If the matter wasn’t handled properly, the restaurant would surely go out of business.
With the situation taking a dire turn, Victor and his three daughters turned deathly pale.
It’s over! We’re done for. Our family’s going to be ruined because we spiked the food!

The restaurant manager, witnessing the chaos, understood the severity of the situation. Such an incident under his watch could jeopardize not only the restaurant’s reputation but also his career.
Clenching his teeth in frustration and anger, he barked at the employees. “Take them all to the police station immediately!”
Meanwhile, Matthew escorted Aurelia back to the car.
Noticing the flushed appearance of his passengers, the driver quickly surmised what had transpired. Concern etched on his face, he asked, “Mr. Quigley, should we go to the hospital?”
Matthew, unbuttoning the first two buttons of his shirt to alleviate some of his discomfort, issued a command with a deep, authoritative voice, “Call Dr. Glover.”
“Understood,” the driver responded, and promptly made the call.
Meanwhile, Aurelia’s condition began to deteriorate; she became somewhat delirious.
Although Matthew had consumed less of the tainted food, the drug had a notoriously potent effect on men, particularly in compromising their judgment–especially now that Aurelia was seated so close to him. her presence exacerbating the drug’s effects.
When he held her, he could not help but be acutely aware of the soft curves of her body against him.
In his arms, Aurelia whimpered, “When will we be home? I’m feeling really unwell.”
“Just hold on a little longer, Aurelia, Matthew reassured her, his voice deep and filled with restraint.
Aurelia’s eyes reddened, overwhelmed by a familiar discomfort and helplessness. The distress was too much, driving her to the brink of madness, a tumultuous storm of sanity and delirium swirling within her.
Despite the turmoil, she knew she could trust Matthew; she clung to him as if he were her only anchor in a raging sea.
However, Matthew was also in a sorry state. His eyes were bloodshot, his breathing labored, his body tense. He and Aurelia were both losing their grip on restraint, their bodies instinctively responding to each other’s presence, suggesting they could lose control together.
As the discomfort escalated, Matthew noticed Aurelia’s tears–not of physical pain, but of feeling deeply wronged. The sight clenched his heart mercilessly, his breath catching in his throat.
“Drive faster,” he instructed the driver with a hoarse voice.
“Right away, Mr. Quigley,” the driver replied and accelerated the Bugatti swiftly down the road.
Half an hour later, they arrived at Starry Sea Mansion, both visibly disheveled. It was unclear who initiated

If it weren’t for the sudden ring of the doorbell, they would have undoubtedly proceeded upstairs.

When Stanley entered and saw Aurelia and Matthew embraced together, he paused, slightly taken aback. He had dealt with similar situations before; this wasn’t the first time Matthew had been drugged.
Previously, he could only resort to cold showers or rely on intravenous drips to alleviate his condition. However, even with the medical intervention, the relief was minimal at best. He was left to simply endure. waiting out the long, agonizing hours for the drug’s effects to gradually diminish.
Given the current situation….
Why suffer that torment?
“Mr. Quigley, you two are legally married. Why not just go upstairs, draw the curtains, and let nature take its course?” Stanley suggested.
He remembered from his last visit to the mansion that Matthew was unhappily married, having tied the knot in a flash marriage that led to them sleeping in separate rooms.
It had been me time since their last encounter. As they crossed the threshold into the home, their lips were inseparably locked. They could effortlessly resolve their turmoil without uttering a single word in bed.
A palpable desire burned in Matthew’s eyes as he caught sight of Stanley, who had unfortunately chosen that moment to appear at the doorway.
“Will it affect her?” Matthew inquired, his voice resonating deeply.
-Medical intervention can only alleviate so much; ultimately, we all must endure,” Dr. Guo responded, acknowledging the grim reality of their situation.

“You can leave now.”
A subtle twitch marred Stanley’s expression; he understood he couldn’t linger, even if he wanted to.
As the door clicked shut, Matthew swiftly gathered Aurelia into his arms. His dark eyes shimmered with unrestrained longing as he posed the question, “Do you want to wait it out?”
Aurelia retained just a vestige of clarity, but it was enough to comprehend the implications of Matthew’s query. Her eyes shimmered tearfully.
Her voice was faint yet determined as she confessed, “I can’t bear it…”
They were, after all, a married couple.
Unless unforeseen circumstances arose, they were unlikely to divorce and might even start a family. Being in his embrace, she knew she was not at a disadvantage..
In her previous life, she had been subjected to such drugging multiple times, enduring great hardships…..
Matthew pressed his lips firmly against hers.
Aurelia had never witnessed such desperation in Matthew before. Indeed, the drug had the potential to sway even the most steadfast souls.

He disrobed, revealing a physique marked by broad shoulders and elongated limbs, his well–defined abdominal muscles catching the dim light. His gaze, darker than the deepest night, was fixated solely on
her.
His throat felt painfully dry.
Although this wasn’t his first encounter with being drugged, this occasion seemed particularly unbearable.
Aurelia’s heart pounded, torn between the effects of the drug and the intensity of their recent kiss. In a fluid motion, the man leaned over her–a towering figure compared to her more petite form.
In the blink of an eye, all of her garments were delicately removed. Matthew’s slender hands traced unfamiliar yet enthralling paths across her body, leading them both into a profound mutual surrender.
Suddenly, Aurelia was seized by an intense pain that doubled her over.
“Ouch!”
Sweat beaded on Matthew’s brow, his efforts to maintain composure visibly strained. Yet, he whispered soothingly into her ear, “Relax, Aurelia. Trust me.”
She lay before him, a picture of exquisite agony, her luminous eyes welling with tears, her hair slightly dampened by sweat. Her hand clung tightly to his back, her delicate features furrowed in distress yet undeniably enchanting.
Unable to resist, he kissed her once more.
Their lips met passionately, and gradually, Aurelia’s tension began to ebb..
Time and again, they embraced throughout the night.
As dawn broke, a sliver of sunlight peeked through the slightly ajar window.
When Aurelia awoke, she felt as though her body had been trampled. The pain was excruciating. As she attempted to sit up, her mind seemed to momentarily falter.
Flashes from the previous night’s fervor flickered through her memory.
It took a moment for her to fully grasp the reality of her situation, her eyes shyly averting as she took in her disheveled state.
Aurelia suddenly realized this wasn’t a dream. She wasn’t in her own room, but in Matthew’s, her body marked by the remnants of their intense passion.
The room still echoed with the echoes of their previous indulgences.
Suddenly, a masculine voice broke the silence, “I’ve taken care of your leave; sleep a little longer.”
“My… leave?”
When Aurelia opened her mouth to speak, she noticed her voice was rough and hoarse from the previous night’s cries,

A sudden realization dawned on her–it was already Monday. She glanced at the clock again, noticing it was already noon.
It’s already noon?
Matthew’s eyes fluttered open, settling softly on Aurelia. The morning light illuminated her fair skin, casting a glow that highlighted the kiss marks still visible on her back from the day before. His breathing became uncre

He nodded slightly and said with a gentle firmness, “We were up till dawn. You probably don’t have the energy to go to work today.”
