"Zaire, you lustful beast!" The sudden cry of Lotus broke the calmness of the mansion.

Lotus lay on the bed while biting her lower lip and holding her breath. She stared at the ceiling with her eyes moist with aggrieved tears. That jerk had really gone too far. She really didn't want to go anywhere anymore.

Seeing how her body hurts so much, all Lotus wanted was to lay in bed all week.

Lotus only wanted to be a salted fish; is she asking for too much?

Lotus' eyes fell on the bedside clock, and she discovered that it was almost 10:00 Clock in the morning.

That lustful person had told her that he was bringing her to Grandpa Ludovic today, yet he had tossed Lotus about until morning. How is Lotus supposed to walk?

Lotus really wanted to cry a river.

"Baby, you're up." As soon as Zaire completed his words, the door was pushed open.

    At a famous restaurant in the city. Even though it was a less bustling time in the city, half of the restaurants were filled up, yet it didn't make it appear crowded. The warm light bulb, the flowery ocean background, and the soft sound of a symphony that pervaded the restaurant gave it a warm and romantic ambiance. Havelin's table was positioned next to the balcony, giving them a beautiful view of the calm ocean. May lowered her cutlery and tucked a strand of stray hair behind her ears, giving her an adorable and lovely image that could make any man swoon. "Young master Havelin, you have been staring at my face for a while now; do I make you feel uncomfortable?" Despite May's words, her voice was tiny and soft, and her lips were puckered in a pout, making her appear more lovely. As if realizing what he had been doing, Havelin straightened his back and shook his head. He waved his hands and picked up his fork calmly. "No, Miss May seems familiar. Sorry if I made you uncomfortable.

May slowly bent in front of Havelin and cupped his face. She stroked his face calmly. "Young Master Havelin, is anything wrong? Are you okay?" She asked in a tiny and soft voice that revealed her worries for Havelin. Although Havelin badly wanted to evade May's touch, the effect of the aphrodisiac made him unable to. He only felt relief when May touched him like that. A well of disgust overwhelmed Havelin immediately, understanding something. "What did you do to me?" He fired coldly. May booked the restaurant and arrived earlier than him. It was when Havelin drank the wine that the weird changes began to occur to him. May's eyes shone, and she leaned forward indifferently. "I only tampered with your wine by adding aphrodisiac. Never mind, I'll make you feel heightened pleasure soon." She whispered sensually. Immediately, May o

The room was different from his room, which means that he didn't end up in his mansion the day before. Where was he?Havelin sat up and tried to recall what ensued, and soon it clicked. Havelin went on a date with May, who ended up drugging him with aphrodisiacs for a reason he didn't know.Havelin tried to call for Darvish to save him, but that person didn't appear until May started the car and drove out of the restaurant.Thinking like this, Havelin's lips parted in horror, and his heart skipped a beat. His hands wrapped around his body.Does that mean Havelin carelessly fell into May's scheme?Havelin's eyes narrowed, and he felt a headache creeping in. Except that May wa
