Chapter 62 Their ambiguity is discovered

“How is it possible? How could that be?” Ling slowly straightens up. The sound in the office is still
pouring into his ears.

Ling shakes his head hard. His sister-in-law...

“Claire, I supported you before. I thought it was my brother’s paranoia. You are a slut like your mother.
You’re hiding from my brother that you’re with other man.” Ling bites his teeth. He is disappointed and
turns away.

However, Claire and Bryce in the office don’t notice him at all.

Claire closes her eyes. She says, “I’m so hot... Help me...”

Bryce is stunned to hear Claire say help. All of a sudden, he stops undressing, and his body stiffens.

Bryce finally notices Claire’s abnormality. Her body is so hot and she’s confused. She is given an
aphrodisiac.

His eyes become cold. Bryce thinks that Qi must be dissatisfied with her, so she is harmed. Then he
immediately calls Qi.

“Hello...” There is a posturing female voice on the phone.

“I’m Bryce. You’d better come to my office as soon as possible!” Bryce says coldly, suppressing his
anger.

After a while, Qi comes in.

Bryce goes over to glare at Qi and sneers, “I’m sorry to disappoint you. What you hope to happen
hasn’t happened after all.”



Qi pretends to know nothing. She shakes her head. “Chairman, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Bryce interrupts Qi and roars, “do you think I’m a fool? Give me the antidote to the aphrodisiac quickly.”

Qi doesn’t think that Bryce didn’t enjoy Claire but wants to find an antidote for her.

In fact, this time her plan isn’t just to tarnish Claire. She wants to please Bryce. What happened at the
opening ceremony last time makes Qi quite sure that Bryce absolutely likes Claire.

Qi is still in a daze. Bryce raises his hand and pretends to hit her. It is the first time he wants to hit a
woman.

Qi is shocked. She says nothing and takes out the antidote.

Bryce takes the antidote and says to Qi, “if there’s something wrong with the antidote, I’ll punish you.”

Qi has been scared pale by Bryce. She tries to defend herself, but Bryce interrupts. “Now get out of
here and don’t dirty the office.”

Qi dares not speak. She runs away quickly.

Bryce mixes the antidote with water and feeds it to Claire.

The antidote works. The heat of Claire’s body gradually recedes. She stops panting or talking
nonsense. After a while she falls into a deep sleep.

The moonlight slowly rises outside the window, and Claire finally wakes up in a groan.

Bryce holds her in a hurry and says, “Claire, are you better?”

Claire rubs her forehead with her fingers until her vision is clear. When she sees Bryce, she shrinks in
surprise. She lowers her head and blushes.



“Brother Bryce, I don’t mean to. I don’t know what happened...”

“It’s not your fault, Claire.” Bryce pats Claire on the head with a warm hand. “You are framed by Qi.
Rest assured, I will punish her.”

Claire remembers that it is probably because Qi has put aphrodisiac in her lunch and it caused her
abnormality. She is angry, too, but...

“But even then, we did something. What should I do? I...” Claire is afraid that Leo will know about it.

Bryce smiles softly and says, “Claire, is your Brother Bryce the kind of person who takes advantage of
the situation? You can rest assured that nothing has happened to us.”

Claire lost consciousness under the influence of the drug. She doesn’t know what happened to her and
Bryce. But as Bryce says, nothing happened to them.

Then Claire calms down a little. She looks out of the window at the moonlight and says anxiously, “it’s
so late. I should go back now. Brother Bryce, see you next time.”

Bryce wants to stop Claire and takes her home, but he doesn’t want to be misunderstood. He is afraid
to give Claire more trouble, so he gives up.

When Claire gets home, she sees the gloating eyes of the maids at first sight.

A maid comes up to her. When she sees Claire in a daze, she sneers, “Master Howard asks you to go
straight upstairs to find him. Take care, madam.”

The maid’s words are full of ridicule and teasing.

Claire stares at the maid and walks into the villa. As soon as she enters, she sees Ling standing far
away. He looks at her indifferently and goes back to his bedroom.



Claire is shocked. Suddenly she is afraid, but she goes to Leo’s room.

Leo sits at a desk with his back to Claire. He doesn’t turn back when he hears her footsteps. He says
coldly, “now, do you want me to say it, or do you want to say it yourself?”

Claire thinks it is because of what happened tonight. Although she has a clear conscience, Leo is
suspicious. She doesn’t know what he will do. “What do you want me to say?”

Leo sneers and turns around. He cocks his legs and looks at Claire coldly. “You’re so late today. You’ve
been in Bryce’s office for a long time.”

Claire is embarrassed. She calms down and says, “I’m your wife. Please don’t frame me without
knowing anything.”

“I frame you? Ha ha!”

Leo seems to find the word funny. He looks at Claire and sneers, “so I’ll give you another chance to say
it yourself.”

Claire sighs, “this time I understand your suspicions. But I am framed. Qi gave me an aphrodisiac.
Nothing happened to me and Brother Bryce. He’s not the type to take advantage of the situation.”

“Brother Bryce! You are very intimate with him. Maybe when you have sex, you will be more intimate.
Claire, do you think I’m a fool? Or are you stupid?”

Claire stamps her feet and yells out, “I’m a victim, too. I can’t help it if you insult me.”

Leo comes forward. He suddenly reaches out and grabs Claire by the neck. His face is grim. “You were
not a virgin when you married me. You are a slut. What qualification do you have to say that you are
not that kind of person?”
