An overwhelming presence suddenly enveloped Isabella. The rush of masculine pheromones that hit her was so intense that her body nearly gave in, instinctively leaning back.

Isabella's eyes widened in disbelief as she watched Alexander gradually close in on her, her breath hitching momentarily.

Alexander's eyes softened, his voice deep yet filled with a cool sensuality, "Isabella..."

"What?" Isabella instinctively raised her hand in surprise.

The bathrobe, already widely open, allowed Isabella's hand to rest directly on Alexander's chest, which was still damp with mist.

A wave of sweetness welled up in Alexander's heart. As expected, Isabella talked big, but when it came down to action, she probably would retreat into her shell instantly.

He didn't necessarily want to do anything, it was just because of a sudden urge brought on by the effects of the drug... to kiss her... those panicked eyes and trembling eyelashes.

Wait, didn't just see that the coffee was actually not drugged? T-Then Alexander should not be affected by any drug. right? What is he trying to do? Has he suddenly gone mad? Alexander was utterly confused.

Isabella's expression indeed changed, she exclaimed in surprise, "Alexander, you..."

Alexander felt a sense of urgency, almost biting his own tongue. "Y-You're sitting on my clothes."

Isabella and Alexander were both at a loss for words.

Glancing down, indeed, a corner of the newly delivered shirt had been inadvertently sat on by Isabella,

With an awkward smile, Isabella stepped aside. Alexander rose to his feet, feigning composure. As soon as Isabella moved away, he picked up his clothes. Phew, that was scary. I thought... cough, cough, what a shame / was hoping to take advantage of him.

Alexander thought, "How stubborn."

Isabella held her racing heart, sneaking a glance at Alexander. Seeing him pick up his clothes and return to the bathroom, she finally let out a sigh of relief. Recalling the gossip from just a moment ago, she immediately shifted her attention.

What's going on? Why didn't Rebecca's coffee contain any drugs? Someone switched the drugged coffee, and now it's Mrs. Gonzales who's affected by the drug! Such a twist... So the one with Ruth right now is... No way, no way, no way! Ugh!

Hold on, this isn't right... No, they aren't related by blood... But still, it's not acceptable! How could they?

Even Alexander, who was inside getting dressed, became curious. What on earth was she on about?

Where's Gordon? Alone in his room... left to his own devices?

When Alexander emerged, he noticed Isabella crouching by the door, slyly peeking through the slightl ajar door.

It seemed like there were footsteps outside. Alexander positioned himself behind Isabella..

Quickly, Isabella gestured for him to be quiet with a hush sign.

With a quick glance, Alexander noticed someone stealthily carrying photographic equipment, searchin

for a room.

After singling out a room, they then commenced their performance, acting out a scene of catching adulterers in the act. This resulted in a substantial uproar, which apparently roused several guests on the same floor.

"Huh? Why are mom and dad here?" Isabella was surprised and wanted to step out, but was held back by Alexander.

"Didn't you notice that Christopher didn't show up? Now that you're a celebrity, a mistakenly taken phot could spell trouble."

Isabella suddenly felt wronged.

I could have been the first to know, oh dear lord, why must this happen to me?

Observing Isabella's pitiful expression, a tremor passed through Alexander's lips. He turned around, picked up the black shirt and draped it over Isabella's head, saying, "Cover your face, I'll take you over." "Wouldn't it make me stand out more?"

"It doesn't matter if you stand out, as long as your face isn't captured. My photos, generally, won't be shared."

Isabella's eyes lit up instantly. She draped herself with the black shirt, still carrying the scent of Alexander, leaving only her eyes visible. Then, she looked at Alexander with an eager anticipation.

Alexander casually draped his arm over Isabella's shoulder, positioning her protectively in front of him as if she was under his care. With an air of confidence, he walked out the door, ready to join the fun. Watching them appear together in such a manner, the Quirk family members couldn't help but want to laugh. After all, Alexander would never engage in such tomfoolery in the past. Alexander felt somewhat uncomfortable under the intense scrutiny, while on the other side of the door, Christopher couldn't help but resentfully watch his brother and sister-in-law. Thinking of a solution at this point was futile, and with one more person, he would have been even more conspicuous.

The people on the same floor didn't pay them any attention. After all, there was a scandal unfolding right before their eyes, and everyone couldn't help but want to get a closer look at the drama, Before they could gather, the paparazzi had already barged in through the door, and in an instant, sounds akin to porn films echoed throughout the room,

Before Isabella could react, her ears were swiftly covered.

Looking at the other members of the Quirk family, they too quickly covered their ears, yet their faces displayed a certain surprise and confusion.

Their initial reaction was, had Gordon, who'd been drugged, sought out his wife for an antidote?

The commotion created by these two middle-aged individuals was truly... a testament to their vitality in old age.

But in the next moment, they heard the innermost thoughts of Isabella.

Simon must have been truly desperate to be able to stomach anything! Not only is there a twenty-year age gap, but she is his aunt, too!

The Quirk family members were confused.

Wait. What did she

in a full sentence?

y? Why was it that they understood each individual word, but did not understand it

Who was this Simon? And who was his aunt?

Isn't this where Gordon and his wife were?

No, that's not quite right. To be precise about the current situation between the two, Ruth is under the influence of some kind of drug. It's not necessarily that she is willing. On the other hand, Simon is not affected by any drug... The Quirk family thought, "No, no, no, we just let you have a private date with Alexander, how did we miss out on so much information?"

When had Ruth been drugged? Wasn't it her who had drugged Rebecca?

The Quirk family was on the verge of desperation, itching to grab Isabella and interrogate her thoroughly The situation had taken such an unexpected turn, it had escalated to a matter of family morals.

With the sound of the door being thrust open, cries of surprise echoed from within.

They clearly heard the voice of Ruth and a somewhat younger man.

Then, the person who barged in exclaimed, "Oh my goodness! It's not Rebecca and Gordon, but Ruth and Simon, Gordon's nephew!"

In an instant, Isabella's innermost thoughts were thoroughly confirmed.

Everyone in the Quirk family was feeling uneasy, regardless of their status. At that moment, they all wanted to exclaim, "What the hell!"

The other guests who joined the crowd might not have known them, but just hearing those titles gave them a sense of taboo.

Such a forbidden affair, it was something that one just had to see for themselves. Thus, suany people followed the paparazzi in. Isabella was quite tempted to take a look inside but feared it might be too overwhelming for her eyes.

Hence, she merely stood by the door. Simon's furious roar soon followed from inside. "Who are you people? You're invading my privacy, get out!"

You're quite the actor. Isn't this all your doing? So, you've been using all your acting skills for this, haven't you?

The Quirk family didn't join in the festivities, instead they stayed nearby, listening to Isabella's

commentary.

Was this all planned by Simon? What was he trying to achieve?

My worldview is truly shattered, the one who switched the coffee was him! When Ruth was picked up, she was oblivious to the fact that she had been drugged. She initially went to the adjacent room to replace Simon, asking him to help cancel the plan and prevent the paparaz to paparazzi had their eyes on this room.

While they were immersed in the details of the story, a sharp slap echoed from within the room.

"Have you lost your mind? How could you...

"You were the one... No, Ruth, you were the one who held me first! I wanted to help you, I-I like you, sob

sob sob...

"Simon, you...

The Quirk family thought, "They actually cried!"

Judging from Ruth's tone, she actually believed him?

Such acting skills, such talent... Even your uncle would have to kneel before you. To snatch your uncle's livelihood, to save twenty years of struggle, your acting skills have truly reached its peak.

Just then, the door next door swung open abruptly. Gordon, his face as pale as a sheet, stumbled his way through the crowd and rushed inside.

"What are you guys doing?"
