Chapter 29 The Struggle

as the water…

A strange sensation quickly spread through Daniel’s lower abdomen. Damn! It was the

Thinking about the glass of water the waiter had given him, Daniel cursed under his breath.

He had let his guard down and fallen right into a trap!

Daniel’s eyes turned red.

Sally, noticing Daniel’s changed expression, asked with concern, “Daniel, what’s wrong?”

Still clinging to a shred of sanity, Daniel replied, “Leave now! Just go!”

Sally thought Daniel didn’t want to see her and clung to the door handle, gritting her teeth. “I’m not leaving! Daniel! You can’t kick me out! Not until you promise to come with me to Andy’s grave!”

This foolish woman!

He had told her to leave, yet she clung to the door like a stubborn dog.

The drugged water quickly destroyed Daniel’s self–control.

He glared at the woman in front of him, saying coldly, “I gave you a chance, and you didn’t take it…

Before Sally could react, Daniel yanked her into the room!

“Ah-“Sally cried out as Daniel roughly pinned her to the bed!

“Daniel, what are you doing?” Sally was shocked by his actions!

Daniel clearly intended to….

Sally struggled fiercely.

No, this couldn’t happen…

She only saw Daniel as a friend, how could she have a sexual relationship with him?

It was terrifying!

Daniel’s reason was gone; he only wanted to tear off Sally’s clothes.

As they wrestled on the bed, the door suddenly burst open!

“Ah! It’s here!” Mary’s voice rang out. “Anders! I just saw my sister head to Daniel’s room. I was worried about her, so I came to get you…

Seeing the two intertwined on the bed, Anders’s eyes turned red!

He reacted quickly, kicking Daniel off the bed!

Daniel winced in pain, the shock bringing him back to his senses.

Seeing the furious man in front of him, Daniel’s own anger flared.

“You bastard! How dare you hit me?” Daniel charged at Anders, landing a punch.

Anders, now enraged, retaliated, and they fought fiercely!

“Stop, stop fighting!” Seeing the situation escalate, Mary rushed to intervene.

Fearing he might hurt Mary, Anders stopped.

Daniel, aware of Mary’s close friendship with Mia, also stopped fighting.

Anders glared at Daniel, then turned his gaze to Sally on the bed.

“I can’t believe you’d sink this low,” Anders spat with disgust. “Do you enjoy seducing men? Isn’t one enough? You need more? Are you that desperate?”

Sally felt a pang of sorrow at Anders’s words but couldn’t show weakness in front of the man who indirectly caused her son’s death.

“Who I seduce is none of your business, Mr. Anders,” Sally said with a bitter smile. “Or do you enjoy meddling in others‘ affairs?”

Anders clenched his fists.

Sally’s words were not what he wanted to hear!

This woman was too much. How could she seduce so many men? Didn’t she feel dirty?

Mary interjected, “Daniel, what happened? Why did you attack Sally?”

“Me, attack her?” Daniel laughed bitterly. “I didn’t attack her! If it weren’t for that waiter drugging my water, I wouldn’t have…”

Daniel paused, then glared at Sally. “Are you in cahoots with that waiter? Did you set me up?”

Sally quickly defended herself, “I didn’t! I don’t know any waiter! I came to talk to Daniel about something else!

“Sally, what did you want to talk to Daniel about?” Mary asked, watching Anders’s expression. “Was it because you’re unhappy about Mia being with Daniel?”

Anders’s eyes immediately changed.

“So that’s it.” Daniel laughed coldly. “No wonder you were at my house earlier… You wanted to seduce me!”

Sally felt desperate.

“I didn’t!” Sally shouted. “I never wanted to seduce you! I came to see you because of my

my poor dead son!”

Anders found Sally’s stubbornness infuriating.

son! Because of

“Stop lying.” Anders said coldly. “We’ve seen what you’ve done. Why are you so low? Can’t you live without a man?”

“Why won’t anyone believe me? Why?” Sally couldn’t hold back her tears any longer. “Why does everyone doubt me?”

“I believe you!” Suddenly, a voice shouted from the door!

Everyone turned in shock to see Gale stride in!

Sally was stunned.

How… How Could it be Gale?

Why was Gale back so suddenly?

Sally felt a surge of joy!

Gale glanced at Daniel, then said sternly, “I can vouch that Sally never intended to seduce Daniel. That drugged water wasn’t Sally’s doing.”

Sally’s eyes brightened.

“Oh? What’s your evidence?” Daniel challenged. “Show tr

Gale smirked, “I checked the security footage… Guess what? Someone else drugged that water.”

Mary’s face turned pale!

She hadn’t expected her plan to be folled by Gale!

Suppressing her discomfort, Mary smiled, “Gale, weren’t you abroad? Why did you come back so suddenly and find us here?”

Gale calmly replied, “I finished my business and went to Sally’s place… Then my men told me she was here at the gala. I heard about the commotion here, so checked the footage first.”

This idiot! Why did he always ruin her plans?

Mary wanted to strangle Gale!

She hated him!

Gale and Sally were indeed siblings, both equally infuriating!
