Brandon began to wonder if he had offended E in some way. He racked his brain but couldn’te up with an answer. Awkwardly, he smiled at E and suggested, "E, how about we go over there and have some snacks?"
E cast a contemptuous nce at Brandon and shook her head indifferently. "No, thank you. I don’t like those things."
Brandon’s mouth twitched. Charles also noticed E’s unusually cold demeanor tonight and gave Brandon a scrutinizing look.
Just then, Lily approached them, shyly addressing Charles, "Charles, I’ve heard your name since I was little..."
Charles smiled faintly, "It’s not convenient to talk here. How about we go to the gazebo over there?"
Outside Lily’s family’s grand hall, there was a small gazebo lit by a soft yellowmp.
"Sure, I’d love to chat with you!" Lily’s heart raced, thrilled that Charles wanted to talk to her alone.
As Charles and Lily left, Ethan, who had been conversing with Chloe on the balcony, suddenly pushed open the ss door and strode upstairs, his face flushed as if something had happened.
Chloe came out and whispered in E’s ear, "It looks like Ethan has been drugged...his eyes are excited, you have to be careful."
E’s lips curled into a cold smile, and she nodded slightly.
A few minutester, Lily returned, chuckling as she approached E. "E, I heard you love collecting paintings. I have some famous ones upstairs. Come and take a look; even my dad wouldn’t sell them!"
Acting like she was very familiar with E, Lily pulled her up and started leading her upstairs, not giving E any chance to refuse.
E didn’t shake off Lily’s hand. Chloe followed, calling, "E..."
"Wait for me here. Lily says she has some paintings to show me, so I’ll just go take a look," E said with a light smile, though she secretly sneered. Lily’s family was ordinary; there couldn’t be any famous paintings there. Hannah and Lily’s excuse was too clumsy—anyone sharp could tell it was just a pretext!
"Where does your dad keep his collection?" E asked as they reached the top of the stairs, ncing at the rooms lining the corridor.
Ethan was in one of those rooms.
Lily was about to answer when she suddenly felt dizzy, her heart pounding, and her body went weak. rmed, she found the sensation unfamiliar and strange. She hadn’t eaten anything odd, had she?
"In... the secondst room on the left! I feel unwell, you go on your own," Lily hurriedly said, her breathing rapid and her face flushed.
E quickly supported her. "Lily, what’s wrong? You look really off..."
"I’m... I’m so hot, so hot... Help me to the first... room..." Lily stammered.
A cold glint shed in E’s eyes. "Alright, let’s go."
At this moment, Lily felt as if the world was spinning around her. She couldn’t see anything clearly, panic flooding her senses. Her legs and body seemed to be drained of all strength, leaving her no choice but to rely on E for support.
E guided Lily to the second-tost room and pushed the door open. Inside was a guest room, with several abstract paintings hanging on the walls.
E had no time to inspect whether they were famous works. After helping Lily to the bed, she noticed Lily’s continuous moaning.
"So hot... so hot... Mr. Carter... oh, Mr. Carter..." Lily’s face was flushed, her moans alluring and captivating.
Lowering her voice, E said, "You rest here, I’ll get you some water."
With that, E hurriedly left the guest room, closing the door behind her.
No sooner had E left than the closet door swung open. Ethan’s eyes, filled with intense hunger, fixed on the figure on the bed. All he could think of was the urgent need to release his pent-up desires.
Seeing Lily’s shapely body, he rushed to the bed, tearing at her clothes like a starving wolf...
Ethan’s reason was obliterated by the overpowering effects of the drug. All that mattered was that she was a woman; everything else would follow...
After heading downstairs, E identally bumped into a girl carrying a tray of juice.
The girl immediately red at her, her eyes full of contempt. "E, are you blind? Didn’t you see me standing here?"
E quickly smiled apologetically, "I’m sorry, I was in a hurry and didn’t notice."
"Hmph, I’ll let it slide for your sister’s sake," the girl said arrogantly, raising her chin.
"Your clothes are all wet. Here, let me wipe that for you," E offered, pulling out her handkerchief and reaching to dab the juice off the girl’s sleeve.
"No need... Thanks," the girl sneered, but her demeanor softened instantly when she saw Charles and Brandon approaching.
"It’s no big deal, E. Don’t worry about it, I wasn’t mad," she said sweetly, casting a charming smile as Charles, Brandon, and Chloe arrived.
"What happened?" Charles asked softly.
The girl’s eyes brightened, and sheughed, "Nothing, I just identally bumped into E and got a little juice on my sleeve. It’s nothing!"
What a nauseating white lotus!
E sneered inwardly but outwardly appeared anxious. "I can’t chat now, I need to take some water upstairs. Lily isn’t feeling well and asked for some water."
Hannah, who had just walked over, caught thest part of the conversation, and her face changed dramatically.
Lily went upstairs with E, didn’t she? The one who should be upstairs now is E, not Lily!
And E drank the juice with the drug in it; by now, the effects should have kicked in. Why is there no noise at all?
A strong sense of unease surged in Hannah’s heart. She hurriedly grabbed E’s hand. "Sister, is Lily feeling unwell?"
"Yes, she is. I need to take her some water," E quickly grabbed a ss of water and rushed upstairs.
Sensing something was wrong, Hannah followed closely behind her.
Several girls who were close to Lily also wanted to go up, but Hannah stopped them, saying it would disturb Lily’s rest.
Hannah and E arrived at the second-tost room, and Hannah’s face turned even more ashen.
Lily was in this room?
E quickly pushed open the door. "Lily, I brought you some water..."
Both E and Hannah were instantly shocked by the scene before them. Clothes were strewn all over the floor, and on the bed, a man and a woman were entangled in a wild frenzy.
Lily’s gasps and moans, Ethan’s grunts, and the unmistakable sounds of their bodies colliding filled the room.
"Ahhhh!" E let out an earth-shattering scream, but the couple on the bed seemed oblivious, continuing their feverish movements.
Hannah’s eyes widened in disbelief at the sight. It wasn’t until E’s scream that she snapped back to reality and hurriedly mmed the door shut.
"What... what is happening? I was only gone for a moment, how did they end up... like this?" E looked at Hannah in shock.
