The red wine spilled from the corner of his mouth, trickling down his neck and staining his pristine white bathrobe.

Jennifer couldn’t help but notice his hasty consumption.

In a soft voice, she advised, “Don’t drink too much, Hilliard.

You have a low alcohol tolerance and might get wasted.

“Don’t worry.

I’m fine,” Hilliard replied tersely.

After emptying the entire bottle of red wine, he staggered to the bed and promptly slipped under the covers.

Under the sway of alcohol, Hilliard drew closer to Jennifer, enveloping her in his embrace.

In a voice tinged with hoarseness, he whispered into her ear, “Happy birthday, Jennifer.

I hope to celebrate each of your birthdays with you in the years to come.

Moved by his words, Jennifer clutched the covers nervously, rendered speechless by the unexpected sentiment.

Hilliard continued, “I want to give you a big surprise tonight.

A big surprise?

Jennifer turned to face him, curiosity evident in her expression.

“What is it?”

“It’s… I want to give myself to you.

” Hilliard’s flirtatious tone sent a shiver down Jennifer’s spine as he leaned in to ki*s her soft lips.

“Let me be yours, Jennifer.

What Hilliard said was undeniably alluring and captivating.

With her eyes shut, Jennifer found herself unable to resist Hilliard’s advances and surrendered to his initiative.

The room was saturated with an undeniable and palpable romantic ambiance.

Meanwhile, in N&L Fairy Land, Stastle.

Nathan remained awake throughout the night, keeping a vigilant watch over Lucinda.

It had been two days since Lucinda’s last relapse, indicating that the medicine prescribed by Aldric was indeed effective.

As a matter of fact, Aldric believed that even if Lucinda didn’t experience another relapse, it was still necessary to take her to the lab.

The intravenous drips would enhance the medication’s efficacy.

Therefore, Nathan stayed awake, silently waiting and planning to take Lucinda to the lab once she fell asleep.

To his surprise, Lucinda struggled to drift off all night.

Ever since her visit to the basement, her mind had been preoccupied with thoughts of the Nala incident from earlier in the day.

Lucinda’s mind was consumed by the events of driving Nala to Peace Mountain of the Simmons family.

The scene and details replayed incessantly in her thoughts.

The more she dwelled on it, the more suspicious Lucinda became of Nala, especially her peculiar behavior towards Graham.

Lucinda couldn’t shake the feeling that Nala’s attitude towards Graham was rather odd.
