Felton found himself in an unprecedented situation. He was born into the Keane family and enjoyed protection from Roy since childhood. As the designated heir, he had weathered numerous attacks. However, never before had a woman treated him in such a manner.For a moment, he was immobilized, particularly as Blake shamelessly groped him without any consideration for decency. She resembled a ravenous wolf, attacking Felton with swift and ruthless movements.Without hesitation, she boldly reached for his lower body, causing Felton to shiver as he desperately tried to push her away. Yet, weakened as he was, he couldn't withstand the onslaught of a woman, especially one as skilled as Blake.Felton struggled vehemently, using every bit of strength to finally push Blake away. Scrambling to get up, he aimed to escape this perilous situation. However, Blake was resolute. She knew that success was the only option today, as failure would mean losing her chance forever.The moment Felton rose f
As Margot concluded her words, she refrained from advancing further, instead crouching beside Felton in an attempt to feel his pulse. She continued, "In the Reed family, every member, even the servants, possesses a certain understanding of medicine. I can't vouch for other places, but within the Reed family, the only problem is that there's no chance to showcase our skills."While expressing this, Margot's hand had already settled on Felton's wrist. However, the moment her hand made contact with Felton, he reflexively pushed her away with surprising force, causing the unprepared Margot to tumble backward onto the ground.Margot sat frozen on the ground for a moment before regaining her composure. Hearing Margot's earlier words, Sandra, who had hastily approached, found the scene displeasing. She sternly commanded, "Margot, step back."Margot hadn't expected such a trivial matter to catch her grandmother's attention, and her face paled with fear. She quickly rose, bowing her head in
"How is this even possible?" After the initial shock, disbelief etched across Sandra's face. She took two steps back, visibly staggered.Taylor continued to shake his head, exclaiming, "This is impossible! Since Grandma assumed control, the Reed family has never encountered another case of Lover's Poison. Grandma enforced strict orders, and the formula, along with the secretly cultivated herbs, was entirely eradicated. How could this happen again?"Faye chuckled, probing, "So, are you suggesting that decades ago, the Reed family did experience Lover's Poison?"Taylor, realizing he had divulged some information, nervously opened his mouth and glanced at Sandra.Sandra sighed deeply, suddenly appearing considerably older.Quickly assisting her to sit down, Taylor whispered reassuringly, "Grandma, Ms. Faye is not a stranger, she ..."Taylor glanced at Faye, seeking her opinion on whether he should reveal her identity.Faye shrugged, signaling that it was acceptable. After all, Sand
"If you don't believe me, you can find some time to visit the mountain yourself," Faye replied calmly.Sandra's spirits plummeted further with Faye's reply. If she asserted it, it was likely the truth. "How could you possibly know?" Sandra inquired.The rear expanse of the Reed estate was entirely encased by walls and electric fencing. Regular individuals couldn't approach without triggering infrared alarms and being apprehended by guards. Even those with some expertise would struggle to gain access. The medicinal herbs flourishing on the back mountain were indispensable treasures for the Reed family's survival. It was impossible for just anyone to enter casually.Naturally, the demand for medicinal herbs from the Reed family was significant. The herbs cultivated on the back mountain were only a fraction of the vital ones they produced. The primary plantation was located elsewhere. Furthermore, most of the herbs from Yale Pharmacy were directly provided to the Reed family.Indeed
"What kind of poison is this?" Edward questioned, furrowing his brow as the situation spiraled out of control. Was it something beyond a typical love potion or drug? His younger sister was merely a college graduate, so what harm could she inflict on Felton?It seemed likely that Felton had rejected her advances, leading her to act out of frustration. From Edward's perspective, it wasn't a significant issue. She hadn't truly harmed Felton. However, Sandra's expression made him uneasy, especially with Faye, Avery's good friend, standing alongside her. An instinctual feeling warned him that this woman might pose a threat.Sandra remained silent while Roy frowned and said, "Sandra, please be honest." Despite fearing his heart might not withstand the shock, he couldn't shake the feeling that Felton's situation was worse than he imagined. Roy was no longer a young man, and yet he had to endure this stress. His emotions were a mess.Sandra lowered her head, gazing at Blake on the gro
The Reed family, formerly infamous for numerous scandals involving Lovers' Poison, had weathered significant turmoil over the years. For decades now, Sandra had taken charge, strictly overseeing the family's pharmaceutical research. She promptly suppressed anything related to banned substances, particularly those linked to Lovers' Poison, determined to prevent the family from repeating past mistakes.Layla's predicament, initially an accident resulting from manipulation and framing by others, raised internal suspicions within the Reed family. Sandra's two sons, one of average talent but ambitious, constantly sought control through Taylor's skills. The other, despite modest natural gifts, delved into researching various peculiar drugs, especially poisons. Though not directly involved with banned substances, what if, by chance …Furthermore, the Reed family held a position in Jorn City equivalent to the royal family's official medicine supplier. Sandra, a woman in control, faced
"Ah, ah … No ..."As the recording initiated, a woman's delicate voice emanated from the playback. Despite the absence of a video feed, an uncomfortably explicit scene unfolded on the screen.Karston's hand trembled as he gripped the mouse. The voice persisted. "Oh, darling, I … want it … Love me ..."Karston's quivering hand inadvertently prolonged the playback, leaving everyone in the vicinity frozen, bombarded by the explicit visuals and accompanying sounds. Was this the incriminating evidence Blake had mentioned?The woman in the video was unquestionably Blake herself. The man accompanying her remained mysterious. His back was facing the camera, leaving his identity obscured. Nevertheless, the shocking nature of the scene reverberated through the onlookers. Blake, just out of university and in her early 20s, the fiancée and future heir of the Keane family, engaging in such behavior before marriage was startling enough. The fact that she had recorded and brought it here to p
Margot shrugged and said casually, "That's right. Why would I frame you? We aren't friends or enemies. We aren't in conflict or at odds. You have nothing I want, so what can I get from setting you up?""Are you sure I have nothing you want? Don't forget that I'm close with a senior in the Medicine Association. You've always wanted to be introduced to him so that you can get into the association."Margot couldn't help but laugh at her words. "What kind of a joke is that? My grandmother is the vice-president of the Medicine Association, so why do I need to go through your senior to get in? Shouldn't I go to my grandma? Besides, my brother is a member there as well, so why would I seek help from an outsider?""That's a lie," Blake shouted. "I know that you and your father have been researching illegal medicine, so your brother and your grandmother will never let someone like you into the association. But the person you like is a member of the association, so you've always wanted to get
