Chapter 68

Hailey wondered if her eyes were playing a trick on her.

She clearly remembered that the party was at night. The sun couldn’t possibly be setting now.

You weren’t mistaken. The sun has set.” Behind her, Owen’s arm pulled her into his embrace again.

His voice was hoarse and sexy, and especially deep.

“It’s almost evening the next day, Hailey. We slept for a long time.” He leaned over and kissed her face.

Hailey stiffened and thought, ‘Gosh, I came to attend a party and slept until the next night? Oh no, my reputation is ruined‘

“Why did you-” Halfway through her sentence, Hailey froze. She wondered why her voice was hoarse.

She heard Owen’s low laughter. “I’ll get you a bottle of water.”

Hailey’s face turned extremely red. She punched Owen angrily.

Hailey felt terrible after not eating or drinking for a day. Her stomach was growling from hunger, and her body was very tired.

Owen brought her a bottle of mineral water. “I ordered food. It’ll be delivered soon.”

Hailey only felt her throat was a little better after drinking half a bottle of water.

She took out her phone and called the Dalton Mansion.

She had not gone back for the entire night. Her grandfather would probably be worried sick.

As expected, there were countless calls on her phone.

After reporting her itinerary, Hailey got up, put on her clothes, and went to wash up.

“How are you feeling now?” Hailey asked vaguely as she ate.

Owen nodded. “I’m fine now.”

“What happened? Was there something wrong with the wine?”

Owen was silent for a moment. “There was an aphrodisiac with hallucinogenic ingredients in the red wine. After I went to the washroom yesterday, I felt dizzy. Then, someone appeared beside me and said that she would take me to the lounge. At that time, I thought that person was you, so I followed her.”

“And then what happened?”

“When I reached the door of the lounge, my mind suddenly cleared up. The hallucinogenic content in the aphrodisiac probably wasn’t much. I recognized that the person wasn’t you, so I left.” At this point, Owen revealed a gentle smile. “Fortunately, you appeared in time.”

Hailey was also a little afraid.

Owen had explained calmly, but an aphrodisiac was potent even if it did not contain much hallucinogenic content.

It was obvious from the state Owen was in last night.

If she hadn’t appeared, something would have gone wrong with Owen.
