"Alright, stop crying. I’m fine. Mr. Nelson came down and rescued meter!"

E naturally wouldn’t broadcastst night’s events. Eric just smiled lightly, "Come on, my dear, you must be starving. Let’s catch up over breakfast."

He grabbed her hand and walked briskly towards Charles. Chloe stood there, Eric’s words echoing in her mind—my dear?

Huh, why did those words sound so awkward?

E sat across from Charles, her eyes full of concern. "Charles, I’m sorry. You got hurt because of me..."

Charles had a thick bandage wrapped around his forehead, a swollen face, and several bruises on his hands, which made E’s heart ache.

This kind and gentle man shouldn’t have been dragged into this.

"It’s okay, I’m still alive, aren’t I? E, are you really alright?" Charles’s probing gazended on Eric.

Eric gave a cheeky smile, "Rx, she’s fine. Babe, let me order you a nourishing soup to replenish your strength fromst night."

E’s face flushed again. Wasn’t he implying their intimacyst night?

Charles looked at E in shock, the hurt in his eyes fleeting.

Chloe nced at E and then at Eric. "E..." She blushed, too embarrassed to ask.

"No, no, let’s just have breakfast. I’m starving!" E, extremely flustered, quickly grabbed the untouched burger Chloe had ordered and took a big bite.

Her flushed and panicked expression made Charles understand a bit more. Since he and the doctor were locked in a roomst night, E couldn’t have neutralized the drug on her own, unless...

Thinking of this, Charles’s heart ached deeply. His face turned pale as he slowly nibbled on his Korean egg roll.

Chloe looked at E’s blushing face and couldn’t help but stick out her tongue.

Looks like this girl has really be Mr. Nelson’s woman.

The waiter brought the nourishing ginseng soup Eric ordered. He personally ced it in front of E. "Here, be good and drink this."

His tone was full of affection, making Chloe a little jealous. "E, Mr. Nelson is so good to you!"

She whispered to E.

E awkwardly looked at the soup. "I... I don’t want it. It’s hot, and I might get overheated."

Eric’s face darkened slightly. "Babe, are you disobeying me?"

Sweating profusely, E couldn’t stand his sweet talk and reluctantly picked up the bowl and drank the soup.

Seeing this, Charles felt heartbroken again. Thinking back tost night, he realized he had a chance to protect E butcked the ability and caution to prevent idents! Yet Eric arrived on time, keeping her safe!

Charles understood he couldn’t protect E, nor win her heart.

With Eric’s brilliance and attentiveness, how could E not like him?

At this moment, Mason walked over, his face calm. "Mr. Nelson, good morning."

Eric nced at him coldly. "Mason, you better stay away!"

Seeing what happened when he kicked open the door, even a fool could guess Mason’s intentions!

Mason’s face darkened slightly, but he remainedposed. "Mr. Nelson,st night was a misunderstanding. I hope we can still cooperate. I’m d Ms. Davis is safe. I hope you’ll be more careful in the future."

With that, he turned and left.

Eric snorted, picking up a piece of sandwich cake. "Come on, open up, eat it!"

E looked up to see his charming, devilishly handsome face, softened by a tender smile. The look of affection and gentleness in his eyes made the surrounding socialites anddies green with envy.

So many women would do anything to get into Eric’s bed. They knew that although there were rumors about him with them, he had never actually touched any of them.

But E was the lucky one, the first woman Eric publicly dined with and the first to be fed by Mr. Nelson himself!

Not far away, Avery watched with a face that alternated between red and white, her expression shifting from cold to sinister, to angry.

"Sis, that tramp... didn’t she lose her virginity? Why is Mr. Nelson still so good to her? Could it have failed?" Emma asked, puzzled and indignant, watching Eric’s tender demeanor towards E.

"Impossible! I called William. He said he seeded! He had four bodyguardsst night!" Avery replied, frowning. She, Emma, and Hannah hadn’t gone to the scene to avoid suspicion. Later, she called William, who told her he had seeded.

What they didn’t know was that William had been threatened by Eric.

"Then why is Mr. Nelson still so gentle with her? Does he really ept someone who’s been tainted?" Hannah asked unwillingly, her eyes filled with intense jealousy.

"I don’t know. Maybe something went wrong. I’ll go find William!" Avery frowned, confused. Her n had been perfect, and Eric had shown up only after William had supposedly seeded.

This information had alle from William.

Skipping breakfast, Avery quickly found her informants to keep an eye on William.

After breakfast, Eric put his arm around E’s slender waist and, without hesitation, led her upstairs to the fourth floor.

Charles sat sadly in his seat, knowing he had lost his chance.

"Charles, take care of yourself and make sure to get checked out at the hospital, okay?" E suddenly remembered something as she reached the stairs, looking back at Charles with concern.

Charles smiled and nodded. "Go have fun. Chloe and I will head back now and stop by the hospital."

Only then did E feel relieved. After saying goodbye to Chloe, she followed Eric to the fourth floor.

"Come on, snap out of it. They’re gone now... Ah, you and E were just not meant to be," Chloe said regretfully, pulling Charles to leave.

The fourth floor’s decor was entirely different from the floors below.

While the lower floors were romantic, the fourth floor was all about opulence. The luxurious gold wallpaper with intricate patterns and the grand, resplendent atmosphere made E feel like she had stepped into an ancient pce.

"Bring him to my lounge," Eric ordered his men.

They quicklyplied, and Eric led E into one of the VIP lounges.

E sat on the soft ck leather sofa, wincing from the soreness between her legs, carefully leaning against the backrest.

It wasn’t long before William was brought in. The moment he saw Eric and E together, he was scared out of his wits!

Eric’s devilishly handsome face wore a cold smile. "His hand hit you? Tsk, tsk, I really want to cut it off!"
