However, as soon as Victoria touched his button, her wrist was grabbed by a
strong force. She looked up and was met with ric’s dark gaze. In the dim
living room, ric stared intently at her; his eyes were like a predator eyeing
prey.
Victoria was startled since she didn’t notice he had woken up. Good, he’s
awake. I can tell him to clean himself up. However, he seems kind of off. Is he
not right in the head? Although she had never tried it herself, she had heard
things about being unable to control oneself if they were drugged. What if…

could hear ric’s breath bing heavier.
Immediately, her expression changed drastically, and she tried to struggle
out of his grasp. “The alcohol and towel are right beside you. Since you are
awake, you can do–ah!” Before she could finish her words, she yelped when
ric pulled her toward him. Then, Victoria’s view turned upside down as
ric pinned her to the couch. His breath was hot, and his scent surrounded
her. He pinned Victoria’s hands above her head and leaned down toward her.
In that split second, Victoria’s heart almost jumped out of her chest. She
remembered the kids were still sleeping in the room and whispered, “What

are you doing, ric?”
However, ric ignored her and continued to lean downward.

Just as Victoria thought about kicking ric to get him back to his senses,
thetter leaned against her and stopped moving as he stared at her
silently. Their faces were inches apart from each other, and Victoria could
see lust intertwined with struggles reflected in his orbs. Since ric was
holding himself back, he frowned deeply and breathed heavily. After some
time, he rxed slightly and lowered his head.
Seeing his reaction, Victoria panicked. Did he give in?
However, at this moment, ric cupped her face and pressed his lips against
her forehead. After that, he shakily backed away and looked at her with a
pale face. “Don’t worry. I’m not going to hurt you.” Then, he quickly released
her and scrambled away.
After he left, Victoria sat on the couch in a daze. She could still vaguely feel
the warmth of his lips on her forehead. After some time, she returned to her
senses and quickly chased after him. With a loud bang, ric entered the
bathroom and closed the door. Then, Victoria could hear the water running. It

was evident as to what he was doing there. Although taking a cold shower
was the best way to deal with it, it was winter. Victoria couldn’t care less if it
was summer, as she would also dly drag him into the bathroom and let
the cold water do its magic.

If he were alert enough, he wouldn’t have stepped into the trap. Rather than
make the same mistake again. Thinking about it, Victoria made up her mind
and turned around, yet she halted after taking a few steps. Then, she went
back and turned the doorknob, but it didn’t budge. Hmm? Did he lock himself
in the bath?
She frowned and tried to say something, but ric cut her to it.
“Don’te in.” Although his voice sounded strained, he was panting heavily.
Plus, he was being drugged, so Victoria knew he was probably jerking off in
there.
In that split second, she pursed her lips and resisted the urge to drag him out
of the bathroom. Still, she couldn’t stand it and said to him through the door,
“Just take a cold shower, and don’t do anything you are not supposed to.”

The only response she got was ric’s heavy panting.
Victoria’s eyes widened when she heard it. “I’m talking to you, ric. Are you
listening? ric!”
However, no matter what she said, ric ignored her, seemingly having
decided not to listen to her. Plus, he might be too busy to acknowledge her.
Victoria was furious. She gave up on talking to him since she knew it was
useless. Then, she went to the living room and took his cup to the kitchen.
After cleaning the cup, she went to check on the kids. Seeing that they were
still asleep, she rxed.

After a few minutes, she went to the bathroom and knocked on the door. The
water was still running as if ric was addicted in there.
This b*stard! Victoria scolded him inwardly. She gave up and waited for him
in the living room. In the end, she was getting drowsy since ric was still in
there. Soon, she fell asleep against the couch.
After some time, Victoria jolted awake. The living room was silent, but her
heart was thumping wildly. Up until now, ric was still in the bathroom. Did
he faint in there?

Thinking about it, Victoria quickly went to the bathroom. At this moment, the
water had stopped running and was silent. She twisted the doorknob and
realized it was still locked from the inside. Thus, she could only knock on the
door and call him. However, there was no response.
Victoria frowned and wondered if he had fainted in there. Suddenly, there
were noises behind the door, and the door was unlocked. Immediately,
Victoria pushed the door and entered the room.

As soon as she entered the bathroom, she saw ric lying on the cold
ground. He was soaking wet and looked miserable. His hair was dripping wet,
and there were water droplets on his pale face.
Looking at his face, Victoria quickly crouched and touched his forehead. The
touch was not burning hot anymore but rather icy cold. It seems like the
effect must have worn off. Then, she turned up the hot water and put the
showerhead in ric’s hand. “Are you awake? Here, soak yourself in warm
water to warm yourself up.”
Initially, ric had his eyes closed. When he heard her voice, his eyes
fluttered open. Although he said nothing, he obeyed her words and took the
showerhead. The warm water made him regain his consciousness. ric
looked up and saw her leaving the bathroom. After some time, she came
back with a set of men’s clothing.
“The clothes are on the rack. After you are done washing yourself, wear it and

At her words, ric silently looked at her momentarily before asking, “Where
did the clothese from?”
