“Do you truly believe your n is foolproof, David?” Jonah’s mesmerizing voice echoed.


    A loud noise apanied the rolling of arge object, closely followed by a harrowing scream.


    To David’s astonishment, the source of the sound was none other than his loyal secretary.


    David trembled, feeling his heart about to leap out of his chest.


    “Please let me go… I beg you…”


    The secretary’s face bore the marks of a beating, and he was tightly bound, his limbs hanging


    unnaturally. The tendons and hamstrings. were deliberately snapped, pointing unmistakably to Jonah’s


    characteristic method.


    The individual who trailed behind him was a capable man with captivating and seductive eyes.


    “Sigh, what will be of this household without me?” A rare look of worry appeared on Julien’s


    handsome face.


    Lovce Pharmaceuticals also received an invitation for tonight. Given their reputation for the best


    medical standards in the country, they couldn’t be excluded from such an event.


    Yet, the head of the Lovce family harbored resentment over his daughter Mandy’s role as Winston’s


    mistress, denying her the rightful title. Over the years, they avoided any gathering where the Taylors

    were present to spare themselves embarrassment.


    However, Jesselton Incorporated’s personal invitation left them no choice but to attend. Learning that


    Julien had returned from


    uroracuó, tricy avoiyn


    The sight of his lover filled Julien with joy. His thoughts centered on him the entire time they were apart.


    To his surprise, the scene was unusually “lively”. Having dered Alyssa as his sister-inw, he was


    prepared to defend their honor.


    Jonah casually nced at Julien, giving him a look as if he were irrelevant. Then, he fixed a cold stare


    on the object resembling a “ball” on the floor. “Speak! Or should I speak for you?”


    The secretary gritted his teeth. He didn’t dare say a word. He couldn’t afford to offend either side.


    Just as Jonah was about to deliver a threat, Julien intervened. “Mr. Jonah isn’t known for his even


    temper. I’m sure you’ve seen that for yourself. You mentioned wanting to exin things to him directly.


    Be aware, the consequences may differ.”


    Then, Julien redirected his gaze. “If you want to stay loyal to your boss, we will make it easy for you.


    After all, my scalpel is cleaner than Mr. Jonah’s dagger. I don’t think you will suffer as much.”


    “Okay! I will talk!”


    The secretary couldn’t handle the pressure, so he confessed. “Mr. David was upset that he couldn’t get


    Ms. Tatiana to like him. So, he asked me to get some party drugs. Ms. Tatiana would be putty in his


    hands after that. Plus, it wouldn’t leave any traces behind.”


    “Party drug? What is that?” Jasper frowned.


    “Scientifically, it’s called GHB, also known as ecstasy.”


    Julien’s expression turned serious. “Overconsumption causes loss of consciousness, extreme


    dizziness, vomiting, and aplete loss of direction. GHB takes effect quickly, reaching its peak within


    10 to 15 minutes, rendering the victim entirely vulnerable.”


    Jonah’s heart tightened upon hearing the exnation while Alyssal and Jasper exchanged uneasy


    nces.


    “You imbecile! How dare you fucking nder me! I will kill you!” David seethed, ring at his secretary.


    If not for Jasper restraining him, he would have lunged at the betrayer.


    “Taty, did you experience any of that after consuming the drug they gave you?” Sean nervously


    grasped Tatiana’s shoulder, concerned about potential harm.


    Tatiana’s head throbbed, her tear-filled eyes vacant. “I didn’t. I only drank a cup of juice with Alyssa. I-I


    never touched anything else.”


    Davidughed maniacally, pounding the floor with his fists. “Do you have any proof? I bet you don’t. I


    told you, Tatiana seduced me! She’s


    the one at fault!”
