you all standing there for? Kneel down, damn it.
At that moment, there was the sound of sirens at the door. Someone had already called
the police. The fully armed police rushed in.
But when they saw the scene in front of them, they were slightly stunned. The leader
was a middle-aged police officer. He stared at the group of kneeling thugs with his eyes
wide open.
And then his gaze fell on Pierce, who was in a wheelchair. Pierce, are you filming a
movie? Pierce smiled bitterly and said, these idiots don't know how to behave
themselves. They beat some people up here.
So I asked them to kneel and apologize. The sergeant sneered and said, you're
suspected of causing trouble. You're being arrested.
Take them all away. The officers surged forward. The gangsters were detained, cuffed,
and sent to the police cars one by one.
The sergeant walked over to Grant and said, Mr. Hartley, what's going on here? Grant
handed over a bag of guns and said, officer, we're law-abiding citizens who are minding
our own business. The sergeant frowned and glanced at the group in front of him. They
were all in ordinary clothes, and over half of them were women.
They didn't really look like bad people. But his duty was still there. He said in a deep
voice, no matter what, all of you should come with me to the station to clear this up.
Grant said sensibly, sergeant, we'll all go with the owner of the diner, but let the women
and the young men go home. They've been through a shock. The sergeant nodded and
glanced at Keith.
He shouted, withdraw. Everyone let out a sigh of relief. Grant looked at Keith and said,
sir, I'll have to treat you to a meal another time.
As he was about to leave, Keith patted his shoulder and said with a smile, thank you for
your support. I'll take you out next time. When Grant heard that, he couldn't help but
suck in a cold breath.
At the same time, he was secretly extremely excited. He knew that he was gaining
significance with this master. He was so excited that he wanted to say something.
But when he saw Keith's smiling eyes, he couldn't say a word. He nodded vigorously and
said to his three friends, let's go. Okay.
These three musclemen followed him out excitedly. You've fulfilled Grant's wish to meet
again. Wish value plus one.
Current progress, 12 of 10. Keith smiled faintly. After they left, he looked at Mia, who
was beside him.
When he saw her, he couldn't help but be shocked. This woman was definitely drugged.
Because the situation had been so tense up until now, the effect of the medicine had
been suppressed by her nervous mood.
Now that she'd relaxed, the effects of the medicine had kicked in. Now, her entire body
was trembling slightly. There was a layer of sweat on her forehead, and her face was as
red as an apple.
Mia saw that the man beside her was staring at her, and her face became even redder.
She was already in a trance, and her entire body went limp. Keith reacted quickly and
grabbed her around the waist.
Zara exclaimed, Mia, what happened to you? Mia was boiling hot in Keith's hands. He
frowned and said, she's been drugged with a powerful aphrodisiac. The effect is very
strong.
She must be treated immediately. Treated? Zara obviously thought of something else.
Her face also turned red.
She looked at Keith and said, do you want to take her to the hospital? Keith shook his
head and said, the medicinal effect has already seeped into the blood. I'm afraid it's too
late to send her to the hospital. After hesitating for a moment, Keith carried Mia out of
the restaurant.
He took the key for the Jaguar from her purse, threw her into the front passenger seat
and started the car. Mia's classmates ran out of the diner. Zara shouted, where are you
taking her? Keith looked back at the crowd and said seriously, to treat her illness.
Don't worry. As soon as he finished speaking, the sports car sped away, disappearing
into the night in the blink of an eye. Vehicle virtuosity activated.
With the enhancement of this skill, the speed of the sports car reached a terrifying 240
miles per hour. Normally it would take more than half an hour to drive back to the Hot
Springs Hotel, but now it only took 10 minutes. By now, Mia had completely fallen under
the drug spell.
Her whole body was boiling and her clothes were hanging off her. Her arms hooked
around Keith's neck and she rubbed her nose against his neck. Keith's face flushed red
and his heart was beating wildly.
Any man entangled by such beauty would grow agitated, but Keith was no ordinary
person. Even if his heart was racing, he wouldn't lose his mind because of lust. He pressed Mia's soft body back into her seat with one hand and drove with the other, but
he didn't expect Mia to take his hand in and gently rub her face against it.
Just hold on a little longer, Mia, Keith said. At least rubbing his hand was better than
rubbing his neck. A moment later, at the hotel, Keith carried Mia in his arms and got into
the elevator under the shocked gaze of the receptionist.
After reaching Mia's suite, he threw her onto the bed. Once on the bed, the fire in Mia's
body erupted. She threw herself into Keith's arms and muttered, It's so hot.
Hold me. Keith once again pressed her down. Without saying anything, he took off her
clothes.
It wasn't because he wanted to see her naked, but because he knew he needed to let the
heat dissipate and sweat evaporate from her skin. It was the only way to help her. But it
was still his first time seeing a woman undressed in real life.
Keith promptly had a nosebleed under such stimulation. Recovery from injury activated.
You have been healed from bleeding.
Keith had always thought this skill was a bit useless outside of fight situations. Now it
was actually coming in handy. His nosebleed stopped immediately.
He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He then used one hand to hold
Mia's struggling body down on the bed, while his other hand hit the acupuncture point on
her wrist. Mia made a small sound, and her body twisted even more violently under his
grip.
Recovery from injury activated. Keith wiped the blood away and muttered to himself,
Strange. Why aren't you sweating? After thinking for a while, a look of realization
dawned on his face.
Modern drugs were different from the old ones, so the methods of neutralizing their
effects also needed to change. He didn't know what kind of drug that scum Heston had
given her, so he could only search through the acupuncture points one by one. Keith
looked at Mia, who was still struggling, as if she was going to melt.
He touched his nose and muttered, Sorry about this. Keith tested one acupoint after
another, all over Mia's body, but he couldn't find the right one. Under the influence of the
drug, how did she endure being touched like this? Keith could only snort as she tried to
wrap her thighs around his waist, her hands unconsciously touched Keith's arms, and her
body temperature became higher and higher.
Keith frowned. He knew that if this continued, the fire inside her would keep growing and
her brain would burn. At an utter loss, he let go of Mia and took his own clothes off.
Without restraint, Mia immediately pounced on him and let out a heavy sigh. Next to her
feverish skin, Keith's body was like a block of ice. It had the effect of cooling her down.
Mia lightly twisted in his arms and made a comfortable sound. Keith wasn't trying to take
advantage of her. He was just trying to let her vent some of her emotions.
Otherwise, her brain might really be fried. Recovery from Injury Activated Keith felt the
body in his arms and shook his head hard. He'd pressed all the pressure points on Mia's
front, so he slid an arm behind her back to find the pressure points there instead.
His fingers searched over Mia's hot skin. When he found the acupoint on the back of her
waist, Mia's whole body stiffened. Suddenly, layers of sweat began to seep out of her
body.
It's done. Keith heaved a heavy sigh of relief, but it would take some time to sweat out
poison. During this period, all he could do to help was let Mia hug him.
After an unknown period of time, both Mia and Keith were covered in sweat. Even the
bedsheets were wet. Suddenly, the woman in his arms stopped moving.
Keith took her wrist and felt for her pulse. A faint smile appeared on his face. Now that
Mia's pulse was stable and her body temperature had dropped, it meant that the
terrifying drug was completely out of her system.
You've cured Mia's condition. Attribute point plus one. What a mess.
Keith lay Mia back on the bed and covered her with a blanket, then left the room. Later
that night, Mia woke up to a light drizzle outside. She looked at the ceiling, and two tears
rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
Although she'd been drugged, her memories were still intact. She clearly remembered
what had happened. Earlier, on this bed, she had thrown herself at the young man,
desperately begging him to touch her.
How could this happen? How did I become like this? Mia sobbed silently. Suddenly, she
put on her clothes and quickly walked out of the room. It was already very late at night,
and the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
Beside the fountain in the hotel garden, Mia looked up at the boundless sky and cried
silently, her tears mixed with the rain on her face. It seemed like only this downpour
could wash away her unbearable memories. There was a flash of lightning illuminating
this corner of the garden.
Mia closed her eyes, allowing the rain to hit her face. The pain, confusion,
embarrassment, and despair in her heart felt like it might suffocate her. Why not him? If
it was him, I wouldn't be in so much pain.
Keith, where are you? Why didn't you come and find me? She muttered to herself, like a
flower swaying in the wind and rain that could be torn apart at any moment. But minutes
later, an umbrella blocked the wind and rain from her. Under the dim light, a pretty
young man was calmly looking at her.
It's you. The corner of her mouth curled up into a smile of despair. You probably pity me,
right? I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I couldn't control myself earlier. Keith stared at her and smiled faintly. You just
fell ill.
It's not good to stay out in the rain. Let's go back inside. Mia looked at the young man in
front of her in a daze.
Suddenly, the emotions in her heart burst out like a flood. She threw herself into his
embrace and said in a pained voice, Why aren't you with him? Why are you so good to
me? I'm not worth it. Keith threw the umbrella to the side and hugged Mia with a smile.
Who do you want me to be? The voice was clear and familiar. Mia was suddenly stunned
and slowly raised her head to look. The rain had completely washed away the makeup
disguising the young man's face.
This smiling man. If he wasn't Keith, then who else could he be? Mia looked at Keith
blankly, her entire body trembling. Then she seemed to realize something.
She suddenly pushed him away and said, Keith, I was confused just now. I don't like you
like that. I really don't.
Her voice became softer and softer as she realized that Keith was only smiling at her.
The gentleness in his eyes seemed to melt her heart. Mia hugged her arms around
herself and retreated in the heavy rain.
She looked at Keith and said in a choked voice, I really, really. Her voice trembled even
more intensely as if something was pressing down on her chest, making her unable to
even raise the strength to speak. Keith slowly stretched out his hand and said with a
smile, I understand, but come back with me.
In the heavy rain, the smile on his face looked so gentle. His extended hand was like the
last ray of light in a bottomless abyss, illuminating her. I understand.
Come back with me. Those few short words.
