Chapter 975
"Well, shall we continue?"
Narissa swatted his hand away and struggled out of his embrace. Then, she pushed him into the
bathroom and shut the door without hesitation. "Take a shower first."
"Hey!"
Jamie slammed his fist on the door to protest but eventually gave in and took a shower.
He thought he could finally get down to business once he came out, but Narissa went straight into the
bathroom to shower.
In general, a man would take only two minutes to shower but a woman might take around two hours to
finish it.
Out of boredom, Jamie opened a bottle of wine and enjoyed it as he waited on the sofa.
At that moment, his gaze landed on his coat on the sofa.
Putting the wine glass aside, he walked over and took out the medicine Alexia gave him from his coat
pocket. Then, he put it under the light and observed the contents.
"There isn't a lot, is there? Is there even one ounce in here?" he mumbled to himself.
The little one said it helps to increase virility, didn't she? Then it must be something that enhances male
potency in the bedroomlOnlya man who lacks self-confidence needs it. As he was in his prime, Jamie
had zero doubt in his ability. Pouting, he disdained the idea of using the drug as he slipped it back into
the coat pocket.
Just when he turned around and was about to continue drinking his wine, he abruptly stopped in his
tracks. He looked back, his intense gaze fixed on the coat pocket.
He recalled that for some men, their first time wasn't always the best experience.
He had to overcome a lot of obstacles before finally beginning a relationship with Narissa. Thus, he
would never forgive himself if their first night began a disaster and ended up traumatizing both sides,
which would surely harm their relationship.
Besides, both of them were competitive. If he couldn't prove himself to her tonight, she would make him
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇta laughingstock for the rest of his life.
As a man, he could endure people mocking him on all kinds of things except this one.
As Jamie thought about it, he turned around and grabbed the medicine the second time. Opening the
bottle, he cheered himself up. "It's now or never. I'm not going to humiliate myself in this matter!"
Once he made up his mind, he threw his head back and finished off the bottle of medicine in one gulp.
Then, he threw the empty bottle into the bin. Hopping into bed, he waited for the drug to kick in.
However, in less than thirty seconds, he could already feel his eyelids getting heavy.
Fifteen minutes later, Narissa opened the bathroom door and got out. She was wearing nothing other
than a men's dress shirt at the moment.
When she didn't find Jamie in the living room, she guessed that he had gone into the bedroom.
A faint smile stretched across her face at the thought. Then, she walked in the direction of the
bedroom.
Much to her surprise, she was welcomed by a sleeping man when she approached the bed.
The sight of Jamie sleeping instantly spoiled her good mood, and she had no choice but to reluctantly
accept her fate.
It's not the time for sleeping, dummy!
Even though his performance disappointed her, Narissa still treasured every second because it was the
first time that she spent time with him in a private space as his lover.
After she got dressed, she sat by the bed and raised a hand to touch his bushy eyebrows. Then, her
hand slid down his face as she traced his facial features with her fingers.
At that moment, the realization that he was indeed a handsome man dawned on her all of a sudden.
Even though Jamie wasn't as handsome as the god-like Alexander, his looks were still exquisite.
After all these years, Narissa could only remember his dumb face that managed to get on her nerves
every time, but she let the fact that he was no doubt attractive completely slip her mind. / suppose I'm a
lucky girl.
The longer she studied his features, the fiercer she could feel her blood boiling due to an unknown
reason.
She wasn't gentle at all, but he just wouldn't wake up. What a killjoy!
The devil on her shoulder eventually won the debate. Roughly throwing off the sheets, she put one of
his arms horizontally across the bed. After that, she joined him in the bed and rested her head against
his arm.
Even so, Jamie remained sound asleep and did not respond to her behavior.
It proved that Irvin's medicine was a genuine product, which provided a guaranteed effect.
Narissa was exhausted after a long day. No longer bothering to wake him up, she simply compromised
with her sleeping spot, which was on his arm, and fell asleep.
She only learned that Jamie drank the medicine when Irvin called her the next day.
However, the newfound information didn't help with solving the issue at hand. Jamie was put into a
deep sleep by the medicine. Judging by the way he slept through his wedding night, to say he might
sleep until the end of the world was an understatement.
One week later, Gale hurried to the ICU in a private hospital in Wegas.
The attending physician was expecting him. As soon as he showed up, the doctor hastened to meet
him. "Mr. Myres, the patient didn't make it. Here is the death certificate."
Gale took the death certificate and skimmed it. His gaze darted through the window as he studied
Dominic's body with care. "Are you sure he's dead? I don't want any more problems."
"You don't have to worry about anything going wrong, Mr. Myres. Even if you don't trust my judgment,
the machine doesn't lie. Did you see the asystole on the cardiac monitor?" The doctor pointed at the
expensive medical instrument in the ward.
Gale narrowed his eyes at the statement and remained silent.
At that moment, a nurse came out of the ward with a piece of paper. "It seems like the patient left a
will."
Gale snatched the paper without hesitation. After perusing Dominic's will, he couldn't help the smile
that threatened to stretch across his face at the good news.
Dominic entrusted Gale with full control to manage the company until he found Paul.
Gale could naturally take over all assets of the Heidelberg Family with Dominic's will, and nobody
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwould be able to say anything about it.
He watched Dominic's corpse in the ward, which was covered by a white sheet, and his smile widened.
Old man, you kicked the bucket just in time!
"Mr. Myres, what about the body?" the doctor asked.
"Just follow the usual procedures."
Gale was no longer interested in making any arrangements for Dominic. Giving the doctor a few
perfunctory instructions, he left the hospital with the will.
In the afternoon, he called a board meeting and announced himself as the chairman. That night, he
transferred one-third of the Heidelberg Family's assets to his account abroad.
For a moment, he felt like he had reached the peak of life and was satisfied with his achievements.
He didn't even notice that the head of the IT Department hadn't reached out to him for a long time.
Days passed and the day that the Cuber Family would hold an engagement party finally arrived.
Gale changed into his newest custom-made suit for the occasion. He was perfectly dressed from head
to toe. He got into his Rolls- Royce and arrived at the Cuber Residence half an hour earlier.
The manor was already crammed with guests when he showed up.
The car immediately caught the guests' attention when it rolled into view.
He got out of the car and stood still to button his collar.
His arrival caused a stir among the guests. He could see some of them pointing their fingers at him
while whispering to each other. Some were discreet while others weren't hiding their gestures at all.
He was used to people staring at him out of envy, so he paid no mind to the guests around him.
He strode past the wedding arch and arrived at the front door with all eyes fixed on him.
Just as he was walking up to the doorstep, he noticed something from the corner of his eye. When he
turned to look, he was surprised to see a poster in which Narissa was embraced. However, the groom
was Jamie and not Gale.
He gritted his teeth and his eyes almost bugged out of their sockets.
It wasn't hard to guess that Jamie was the person behind this. How dare the servants make such a
careless mistake? What a pathetic bunch!
A surge of anger spread within Gale. Grabbing the poster stand, he stormed into the manor.
