Chapter 34
Yvette added the drug to the red wine. Then, she changed into a revealing and seductive nightgown.
She came before Xavier and poured him a glass of wine. âHereâs your wine.â
Xavier observed her every move. He took the wine from her, but didnât drink it.
Instead, he said, âYou returned to Tirion from the countryside when you were ten years old. That was the first time we met.â
Yvette paused. She hadnât expected Xavier to remember their first encounter.
She didnât show any surprise and pushed the wine toward him again. Unexpectedly, Xavier pushed the
wine back.
His words brooked no argument. âYou drink first!â
Looking at the drugged wine, Yvette didnât hesitate. She took the glass and drank it. The wine went down her throat. It was bitter and spicy.
She knew that if she didnât drink it, Xavier would surely become suspicious of her.
He had been in the business world for so many years. He would definitely detect any slipâup.
Yvette
poured another glass of wine and placed it in front of him.
âYour turn, Mr. Lane.â
He took the wine and gently swirled it, but he didnât drink it. He looked at her leisurely. âThereâs no need to rush. Let us reminisce about the past first.â
It was impossible to recount over ten years of memories in a short time.
Yvette frowned. Although the air conditioning was on, her forehead was beaded with sweat.
She dug her nails into her palm to stay alert. She stared at Xavier and said softly, âWe have plenty of time to reminisce later. Itâs late now. Donât you want to do something else?â
As she spoke, she picked up the wine and handed it to Xavier. She didnât know if it would work, but she didnât want to miss this opportunity.
Xavierâs eyes darkened. For some reason, he remembered how sheâd secretly been with Claude four
years ago.
Suddenly, he grabbed her wrist and pressed closer.
âIs this how you seduced Claude too?â
Yvette froze. Xavierâs words cut through her like a knife. âDid he give up on you? Is that why you came back to look for me? What do you take me for?â
They
ie wine fell to the floor and spilled everywhere.

Xavier ruthlessly shoved Yvette away, not forgetting to mock her before leaving. âFilthy whore!â Yvette was burning up, but the tight grip of her palm kept her mind clear.
Xavierâs words echoed in her head. She smiled bitterly
Filthy? Who could be filthier than Xavier himself?
He had never loved her, yet he had forced himself on her back then. Now he was trying to act noble!
Not long after he left, the drug took effect. Yvette went to the bathroom and turned the cold water on full blast.
She stood under the cold stream and scratched herself hard. It drew blood from her arms, but it didnât calm her down.
She had been too impatient this time.
The phone rang in the living room, but she couldnât be bothered by it anymore. She kept dousing herself with water, trying to regain her composure.
Half an hour later, the mansionâs door was forcibly opened from the outside.
A man in black, coldâfaced and tall, entered the bathroom.
