Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1940

Bryan froze, but he quickly came up with an excuse. "Gem, what's wrong with you?"

He extricated himself from the situation. "Did you forget that you invited me to stay? Isn't this your intention?"

"What's my intention?" Germaine sat up with a straight face. "I'm fully awake all the way from the restaurant to here. I don't remember inviting you."

Bryan was taken aback. "Just now, weren't you…"

"What about me? Did you think I passed out? I should have slept deeper so that you could do whatever you wanted, right?" Germaine pressed on aggressively with an imposing demeanor.

"It has been ten years already. Do you think I'm still that gullible woman from back then?"

"Gem, you really misunderstood me." Bryan was still trying to argue.

Germaine no longer held back and confronted him directly. "What did I misunderstand? Did you not drug me, or did you not plan to set me up with the developer to achieve your long-sought social position back then?"

Speaking of the past, Bryan couldn't help but become serious. "You were there too. You saw it with your own eyes; I didn't agree to it."

"You didn't agree verbally, but you did it behind my back. I was lucky to have met a doctor who helped me realize that you fed me with Eternal Slumber.

"It could make me unconscious and also make me lose most of my memory upon waking up. Mr. Wixx, you really put a lot of effort into it."

That past not only represented Bryan's darkness but also served as a lesson for her. She hadn't been willing to talk about it for so long because she didn't want to recall her miserable self, whose sincerity had been betrayed.

Germaine sat up again, adjusted her dress, and leisurely admired the fruit of her victory. Her kick was perfectly aimed; now Bryan should understand what real pain felt like for a man.

"Didn't I tell you that I'm no longer the woman I used to be? Over the past ten years, I've learned taekwondo, practiced boxing, and even dabbled in karate. How dared you force it on me?"

This was what happened if one didn't listen to women—one would suffer for a long time.

Bryan, embarrassed and enraged, got up and lunged at her again, grappling with her. "I made you this outstanding; what's wrong with sleeping with me for once?"

Although he looked menacing, the little strength he had was nothing to Germaine. She pretended to struggle for a moment and was about to push him away for real when the door swung open from outside.

Jenson charged in from outside and happened to see Bryan grabbing Germaine, looking like he was about to do something inappropriate. Enraged, he rushed over to lift Bryan up and punched him with all his might.
