Chapter 40: Can I Kiss You?

Nathan looked up from the documents he was reviewing to the man who had just addressed him, a sharp glint in his eyes as he stared. It was his assistant, Ian Walters

Vanessa was fed a slow acting poison once she had been brought to the club. And its effects took action just as she was aiming for Mrs. Li"
