Chapter 607 Simons expression turned dark.


    Do you think I wanted this? If I didnt trick you into drinking this Enthralling Essence, would you ever willingly give yourself to me? Before Francesca could respond, Simons face twisted with rage as he shouted, No! Your heart is full of that Andrew Lloyd, that useless pretty boy! I just dont get it, he continued, his voice filled with frustration.


    Compared to me, your childhoodpanion, what is Andrew anyway? Hes nothing but a pathetic excuse for a man! Francesca swallowed hard, her throat burning as if mes were licking up from within


    her.


    She was wearing a cropped white T shirt and tight jeans, but under the effects of the Enthralling Essence , she felt an uncontroble urge to remove her clothes.


    Yet, in thest moments of rity, her rational mind forced her to stop.


    Andrew would never stoop to your level, doing something so vile and disgusting to his own junior! And now that youve hurt my grandfather, Simon, I swear Ill never forgive you as long as I live! Her voice wavered as the effects of the drug overwhelmed her mind, leaving her increasingly disoriented. Simons eyes gleamed with unbridled lust as he smirked.


    Francesca, stop resisting.


    Just surrender to me already.


    You know as well as I do how potent the Enthralling Essence is.


    Before long, youll be begging me to love you.


    And when that happens, Ill dly grant your wish! The mere thought of what was toe sent Simon into fits ofughter


    Francesca was desperate but utterly powerless.


    Even if she wanted to call for help, her phone had already been taken by Simon, and she barely had the strength to lift a finger


    Time ticked by, and with every passing moment, the drugs influence spread further through her body. Francesca could feel herself losing control, and the idea of bing Simons ything brought tears to her eyes.


    Never in her worst nightmares had she imagined her first time being stolen by someone as despicable as Simon- and through such a despicable, underhanded method at that! Nearby, Dr.


    Aickery injured on the ground, his lips bloodied and his face red with fury.


    Simon, you ungrateful wretch! If you dare harm Francesca, Ill spend everyst penny I have to see you destroyed


    Simon sneered, You wont have the chance, old man.


    You cant even beat me anymore.


    And once Francesca is mine, once she carries my child, do you think youd really have the heart to kill the father of your grandchild? I doubt it.


    Dr.


    Aickers voice trembled with rage.


    Youre a monster ! Do you have any shred of humanity left in you? Simons tone turned venomous. Humanity? You burned that out of me a long time ago, old man.


    Whats so great about Andrew ? Before he became known, he was just some pathetic kept man, living off


    that so called Ice Queen of Stevens Corporation, only to be thrown out like trash.


    That losers only skill is mooching off women! And yet, Francesca is head over heels for him.


    Fine, whatever.


    But even you, Dr.


    Aicker, have fallen for his nonsense.


    Why? Why him and not me ? Dr.


    Aicker let out a bitterugh.


    You fool.


    Youll never understand.


    Andrews medical skills, his knowledge, his very background none of these are things you could everpare to


    But thats not even the point.


    Ive admired his talent and character, yes, but I never once expected you topete with him.


    Youre my eldest apprentice, Simon.


    Whether you were talented or not, I only hoped youd live your life with honor.


    But no, you had to turn everything into apetition.


    You couldnt ept yourself as you are


    Did it never ur to you to ask what do you have topete with? Even I, your mentor, cant measure up to Andrew


    So what right do you have?
