Chapter 190 Good Thing
Lucky Draw
Hugh had a high tolerance for alcohol and rarely got drunk.
The problem was that he never used the same glass after leaving and coming back, and he hardly ever left his seat unless he went for a smoke.
And tonight, oddly, he hadn’t even stepped out for one.
Megan secretly slipped the drug to Bethan. “How about we switch places? You give it a shot.”
Bethan pushed her hand away. “If I suddenly switch with you, Hug will get suspicious.”
Originally, she’d planned to slip the drug into Hugh’s drink herself. But who’d have thought that Mason, trying to help, had pushed Megan right next to Hugh.
And just when Gwen gave her a chance to get closer, Arthur pulled her away.
Hugh was too smart. Changing seats now would be like 1./7

Bethan had no choice but to keep coaxing Megan, “Megan, be brave. Don’t be scared of him. You can either get pregnant secretly and use the baby to climb up,
or I’ll catch you two in the act and force Hugh to take responsibility. Decide what you want, and I’ll back you
“The Cavills care most about their reputation. If Hugh tries to dodge his responsibility, you can accuse him of rape. For the sake of their reputation and interests, the Cavills will have to recognize the child.”
Persuaded by Bethan, Megan found her courage again.
She knew she didn’t have the clout to force Hugh to divorce and marry her right away.
But if she could conceive Hugh’s child and strengthen their relationship, it would be as if she had already made. significant inroads into the Cavill family.
The two made their way back to the private room one after another. The game had just completed a full round.
Mason reminded Megan, “Megan, it’s your turn. Come 2/7

on, roll a seven and spice things up.”

Megan exchanged a look with Bethan and took the dice.
Bethan sat back down and covertly watched Hugh’s reaction.
Hugh was slouching lazily on the sofa, a glass in one hand and a metal lighter in the other, idly fidgeting with it.
His half-closed eyes masked his emotions, making it hard to tell what was going on in his head.
Megan nervously scanned the room and unconsciously tightened her grip on the dice cup.
Bethan had always wrongly assumed that Hudson was Hugh’s biological child and that there was a romantic relationship between Megan and Hugh.
She thought Hugh was protecting and taking care of them because they’d rekindled their old flame.
In reality, Hugh had made it crystal clear that he wanted to draw a clear line with Megan. He was just making up for his past mistakes and quashing all her delusions. 17:43

If Hugh found out she was trying to drug him, whether it worked or not, he’d be furious with her.
Since Bethan was willing to take the blame, Megan had to seize this chance. She decided to sleep with Hugh first and then figure out the next step.
Megan summoned her courage and rolled a nine right in front of everyone.
Amid the disappointed groans, Bethan leaned in again. “Megan, you took cold medicine before coming. You can’t drink.”
She kept giving Megan meaningful looks.
Mason chimed in, “It’s okay if you can’t drink. Hugh’s here.”
Megan timidly asked, “Hugh, can you drink this for me?”
Seeing that Hugh didn’t object, Bethan gave Megan another look. “I’ll speak for my husband. I’m cool with it. Pour a glass for him quickly.”

Megan clutched the thing in her hand and nodded eagerly.
Lucky Draw
Bethan skewered a piece of fruit and held it to Hugh’s mouth, but Hugh quietly pushed her hand away.
Suddenly, Gwen spoke up, “What are you hiding in your hand?”
Already nervous and guilt-ridden, Megan jumped at Gwen’s words. The bag of drug slipped from her hand and landed at Hugh’s feet.
Bethan and Megan looked at each other, then realized what was up and lunged for the bag at the same time.
But Hugh bent down and picked it up first.
Everyone crowded around. “What is it?”
Hugh’s gaze slowly settled on Bethan. Staring into her eyes, he said, “A good thing.”
Before anyone could react, Hugh stuffed the thing into his pocket.
