Chapter 51

“Most perfumes are grouped by scent, but we want to present something different. We plan to group them based on how a scent matches the customer’s profession. Now, I want to ask for your opinion, whether the perfume we present can be well received or not.”

Ben reached out to the waiter. The masked woman swiftly sprayed perfume onto a small piece of paper then handed it to Ben.

“Which group will like this perfume?” Ben gave it to Kara.

Kara took the paper and started sniffing. She had no idea that the woman was secretly smiling behind his mask.

“It’s hard to explain,” Kara frowned and blinked, “but I feel like it’s the smell in the classroom. Is this the teacher’s signature scent?”

The woman showed them the label on the bottle. Ben immediately smiled with satisfaction. “Correct. How about this?”

She handed him another paper.

“Wow….” Kara chuckled in amazement. “How can you guys make it this specific? You are truly a genius, Mister Wilson. It’s like a bank employee.”

Ben’s smile grew wider. “This is the result of years of research and surveys. Interested in continuing?”

Kara nodded enthusiastically. After sniffing the third paper, she sighed in disbelief. “This one makes me feel like I’m watching a barista in action in his cafe.”

Kara always liked something new and unique. No wonder her eyes sparkle. However, when she checked the fourth scent, her smile faded. She looked at the masked woman in confusion.

“Looks like you haven’t sprayed this one, Miss.”

The woman sprayed the paper again. However, after sniffing repeatedly, Kara’s expression was still the same.

“What is it?” Ben took the paper and sniffed it. “Why is there no aroma?

Suddenly, Kara felt dizzy. Her chest was tight and her body was hot. She looked down, trying to catch her breath. However, the strange sensation only got worse.

Noticing Kara’s unease, Ben touched her shoulder. “Kara, are you okay?”

Kara spontaneously moved her shoulders, pulling away from Ben’s touch. A feeling of horror had arisen in her heart. It’s like she was sucked into the past.

What Kara was experiencing was very similar to four and a half years. ago. Even though there was no sleepiness like before, the

premonition in her heart was exactly the same. There was something wrong with her.

“Mr. Wilson, I have to go now.”

However, Ben did not answer. The man also lowered his gaze. His hand was placed over his heart.

“This….” His gaze turned to the side. “What did you give us?”

The young woman slowly stepped back. After throwing the bottle of the odorless liquid against the wall, she ran out and locked the door.

Kara stared at the broken bottle with a blank look. She didn’t know. where the liquid had splashed, but she realized that she was being framed.

“They’re right,” Kara sighed, her eyes starting to fill with tears. Her

“No, Kara. Please don’t misunderstand. I don’t know why it’s like this

either.”

After looking at Ben in horror, Kara walked towards the door.

Unfortunately, no matter how many times she pressed the doorknob,

the door remained closed.

“Quickly tell your men to open the door!”

“This isn’t my plan, Kara. I don’t mean to trap you. Now calm down. I’ll call for help. Okay?”

Ben took his phone out of his pocket. At that time, a message came from an unknown number.

‘Have fun, Ben. Enjoy your night! You can leave after your mission is

complete.’

“Damn!”

Ben gripped his phone then walked over to Kara. The girl who was standing near the door shifted to the other side. “Do not come close!”

Clenching his jaw, Ben pointed at the message he had received. “This is Rowan Harper’s doing. He asked me to get rid of you from Frank yesterday, but I refused. I didn’t know he would use such dirty

methods.”

“If you really have no bad intentions towards me, quickly open this door!”

A single tear fell down Kara’s cheek. She realized that the drug had spread completely in every cell in her body. The stronger its effect was, the greater her worry grew.

While chuckling in annoyance, Ben contacted his assistant. Strangely, the number was not active. He then called the bar manager. However,

“Damn,” he grumbled as he closed his eyes. He could feel the drug starting to take over his body.

Realizing that she could not rely on Ben, Kara called Jeremy. She

knew the man was following her and might be standing by outside. However, as she found that his number was inactive, her whole body trembled.

“Kara, how about we just do it?” Ben asked in a low voice. His

expression had changed. His gaze was the same as the men who had made Kara uncomfortable.

“You said you didn’t mean me any harm?” Kara slowly shifted towards the shelf. If there were many bottles displayed there, she would have made them into weapons.

“You don’t need to worry. I will take responsibility. I can propose to you after this, and then we get married. I don’t mind being a father to your children.”

Ben started to approach. Kara grabbed a porcelain statue and lifted it.

“Do not come close! I could blow your head off!”

Ben chuckled. His hands started to undo the buttons. “Come

Kara. I’m no less great than Frank. I’m also rich and you ca

me.”

Kara was holding up her phone. “If you take one more step, I will report you to the police.”

Seeing the emergency number there, Ben moved quickly. In an instan the phone and porcelain figurine slipped from Kara’s hands. Along with the sound of glass breaking, Kara landed on the couch.

“No….”

Kara shivered in fear. She now still had the strength to press Ben’s shoulders so they didn’t get close to her. However, she wasn’t sure she could last long.

“Help! help…!”

“It’s no use screaming, Kara. The music outside is much louder. Besides, Rowan’s men must be standing guard outside. No one can break their defense.”

Kara’s tears grew heavier. Four and a half years ago, she wasn’t fully aware. She didn’t remember all the details of what Frank did to her.

But now, she would most likely remember every move and word Ben made. The horror that overwhelmed her was too great.

“Come to your senses, Mr. Wilson. What you’re doing is wrong!” Kara screamed while trying to kick. Unfortunately, her dress was pinned by Ben’s knee. Her movements were very limited.

“Come on, Kara…. Stop resisting. Let the drug flowing in our blood react perfectly. I won’t be rude, and don’t forget that I will be responsible.”

Kara continued to rebel. She could feel her blood rushing and heart beating wildly. However, she didn’t want to lose.

‘Oh God, please save me. I don’t want to embarrass my childre
