Chapter 309

But Marcus merely added a pink box to the collection of gifts.

“Here’s my gift. Happy birthday. You all continue to celebrate. | have smatters to address, so I'll be departing,” he stated. While he had agreed to attend, he hadn’t committed to staying.

Marcus’ intention to leave flustered Rhea. Yet she quickly composed herself, clasping Marcus’ arm and pleading with a sorrowful gaze.

“Marcus, stay for my birthday wish. I’ve been waiting for you. | want to make the wish with you here, if only for a moment, okay?”

When Rhea seized his arm, Marcus displayed clear discomfort. Sensing his unease, Rhea promptly released him. His dislike for physical contact was well established.

Still, Marcus’ silence was akin to consent. He genuinely felt indebted to the Evans family for past wrongs.

Rhea immediately set herself to work, instructing, “Hurry, place the candles. I’m ready to make a wish.”

Analia initiated the candle placement as Rhea prepared herself in the room’s center, ready to make her wish.

Her wish was straightforward: she implored the heavens for Millie’s swift exit so she could have Marcus to herself forever. Opening her eyes, Rhea announced gleefully, “I've made my wish. Now, it’s tto blow out the candles.”

After extinguishing the candles, Rhea snatched two wine glasses and hastened to catch up with Marcus, heading for the exit. She assertively handed him the previously drugged glass.

“Marcus, wait. Let’s toast before you depart,” she proposed.

In a hurry, Rhea quickly took hold of her own glass filled with wine, tilted her head upward, and relished a drink. Marcus had no inkling whatsoever; he glanced at the crimson fluid and lifted it towards his mouth, indulging in a small sip.

He drank it. A wave of relief swept over Rhea. The drug’s potency, as explained by the seller, was so strong that one sip would suffice.

After leaving the glass on a nearby table, Marcus cast a glance at the young aristocrats and advised, “Return hearly.” Rhea complied obediently and was now behaving considerately.

“Alright, | understand. You can go attend to your affairs.” However, as soon as Marcus exited, Rhea instructed those in the private room, “Carry on enjoying yourselves; | have to step out. The bill is onfor tonight.”

Upon speaking, Rhea hastily exited the private room to find Marcus. Given that the drug had begun to work, she couldn’t risk anyone else seizing the opportunity. The seller had warned that the drug would take effect within three minutes.

As anticipated, before Marcus even exited the bar, he felt a wave of heat coursing through his body and his blood pulsing rapidly. Leaning against the wall, he clenched his fists.

He'd been drugged by Rhea! Cursing under his breath, Marcus spotted Rhea, but she quickly concealed herself.

Rhea was flirting with danger!
