Chapter 121

Light footsteps were heard coming from the outside.

Nell bobbed her head. Thinking Lea was back, she cried out, “Lea, I’m not done. Wait on the outside for me!”

With difficulty, she tried to get up for a shower.

Nevertheless, a numbing sensation creeping within her body made her go weak in the knees, almost causing her to tumble.

As color washed off her face, Nell suddenly had a clear head.

It was that familiar feeling. How could she possibly not know what was going on?

Godd*mn it!

How the hell?

She recalled that everything she ate tonight was also consumed by others. The glass of wine could not possibly be the issue.

Could it be...

Her pupils dilated at the sudden realization of a certain glass of warm water fed to her by Lea.

With a cold gleam in her eyes, the raging fury within her threatened an outburst.

These people... were really pushing their luck, thinking she could easily be taken advantage of?

For them to employ such lowly and brainless tactics every single time, they must really think she was such a pushover!

Nell bit the tip of her tongue. The bloody taste unfurling in her mouth granted her momentary consciousness.

She then made use of all four limbs to crawl out of the tub.

...

The footsteps outside drew near and the next second, the door to the bathroom was opened from the outside.

Carrying a boorish smile, Dylan pushed the door in and ecstatically looked around.

However, there was nothing in the bathroom. The steam was still curling up from the bubble bath but there was no sight of the figure that was supposed to be in there.

Surprised, he exclaimed, “Huh?”

Later, his gaze swept past a corner of the room. Underneath the curtains was a pair of slippers. There also seemed to be indistinct movements against the curtains.

Getting the hint, he chortled. Dylan excitedly rubbed his hands together and walked over.

“My dear girlie. Why are you hiding behind the curtains? Come, let me bath with you! After we’re all clean, I’ll accompany you to sleep, what do you say?”

The boorish tone and lewd words were nauseating.

Dylan quickly made it before the curtains. The thought of the gorgeous beauty standing behind here aroused a certain sensation from his core.

Thrilled, he held onto one corner of the curtains and said, “Girlie, here I come!”

The curtain was pulled in a swish.

He was dumbstruck the next minute.

There was nothing behind the curtains, only an opened window with the cold breeze blowing through.

Dylan’s face saw a change of emotions.

“F*ck! How dare she trick me!”

His first thoughts were that Sylvia had played him for a fool. He was about to turn and go get even with her when suddenly... “Wham!”

“You...!”

Dylan stared at the woman standing before him in disbelief. While holding the back of his head, Dylan collapsed.

Gazing at the man lying flat on the ground, Nell breathed a sigh of relief.

With a struggle, she dragged him behind the curtains and tied him up before changing her clothes. She then walked out of the bathroom.

The bedroom door was locked from the outside. She turned the knob and was unable to unlatch it.

It never occurred to her that Sylvia would go this far to prevent her from running away.

Nell’s beautifully arched brows furrowed.

There was no way she could escape. She gave it a thought before whipping out her phone to give Gideon a call.

On the other end, Gideon was having dinner somewhere.

Inside a luxurious private room gathered several well known younger generations of the distinguished in the capital.

Every single one of them were elites amongst elites and born leaders.

They were best bros and best friends with Gideon, growing up in the same compound.

At present, everyone was all cheer and laughter as they engaged in discussion.

Sitting on one end of the round table, Gideon did not participate in their conversation.

Alcohol consumption had painted his cheeks with a faint blush but even so, it did not affect his good looks.

In fact, the boost of alcohol instilled a rather lax and loosened presence in him. The slight recline of his body against the chair gave an illusion of an aristocrat in the legends.

A man opposite him filled Gideon’s glass and smiled. “Brother Gideon, you’re the host. We came from afar so you should drink more with us.”

The man who poured the alcohol was Lucas Wilburn, the second young master of the capital’s Wilburn family. He loved to pull everyone together and have fun. The gathering in Jincheng was his idea.

Gideon did not refuse. He smiled and downed the alcohol.

Another person came forth to refill his glass.

The only son of the capital’s Davis family, he was Elijah Davis. He was close with Gideon because his family engaged in the same business.

While pouring him a glass, Elijah squinted his eyes and smiled wickedly. “Brother Gideon, I heard from Simon that you found us a sister-in-law in Jincheng. Is it true? Why didn’t you bring her along?”

The rest were surprised.

“What? Brother Gideon’s married?”

“No way? I can’t believe it!”

“Neither can I. Brother Gideon was never interested in women. I thought Brother Gideon will never go after a woman even if pigs fly.”

“Hahahaha... You guys! You’ve fallen behind the time with the latest news! I have concrete evidence. Tsk, you can ask Brother Gideon yourself if you don’t believe me.”

With that, everyone turned their curious eyes at Gideon.

Gideon smiled. The usual indifference in his deep and dark eyes softened.

Toying with the glass in his hand, he gave a faint smile. “She’s busy today. I’ll take her out to meet you guys next time.”

“Oh, f*ck me! So it’s really true?”

“Wilburn the Second, pinch me! I need to ascertain if I’m dreaming.”

“Hiss! F*ck, gentle now! Are you trying to kill me?”

“No sh*t, the house is on fire. Holy f*ck.”

An uproar was stirred in the private room. Everyone just could not believe their eyes.

After all, Gideon was well known for his years of few worldly desires.

He was pushing thirty yet there was not a woman near him in sight.

In terms of work, he rarely came across those of the opposite sex as well.

As a precaution against certain women with ulterior motives, the role of his secretary and assistants were assumed by men.

At first, everyone thought that he distanced himself from these women because he had found the love of his life.

Many years later, they realized that it was not that he found the love of his life but rather, he just was not interested in women.

Spoiled by the President Chapter 120 Something Wrong With The Water Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 1980 Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Little by little, word started to spread in the streets that despite Young Master Leith being tall, dark, and handsome, and at the helm of power and wealth, it was a pity that he was gay.

With such an outstanding appearance gone to waste, the hearts of countless women in the country were crushed.

Nevertheless, they could all agree that Young Master Leith was a real man!

What real man would lay a finger on a girl?

Anyway, the whole laughingstock matter was circulated until today.

Combining the presence of the little devil who was conceived through a test tube, everyone was under the perception that Gideon must not like women, perhaps he even despised them. Hence, he would rather go to lengths of having a test tube baby since he did not want a woman to carry his child.

Yet now, Young Master Leith, the woman-hater, had tied the knot with a woman?
