Chapter 1

My Beautiful Neighbor’s Boyfriend Cheated on Her, So She Asked Me to Help Teach Him a Lesson.

But afterward, her boyfriend found me and claimed she had a contagious disease.

Then she sent me a medical report proving she was clean.

So who was sick—and who was lying to me?

My name is Jason Reed. I’m thirty years old, and I work as an ordinary appliance repairman, the kind who makes house calls.

It’s exhausting work, but I don’t have a degree or any special skills, so I have no choice but to work as much as I can just to get by.

I spent a thousand dollars renting a cheap apartment in the city. And let me tell you, it was definitely cheap. The walls didn’t block sound at all. I could hear everything happening next door.

That night, I was lying awake again.

Through the wall came the sounds of bodies colliding and a woman’s cries.

The air was still hot and stuffy. The old fan beside my bed rattled as it blew, but instead of cooling me down, it only made the heat burning in my lower body worse.

This was the fourth time that week.

And they had only moved in seven days ago!

The neighbors were a young couple. I’d seen them briefly on the day they moved in. The woman was Bella Hart, and the man was Evan Cole. They had just arrived in the city to make a living and didn’t have much money, so they rented the cheapest place they could find.

I had to admit, Bella was gorgeous.

She had big eyes, a delicate face, and a sexy, curvy figure that could make a man’s blood run hot after only a few glances.

Evan, on the other hand, was average. He wasn’t short or overweight, just a little bulky. He was broke, too. I had no idea how a guy like him had managed to win over someone like Bella.

As the noise next door grew louder, I finally opened my eyes and kicked my legs in frustration.

Couldn’t they keep it down for two nights? Didn’t they have jobs? I had to get up early tomorrow!

I cursed Evan in my head while straining my ears to listen.

Damn, why did that woman sound so seductive? Could it really feel that good?

After a while, the noise finally faded. I let out a long breath. Slowly, my body began to relax, and I prepared to fall asleep.

But before I could even start dreaming, the noise began again.

Bella’s moans echoed through the cheap apartment.

I couldn’t take it anymore. I threw on some clothes and rushed to her door, ready to pound on it and tell them to shut up.

But before my raised hand could touch the door, it began shaking violently.

They were doing it against the door.

My mind went blank. I stood there stiff as a board and listened for a long time.

It was humiliating, standing there and eavesdropping. My face burned, and sweat covered my forehead. I could practically imagine what was happening on the other side.

Finally, a long, trembling moan pierced through the door and shot straight into my ears.

My fists tightened, then slowly loosened. I felt heat and dampness below my waist.

A cold draft swept through the hallway, making me shiver. I suddenly snapped back to reality and looked around in panic.

Fortunately, no one was there.

Afraid someone would mistake me for a pervert, I hurried back to my apartment.

The noise next door eventually stopped. I changed my underwear and tossed restlessly in bed for a long time before finally falling asleep.

The next morning, I dragged myself out of bed with two dark circles under my eyes. I spent the entire day rushing from one repair job to another.

By evening, I was exhausted, dizzy, and barely functioning. All I wanted was to go home, take a hot shower, and sleep.

But when I stepped into the hallway, I saw a woman with wild hair crouching in front of my door.

She was wearing white.

I nearly jumped out of my skin and stumbled backward.

The motion-activated light above us flickered on, and I finally got a good look at her.

It was Bella.
