"Detective Wales..." Natalie hurried towards him and be picked a glass of wine and gave the other one to Natalie.

"I will see you around, Miss Jun" Wales said and smiled as he looked at the confused face of Natalie and walked away.

Natalie looked at the white wine and shook her head. She was about to put it away when Laura walked over and said to her.

"Let's have a toast, Natalie. You did wonderful today"

"Hi, Laura" Natalie looked around for Mikael.

"Janice Yun invited Mikael over to take a look at the jewelry as one of the first bidders"

"First bidders?" Natalie asked confused.

"Yes. Didn't you know? I guess it was a surprise. I accidentally spilled the beans. Natalie, pretend you didn't know anything"

"I..."

"Why aren't you drinking?" Laura asked and Natalie looked at the glass in her hands.

"Come, there is someone I want you to meet" Laura dragged Natalie along as she walked towards a couple.

Mimi who was sitting alone quietly at her table smiled. Who would have thought that she would find an ally in Laura. It seems the universe was on her side after all.

A few minutes ago.

Laura was sitting alone when Mimi pulled a chair out and sat across her. Laura frowned. Even though they knew each other, they had never interacted with each other before.

"You are in love with Mikael, right?" Mimi went straight to the point and asked.

Laura was taken aback. She frowned, "I don't know what you are talking about" she said to Mimi.

"Don't worry. No one else knows except me. But, I can help you get him if you also help me out a little" Mimi said and smirked. She leaned closer and said something softly into Laura's ears.

After her whispering, she asked Laura. "What do you think? Are you in or not? We will be killing two birds with just a stone"

"What if we are caught?"

"We won't be caught. The only person who will be caught is..." Her eyes shifted to Natalie and Wales, "her"

"I'm in" Laura said.

"Alright" Mimi smirked.

Mimi chuckled after thinking back on her little plan with Laura. She turned and saw Director An walking towards her.

"Director An, have a seat" Mimi said politely.

"You seem to be in a good mood?" Director An asked and followed her gaze, seeing Natalie and Laura talking to a couple.

"Director An, I told you to trust me, right?" Mimi looked at him.

"Yes, you did"

"You won't be disappointed tonight. This is the room key. When the official launching is almost over, go to this room and get ready for your meal"

"Alright. I owe you Mimi. I will make sure you get rewarded handsomely for this"

"Thank you"

...

"Mr. and Mrs. Copper, this is Natalie. The beauty behind the name of the jewelry tonight. Natalie, meet Copper Jewelry CEO and his wife" Laura introduced them cheerfully.

"Hello, Me. and Mrs. Copper, I am Natalie"

"Natalie, I was impressed by you so much" Mr. Copper said and lifted his glass to click with Natalie's. Natalie smiled and sipped the wine after clicking with them. She seemed pressured and a little confused. Her mind was still filled with thoughts of Wales words and her mother.

By the time she came back to her senses, she had drunk another glass of wine before she went back to her table and the program started off again.

Natalie's face became slightly pale. She took out the bottle of water by her side and opened it, sipping the water a little and tried to focus even though she felt something was wrong with her body.

The vault containing the precious Jewel was brought out. When the white cloth was taken off, everyone gasped at it's exquisiteness and unique pale creamy appearance.

"Everyone, I present to you, 'Shadowed Beauty', the pride of Janice Jewelry" William said and everyone clapped their hands.

"The bidding will soon start for 'Shadowed Beauty', as we all know, this is to help raise money for people suffering from leukemia. Every money raised here tonight is going to the foundation that my mother started"

As the speech was still going on, Lucy turned and noticed Natalie scratching her arms. "Natalie, are you alright?" She stopped Natalie.

"Huh?" Natalie seemed to have enough come to her senses and looked at her arm which was beginning to form red scratch marks. She flushed and covered her arm with the table cloth. "I'm fine. Lucy, I'm going to the washroom. I will be back"

Natalie stood up and five people's gazes followed her. Mikael, Wales, Andrew, Mimi and Laura. Mikael and Wales stood up at once and followed her but Wales took the other gate to avoid been noticed.

Wales met Deno who was at the door and asked him, "it's this what I asked you to prepare?"

"Yes, elder brother. But, this... You might lose your job because of this"

"I don't care. I'm doing this for aunt. If she won't hesitate in hurting my cousin, why should I hesitate in hurting her? Send it to her and meet me outside"

"Yes, elder brother" Deno nodded and walked towards Mimi with a glass of wine. She had requested for it a while ago.

....

Director An opened the door and entered into the room. He smiled when he saw how it was decorated for him. He felt satisfied with everything. He looked at his watch. It was about time his meal was brought to him.

Director An took of his suit and removed a syringe and a small bottle containing a sex boaster. He sat down and undid his sleeves to inject it into himself. He was going to enjoy himself so he wanted to use something that would give him a lot of energy. He didn't plan on stopping tonight.

....

Natalie washed her face with the water but she kept feeling hot all over. It was an uncomfortable feeling that came from her inner being.

Natalie turned and bumped into someone. She looked at him and smiled, "it's Mikael Sun" she hit his chest.

"You never listen. You stupidily fell into her trap" Mikael said and lifted her up. When he got out of the ladies' washroom he saw Wales standing by the door.

"I'm watching you, Mikael Sun" Wales said and walked away.

Mikael looked at him and turned the other way. After he left, Mimi rushed out of the hall and hurried to the washroom. She splashed her face with the water.

"What is wrong with me​" she frowned and turned to leave. When she got to the door, she saw a man at a distance. Her body instantly heated up and she fought herself but couldn't fight it as she started walking towards him.

Deno who was in the waiter's uniform looked at her subtly before he started walking towards the same room that she had prepared for Director An.

Mimi frowned. She wasn't stupid. She knew something was wrong with her. She knew the feeling so well but what she didn't understand was why she was feeling that way. She couldn't have mistakenly drunk the spiked wine, righ"

"Hey, help me" she shouted at Deno.

"Are you alright, Miss? Do you need me to take you somewhere to rest?" Deno stopped and asked her.

"Help me" Mimi finally touched him. She felt the male hormones and wanted to touch him even more. Deno frowned and dragged her into the corner. When he got to the room, he knocked at it and left Mimi there, before rushing off.

The door opened and Andrew quickly pulled the lady inside. He had purposefully turned off the light to avoid been seen.

He smiled and touched the woman's body. He was all charged up and couldn't control himself anymore.

Mimi was defenseless in his arms. Even though she wanted to fight back, she didn't have the energy and her body felt hot. She wanted to be close to the male in front of her too so after little resistance, she gave everyone him.

Andrew pulled her up and started kissing her. She responded and soon they tore away every single piece of clothing in their bodies. Indulging in their passing, it didn't take long until they became one with each other.

....

Mikael stood by Natalie's side and held her hand as she struggled under the influence of the drug in her body.

Dr. Andra looked at him and sighed, "I know you want to respect Natalie but I must be honest with you. She needs to be relieved and the injection isn't going to do that for her. It will only suppress the urge in her but once it wears off she will become even more hungry than ever. I don't know how Mimi got her hands on this drug but it is illegal and she can get arrested and sentenced to 7 years in prison"

"I didn't know who to call because it's risky to let someone I don't trust know about Natalie's current situation"

"Natalie told me you two are married? Why are you hesitating? Don't tell me you haven't done that yet?" Andra gasped, "you two are so pure"
