Chapter 88

Nell pulled a menacing look.

She was boiling, but at the same time, baffled. What gave this man the courage to say such a thing to her!

“Jason Morton, you think too highly of yourself. For a man like you, why would you count on me to remain chaste for the rest of my life after we’ve split up? You must be so full of yourself to be this delusional!”

The biting remarks did get on Jason’s nerves.

“Nell Jennings, don’t tune out on my good intentions! Do you know what kind of person Gideon Leith is? Do you really understand him? The girl who is able to form a marriage union with the Leiths surely isn’t an average joe. Have you thought about what would happen to you if his fiancée ever found out?”

Nell faintly smiled.

“It’s none of your business whether or not I know him. I believe that even if we hadn’t known each other for long, I know him enough to at least be clear on his character. His upright and honorable nature isn’t something a disloyal rake could amount to.

“Also, I’m not afraid if his legal wife comes knocking on my door. Don’t ask me the reason why because I won’t tell you. I have the confidence so please remove that hypocritical concern of yours! You may not consider yourself pretentious but I just want to puke getting an earful from you.

“We are all adults. It’s fine if one cheats or loses interest, just as long as he doesn’t cheat while still having his ex-girlfriend in mind under the facade of affection. Celine Jennings might not feel sick to the stomach about it but I’m totally disgusted!”

With that, Nell took off without a care to their reaction.

Jason stood there with rage painting his face in shades of blue.

Hayley gawped at Nell’s receding figure as though she was some sort alien. It took a while before Hayley was able to snap back to reality.

“Brother, did she just lash out at you? When-when did she become like this? Wasn’t she always compliant towards you?”

Jason hit the roof the moment she brought it up.

Only God knew why the usually-docile Nell Jennings ended up like this!

Every word Nell spoke now was simply snide comments that were so cut-throat, it put them on the spot!

Could it be that the tender affections towards him before were only pretend?

As expected, he finally saw that woman’s true colors. Compared to Celine’s mild disposition, Nell’s temper was like that of a rock in a cesspit, nasty and icky. He was just fed up.

Tensing his facial muscles without another word, Jason turned and headed straight into the private room.

Hayley was infuriated by her brother’s refusal to answer.

“Sister Tara, do you think that my brother still has feelings for that woman? He showed no response despite her berating him!”

Tara’s face stiffened.

A brief moment later, she forced a smile. “Mr. Morton and Ms. Jennings were together for a long time. It’s not out of the ordinary if there’s still feelings there.”

Hayley widened her eyes in shock.

“Sister Tara, you think so too? Don’t tell me they’re bound to kiss and make up?”

There was a glint of desolate in Tara’s eyes.

Shortly, she let out a forceful smile.

“No.”

“Why?”

“Because... It’s best you ask Celine Jennings! She’d have a better idea.”

Reluctant to continue the conversation, Tara turned to walk into the private room.

With the both of them withholding the truth from her, Hayley stomped her foot out of anger.

Just then, an attendant approached from the opposite side.

Hayley snorted but the emergence of the attendant struck her with a thought.

Curling her lips into a wicked smile, Hayley advanced forward to stop the attendant from entering the opposite private room.

“You! Come with me.”

...

Nell had just relieved herself when she realized her phone in her purse had recorded two missed calls.

She scrolled to check. It was Gideon Leith. She must have missed the calls because her phone was on silent.

Hence, she quickly tapped on the number to return the call.

She heard a ringing tune from the other end and by the third beep, the line was finally connected.

“Hello, you’re back!”

Gideon’s husky and sexy voice came through. “Yes, I’m reaching downtown. Are you done?”

“Not yet. Are you tired? If you are, why don’t you head home first and rest? I’ll take a cab later.”

There was silence on the other end.

Soon, the man’s detached voice was heard. “No. Where are you? I’ll come pick you up.”

“Oh, okay! I’ll send you the address.”

“Alright.”

After hanging up, Nell let out a sigh.

She lifted her wrist to take a look at her watch. With the time close to nine, the dinner party should draw to a close soon.

She washed her hands and trod out.

Back in the private room, Lucy and Eric were still hanging around. Eric was intoxicated while Lucy was pouring him tea.

“Director Freeman, pardon me but I’m back.”

Eric looked at her with a smile. “It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s getting late. Let’s have a final toast before heading home.”

With his proposal suiting Nell’s books, she raised her glass. “Sure. Come, Director Freeman. A toast to you.”

Nell downed the drink. She took it in one gulp, only to realize a weird aftertaste in her mouth.

She took a glance at Lucy and asked, “Did we have a different alcohol?”

Lucy was puzzled. “No, it’s the same Hennessy. The attendant sent it in, no one touched it before.”

“Oh, nothing. I might have had too much to drink.”

Nell thought nothing of it. It was not uncommon for her taste buds to be messed up with the alcohol going straight to her head.

Eric got up and Nell ushered him out before returning to the private room.

She glanced at the time. It would take Gideon at least an hour through the highway. Thus, she dismissed Lucy and stayed alone in the private room to wait.

The private room was huge. It was equipped with a table and a sofa for guests to rest on.

Sitting on the sofa, Nell held a glass of water and took tiny sips.

After a couple of sips, she felt a flush washing over her body. A strange yet numbing sensation rushed from her lower region to her entire body.

At first, she presumed that she was under the influence. Hence, Nell laid down on the sofa to take a rest.

However, the horizontal position allowed the scorching heat to intensify. Her head was getting dizzier...

Nell frowned.

Something was not right!

She was not a babe in the woods that had just entered society. On the contrary, the three years abroad and two years back had bestowed her with great experience in the real world.

If she still had not a clue of what was going on by now, those five years were a waste!

Nell forcefully propped herself up.

With the drug taking its effect, her body was feeble, unable to raise an ounce of strength.

As waves of desire escaped through her bodily perspiration, Nell’s face was stained with an alluring rosiness.

Spoiled by the President Chapter 87 Sick In the Head Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 1980 Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Enduring the surging impulse, she stood up and stumbled her way to the door.

Before she made it there, Nell heard voices on the other side of the door.

“She’s inside. You lot better please her tonight! You’ll receive what you deserve. Remember to take pictures once you’re done! Got it?”

“Got it!”
