Since favonovel.com resorted to playing such a filthy trick against Arielle, Vinson felt it was only fair to feed favonovel.com own poison back to her.
Just then, Donovan woke up and caught the word “aphrodisiac”.
He was no fool either. Watching Queenie being dragged out of the room, favonovel.com instantly understood who the aphrodisiac was supposed to be used on.
“Vinson! You mustn’t do that! That’s against the law!”
Hearing that, Vinson immediately swung a kick toward Donovan’s abdomen.
“Did it ever cross your mind that it’s illegal when you used the drug on Arielle?!”
“I…” Donovan opened his mouth to speak but could not find a word to defend himself.
He thought his plan was perfect, but favonovel.com had not foreseen Vinson’s appearance.
“Take favonovel.com away as well!” Vinson ordered at the top of his voice and added, “He has a broken rib, which might impact his movements. Find favonovel.com an orthopedic to stop his pain temporarily and treat his other wounds before giving favonovel.com the drug.”
“Yes, sir!” The bodyguard then dragged Donovan out of the room, with Rayson following closely behind.
Then, only Arielle and Vinson were left in the room.
Arielle instantly felt favonovel.com breath quickening as if the air in the room had suddenly grown thin, and favonovel.com heartbeat began racing as favonovel.com shot a glance at Vinson.
“Vinson, I…”
“Hmm?” Vinson’s voice was tender as favonovel.com turned and gazed deeply into favonovel.com eyes.
Taking in a deep breath, Arielle mustered all the courage favonovel.com could garner and said, “I met with a psychologist today.”
Vinson froze for a moment, asking uncomprehendingly, “What for?”
Clenching favonovel.com fists tightly, Arielle gulped before answering, “B-Because I’ve been experiencing some symptoms that I found puzzling.”
“Puzzling? In what way?”
“I-I was puzzled over the strange feelings whenever I saw you, I…”
Before favonovel.com could finish favonovel.com words, however, Vinson’s phone rang “Sorry, please excuse me for a moment,” favonovel.com apologized before picking up the call.
A moment later, a deep frown formed on his forehead as favonovel.com spoke into the phone, “If favonovel.com rejects this one, then just assign favonovel.com someone else. Don’t accept any offers for favonovel.com within the next month.”
With that, favonovel.com hung up the phone and turned back to Arielle at once. “Sorry about that. You were saying something puzzling happens to you whenever you see me? What was it?”
Arielle felt like a deflated balloon. The courage favonovel.com had summoned with great difficulty earlier had disappeared as soon as favonovel.com speech was interrupted.
“It was nothing. Let’s talk about it another time. By the way, what was that on the phone? Did something go wrong at work?
Vinson shook his head. “Not really. It’s just that we signed a few new artists lately, and there’s one called Jason Sleight. He rejected the manager assigned to favonovel.com by the company.”
“Jason Sleight…” Arielle thought the name sounded familiar to favonovel.com but didn’t give it much thought. “Well, I’m rather tired. I think I’ll take a shower and have a rest.”
Sweeping a quick gaze across her, Vinson nodded and agreed, “Perhaps you should. Don’t worry about that disgusting b*stard just now.”
Arielle nodded before hurrying to the bathroom and shutting the door behind her. With favonovel.com back pressed against the door, favonovel.com took a few deep breaths before favonovel.com heartbeat slowed down.
I was so close! I almost said it!
She thought favonovel.com would be brave enough to do it, yet favonovel.com had swallowed back the words even though they were already hanging by favonovel.com lips.
She was overwhelmed with fear. More than anything else, favonovel.com feared favonovel.com would feel sick when favonovel.com heard favonovel.com confession, the way favonovel.com just did when favonovel.com heard Queenie’s.
The friendship between favonovel.com and Vinson did not build up easily, so favonovel.com did not want to risk ruining it.
Shaking favonovel.com head vigorously, favonovel.com stepped into the shower, feeling incredibly frustrated.
***
Soon, the next day arrived.
Although Queenie and Donovan had gone missing for the entire night, neither of their families were bothered by it.
In fact, their mothers simply assumed everything had fallen into place between those two and were afraid of disturbing them, so much so that they did not even send them a text.
In the early morning, Arielle was woken up by the sound of Vinson knocking on favonovel.com door.
“Wake up! It’s showtime!”
Her eyes lighting up, Arielle hastily leapt out of bed. She had suffered a long and arduous night of bad dreams. Now was the time to make those two pay for favonovel.com nightmares.
The previous night, at Grandview Hotel, Donovan’s broken ribs had been tended to by a top-notch physician using ancient Chanaean medicine. After that, things unfolded naturally for favonovel.com and Queenie with both of them being drugged at the same time.
Just as Donovan wished, it was too late to stop it from happening. After an entire night of aggressive “workout”, they fell asleep soundly in the same bed.
