That woman crossed the line, so she'd better be prepared for my vengeance.
Silas had his gaze down when he replied, “The culprit is Ms. Graham.”
“What?” blurted Shane in surprise. He turned to Silas and asked again, “Did you just say that the person who
drugged me is Jacqueline Graham?”
“Yes,” answered Silas while nodding.
Shane hesitated before informing, “She is not the culprit. Someone else is. Jacqueline was the one who showed up
and chased that woman away. If she hadn't...”
“That is not what happened at all. Ms. Graham is the actual mastermind behind the incident. That woman is just a
scapegoat Ms. Graham hired,” interrupted Silas.
Shane's pupils constricted, and his expression turned downright murderous when he demanded, “Did you just say
scapegoat?”
“Yes,” answered Silas while pouring Shane a glass of water. He then added, “This is what happened. Ms. Graham is
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe one who planned everything and drugged you. She had that woman pretend to be the culprit and take you to
the lounge. After that...”
“Jacqueline showed up and pretended to chase the woman away. Then, she took me to the lounge herself,” said
Shane to finish Silas' sentence.
Silas handed the glass of water to Shane before adding, “That's right. She did that so that you wouldn't suspect her
of drugging you. You'd even thank her for helping you out. After bringing you to the room, she used a voice-altering
device to pretend to be Madam. She wanted to seduce you and trick you into having sex with her.”
After that, Jacqueline would say that she rescued you, but you raped her upon thinking that she was Madam.
You would then be accused of being a rapist and would be asked to marry Jacqueline.
Silas never said those last two sentences, but Shane guessed it himself.
The aura surrounding Shane suddenly turned cold, and his eyes glowed with murderous intent.
“What else?” demanded Shane in an icy tone.
He didn't think that things would be that simple.
Silas hurriedly reported, “Ms. Graham did all that in an attempt to marry into your family. She even got the media
involved and planned on letting them barge into the room. She wanted the news of the two of you in bed to be
exposed. That way, you would not be able to deny anything and must marry her.”
Fear was still running in Silas' veins when he said those words.
He and Joyce had just helped Shane into the car and were ready to take him to the hospital when they saw the
paparazzi rushing into the hotel. They were muttering something about the CEO of Thompson Group cheating on
his wife.
Instantly, Joyce and Silas knew that Jacqueline was the one who had asked the paparazzi over.
Silas was glad that he had taken Shane out of there before the paparazzi did anything. If they were just a minute
later, the rumor about Shane sleeping with Jacqueline would've spread like wildfire on the internet. “Go on,”
instructed Shane with a grim expression.
Silas took a deep breath before he continued, “That is not all Jacqueline did. She also took a naked photo of you two
in bed together and sent it to Madam. She got so angry after she saw the picture that her abdomen hurt.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShane's face fell as he asked, “How is she now?”
Silas quickly held Shane down and gestured for the latter to calm down before he said, “Don't worry, Mr. Shane.
She is fine now, and she believed that you didn't betray her.”
“S-She said that?” blurted Shane in disbelief.
His reaction was understandable. After all, the photo made it pretty difficult for anyone to believe that he had
remained loyal.
Silas nodded affirmatively and replied, “It's true. Madam said that the two of you promised to trust each other when
you got back together. That was why she knew that you wouldn't do anything to hurt her.”
Upon hearing those words, Shane's gaze softened, but that look dissipated quickly. He clenched his fist, and in a
raspy voice, he asked, “D-Did I do anything to hurt her?”
Shane was drugged, after all, so he didn't know if he had done anything out of line.
Silas shook his head and replied, “Don't worry, Mr. Shane, you didn't. Jacqueline gave you a high dosage of the
drug, and it is likely that you fell asleep as soon as you got into the room. There was no way to get an erection after
you fell asleep. Hence, you couldn't have slept with her. Ms. Rivers even examined Jacqueline's body to confirm
that.”
