    However, they quickly noticed the abnormality.


    The air was mixed with nitrous oxide, also known asugh gas, a colorless and sweet gas.


    The erotic in Rachel’s eyes dissipated a little as she looked down at David.


    Clearly, David also sensed the abnormal smell in the air.


    His fingertips wrapped around a strand of hair hanging down from Rachel’s chest. He narrowed his


    eyes, and an unknown coldness flickered in the depths of his eyes.


    When their eyes met, a thought-provoking dark glint shed across each other’s eyes.


    “It looks like we have guests tonight.” Rachel covered her mouth and nose with her clothes and


    wrapped her long hair behind her shoulders. Then, she turned around and sat by the bed. Her red lips


    curled into a cold smile. “It’s quite a unique thought to mix such a thing into the venttion


    system.”


    Mixing nitrous oxide into the venttion system and transmitting it to their room through the outlet ? was


    really impossible for them to guard against.


    Behind Rachel, David stretched out his arm and hooked her frail waist, pulling her into his arms. “Just


    some lowly tactics,” he said.


    Rachel broke free from his embrace and walked toward the window.


    After seeing through her intentions, David said calmly, “It’s useless.”


    However, Rachel had a glimmer of hope.


    Until she realized the window was locked from the inside. She couldn’t help but curse under her breath.


    With some resentment, she sat down on the sofa and grabbed a pillow to cover her mouth and nose.


    She said in a low voice, “Let me guess who the mastermind is.”


    David did not say anything but only supported his head with one hand andy on the bed, looking at


    Rachel lovingly.


    “It shouldn’t be Noah Jones,” Rachel said.


    Based on conventional thinking, the first person everyone suspected was Noah Jones.


    But from her impression of Noah Jones, she knew this person was quite cunning and very patient.


    They had just met Noah in the morning, and at night, they were drugged and schemed against. This


    was not something Noah Jones could do.


    Moreover, they had just met today. If he made a move tonight, wasn’t he clearly trying to light a fire on


    himself?


    David slowly sat up and pulled off his tie. His deep and cold voice was slightly hoarse. “It’s not him.”


    But the tie tightened. He crooked a finger at Rachel.


    Rachel understood what he meant. She stood up and walked forward. Her slender fingers slowly untied


    his tie and asked suddenly, “Where’s Yann Jones?”


    At night, Yann Jones suddenly left with his team, leaving only Billy and Chris.


    ording to Aureliana’s rules, unnecessary going out was not allowed after twelve o’clock.


    In addition, it took at least forty minutes to travel by seane between the attached ind and the main


    ind.


    If anything happened to them, Yann would not be able to rush over immediately.


    A thought suddenly appeared in Rachel’s mind.


    She lowered her gaze and looked at David in front of her. Her eyes flickered with a meaningful dark


    light.

    David’s palm slid down her back andnded on her waist. He pulled her into his arms tightly and


    caressed the soft flesh at her waist, saying softly, “He won’t appear for the time being.”


    Hearing this, Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly.


    She reached out to hold David’s face and slowly bent down. Her beautiful big eyes stared at his dark


    eyes without blinking, and her eyes flickered with excitement. “It looks like you are nning to wee


    the ‘guests’ personally tonight?”


    She had known David for so long but had never seen him fight.


    In his words, dealing with these small fries did not require him to do it himself. He only needed to stand


    at the side and instruct others to do it.


    Actually, she was still looking forward to seeing David fight.


    David curled his fingertips and lightly brushed them against Rachel’s nose, “Are you not afraid?”


    “What’s there to be afraid of?” Rachel looked at him with a slight smile on her face. Her gorgeous face


    looked even more beautiful. “Besides, it’s rare to see my powerful fiancé show off his skills. I should be


    filled with joy and anticipation.”


    Seeing the excitement in her eyes, David chuckled. “Didn’t you already know how capable I am?”


    Rachel blinked and recalled seriously when she had seen him fight.


    Sensing David’s ambiguous and evil smile, she immediately understood.


    Meanwhile, Billy and Chris, who were eavesdropping in the next room, were speechless.


    “If we were guilty, we could have been struck by a bolt of lightning from the heavens. Why did they


    have to force us to witness their disys of affection?” they thought in frustration.


    They looked at each other speechlessly.


    “Why was it that ever since Boss got together with Miss Grey, he had be more and more


    flirtatious?” They couldn’t help but wonder.


    As the night grew darker and darker, the entire ind fell into a dead silence.


    Other than the waves crashing on the beach, there was no other sound.


    It was as if everything had fallen into a deep sleep.


    Rachel leanedfortably in David’s arms. Her eyes were slightly closed, and her fingertips were


    tapping rhythmically.


    David didn’t say anything but just rubbed her forehead with his chin.


    Although they did not talk, there was a warm atmosphere around them.


    Just as Rachel was about to fall asleep, a series of footsteps quietly approached the vi.


    Rachel’s eyebrows moved slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up.


    “Don’t get hurt. Don’t do anything risky.” David knew that Rachel was skilled, but he still could not help


    to remind her.


    Rachel opened her eyes and raised her head to nt a gentle kiss on David’s lips. “If I wasn’t his


    match, remember to provide some support, my fiancé.”


    As soon as she finished speaking, the vi was already surrounded by people. Let alone a person,


    even a fly could not escape from them.


    This


    group of men in ck were well-trained. They were burly and held various knives in their


    hands.


    The moment they barged into the room, Billy and Chris appeared as if out of nowhere.


    After all, the two had been promoted through all kinds of selection and assessment. As David’s trusted


    aide, they were naturally not to be trifled with.


    However, they were greatly outnumbered. In addition, the group of people whounched the surprise


    attack tonight were well-trained. They were equally skilled in both footwork and fighting techniques as


    Billy and Chris.


    Moreover, the intruders had an advantage in numbers and took turns in fighting to tire them out. Billy


    and Chris’ stamina was being consumed bit by bit.


    As a result, they were unable to protect Rachel and David.


    They looked at David and Rachel worriedly, afraid that something would happen to them.


    As for Rachel and David, one of them was drinking coffee while watching the show. The other was


    watching the chaotic battle in front of him indifferently.


    Those who didn’t know better would think that they were just bystanders.


    “These people are deliberately exhausting their stamina,” Rachel said indifferently.


    David responded casually and slowly took off the diamond cufflinks. “Do you want to go for a practice?”


    “I do,” Rachel said as she tied her long hair with the rubber band on her wrist. From the corner of her


    eye, she saw the cufflinks on the table. “Is that the pair I gave you?”


    “Yes.” David said, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of it.”


    The moment he finished speaking, a group of people broke in through the window.
