As he approached the SUV, he froze because the person sitting inside was none other than Nathan Humphrey’s mother, Liliana Grey.

Liliana’s face was flushed red, and there was a noticeable injury on her forehead from the impact.

Greg thought she had been knocked unconscious by the hit, so he rushed to check her pulse.

Then, his expression immediately darkened.

The reason Liliana had passed out was not due to the impact, but because she had been poisoned with a potent seductive drug!

At this moment, her face was red, breathing rapid, and her heartbeat was as fast as a drum.

Clearly, the seductive poison had already invaded her heart, and he had to administer an antidote to her immediately.

Greg furrowed his brow and gestured to the security guard at the entrance of Dreamscape Garden. He was acquainted with the guards since he would occasionally chat and smoke with them.

The guard saw his wave and hurried over with a smile, “Mr. Jensen, don’t worry. We have surveillance at the entrance; this accident has nothing to do with you.”

“It’s not about that!”

Greg, caught between laughter and tears, said, “The person in the accident is my friend. I’m going to take her back to my place to rest for a bit. You keep an eye out for the insurance company’s people. When they arrive, help me handle the procedures.

After everything’s done, you can keep it with you until she’s okay to come and get it herself.”

The guard glanced at Liliana Grey in Greg’s arm and, with a knowing smile, nodded willingly:

“No problem, it’s a small matter. Drive in quickly, it’s freezing out here.”

“Great, thanks for the trouble.”

Greg carried Liliana to his car and drove into Dreamscape Garden.

Once at home, he took her straight to the bathtub and turned on the cold water, pouring it over her.

Then, he took a large amount of ice cubes from the refrigerator and dumped them all into the bathtub.

He hesitated for a moment before stripping Liliana’s clothes off and took out a silver needle, planning to stem the flow of the seductive poison.

But just then, Liliana, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes, looking at Greg with a dazed expression.

The next second, she lunged at him with her hot body.

Greg tried to break free but found that the poisoned Liliana was incredibly strong, and he didn’t dare use too much force for fear of injuring her.

Back and forth, Liliana, like a well-trained ground technique master, had locked Greg’s joints, and her clothes had long disappeared.

Waves of fragrant scent, accompanied by warm breath, entered Greg’s nostrils.

The unique charm of a mature woman was unmistakable at this moment.

After struggling a few times, unable to escape, Greg became heated up as well and carried Liliana back to the bedroom.

If he couldn’t resist, then he could only close his eyes and enjoy it.

Time passed, and eventually, Liliana fell into a deep sleep.

Greg looked at the messy room and let out a helpless sigh.

Who would believe this if he told them?

He shook his head, gently rose to his feet, and tidied up a bit before planning to go to the spare bedroom to sleep.

But then he thought, since everything that needed to be done was done, what was there to fear about taking a nap?

He turned back, about to get into bed to sleep, but found Liliana already awake, leaning against the bedhead and looking at him shyly.

“Uh…”

Greg’s face turned red and he said awkwardly, “Well… When I got home, I saw you had an accident, then realized you might have been drugged.

I intended to take you to the bathroom for a cold shower, but… it seems that it didn’t have much effect.”

Liliana’s gaze lingered on Greg, half her face hidden under the blanket, looking at his distinctly muscled physique while her heart raced.

Watching Greg Jensen struggling to continue, she blushed and said, “Actually… I remember everything.”

“Huh?”

“Yes, I remember what just happened. I initiated it, so don’t blame yourself.”

Liliana Grey’s gaze seemed distant, as if reminiscing about the sensation she had just experienced. Since her husband’s death, she had not felt this way.

Decades had flown by, and unexpectedly, the man she was with was a young fellow.

Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Greg hesitated and said, “Why don’t you… take a nap first? I’ll sleep in the next room. We can talk about anything in the morning.”

“No way!”

Liliana Grey lifted her head; the smile on her face had disappeared, replaced by a cold indifference as she said, “After all, you slept with me. Do you really think it’s going to end like this?”

Greg frowned and asked, “What do you want then?”

A sly glint appeared in Liliana’s eyes as she crooked her finger at Greg and said, “Come here, I’ll tell you.”

Greg unsuspectingly approached the bedside.

But at that moment, Liliana suddenly pounced on him and whispered, “If you want your sister to forgive you, you’ll have to do it again.”

“You… ”

Upon hearing this, Greg realized he had been played and flew into a rage, delivering a smack to her bottom.

“Brother, it hurts…”

“Don’t call me brother!”

“No, I will!”

Smack!

Another slap left her fair skin visibly reddening.

“Ahh, I was wrong…”

Until the break of dawn, the two were still wide awake, sitting side by side at the head of the bed, smoking cigarettes.

Moments later, Liliana suddenly turned her head, shared a look with Greg, and both of them burst into laughter before starting a conversation about the art of painting.

…

At Harrison’s Home Cooking, Cindy was livid, her face an iron shade as she said sternly, “Jay Brent, that son of a bitch, acts so tough. Turns out he’s just a silver needle with a wax head.

Failed to deal with Jensen, and instead got extorted out of two to three million, what a waste!”

“Cindy, don’t be in such a hurry. These things take time; you can’t rush them.”

Judy Lampe advised, “If it really comes to it, we can wait for Ethan to come back.”

“Dreamscape Garden will be opening soon, and they’ve even started advertising. If we wait for that bastard to return, all our loyal customers at Harrison’s Home Cooking will be snatched away.”

“But we don’t have any other good solutions right now.”

Cindy was extremely upset. After thinking it over, she decided to call Ethan to see if she could use his connections to dig into Greg’s networks and look for ways to deal with him.

This time Ethan was quite obliging, sending over a number to Cindy without a second word and telling her to call that person directly for anything she wanted to investigate.

Cindy finally felt somewhat relieved. After a spell of coquetry, she hung up and dialed the number Ethan had sent.

Once she made clear who she wanted to investigate, Cindy felt completely relieved and asked, “Auntie, when is Dreamscape Garden opening?”

“The 28th of this month. Seems like they’re planning to heat things up early and capitalize on the New Year’s rush.”

“Heh, find me a floor clock. When Dreamscape Garden opens, I’ll personally deliver it.”

“Great idea, that funeral bell will ensure their business plummets!”

“Hmph, let’s see what Greg Jensen is capable of this time.”
