Before Daphne could kiss Xavier, a strong force suddenly pushed her away. The man lying on the bed opened his eyes.

"Xav..." Daphne's expression changed instantly.

Hadn't Jeremiah said that Xavier had been drugged and would be completely powerless to resist?

Daphne quickly got up to leave, but Xavier grabbed her wrist first, holding it tightly.

"Who sent you? What are you trying to do?" he demanded. There was no way Daphne had the ability to kidnap him on her own.

"Xav, I don't know what you're talking about. You got drunk, and you called me to come over." Daphne tried to lie. If she confessed about Jeremiah now, there would be only one outcome-death.

Xavier was barely holding on at this point. He had been drugged at the banquet but had managed to stay conscious through sheer willpower. His forehead was covered in sweat.

Seeing that Daphne refused to tell the truth, he grabbed her by the throat. "Speak, or I'll kill you right now!"

Daphne's body instantly went rigid, and her breathing became labored. "H-Help me..."

Xavier's grip tightened, cutting off her voice completely.
