Chapter 215
Just then, a maid hurried over to Damon, âMr. Damon, Ms. Jayston suddenly fainted. I couldnât find Mr. Clark.ââ
Hearing this, Damon looked up, his voice cold. âWhere is she?â
âSheâs upstairs now. Madam Summer and the others are busy with the gues You should go and check on her,â the maid replied.
If it were any other time, Damon would have noticed something was off. Nyla had fainted, so why hadnât a doctor been called? Instead, they were asking him to check. on her.
However, having drunk the spiked glass of wine Cyrus had given him earlier, Damon felt dizzy and sluggish. He didnât immediately realize something was amiss.
By the time he noticed, he was already in Clarkâs room.
âMr. Damon, Ms. Jayston is inside,â the maid said.
Damon stopped abruptly, his eyes narrowing with suspicion. âIâll wait here for the doctor.â
Entering without knowing what was happening could lead to unforeseen consequences.
It was becoming clear to Damon that this was a trap set by Cyrus. He hadnât anticipated that his elder brother would drug him, especially at their motherâs birthday party.
It seemed Cyrus had become completely ruthless in pursuing his own goals.
The maid, frightened by Damonâs intense gaze, turned pale. âMr. Damon, Ms. Jayston has been sweating profusely. Maybe you should go in and check on her. The doctor will be here soonâ¦â
Damon sneered and grabbed her by the neck. âDaring to scheme against me in the Sumner household? Do you have a death wish?â
He tightened his grip, making the maidâs face turn ashen. She knew that admitting the truth would not only anger Damon but also bring repercussions from Cyrus.
âMrâMr. Damon, what are you saying? I donât. I donât understandâ¦â she stammered.
You donât? Then go and get Cyrus. He should understand! Damon hissed.
Feeling increasingly hot and his wind growing hazy, Damon cursed inwardly.
How much of this drug had Cyrus given him if he stayed here any longer, he might lose all rationality, and who knew what would happen next?
Thinking of this, he shoved the maid aside and tumed toward the stairs
Just as he took a few steps a sharp pain short through his neck.
Cyrusâ face was icy as he watched Damon collapse. âGet him into the room.â
Cyrus had used the latest aphrodisiac on Damon, one so potent that even the most restrained person wouldnât be able to resist. Since Nyla was someone Damon had feelings for, Cyrus was confident Damon wouldnât be able to control himself.
The service staff hurriedly carried Damon into the room and locked the door from the outside
Alright. Go back to work,â Cyrus dismissed them.
With a final glance at the locked door, Cyrus smiled in satisfaction. It was as if he could already see hundreds of millions of dollars coming his way.
Inside the roomâ¦..
As soon as Nyla heard the door lock, she opened her eyes.
Turning her head, she saw Damon lying beside her, his face flushed. She was taken
aback
She had originally assumed Cindy had sent the maid, so she had played along to see what was going on. She hadnât expected that her fatherâinâlaw was trying to put her in Damonâs bed!
This realization made her feel nauseous.
Cyrus and Clark were truly despicable!
While she was processing this, Damon woke up early due to the drug. He reached out to touch Nyla s face when he saw her. His usually cold, deep eyes were now burning with a heat that seemed to sear.
As his hot hand was about to touch Nylaâs face, she suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist.
