Chapter 37
Henry glared at David. Then, he ruffled Snow’s hair and reassured her. “Don’t overthink it. He’s always been a little aloof. You’ll understand him better as you get to know him.”
After he left the private room, Neil checked his phone. There were no missed calls or messages.
In the past, Silvia would prepare hangover cures whenever he went out drinking or socializing. She would also remind him to limit his alcohol intake. However, she stopped doing all that and never even inquired if he stayed out all night.
Bitterness flashed in his eyes as he kept the phone in his pocket. He was about to leave when he spotted someone holding a silver phone. His expression immediately turned cold.
He had that phone custom–made for Silvia’s birthday last year. There was only one like it in the whole of Ryoln City!
He stopped the person and sternly asked, “Where did you get that phone?!”
Chris did not anticipate running into Silvia at Grand Opulence. He frowned when he saw the unnatural flush on her cheeks.
She had been drugged!
He quickly brought her to his room and called his agent.
“Get a female doctor here now!”
He remained concerned after he hung up, so he opened the bedroom door.
What he saw left him frozen and incredibly tense.
The sheets on the large bed were all over the place due to Silvia’s struggles.
Her face was bright red, her brows were furrowed, and her usually bright eyes were slightly open. They were unfocused but undeniably seductive. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Her collar had loosened due to her struggles, and it revealed a fair amount of skin in her chest area. However, she did not notice it and continued to tug at her neckline.
“It’s so hot…”
Chris clenched his fists and averted his gaze. “Sil, please bear with it a bit longer. The doctor will be
here soon.”
He dared not look at Silvia again. Once he made sure that there was nothing she could use to harm herself in the room,
he left.
Chris never felt time pass so slowly.
He had been waiting for over ten minutes, and the doctor still had not arrived. Growing anxious, he got up to check on Silvia.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the door before it was kicked open. A tall figure with a cold aura
walked in.
The moment Neil saw Chris, he glared at him. “Where’s Silvia?!”
Chris frowned and coldly said, “Mr. Remus, this is my room. Please get out!”
Neil’s gaze darted to the door behind Chris. He ignored Chris and headed to the bedroom.
Chris attempted to stop him, but Neil’s accompanying b*dyguards prevented his interference.
Neil opened the bedroom door, and his eyes widened in shock.
Right then, he slammed the door shut. When he came out, Silvia was tightly covered.
He looked at Chris sinisterly as he walked past him. “If I find that you’re connected to this incident in any way, I’ll make you pay!”
Neil took Silvia directly to the top floor. On the way, she continued to struggle, but he paid her no
attention.
He thought about what could have transpired had he not stumbled upon her phone, and an uncontrollable anger swelled within him.
After they reached the presidential suite on the top floor, Neil tossed Silvia onto the bed.
The pain briefly brought her back to her senses, but she soon fell into a more uncomfortable state. She felt as if millions of needles were piercing her b*dy.
“It’s so hot… Help me…”
The discomfort drove her to tug at her clothes, and it gave her skin an alluring pink hue that was mpossible to ignore.
Neil walked up to her and held her restless hands. As he stared into her eyes, he asked, “Silvia, how do you want me to help you?”
