Lucinda frown deepened upon hearing him.

“From this moment, please address me as Miss Ross.

You should not address me so informally,” she instructed sternly.

Turning her attention to Nathaniel, who was standing beside her, Lucinda posed a difficult question.

“Enoch claims that Amanda asked him for the drugs, while Amanda says that he encouraged her.

Who do you think is telling the truth?”

Nathaniel’s expression grew grim as he turned his steely gaze towards Enoch.

“If you’re going to blame a woman for everything, that’s a cowardly way to handle things,” he sneered.

Enoch’s face turned red in anger.

Pointing his finger at Nathaniel, he scolded, “You’re just Miss Ross‘ servant.

You have no right to meddle in your master’s affairs.

Lucinda was not fooled by Enoch’s sudden shift in attitude, seeing right through his cunning nature.

She despised people like him the most.

She couldn’t stand listening to Enoch’s nonsense, so she raised her hand to interrupt him.

Suddenly, Abel placed an exquisitely wrapped square gift box on the tea table.

“What’s this all about?” Enoch was taken aback.

Lucinda smiled and replied, “It’s a gift for you.

Open it up and take a look.

Enoch was suspicious but didn’t say anything.

He felt her smile was a bit mischievous, and he couldn’t figure out what she was up to.

Zola, on the other hand, grinned when she heard it was a gift.

“Miss Ross, you are so generous.

She approached the coffee table, where the beautifully crafted box sat, and immediately thought the contents must be valuable.

Curious, Zola opened the box, but its content got her confused.

She found thirty small bottles arranged neatly inside.

Picking up one of the bottles and opening it, she discovered a clear, weird-smelling liquid inside.

Puzzled, she asked, “What’s this stuff?”

Abel explained, “These are special gifts from Miss Ross to you.

AlL three of you are required to pick out a bottle to drink every day.

Enoch was wary of Lucinda’s motives, so he moved closer to smell the bottle.

His expression changed drastically, and he quickly took the bottle from Zola’s hand and returned it to the box.

“Are these all aphrodisiacs?”
