Chapter 542 Ste Bound And Gagged


    If Nathaniel were to hear outsiders say that he needed medication, he might just wipe them all out.


    Having ascertained that Nathaniel was there, Cecilia texted Mason.


    Mason immediately replied: We are on our way.


    Though he was puzzled as to why Cecilia had suddenly changed again, he knew he had to focus on the matter at hand.


    Before long, he led a group of men over and surrounded the entire hotel. It was only after he had restrained everyone keeping watch upstairs that Cecilia went upstairs.


    Upon learning Nathaniel’s room number, the bodyguards broke the door down.


    Cecilia was the first to enter the room. She immediately spotted Nathaniel, who stepped out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel.


    Nathaniel’s brows furrowed slightly. “Who’s there?”


    Cecilia thought that he had already been intimate with Ste and had just finished showering. Her hand hanging by her sides clenched lightly.


    Not in the mood to engage in conversation with him, she stood there silently, leaving him anxious.


    Nathaniel walked straight toward the door, his gaze directed elsewhere. “Nichs?”


    Seeing his employer in such a state, Mason initially wanted to say something but dared not do so.


    Is Mr. Rainsworth dressed such because something really happened between him and Ste?


    Since Nathaniel was unharmed, he instructed the bodyguards to step out so as not to interfere with the couple’s quarrel.


    To be honest, if his girlfriend had been drugged and ended up being intimate with another man, he would undoubtedly find it hard to ept it for a while.


    Cecilia closed the door behind them.


    As she remained silent, coupled with the sound of the door mming shut, Nathaniel presumed that it was indeed Nichs.


    “Do you think that by doing all this, Cecilia would leave me? Let me tell you this–even if she were dead, I wouldn’t allow her to leave my side.”


    Stunned, Cecilia halted in her tracks.


    At that moment Nathaniel anneached as he caught a whiff of the faint et familiar cent of her his expression changed instantly. His voice also turned slightly hoarse. “Ceci.”Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Cecilia couldn’t help but feel puzzled. “How did you know it was me?”


    Upon hearing her voice, Nathaniel embraced her right away.


    “Ceci… Ceci…” he called out repeatedly.


    Hugging her supple body, the desire he had painstakingly doused with cold water within him sparked to life once again.


    Cecilia, however, was very much perturbed by his current state. “Let go of me.”


    With her there and himself under the influence of medication, there was no way Nathaniel would possibly let her go.


    Nheless, he dared not act recklessly. He merely held her tightly in his arms to quench his desire.


    “Stay still, Ceci.”


    He had evidently forgotten about Ste, whom he had tied up on the bed in the bedroom.


    When Ste heard voices from the living room, her eyes zed scarlet. Whimpering, she threw herself against the wall, creating a resonant thud.


    The instant Cecilia heard it, her expression went cold.


    “Why are you still hugging me when you already have a beauty in your bed?”


    Only then did Nathaniel remember that he still had Ste tied up. “You misunderstood, Ceci.”


    He led Cecilia to the bedroom by the hand. It was only when Cecilia reached the doorway that she saw Ste, who was bound and gagged.


    “What’s this about?”


    “She wanted to set me up. At dawn, the media and reporters would flock here and expose the scandal. I was drugged and had no other choice but to tie her up,” Nathaniel exined sinctly.


    At that, Cecilia generally understood the situation.


    “Don’t worry. Mason has already taken care of the men outside.”


    Upon hearing that, Nathaniel had Mason enter the room to drag Ste away and lock her up.


    He still had something to ask thetter and also needed her to tell Cecilia the truth.


    Mason took Ste, who was fully dressed, away, only then realizing how incredibly strong hist employer was to have held out until then.


    Cecilia also wanted to follow him out. “Come, let’s head to the hospital.”


    However, Nathaniel grabbed her hand and shut the door behind Mason.


    “I’m not going to the hospital.”
