She said she had no money, but Hector Vaughn didn't believe her. He said her father was a university president, so how could she be broke? Sylvia Vaughn had no choice but to swallow her pride, lie to her family, and borrow money from her classmates.
What was most despicable was that during this time, Hector Vaughn had twice demanded she get a hotel room with him, and she was the one who paid for it each time. In the room, Hector Vaughn acted like a sadist, tormenting her to the point of unbearable agony. If she showed even the slightest reluctance, he would threaten her, holding her future and her father's reputation hostage.
In short, when faced with Hector Vaughn's threats, Sylvia Vaughn was completely powerless to resist.
