Chapter 78 The Slap on the Face Should Be Symmetrical
The lady who could make Euan say the word “love” was indeed someone special. So, Aiden agreed to
help him and promised that he would find out the truth soon.
“What else do you want to know apart from her injury five years ago? It’s just a small matter. It’s not
enough to make you feel miserable about it, isn’t it?”
The Young Master Gibson was not a fool either. Such a tough man like Euan would not be a snowflake.
“Besides, there’s one thing that I have recently begun to doubt. Was the wine with drugs that I drank
that time made by her?”
He only remembered that night they were in the biggest pub in the JD city. Many women surrounded
him. He could not recall which part went wrong. The wine he drank was the wine that she made, or she
mistook someone else’s wine?
After he was drunk, she was dragged to the bed by him, or she was the one who made love with him of
her own will?
Was she the one who volunteered herself to make love with him that day?
He was angry at that time and had placed all the resentment on her…
No. If she was innocent, why did she ask him to marry her after that? The incident that happened
played in his mind like a slow-motion film.
A part was missing in his memory. There must be something that he could not remember.
He had to find his lost memory back! To restore the truth!
Aiden understood what he meant, “Okay, I’ll first check her situation when she studied abroad in the
United States, then check about the wine when I get back to our homeland. Euan, your stepbrother is
back in the country. Your family is messed up.”
Euan sneered, “You better not mess it up more.”
What was he talking about? “Just go to bed. It’s 1:00 a.m. now in China. I’ll listen to your story when I
get back and meet the special lady who our Young Master Euan cared so much about her.”
After putting down the video call, Euan went downstairs unexpectedly. He had a flash of thought. If she
was the one who set up the trap that time, would he give up on her?
Damn it! Since when did he become so indecisive?
The next morning, Riley had a headache after the hangover. The sunlight shone on her face from the
window, which made her feel warm and lazy. She did not feel hot or too bright because of the air
conditioning in the room.
Riley frowned and was dumbfounded!
How did she come back last night? She remembered she drank up a glass of whiskey when she played
the game with Euan. Then, she forgot what happened next.
Riley lifted the blanket and looked down at her clothes…
Shit! Where were her clothes? Where was the dress she wore last night? Why was she wearing
pyjamas at the moment? And…and…someone had changed her panties too?
Fuck? What happened last night?Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Riley would not know at least for now, that Euan came downstairs last night and entered her room
again.
She was throwing up and not only dirtied her clothes. She even threw up on Euan’s Versace.
Euan used up all the patience he had accumulated for all his life, helping her take off her clothes and
carrying her to the bathroom. Then he washed her up and changed her underwear and pyjamas.
What happened was, Euan almost had insomnia because of her, while she was already deeply asleep
and did not know what was happening when Euan was cleaning her up.
Riley walked out of the room dizzily and went to the bathroom to wash up. When she saw Euan’s
clothes were in the laundry too…
He might have drunk too much last night too. Probably he was not any better than her.
It must be the maids who changed her clothes.
“Mrs. George, the breakfast is ready.”
Riley drank a glass of water and saw the breakfast on the table, “How about them?”
“Ms. Saunders said that she was sleepy and didn’t want to eat breakfast. The Young Master asked us
not to wake him up before ten.”
Oh…
Would the desire of those who were drunk increase so much? Both were so tired that they could not
even wake up in the morning?
Riley was heartbroken and felt like crying, but she smiled instead. She sat on the chair that the maid
pulled out for her and started enjoying her breakfast.
“By the way, how did I get back last night?”
Jodie shook her head, “I waited until 11:00 pm, but you and the Young Master weren’t back yet. So, I
went to bed. Probably Sophia would know, but Sophia took a day off today.”
“It’s okay then. You can go ahead. You don’t have to wait here to serve me.”
When Riley arrived at the hospital, the look of her colleagues on her was somewhat different. But she
did not care.
The motto of Riley’s life was to use more of her time and energy on work and less in life. Small matters
would not be able to affect her mood.
“Good morning, Dr. Watson.”
“Dr. Watson, good morning!”
Riley, who was wearing a white coat, walked quickly through the corridor. Many doctors and nurses
greeted her all the way. She nodded in response but did not slow down her steps.
Last night, Euan clarified her identity, and now she was treated differently.
Huh!
“Dr. Watson, we envy you! You’ve participated in the Military Commander’s surgery and had the
opportunity to sing in an expensive karaoke. And you even had a friendship gathering with MBK
International Corporation! We heard the doctors and nurses in the Surgery Department saying about
this today. We are so envious of you!”
Rose placed her hands on her chin and looked at her enviously.
“Do you want to go?” Riley opened her computer and looked at the patients’ file.
“Of course! Of course, I want to! Being able to sing with a famous person like Euan. Damn, Euan is a
wealthy man!”
“If you really want to go, lay down and take a nap.”
Rose said nothing.
She took a few seconds to react, “Whoo! You are asking me to just dream about it? You are so bad, Dr.
Watson!”
The rich were like a city surrounded by the great wall. The ones that were in it wanted to get out while
other ones who were outside wanted to get in.
“Dr. Watson. The patient yesterday who had coronary heart disease is looking for you.”
“Let her in.”
When the patients were here, she had to be busy for some time. After treating four to five patients, it
was almost noon.
“Dr. Watson, let’s go for lunch!”
“Okay.”
When she and the doctor in the same office changed their clothes after putting down their stethoscope
and were prepared to go for lunch, her phone in the pocket vibrated.
The name flashing on the screen was Young Master Hendrix.
After being quiet for these days, the injury on him seemed to have cured.
“What’s the matter?”
“Riley. I miss you a lot. Do you miss me?”
It’s difficult for a dandy man to change!
“It seems that your body doesn’t hurt anymore. Do you want to be beaten up by your father again?”
“No, no, no. It’s scary! Erm…how did you know that I was beaten by my father? Damn, it’s too
embarrassing that my story spread so far.”
“Is it far? It was only half an hour from the George Mansion to YJ villa.” Riley answered the call and
took off her white coat.
Riley’s words were sharp, Hendrix was not her opponent, “Riley. My father had gone on a business trip.
I am too bored. I had barely been able to get out of the house today. Let’s go and eat something
delicious! Please don’t reject my request since I was injured, and I saved you. I have no friends in this
country, and I am lonely…”
“Enough. I have two hours break at noon. Come quickly!” The Young Master Hendrix was good at
acting pity.
“Come down! I’m at the door opposite your outpatient department!”
She was speechless.
The red Ferrari racing car sped furrily and stopped at a high-end western restaurant. Coincidentally, a
yellow Ferrari was parked beside them, and the license plate number was familiar.
Huh!
It was a coincidence!
“Young Master Hendrix is an expert when it comes to eating and drinking. The place you choose is not
bad!”
It was not bad. If not, why would Freya’s car be there!
Hendrix smirked, “Please go in, Riley.”
The decoration inside was elegant and noble and the piano music was soothing. The light that was
lowered on purpose gave an effect of soft and beautiful light on the ceiling. It was no doubt that the
place was suitable for dating.
So, when Riley entered the restaurant and before she sat down in front of the French window, she saw
Freya having a meal with a guy.
She was wearing a beautiful and sexy V-neckline dress, and the artificial face under the heavy make-
up was delighted. Both of them chatted happily.
“Hey, isn’t that your sister? Since we meet her here, why don’t we sit together?” Hendrix was idle and
just wanted to have some fun. Freya was the best appetizer before the meal.
Riley pursed her lips and acquiesced, “I don’t mind. Do whatever you want.”
Hendrix placed one of his hands in his pocket, and the other was playing with his car key. He was like a
dandy playboy.
“Miss Watson, we’ve met again.”
Hendrix walked over and leaned against their table. His eyes were deliberately exploring Freya’s
neckline.
Freya was, of course, proud of her perfect breast. She revealed her cleavage more on purpose and
greeted him with a smile, “It’s Young Master Hendrix. We are destined to meet each other.”
‘Fuck! What bullshit did you say! You always say that to every rich man!’
“Since it’s such a coincidence, why don’t we share a table?” Hendrix raised his eyebrows in a flirty
manner.
Freya thought he was interested in her and quickly laughed and said, “Luke, you don’t mind, do you?”
The rich man with the name Luke Dotson was obviously one of the rich men she flirted on. He was
definitely to be dumped. “Of course not. Young Master Hendrix, please sit.”
Who would dare to offend the George family in JD city? They had to be polite whenever they meet
them.
Hendrix pursed his lips, “It would be too congested for four. It will make my VIP guest feel
uncomfortable.”
“VIP guest?”
Riley, with a simple black Chloe shoulder bag and a clean face without any makeup, said, “Are you
surprised, sister?”
Freya clenched her teeth and spoke sarcastically when she saw Riley, “Bitch is indeed a bitch! You
even seduce… Young Master Hendrix.”
She did not dare to expose Euan’s secret marriage, or she would be torn into pieces by Euan a
thousand times. So, she changed the word brother-in-law to Young Master Hendrix before she spurted
out the words.
“Miss Watson, you should mind your words!”
“Did I say anything wrong? That night at the party, my sister did not only flirt with your brother, she
even…”
Slap!
Before Freya could finish her words, a slap was given to her. The slap was from Hendrix, hitting
accurately on her fair face, which imprinted a red handprint on her face.
“I had warned you to mind your words. Miss Watson. Do you want another slap on the other side of
your face too?”
The restaurant was too quiet. So, the sound attracted the attention of the customers. Freya covered her
face that was slapped and cried, “You…you slapped me?”
“So what?”
He had been holding onto the slap for a long time! He wanted to do that at the party itself. She was
unlucky to meet him today.
Luke quickly got up, “Miss Watson, I, I’ve something to do. I’ll leave first.”
He then fled off after lying.
Hendrix sneered, “You have a bad taste in man, Miss George. It’s okay if your company is ruined by
you. It will be not worth it if you ruin yourself too.”
One side of Freya’s face was swollen due to the slap, and she roared in anger and frustration,
“Hendrix, she is just a bitch! You would not be having a good ending being around her! She used the
same tricks to flirt on your brother before…”
Slap!
Hendrix’s second slap fell on the other side of her face with the same force, “Now it’s symmetrical, Miss
George!”
