Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Unwarranted Solicitude

She wasn't drunk last night; she was drugged as part of someone's scheme, and she can remember most of what happened between them.

As he spoke, those passionate scenes from last night flashed in her mind like a slow-motion film.

In the darkness, she and he were entangled together; she bit him several times stubbornly, and in the end, she took the initiative to cling to him. His scorching sweat dripped and splashed onto her body, like little sparks, burning her skin and making it feel hot...

The sensations were incredibly vivid, as if they had just happened, and even thinking back now made her blush.

Summer Ford was lost for words for a while after being blocked by his remark, awkwardly defending herself, "I was drugged!"

Ethan Laurent simply let out a faint snort and turned around, heading straight to the bathroom.

Summer Ford didn't leave either, not because she didn't want to but because she didn't have the courage to leave on her own.

The moment he went in, she immediately followed.

With his back turned to her, Ethan Laurent was undressing, preparing to take a shower.

Catching sight of her entering from the corner of his eye, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "What? Want to join?"

Who wants to join you?

"You wash first, I'll be out right away." Turning her back to him, she helped close the bathroom door, standing at the doorway, listening to the shower begin, pondering how to convince him to take her out later.

But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't come up with a reasonable excuse.

She and Ethan Laurent didn't know each other at all. Following him like this, he wouldn't suspect she had ulterior motives, would he?

Summer Ford knew what she was doing was inappropriate, but thinking about Ronan's shamelessness, she insisted on staying outside the bathroom, waiting for Ethan Laurent to come out, and changed her clothes while she waited.

Ethan Laurent probably stayed inside for around ten minutes. When he came out and saw her still there, he seemed slightly surprised for a moment.

"Need breakfast? I'll order it for you!" Summer Ford acted casually, walking to the phone and dialing the service desk.

Ethan Laurent watched her back coldly, letting out a faint snort.

Is she trying to please him?

Summer Ford was indeed trying to please him. Her intention was simple: she just needed him to go downstairs with her.

But Ethan Laurent didn't appreciate it.

"No need!" He tossed her three words indifferently, walked to the bedside, picked up the clothes from the floor before her, and unabashedly, while she was in the room, changed out of his bathrobe.

After changing, he glanced at her direction, seeing her still in the room, raising his eyebrows slightly, "Anything you need?"

Summer Ford lowered her face, contemplating how to speak to him.

Seeing her hesitating, Ethan Laurent smirked mockingly and teased, "Still not satisfied with last night? Want to experience it again?"

His words were blatant teasing, getting more shameless by the minute.

Summer Ford feared that he might say something even more vulgar, awkwardly changing the subject, "Aren't we leaving? I'll open the door for you!"

She was very cautious when opening the door, moving slowly and carefully glancing outside.

Her subtle actions made Ethan Laurent instantly understand everything, yet he didn't expose her.

This woman didn't seem to be stupid; she even knew how to use him!

Walking out unhurriedly, Ethan Laurent headed straight for the elevator.
