Tatiana drew a deep breath. Moments later, she frowned when she recalled a waiter who had bumped into her. âWhen I left the hall, I bumped into a waiter. That was when I felt a sting on my arm like a bee sting. It hurts a little, but only for a few seconds.â
Davidâs secretary was taken aback. He had no idea about the waiter at all. Only David appeared stunned, and his eyes darted in guilt..
Alyssaâs chest tightened. She quickly checked Tatianaâs slender arm and noticed a tiny, reddened puncture on her pale skin.
âDamn it!â she hissed, feeling sorry for Tatiana. âWhat did you inject into Tatiana, you bastard?â
âI told you, it was she who seduced me in the first place. I have nothing to do with this!â David insisted, even though his heart was pumping wildly.
In the beginning, he was confident that Alyssa and everyone else no evidence against her. However, after the androgynous doctor showed up and dissected the facts, they seemed one step closer t the truth.
Rage burned in Jasperâs eyes. He grabbed David by the hair and lifted him, making David hiss in pain.
He warned, âIf you injected something foul into my sister, I will do the same to you.â
Frowning, Julien performed a checkup on Tatiana and examined her eyes. Soon, he sighed in relief. âIt doesnât seem serious. She has a high heart rate and warm body temperature, both signs of anesthetics overdose.
âWhen I was in Mosgravia, I learned that there was a new form of anesthetics with stronger effects that could be injected into the body.
checkup regardless.
âThank you, Dr. Lovelace,â Sean thanked him between sobs.
âDonât mention it. Tatiana is Jonahâs sister. Of course, Iâll have to do my best to help her.â Then, Julien cast an affectionate and suggestive glance at Jonah, remarking, âWho knows? We might be family one day.â
Alyssa and the others were thinking hard about how best to punish. David, and they were oblivious to Julienâs flirting. Jonah stared at hist feet and cleared his throat embarrassedly.
Julien grinned happily and said, âNow, all we need is to perform a blood test on Tatiana. Weâll know if someone has forced themselves on her. Someoneâs wrongdoing is going to be revealed soon.â
âWhat do I have to do with Tatiana getting an aphrodisiac injection?â thundered David. âYouâre slandering me! Alyssa, I bet youâre framing me because you hate seeing your sister in an arranged marria ith the Schmidts. Youâre trying to get back at us! What an evil bi are.â
âHm? When did I specify that Tatiana received a shot of aphrodisia Julien chuckled, feeling a little sympathetic toward the dumb and e David. âI mentioned the side effects of anesthetics overdose, but have never once talked about aphrodisiacs. Besides, I never claimed that someone had made an injection. How are you so sure about all the details?â
âYou-â David nearly fainted from the anger.
Suddenly, they were interrupted by a phone call to Jasper.
âLandon, howâs everything?â
âJasper, youâre amazingly right!â Landon yelped in excitement. âI CAILO LO LIM castle. My men found a suspicious waiter who attempted an escape, and we looked into his background. Guess what? Heâs a Schmidt bodyguard disguised as a waiter!â
The secretary stared agape at David. He couldnât believe that David had something up his sleeve. He knew nothing about it, even as Davidâs right-hand man. The Schmidts were indeed sly like they were.
rumored to be.
Jasper issued a casual threat, âSorry for the trouble, Landon. Please get the man under arrest and send him to the police after the event.â
âNo problem! But Jasper, I think you should keep him as your personal punching bag instead of handing him over to the police. Your and Lyse can practice boxing when youâre free. Isnât that useful?â
Landon chuckled at the wretched idea.
