Chapter 29

"Sorry, I didn't mean to," Dustin said, instantly regaining his composure. He rushed to push Natasha away, his face etched with awkwardness. Everything happened so quickly he hadn't had time to think.

"It's okay. It was my fault. The drug might have been too strong; I really couldn't control myself," Natasha replied coyly, glancing at Ruth and silently cursing her sister for ruining a rare opportunity. Ruth could've just left. Why did she have to scream? I'm cutting her allowance this month! she thought.

"Ruth, help your sister to lie on the bed," Dustin instructed.

"Hmph! Of course, I will. Did you think you could take advantage of her again?" Ruth rolled her eyes, then helped the grumpy Natasha to the bed.

"Ms. Harmon, please remove your shirt and lie on your stomach," Dustin added.

"What? You pervert, what are you trying to do!" Ruth's anger flared.

"Don't get me wrong. I have to use a needling method to extract the toxins from your sister's body. Otherwise, she'll get worse over time, to the point where she'll lose control," Dustin patiently explained.

"Are you serious? You're not trying to scare me, are you?" Ruth looked skeptical.

"Why would I lie to you about this?" Dustin said incredulously.

"Fine. I will trust you for once. But you have to look away. Don't peek!" Ruth warned.

"Okay." Dustin turned around without another word.

"Natasha, put on your bra. You can't let him do anything to you," Ruth said, handing Natasha her bra.

"Ah How considerate of you, Ruth," Natasha said, her voice strained.

"Don't mention it. Come, let me help you." Smugly, Ruth quickly helped Natasha. Then, Natasha said, "I think you can head out now. Don't disturb Mr. Rhys from treating me."

"No way! What if he tries to lay his hands on you? I must watch him closely!" Ruth immediately rejected her suggestion.

Chapter 29 (This should be removed, as it duplicates the chapter heading)

Natasha's eye twitched. Why is this girl so dense? I have to teach her a lesson later, she thought helplessly.

"Hey, Rhys, you can look now." After receiving Ruth's permission, Dustin turned around. Natasha was lying obediently on her stomach, her smooth, fair back exposed. Her back, waist, and neck formed a line of perfect curves. At first glance, she looked like an exquisite piece of artwork.

"What are you waiting for? Get to work!" Ruth yelled from the side, staring at him firmly. Dustin regained his composure, took out his needles, and sat by the bedside to begin treating Natasha.

Even though the aphrodisiac was potent, it wasn't difficult to treat once discovered. The only problem was that Natasha's body was too alluring. Added to her charmingly flustered expression, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Fortunately, Dustin possessed excellent concentration and focused only on the important parts to resist her allure.

Around 15 minutes later, Dustin breathed a long sigh and removed the needles. "Ms. Harmon, your body is free of toxins now. You can flush out the remaining drugs by drinking more water."

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Rhys," Natasha said shyly, a lingering seductiveness on her flawless face. It was like sweet wine—so intoxicating.

"Natasha, hurry up and put on your shirt!" Ruth immediately wrapped her sister up tightly, fearing she would be taken advantage of.

"Ms. Harmon, the aphrodisiac you were drugged with is very similar to the one your grandfather was poisoned with. Based on my judgment, it must have been the same culprit," Dustin said.

"No wonder I felt something amiss," Natasha nodded thoughtfully.

"This can't go on. To avoid similar incidents, we must find out who is behind this as soon as possible," Dustin advised.
