Chapter 51

Rachel entered the study at night to serve Justin with some tea.

At the sound of the door being opened, he instructed her without looking up, “Put it down.”

Even though she did as he asked her to, she stood there without leaving.

“Drugs?” Justin frowned. “What kind of drugs?”

Rachel made a few hand gestures with slight embarrassment.
