Chapter 473 Are You Alright
"What do you think? How should I punish a very... very... bad woman?" said Charles.
In the presidential suite
Leo had been waiting outside the door since he was asked to leave, and then he went straight into the
room right after Linda had left.
He was panicky and anxious while he was waiting outside the room. He regretted failing to stop Sophia
from doing stupid things.
"Are you all right? What did she tell you, Sophia?" Leo asked Sophia right after he set foot in the room.
"Nothing important, " answered Sophia. She was sitting on the chair, quiet but sullen. Her face was a
shade of corpse-like pale, and she seemed to be lost in thought.
'Was it wrong to fall in love with Charles?
It wasn't, was it?'
Sophia asked herself over and over again. She was wondering whether she should give up, or not.
"Stop thinking about it. Let's put everything behind us. Young Master Mu and Lady Linda aren't going to
do anything to you. Are they?"
Asked Leo. He was thankful that they hadn't notice the glass of water on the table. Leo had noticed it
when he had gone into the room the first time. Since there was still water inside the glass and it was
still where it originally was, he knew that no one had found out about it.
"Well, I don't care if they find out about what I was up to. What could they do to me?" Sophia snorted.
"Okay, okay. Keep your temper under control. You're the one who did wrong this time, so stop acting so
innocent. Have some rest now, " Leo told Sophia.
"Stop telling me what to do. Just go away, and leave me alone, " Sophia responded angrily. Sophia was
supposed to sleep in this presidential suite with Charles, especially if everything had gone according to
plan. Even though that wasn't happening, she still wanted to sleep here because it would somehow This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
comfort her.
She was very upset at Leo because he wasn't on her side. He thought that what she had wanted to do
was wrong. She wanted to drink something cold to calm herself down, so she reflexively reached for
the glass of water on the bedside table and picked it up without thinking before drinking it all up.
"Sophia... you've..." Leo was shocked by what Sophia had done.
"What? What's wrong?" Sophia wondered.
Leo had wanted to stop Sophia, but it was too late.
Then, Sophia had realized that she drank the glass of water that she was supposed to have given to
Charles. The one with the drug in it...
She had increased the dosage of the drug so as to make sure that Charles would really want to have
sex with her if he had drunk it.
The effect of the drug was to increase a human's sex drive to the point where he or she wouldn't be
able to think of anything but to satisfy his or her lust. Sophia thought that if she would get lucky, she
might even conceive Charles's child tonight. However, everything was in vain now. What's worse, she
had drunk the water with the drug in it.
"What should I do? Is the drug really strong?" Sophia held Leo's hands and asked.
"Yes, it is... very strong, and it should take effect in about five minutes..." Leo didn't know what to do,
either.
Sophia was so reckless. How could she forget that the water was drugged? She was even the one who
had put the drug in it.
Now that the drug would take effect any minute now, none of them could do anything to stop it.
Sophia panicked. Before she could think of any solution, she felt her whole body heat up, which meant
that the drug was already showing its efficacy.
She felt hot... like, really hot...
All she wanted now was to put something cold on her body.
"Leo, I am getting hot..." Sophia was spellbound. She was starting to hallucinate that the man standing
in front of her was the man that she loved, Charles.
"Sophia, how many pills did you put in it?" Leo asked worriedly.
Sophia shook her head in order to clear her mind. She thought for a while and answered, "Six, I think."
"What? How can you change the dosage without asking? I've told you that three pills were enough.
That can already last for an hour. Why did you double it?" Leo was at a loss when he heard Sophia's
answer.
He had told her several times that three pills were enough. He couldn't believe that Sophia would not
take his words seriously.
This aphrodisiac was an illegal drug, after all. Taking it would do no good to one's health. Its effect was
very strong, and overdosage might greatly damage one's body.
"I was afraid that it wouldn't work, " said Sophia.
Leo was speechless. Looking at Sophia's red face, even he was starting to get carnal impulses.
"Let me send you to the hospital right away, or you would have to endure the drug's effects for hours, "
Leo suggested.
"Leo... Leo... I want..." Sophia mumbled.
Leo didn't even wait for Sophia to finish her words before he rushed into the bathroom and turned on
the water from the bathtub. He jumped right in, so the cold water would drench his whole body. He
needed to chill the fuck out as he was afraid that he might not be able to control himself if Sophia kept
calling his name in a sexy voice.
Dousing himself with cold water made him feel better.
Leo walked out of the bathroom when he felt that he had calmed down a bit. But he was shocked at the
sight of Sophia the moment he got out. She was sitting on the floor, and her skin was really red.
"Sophia, let me take you to the hospital."
"No, no. I can't go to the hospital... I'm a famous celebrity. The doctor might find out that I took drugs,
and if that leaks out, my career might get ruined..."
If the nurses and the doctors would recognize her and find out about this, the news might get out of
control. There were different kinds of people in the hospital, and it would be impossible to stop
everyone from spreading the news out to others. If they would go to the hospital, there was a high
possibility that Sophia would make the front page tomorrow.
The media was very fond of this kind of news, and this would affect Sophia's career badly, since she
was best known for her innocent image.
This would be a juicy story because this drug was not even commonly used. The nurses in the hospital
might blab the news to the media reporters.
'What should I do?' Sophia kept asking herself this question. Leo didn't know what to do, either.
He had gotten the pills from one of his friends who was a doctor. The pills were prescription-only, and it
was a drug that was impossible to get from just any ordinary pharmacy.
Leo knew well that sending her to the hospital wouldn't be a good idea, but he didn't know what to do at
this point. Sophia could hardly sit on the floor, so she lay herself down. The floor was dirty, but cold.
The minute Sophia lay down, she started to flatten her body against it, trying to absorb the cold. Leo
couldn't stand to watch her squirming on the floor any more, so he tried to get her up.
That was when he felt how hot Sophia's whole body was.
It seemed that the pills were stronger than he thought, and Sophia was suffering a lot.
After Leo had helped Sophia sit on the bed, he said, "If you really don't want to go to the hospital, I can
go to the pharmacy to see if they have anything to counter the symptoms, or I can go and buy some ice
bags for you..."
Before Leo finished his words, Sophia had already pushed him to the bed and got on top of him. "I feel
really terrible. I really can't stand it any more. You like me, don't you?"
"Sophia, don't do this. You'll regret it..." Leo loved Sophia very much, but he didn't want to take
advantage of her in this kind of situation.
He was Sophia's agent, and they weren't in a romantic relationship, only professional.
He knew well that Sophia didn't like him at all...
Perhaps, she had liked him before, but she had never fallen in love with him. Leo understood that she
just liked the way he adored her, and that was it. He knew he could never give her whatever she
wanted.
