Jacob’s face flashed with surprise, and he instinctively reached out to stop her

Nancy bit her lip hard, avoiding his gaze. She’d embarrassed herself in front of him again. Why did she always have to do that

As he perceived the growing detachment in her demeanor, Jacob’s eyes narrowed. A look of concern crossed his face

Sit down. We need to talk this over,he said

Even though Nancy didn’t want to, she sat down anyway

Jacob picked up a champagne glass from the table and took a sip, his eyes fixed intently on her. Nance, why did you block me?” 

As soon as he spoke, he noticed something amiss with her expression, so he asked with concern, What’s wrong?” 

Nancy’s face turned slightly red, and she frowned. Youyou’re drinking from the same glass I used” 

He realized with a start that he’d taken the wrong glass. His features tightened as he pinched the bridge of his nose

He had been so flustered by her that he didn’t even notice. The glass had her lipstick stain on it, which pretty much made it an indirect kiss

She would have been thrilled if this had happened any earlier. But with him having a girlfriend now, it wouldn’t be appropriate

Nancy glared at him, her eyes blazing with anger. She wanted to yell at him for being unfaithful

Jacob’s expression turned even more apologetic. Nance, I didn’t mean to” 

She looked down, avoiding his gaze. She knew he had a girlfriend now. She had no intention of being the other woman, no matter how much she liked him

Just as Nancy was about to get up and leave, she suddenly felt weak and dizzy

She had only drunk half a glass of champagne, but it seemed to hit her hard

What’s wrong, Nance?Jacob asked, immediately standing up to support her, his face filled with concern

I feel dizzyNancy pressed her hand to her forehead, fighting back the discomfort. I need to rest for

The business banquet was being held at the most luxurious hotel in Jubilife. The organizers had arranged for each of the executives to have a room to rest in

Thus, Jacob personally led Nancy to the room that had been reserved for him

Nance, get some rest. I’ll send you home after the banquet is over.He was about to leave, not wanting to disturb her rest. But as he took a step out, his sleeve was tightly grasped

Don’t go” 

Nancy’s consciousness was hazy, and her rationality had disappeared. Her once bright and beautiful face was flushed a deep red. The intense effects of the drug tormented her, leaving her in desperate need of solace

Jacob didn’t realize until that moment that something was amiss with her. But as he saw her vulnerable

expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly averted his gaze

“Nance, hold on. I’ll call a private doctor right away!” 

Feeling a sense of urgency, he quickly made his way to the door. But she held him in a tight embrace

I’m in painI can’t take it anymoreHelp me” 

Nancy was completely unaware of her surroundings and didn’t know what she was doing. Her instinct was to seek comfort from someone

The soft touch against his chest sent a jolt through his tall and lean physique. A wave of heat surged through his body

The desire was so intense that it made his usual selfcontrol crumble

What was happening? He couldn’t control himself
