Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1939

"The glass is covered in powder; it's still the same even if you pour the wine again. Replace it with a new one and coat the inside of the glass with a thin layer before bringing it back. Bear in mind that if she finds out, you'll lose your job as well as the final payment."

"I got it. I'll definitely do as you say."

As expected, the things done behind people's backs were always shady.

Bryan saw her staring at her phone and mistakenly thought she was contacting Jenson. He mocked sarcastically. "I really don't understand women.

"You can even accept physical infidelity, but I neither slept with other women nor was I mentally unfaithful back then. Why can't you let it go?"

Hearing that, Germaine put away her phone and looked up at him coldly. "Some people may have a tainted body, but their hearts remain pure. Meanwhile, some people can't even hide the stench of their rotten hearts no matter how glamorous they appear on the outside."

It had already been proven who was genuine and who was a fake. No amount of flattery or sweet words could change that.

Bryan picked up on the underlying meaning in her words, and his expression changed slightly.

The atmosphere instantly fraught with tension. Fortunately, the waiter returned and interrupted them at this moment. "Sorry to interrupt, but let me fill up your glasses."

The waiter followed the instructions and poured two glasses of wine on the spot, placing the one with the drug in front of Germaine.

"Please enjoy," he said with a bow before retreating.

Bryan immediately composed himself and raised his glass with a smile. "Let's forget about those unhappy things for the time being and just focus on this beautiful night. Cheers."

Germaine picked up the glass and gave it a swirl. She raised it in a toast to him from afar before drinking the wine in one gulp.

She then calmly took a napkin to wipe her mouth, spat the wine back out, and discreetly set the napkin aside.

Bryan looked at the empty wine glass in front of her, and a victorious gleam flashed in his eyes. He quickly paid the bill and sent Germaine home.

Inside the house, Bryan placed Germaine on the couch and admired her beauty up close.

Although she was already over 30 years old, her skin was still as flawless as that of a college student in her 20s. Her figure was also still the same, with curves in all the right places.

No wonder she was the only woman who had ever captured his heart—she had always been so disciplined.

As he looked at her, he suddenly felt something was off. He had clearly drugged her with an aphrodisiac, but why did she pass out? Could it be that the drug was too strong?

He couldn't be bothered about it now. There was no turning back, and he had to proceed. He must have her tonight.

With that thought, he knelt on the couch and leaned forward to kiss Germaine on her lips.

"What are you doing?" Just a moment before his lips touched hers, Germaine suddenly opened her eyes and stared at him.
