She noticed she was in an unfamiliar room. It looked modern and minimalistic, with mostly black, gray and white furnishings. There weren't any decorations either, with merely a book named 'The 48 Laws Of Power' by Robert Greene placed on the nightstand.

"Who� What� Where?" Renee muttered in confusion. She had way too much to drink last night, and couldn't remember anything that happened after she blacked out. She then lifted the blankets, only to find that she was wearing nothing but loose pajamas, not even underwear.

'Oh no� Oh no!' The woman felt her head throb painfully, and wished she could end it all right there.

"Oh hey, you're up. Good morning." Jovan greeted Renee with a soft smile, leaning against the door frame in casual clothing.

"Ah!" Renee jolted in surprise. Seeing him only made her thoughts become even more chaotic. She was too nervous to speak at this point, and couldn't even form proper sentence. "Jovan, what... What happened? Why am I... Did you... Did I..?"

Jovan smirked slyly. "Don't worry, nothing happened between us last night. I may have fancied you for a very long time, but I would never take advantage of you when you're in a vulnerable state."

"Really?" Renee raised an eyebrow, doubtful. After all, this man was known for his schemes and antics. His reputation was in the dirt, and he seemed absolutely capable of doing something like that.

"Of course! I want our first time to be nice and memorable, so we can reminisce about it over and over again...". "Shut up!" Renee threw a pillow at his head. " "I always knew you had a dirty mouth.. but it's good to know you know boundaries."

She would definitely castrate the man if he ever laid a finger on her. Jovan took a sip of coffee and chuckled. "Not that I know boundaries. It's also just that it's hard for drunk men to get it up to begin with. Don't you at least know that much?"

"Really?" Don't people make mistakes when they're drunk though?"

Renee asked. As she remembered, her first time with Stefan only happened after they drank together. Moreover, she knew another pair who experienced the same Xavier and Leia. In all honesty, she wasn't quite sure if Xavier and Leia had done the deed, but she definitely had sex with Stefan back then.

"If a man was actually drunk, they'd rather lie down like a dead log. If he can still screw around while being drunk, it just means he wasn't that drunk to begin with. It could be that he's desired the woman for a long time, and wished to take advantage of her. So he used alcohol as an excuse to."

"Oh�" Renee fell into deep thought, speechless for a moment. She thought to herself, 'So Stefan was secretly into me during our marriage, even though he showed so much disgust towards me for years? Looks like he's just a prick who won't admit his feelings! So doesn't that mean� he wasn't talking from the heart when he said those harsh words?'

"I may have kept to myself, but you vomited all over the place last night. I hope you don't mind that I let my eyes wander while changing you," Jovan said calmly.

Renee shuddered and quickly hopped out of the bed. "What do you mean by that?! You pervert! What did you do to me?!"

"Nothing really, I'm just thinking about how certain feelings can blossom out of control�" Jovan mumbled to himself, then turned to her with a mysterious grim. "I have to say though, Stefan sure is a lucky guy. I wonder if he'd regret his choice after seeing what's trending on the internet today."

"Trending? What's trending?"

"You have a phone, so take a look yourself."

The woman had a bad feeling about this, and quickly unlocked her phone and scrolled through social media. It seemed that the paparazzi had been following them the whole time last night. There was video footage of them hugging each other as they got into the car, up until Jovan carried her into his home.

To make matters worse, these videos were currently on the top of the current trending articles. Each title was more scandalous than the other. JrNovels.com
