"They slipped aphrodisiacs into my drink. Linden was the one who saved me from those bad guys, but he didn't take advantage of me. Instead, he found another way to help me deal with the effects of the drug. We got together after that."
Clara Grant was a little surprised that she and Poppy had gone through such a similar ordeal. At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh. 'Same situation, but such different fates.'
'We were both drugged, and we were both rescued, but Poppy came out of it completely unscathed, while I lost my virginity!'
'Poppy was lucky enough to meet a true gentleman like Linden Jennings, while I was unlucky enough to run into a "beast" like Seth Quinn!'
"Brother Jennings is truly a gentleman," Clara Grant remarked. After a moment's hesitation, she asked tentatively, "So... you must know that Seth Quinn used to have a fiancée, right?"
"Brother Quinn told you?" Poppy Vance asked back, not seeming particularly surprised.
