In just a snap, Garret was surrounded by beautiful women. An amused smile washed over his face as
he touched their delicate skin from time to time.
Kevin crossed his legs and looked at him with a playful smile.
"You are so lucky Mr. Kevin, for being surrounded by such attractive ladies." Garret expressed a desire
that almost burned through his eyes.
"If you like them that much, they could be all yours," Kevin offered.
"That's so kind of you." Upon approval, his hands moved and caressed their bodies in all directions.
"Please take good care of Mr. Garret here. Don't neglect my special guest," he instructed the ladies
and looked at the businessman. "Please excuse me for a while, I need to use the bathroom," he added
and exited the room.
He had excused himself because he felt sick inside the private room. He hated to deal with
businessmen who were too lustful but in order for his business to grow, he had to take advantage of
their weakness.
He walked straight towards the quiet bar counter. A girl timidly stood there and looked around as if she
feared the place.
She reminded him of Anne who was able to stand out among the women he met. At the thought, his
heart sank once again. He sighed before he sat on the barstool and said, "A glass of cocktail."
The attendant arrived with a drink in his hand and gave the man a courteous smile.
"Here's your drink, sir."
The mixture fruity alcohol approached his nostrils when the drink was handed to him. He was about to
drink it when an intruder interrupted him.
"Hello! Would you like to have a drink with me?" A tall and sexy woman put her soft hand on his
shoulders.
Kevin frowned at the unwelcomed gesture. "Take your hand off unless you want it gone tonight," he
warned.
The woman raised her brows at the rejection she received and whispered, "Looks like he doesn't like
women. Is he gay?"
The woman left without further ado. When he felt no presence beside him, he picked up his drink and
drank it slowly.
After he had finished his cocktail, he went inside a different private room and read some documents.
The room looked simple and much smaller than the one that Garret was in, but he didn't like to stay
there as he was disgusted by it. Many of his business partner's affairs took place in that very room.
Strangely, Kevin felt weak suddenly. He put the documents down and used his limbs to support himself.
He felt sleepy and sweat kept on running down his body. Slowly, he reached for the remote and
lowered the temperature but he continued to sweat profusely.
After a while, the door suddenly burst open and a woman came in.
He took a look and found out that it was Cherry.
"What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Kevin, I missed you so much," she said affectionately. His vision got blurry and the woman's face
became unreadable. She rushed towards the man and hugged him. The sudden physical contact made
him feel strange.
When he came to his senses, he pushed Cherry slightly and asked in a warning tone, "What did you
do?"
He realized that the reason why his body felt hot was because of an aphrodisiac. He was always very
cautious being in such place. He wondered how Cherry managed to drug him.
"Hey, I know you love me too. You are so much bothered by that bad woman, and that's why you don't
have time to spend with me, right?" Cherry cooed.
She reached for the drugged man's tie and loosened it, unaware that her actions today had touched his
principle.
"Fuck off!" He pushed her away but the woman purposely pounced on him once again.
A faint, seductive smile appeared on her face. This was the most powerful medicine she had found.
She believed that no matter how rightful Kevin thought he was, he wouldn't be able to control himself
under a drug and with a woman like that. After all, men always lost their mind when they were with an
incredibly beautiful woman in their bed.
Clearly, she had underestimated him. Soon enough, Kevin looked at her and spoke in a slightly sober
state. Women who tried to seduce him had done this before and he was already used to it that he could
sober up even if he didn't succumb to the drug.
"Since you look so horny, I will fulfill your wish."
He rang the bell and two men in black tights arrived soon after. They already knew what happened the
moment they stepped inside.
"Mr. Kevin, what can we do for you?"
Kevin sensed the fear of the woman beside him but he only sneered deep inside. People in YS Hotel
had tried this method and they always ended up being sent to the relatively large room.
"She is Mr. Garett's new playmate. Send her there."
The men quickly held the woman tightly upon his command.
"Kevin, don't do this. I don't want to go! I don't want to go!"
she begged loudly but he ignored her plea as her voice went farther.
His heart sank but he kept it on the check. He had to teach her a lesson this time.
They arrived at a place where light was dim, giving off romantic aura. But once the door was opened, a
stench of alcohol and sex quickly reached her.
"I want to go back." She struggled but she was quickly restrained by one of the men.
"No one can go against the order of Mr. Kevin." the man in black said coldly.
The woman's heart sank in despair and fear. She didn't expect that Kevin would not think twice to give
her to others.
"No, please. I don't want this, I want to go back,"
she begged in fear. It was only at that moment when she realized how Kevin's mind worked. He was a
terrible man and the only way to avoid his wrath was to be obedient.
"Who is this?"
Garret frowned at the intruders.
"Our boss said that this is his new gift for you. Please come here first. I have a few words to say to
you."
The three men walked a few meters away and whispered something to each other.
When they came back, the two men in black pushed Cherry towards Garret and walked away.
She looked at the hungry eyes that stared at her and fear clawed her heart.
"You don't have to be afraid, miss. Since you're already here, why don't you head inside and have a
drink with me?" His voice was polite yet his eyes spoke otherwise.
"Who wants to drink with you? You are disgusting!" she replied coldly.
His eyes darkened. He sneered and said, "It's not up to you. Come in,"
he commanded and pulled her inside, then he closed the door.
The temperature of the room Kevin was in was set at a minimum but the heat on his body continued.
His porcelain face was flushed and his eyes looked dreary.
He decided to leave the premises and went home because it would be dangerous to stay there longer.
It was ten o'clock at night when he arrived and he knew that Anne had already fallen asleep.
When he thought of her, he knew he couldn't hold himself back anymore. He stared at her bedroom
door but decided to leave for the bathroom instead.
Inside the bedroom, Anne stared at the ceiling. Although the room was dark, she kept her eyes open.
Her sleep was interrupted when the doorbell rang. She knew it was Kevin who had come back. She
couldn't help but worry about him. Since she knew that he would enter her room to visit her baby, she
kept her eyes open.
She waited for him until she fell asleep because he never came.
It was early in the morning when a scream resonated in the house. "Mr. Kevin!"
The nanny who came to clean sounded anxious. Anne opened her eyes upon the sound but she smiled
bitterly afterward. It was a habit of hers. Whenever Kevin was involved, she would worry for him. It was
a habit that she wanted to change.
The sunlight entered the gap of the curtains at the window and illuminated the room. She looked at her
baby who slept soundly. She placed her hand on the baby's face. His skin looked so healthy compared
to hers.
"Miss Anne, are you up?" The nanny knocked on the door.
"What's the matter?" The woman straightened her clothes and opened the door.
"Mr. Kevin has fainted."
Her heart sank upon the news but she quickly regained her composure. "Go and have a look," she said
quietly.
Kevin lay in the bathroom tub. His face was pale and he was sweating.
"What happened?" asked Anne.
"I don't know. When I came to clean the room, I noticed that the door was locked. I called if someone
was inside but no one answered. I used the spare key to open the door and that's when I found Mr.
Kevin unconscious," the nanny explained.
Anne looked at Kevin who looked like he was in pain. She touched his forehead and noticed that his
temperature was high.
"Ask Sam to come here. Help him to bed and change his clothes."
She looked at the man who had his expensive suit wet. 'Did he spent the entire night in the bathtub?'
she wondered.
"Okay," the nanny answered.
When Sam arrived, he saw that Anne was staying beside Kevin. She wiped his forehead with a cold
towel and tried to lower his temperature.
All the while, she told herself that it was a duty for her to take care of him because he was the father of
her child, and she wouldn't care for the man at all if it wasn't because of her baby. With those thoughts
in her mind, she felt comfortable.
"What happened to him?"
the newly arrived man asked as he put down his medical kit. His eyes widened when he saw how
Kevin was.
"Oh my God!" he exclaimed, "He hadn't been sick like this for so many years. What happened?" he
added in worry. It was difficult for him to calm down with how sick the man looked.
"I have no idea. It was already like this when I woke up," she answered.
After he measured his temperature, Sam opened Kevin's eyes and used his penlight to examine his
pupils. "What a mess! His temperature wasn't because of fever!"
He rolled his eyes upon the realization.
"Then what happened?" she asked anxiously.
"It looks like he was drugged yesterday," he answered. "I see you're still worried for him," he teased.
Kevin was a cautious man and was seldom fooled. It was the first time he had been in such a sorry
state.
"Drugged'? she asked in confusion.
"Aphrodisiac. It is a common drug in the business world. He probably bathed in the cold water the
entire night yesterday." Sam smiled. It was a refreshing sight to see a perfectionist like Kevin make a
fool out of himself.
"I see. Then go examine him more."
Anne gave way for him. After he was done, he prescribed a medicine to be taken for three days on an
intravenous drip.
"This medicine is relatively strong. He was in the cold water all night to stop his impulses. Don't let his
mood fluctuate too much or else, there will be side effects."
