Under the Heiress' Facade

"I know I've made a mistake, Mr. Killian. Can I not drink it?" Lorna gulped while asking nervously.

Fiona had prepared the aphrodisiac for Lorna. Moreover, Fiona even added extra so that she and Lorna could achieve their goal.

As the aphrodisiac was quite potent, most people would lose their senses after having half a glass. In the end, they would only be left with their primal urges.

Bernard did not say anything else as he pointed the gun at Lorna.

With the muzzle of the gun pointed in her direction again, she became so terrified that she had no other choice but to do as he said.

"I'll drink it! I'll drink it!" Lorna slowly walked toward the coffee table. After taking an empty glass and filling it up halfway, she tilted her head backward and forced herself to finish its contents.

Bernard cast a glance at her before checking the time. Having estimated that it was almost time for Hera's return, he resisted the itch on his body and tipped his head back to finish the remaining glass of spiked water.

Lorna was shocked to see Bernard drink it. At the same time, the aphrodisiac was starting to take effect. She began to feverishly tear off her clothes while moving closer to him.

Meanwhile, Fiona was in the banquet hall. She checked the time before looking at the closed door to the lounge.

Lorna had not come out after being inside for such a long time. Fiona thought it was very likely that Lorna had succeeded in the task.

Fiona was determined to give Lorna a hand. If Lorna could marry Bernard, the Killian family would be a huge support to Lorna and Fiona.

After all, the Killians would be a powerful backer. Moreover, Bernard was Tyler's nemesis. Thus, Lorna could hold her own against Tyler and become the head of the Presgrave family.

By doing so, the right to manage the Presgrave family in the future would not end up in the hands of Tyler, the illegitimate child. With that in mind, Fiona intentionally led Connor, and a group of guests toward the lounge.

As the group drew closer to the lounge, they heard moaning through the closed lounge door. Having heard the sounds, everyone looked embarrassed as they whispered to each other.

"Are Mr. Killian and Ms. Presgrave inside?"

"Doesn't Mr. Killian already have a girlfriend? How could he cheat on Dr. Shadow?"

"It can't be Mr. Killian. Wasn't he with Dr. Shadow earlier?"

"They did enter the lounge earlier. But not long after, Dr. Shadow went out with Mr. Presgrave."

"That means Mr. Killian is still inside the lounge with Ms. Presgrave."

"The moans definitely sound like Ms. Presgrave. ver knew that she was such a slut."Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Fiona silently listened to everyone's

speculation. The gossip sounded

horrible and wasn't any good for Lorna's reputation. But that would mean n that Fiona and Lorna had achieved their goal since everyone knew that Bernard had slept with Lorna.

The next step would be to figure out how to force Bernard into promising to marry Lorna in front of everyone else.

Connor's expression darkened. He

was already humiliated enough by

Tyler, who had shown up to Connor's birthday party with green

hair and even interfered with Hera and Bernard's relationship.

Yet, Connor never expected that Lorna would take it a step further and have sex in the lounge where everyone could hear her.

To him, Tyler and Lorna had completely ruined the Presgrave family's reputation. Thus, Connor angrily strode forward and kicked open the door to the lounge.
