Chapter 48 - Cecilia, I’m Sorry…

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chadwick Miller had asked one of her minions to put an extremely potent sex drug in the hangover drink, at ten times its normal dose.

If an ordinary man were to take this kind of drug, even just once, he would be weak for several days afterward.

​ 

At ten times the dose, he would die from sex exhaustion.

Chadwick wanted to make sure Clarence was stone-cold dead!

Although he and Cecilia no longer had feelings for each other, Cecilia was still his wife. Any man who dared f*ck his wife deserved death!

Clarence was a beast, tightly wrapping his arms around Cecilia, his hands clawing and tearing away her clothes haphazardly.

“Lil Bro, what are you doing? Let go of me! Have you lost your mind?!” Cecilia kept trying to push and shove Clarence away, her face completely pale.

She may have appeared to be a loose, debauched woman to some. However, in reality Cecilia was a traditional woman at her core. She would never imagine messing around with a man outside of marriage, let alone having casual affairs.

“Roar—!”

Clarence let out a low roar, his hands scratching at Cecilia’s body. It wasn’t long before her jacket was torn to shreds, revealing her skin underneath.

Slap!

Cecilia slapped Clarence’s face. “Snap out of it. It’s me, Cecilia! What the hell are you doing? Stop right now!”

The slap did nothing. Clarence was still acting like a wild animal, and now he was even more enraged.

Cecilia kept wriggling her body, trying to break free from his grasp, but her attempts were futile.

Clarence’s eyes looked dazed. He was panting heavily, his face completely flushed while the veins on his forehead throbbed. He was a hot mess.

“Your eyes… damn it! Someone drugged you! Who would…? Oh, the hangover drink!” Cecilia’s delicate body trembled as she realized what had happened.

Someone must have spiked the drink. That would explain Clarence’s behavior. No way could he have acted like this without some external influences, after he had downed almost ten shots of vodka!

“Clarence, wake up! Snap out of it! You’ve been drugged!” Cecilia loudly shouted at him while she slapped him repeatedly. Unfortunately, it seemed to only get him more excited!

Cecilia was at her wit’s end!

“No…”

She closed her eyes in despair. There was nothing more she could do, other than accept her fate.

‘Forget it. I quite like him, anyway… so if this is what he wants…’ Cecilia gradually stopped fighting back.

Just then, Clarence’s mind suddenly cleared. “Cecilia…”

“Clarence, you’re awake?” Cecilia’s pretty face was flushed.

Clarence’s body was trembling violently. “Cecilia, I’m sorry… I couldn’t control myself, I… Ahh!”

He roared again and pushed Cecilia away. He rushed headfirst into the bathroom and locked the door behind him. “Cecilia, put something against the door. I fear I might lose control again!” Clarence warned her in a pained voice.

“Clarence, it’s okay. Just come out if you can’t control it. I know you’re having a hard time right now. You’ve been drugged. It’s okay, I actually don’t mind doing it. You might die inside if you keep denying your body what it wants!” Cecilia’s face was beet red.

She had experienced the strangest feeling in her heart when Clarence wrapped his arms around her a moment ago. She felt like a drought-stricken dessert tasting rain for the first time in years, like Clarence was what her heart was longing deeply for.

She heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Clarence was no longer speaking. He had filled the bathtub with cold water and jumped right in, hoping to cool his head.

At this moment, the jade pendant on Clarence’s chest glowed bright green as it slowly eliminated the effects of the drug in his body.

Even so, Clarence still felt uncomfortable. He gritted his teeth and suffered through it silently.

Three hours passed.

Cecilia was waiting anxiously.

Suddenly, the suite’s door burst open, and in walked Chadwick Miller with a group of his minions, rushing in from the outside.

Click, click, click, click—!

Several minions were holding cameras in their hands, all taking pictures indiscriminately as soon as they entered the room, trying their best to get whatever evidence they could.

“Where did he go?”

Chadwick was stunned to find only Cecilia in the room.

Cecilia instantly reacted. “Chadwick, you did this, didn’t you?! How despicable and shameless! How dare you spike his drink!”

Her delicate body trembled with anger. Her own husband had drugged another man to have sex with her!

“Oh, but you had a good time just now, didn’t you? Now tell me, where’s that bastard?!” Chadwick’s face was cold and devoid of expression.

He was not afraid of Cecilia at all. As long as he had this first-hand evidence of Cecilia’s cheating, he would have the upper hand whether faced with a lawsuit or a division of the Shelby family property.

“Bastard!”

Cecilia rushed forward and raised her hand to slap Chadwick.

“B*tch, you just f*cked another man. Don’t touch me.” Chadwick kicked Cecilia in the stomach and sent her falling to the ground.

“Search the room!” Chadwick let out a hideous grin.

Suddenly, the bathroom door opened and Clarence exited with an indifferent look on his face. He had heard everything and knew what was going on.

“Boy, you’re still alive after taking that drug?” Chadwick was quite surprised.

“I gave this guy ten times the normal dosage for an adult male, but he’s unscathed. Is this man a cow or something?’ Chadwick thought to himself.

Clarence ignored Chadwick and helped Cecilia up. “Cecilia, are you okay?”

“Yeah.”

Cecilia’s heart completely sank.

Although she and Chadwick no longer had feelings for each other, they were still husband and wife. She would have never dreamed of him using such a vicious method to entrap her.

Was this still the lover she had sworn the rest of her life to on their wedding day?

Angered by Clarence taking no notice of his presence, the corner of Chadwick’s eyes twitched fiercely. “Beat this bastard until he dies!”
