her for one day.” Joseph Edward said.
” What? Are you sure?” Derek was surprised.
” I am! Would you like to sell her to me?” Joseph Edward said.
“Of course, I have no reason to refuse.”Derek was joyful.
Joseph Edward signs Jessie’s slave contract, and Jessie, though unwilling to be sold, dares not disobey Derek.
“Now you are my slave too, and I command you to go into the cage.” Joseph Edward said.
“Yes… Master.” Jessie said.
Jessie reluctantly enters the cage, and Joseph Edward looks at you.
“Hey, hit her the way she hit you yesterday!” Joseph Edward said.
“Yes, master!” You smiled at him.
You pick up a whip, go into the cage and whip Jessie. Jessie whines in pain. You don’t let her go until you are exhausted.
“Mr. Derek, could you please ring the bell and let the people in?” Joseph Edward said.
“What? Are you planning to resell her to others? I’m afraid no one is as generous as you.” Derek said.
“I have my own plan. Could you please do me the favor?” Joseph Edward said.
” Sure, no problem.” Derek said.
People pour in at the sound of the bell, though most of them are lookers-on. Everyone’s mouth waters when they see Jessie this beautiful slave.
“Listen up! I’m pleased to buy this slave today. However, I was brought up to share, so anyone here today can go into the cage and do whatever you want with my slave, and I will order her to obey you.” Joseph Edward said.
When people hear this, they are immediately filled with excitement.
” What are you guys still doing here? Go and get her!” Joseph Edward said.
In an instant, the crowd bursts into the cage like a group of hungry wolves. You could not see Jessie from outside, only her clothes are thrown out layer by layer with her screams and trampled by the crowd.
“Hey, my slave, that is what happens to people who bullied you.” Joseph Edward said.

“Hey, my slave, that is what happens to people who bullied you.” Joseph Edward said.
Neither you nor Joseph Edward speaks on your way back to the hotel. Jessie’s grimace in pain and Joseph Edward’s apathetic look still linger in your mind. You are flustered by what has happened and can’t help but feel like you don’t know the first thing about Joseph Edward.
“What’s on your mind?” said Joseph Edward.
“I’m wondering if we’re going too far with Jessie.” said you.
“Did she think it was too much when she tortured you?” said Joseph Edward.
“She did go too far, but that doesn’t mean we have to be like her.” said you.
“What’s your point?” said Joseph Edward.
“It’s like there is nothing wrong with a good guy fighting to protect himself when a bad guy hurts him. However, if the good man goes twice as far as to hurt the bad guy when the thing is already over, isn’t he worse than the later?” said you.
“Yes, that’s right.” said Joseph Edward.
“Are we wrong then?” said you.
“No, it’s wrong for a good person to do bad things, but I’m not a good person.” said Joseph Edward.
“What?” You’re surprised.
“In fact, I don’t quite agree with using good and bad to label people, I think one’s capability is a much better classification standard.” said Joseph Edward.
“Do you really think so?” said you.
“Trust me, you’ll see it sooner or later.” said Joseph Edward.
“Did you get a kick out of torturing Jessie?” said you.
” A little, don’t you feel the same?” said Joseph Edward.
“Actually, quite the contrary, I feel a little guilty, think this may be a little too much.” said you.
“You don’t have to blame yourself. She bullied you first and now she’s just getting what she deserves.” said Joseph Edward.
“Is it just that it turns you on?” You asked him.
“What do you mean?” He frowned.
“It seems to me that you just enjoy abusing people in general.” said you.
” Maybe you are right.” He said.
You and Joseph Edward fall silent again.
You look out the window and your mind starts to wander.
You don’t know what you’re facing, what kind of person Joseph Edward is.
“You’re scared, aren’t you?” said Joseph Edward.
“No, I am not.” You denied.
“Stop pretending. I can tell you are. What are you afraid of?” said Joseph Edward.
“You said you could tell.” said you.
“I want you to tell me.” said Joseph Edward.
“I’m afraid of you.” said you.
” Afraid of me for what?” said Joseph Edward.
” I realize I don’t understand you anymore. I start to wonder if I really know you.” said you.
” Haha, okay.” said Joseph Edward.
” What’s so funny?” said you.
“Have you ever wondered if you really know yourself?” said Joseph Edward.
Joseph Edward’s words catch you. You try to identify yourself with a certain type of people, but you find that you can’t. You are none of them.
“You’re afraid I’ll hurt you one day, aren’t you?” said Joseph Edward.
” I won’t deny that it’s part of the reason.” said you.
“Remember, you are still my slave for now. You are my property, and I am everything to you.” said Joseph Edward.
Joseph Edward’s attitude is firm and unassailable. You look at the bracelet on your wrist and have no choice but to accept the fact.
” I see, master.” said you.
” I’m also afraid of the future.” said you.
“Afraid of what in the future?” said Joseph Edward.
” I’m just scared because I don’t know what’s going to happen in the future.” said you.
” I’m not like you. I’m excited about the future.” said Joseph Edward.
” Excited about what?” said you.
“Just like you, I’m excited because I don’t know what’s going to happen. The difference between us is that you always see the negative side, while I see the positive side.” said Joseph Edward.
” No, the difference between us is that you have absolute control over your future, and I’ve completely lost control of the future.” said you.
“You don’t have to control the future because you’re my slave. Just listen to me.” said Joseph Edward.
