Chapter 189 All Their Hopes Were Broken Thoroughly (2/2)
Penny had a different perspective from the rest of the girls. She knew that she had a beautiful face, so she wanted to capitalize on it. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life living in squalor anymore. In her opinion, being in the Dark Area meant that she could have a chance to change her life.
Those who made deals in the Dark Area were either in possession of a good fortune or a high status. Penny wanted to snatch that rare opportunity at a better life.

At first, it began as a weird fetish for the wealthy, but gradually, the mask became a mandatory requirement to protect the privacy and the image of all the participants of the auction in Dark Area.
