“Caught me?” Sheila couldn’t recall what she was doing at such a place in her drunken state. She paused before pointing at Nicole. “She’s a woman. It’s fine since we’re both women.”
Davin stared at her as she pointed at Nicole and slapped her hand. “That’s our sister-in-law. Don’t point fingers.”
Sheila gave it some thought and responded, “You’re right… No, no. I came here to drink with Nicole, but what are you doing here? Looking for women?”
“No, I’m looking for a group of men.”
The look in Sheila’s eyes suddenly changed. “Y-You’re interested in men? Y-You…”
“No, I found out that the board members who are constantly stirring trouble for me at work are here. So I’m here to take some pictures of them.”
“Take… pictures?”
“Yes, I plan to photoshop these pictures and post them on social media to destroy their reputation. I will then have an excuse to fire them without affecting the company’s interests. I will make them leave so that they won’t be able to push me around anymore. Sheep, don’t you think I’m clever?”
Sheila looked at him with disdain. “It’s a despicable move. Looks like you’re really not suited to manage the company.”
“Wow, I really think you’re drunk now, with you being so brutally honest and all.”
“I’m not drunk. I can still drink…”
“That’s enough. I’ll send the both of you home.”
Davin had wanted to call a cab for the two women, but he felt uneasy about it. So, he decided to send Nicole to Imperial Garden before sending Sheila back to the Muirs.
When he reached Imperial Garden, Davin got the butler to arrange for a few maids to help Nicole head into the house. He then went back to his car to take care of Sheila.
Nicole was walking unsteadily, but she was very adamant as she muttered, “I’m not drunk. I don’t need help. I didn’t drink that much…”
Yoda, who was pruning potted plants in the living room, frowned in disapproval when he saw her coming home drunk.
She had excused herself in the phone call she made three hours ago to the kids, saying she wanted to let off some steam. He never thought she meant that she would be partying.
I wonder who she went out with? How dare she get so drunk?
The maids helped her into her room. They straightened the sheets, helped her to the bed, removed her shoes, and tucked her in.
Nicole suddenly muttered Evan’s name as she lay on the bed in her drunken state.
“Evan, Evan…”
She quietened down after calling out for Evan twice.
The maids thought she had fallen asleep, so they exchanged pointed looks and tiptoed out of the room.
“I saw Mrs. Seet cry when she called out for Mr. Seet just now.”
“Poor thing, she’s so young but…”
“Let’s stop talking about it. The butler will scold us if he hears such gossip.”
Yoda’s eyes darkened as he watched the two maids leave.
He headed into Nicole’s room and closed the door.
Nicole was fast asleep when she felt someone caress her cheeks gently.
Coarse fingers gently made their way down from her face to her chin then to her neck. It felt so… real.
She opened her eyes and saw a figure standing in front of her bed.
“Who are you?”
She wanted to take a closer look, but the tears in her eyes blurred her vision.
“Who are you thinking of?”
His deep and mellow voice rang in her ear. It sounded oh-so-familiar. It was Evan’s voice.
Nicole suddenly smiled and replied, “I’m thinking about you.”
“Really?”
She nodded.
She grew aroused as his large hands caressed every part of her body. His imposing manner was something unique only to him.
It’s him.
It really is him.
She gasped and moaned in ecstasy throughout the night as he brought her waves and waves of pleasure.
The next day.
It was already noon when Nicole opened her eyes.
She couldn’t help but hit herself in the head as she suffered from a headache. It was the result of a hangover.
“I really shouldn’t drink so much next time!”
She suddenly felt like something was off as she did some stretching. Her body was aching all over as if she had been through torture.
