Chapter 8 The Drug in Wine
The assistant stared wide eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched, ''Ap... aphrodisiac? So you and the manager last night..." President Miller forced her?
"..." In front of his subordinates, Kevin was embarrassed. At the same time, he had some new views on last night's event.
If it was true that Emma had been forcibly left behind all night by the aphrodisiac he had been drugged with last night...
That was he ruined her innocence!
He could not imagine that such a thing would happen to him. His face turned even darker, and he was full of chagrin.
It must be President Short's daughter who did this. Last night at the reception, he noticed that she looked at him a little too hot in the eyes. The business reception should not have been attended by women, but she came very suddenly. As soon as she saw him, she deliberately came to speak to him. As there were other people present, he reacted to her politely. But the woman got excited and kept approaching him, and finally, she stood beside him like his female companion.
As soon as he had finished his glass of wine, she served him a new one with great earnestness. Now it seemed that something was wrong with that glass. That woman was supposed to be thinking of drugging him, taking the opportunity to climb into his bed, and...
However, his assistant was well trained. As soon as he felt uncomfortable, the assistant moved him swiftly and directly to take him away without allowing others to take advantage.
It turns out that the innocent Emma had become a victim...
"Damn it!"
The assistant understood the situation this time and was full of embarrassment, "Sorry, President Miller, it is me who did not distinguish your situation..."
Naturally, it could not be blamed entirely on the assistant. Kevin took a few puffs before throwing his finished cigarette on the ground and stomping it out.
However, what bothered him even more now was that if Emma was forced by him, then why on earth would she feel unconcerned?
Was not a woman supposed to value her first man? Even if...even if it was not someone she liked, it would be normal to at least cry and make a scene instead of being indifferent like she was now...
His face tensed again at the thought that he was not the one she liked, damn it!
He had lived 28 years and had never been so frustrated in his life!
"Is your boss chasing you? "
"What if it is possible?"
These two words haunted Emma all night. Until she could not sleep for several times and look at her watch, she realized that it was two in the morning.
She had been in a state of confusion. First, she did not understand why Kevin had come tonight. Second, what her mother had said really scared her.
Was Kevin chasing her? Was it really possible? It was impossible to even think about it!
Maybe he came here just to make sure that she was not going to bother him. The words he said at last about waiting for her maybe was actually the opposite. If she did, he might sneer and say, "Look! you said that you did not care about it. That is a lie. Women are all the same, they rush to make a fool of themselves when they see a rich and handsome man! Women, heh!"
Had she been reading too many similar novels lately? Why were these words all over her head?
Finally, she drifted off to sleep in a daze.
The next day, she slept until nearly noon. She woke up and found that the dark circles under the eyes did not recede, but even darker. Looking at herself in the mirror, she wanted to cry. She originally wanted to use the two rest days to make up for the sleep back, but she did not expect to be more tired.
In the afternoon, when Emma was in the yard with her father pruning a few potted plants, she received a call from her best friend Mary Carter who asked her out for the afternoon tea.
"Go for it." Mr. Wood said.
Emma went back to her room and changed her clothes, going out to meet her friend.
