I’m warning you! You’ll never succeed, not when I’m around!”
With her hands on her hips, she puffed her chest forward and continued snarling, “If you’re even a man, Ashton, you’d stop freeloading at my house, refusing to leave!
“If you had any real ability, you’d better go out there and make a name for yourself. Otherwise, I’ll always look down on you. I’ll definitely find a way to chase you out of here!”
Since her first plan had failed, she came up with a second one–to goad him into leaving!
“Why does it matter to me whether or not you look down on me?” Ashton coolly replied.

“That’s enough. Stop arguing. Anyone who comes here today is a guest of mine. Sit down, everyone.”
Trent Kramer, the main star of tonight, was eyeing Melody with a possessive look in his eyes. Smiling, he gestured for Ashton and Melody to take their seats.
Sally scoffed as she cast yet another displeased look at Ashton.

Completely unbothered, Ashton found himself a seat and sa down. Soon, Melody was happily joining in on the fun with Trent, Sally, and the others.
At that point, Trent’s eyes gleamed cunningly. He handed a glass of water to Melody, saying, “You must be thirsty. Have some water, Melody.”
He’d spiked the water with a heavy dose of aphrodisiac!
Trent had one clear motive tonight–to use his birthday party as his chance to get Melody in bed, making her the best birthday gift he could possibly get.
He’d been pursuing her for some time now, but she kept rejecting his advances. However, he’d never failed to get his hands on a woman he wanted before.
As long as the potent dose of aphrodisiac entered her body, it didn’t matter how chaste she was. Eventually, she’d give in to her desires and be completely at his mercy!
Once he’d gotten her in bed, he’d have her right in the palm of his hand.
Trent had made all the arrangements. The only thing he didn’t expect was for Melody to bring Ashton along. Nevertheless, that wasn’t a big deal. No one was going to be able to stop him from taking Melody for himself today.
“Thanks, Trent,” Melody said with a grin.
She accepted the glass of water without even the slightest sense of caution. However, just as she was about to drink the water, Ashton snatched the glass out of her hand.
Eyeing Trent coldly, Ashton threw the water right at Trent’s face.
