Chapter 341 Lucy's Scheming
The Clark Group's 50th-anniversary dinner celebration was held in the banquet hall of the hotel owned by the Clark Group.
Lucy arrived at the banquet hall early, her eyes constantly looking towards the entrance, waiting for the man she had been thinking about to arrive.
"Lucy, don't worry, Mr. Fisher will be here soon," Grace noticed Lucy's nervousness and comforted her.
"Is everything ready?" Lucy glanced at Grace.
"Of course, everything is ready. Don't worry." Grace smiled.
"Okay." Lucy nodded slightly.
At that moment, someone shouted, "Mr. Fisher, Mr. Fisher is here!"
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the entrance of the banquet hall.
William, dressed in a black custom-made suit, tall and upright, with features as if sculpted by God himself, exuded a powerful aura that made it impossible to look away.
Lucy's eyes were fixed on the high and mighty man, her heart inexplicably skipping a beat.
As long as the plan went smoothly tonight, this outstanding man would be hers.
Thinking of this, Lucy couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart.
William walked into the banquet hall with steady steps, immediately surrounded by several reporters.
"Mr. Fisher, are you attending the banquet alone today? Didn't you bring a date?"
"Mr. Fisher, you didn't bring Ms. Scott with you. Does that mean you two have broken up?"
"Are you with Angel now? Can you tell us a bit about it?"
Facing the reporters' barrage of questions, William's handsome face turned a bit colder. He said indifferently, "Sorry, no interviews."
Seeing this, Lucy quickly walked towards William. "William, you're here."
William glanced at her expressionlessly and nodded slightly.
"My brother is over there. Let me take you to him." Lucy looked at William with undisguised affection.
"I'll go by myself." William's face remained cold.
At 7:00 sharp, the banquet began on time.
Even though it was the Clark Group's 90th-anniversary celebration, William was still the center of attention.
No matter where he went, people would come up to flatter him and try to make connections.
After all, the Fisher Group was the top elite family in Ravenford. Gaining William's favor could bring enormous benefits.
Such an honor was something everyone desired.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, William drank a few glasses of wine and began to feel a slight headache. He went to the second-floor lounge to rest for a while.
Seeing this, Grace quickly sent a text message to Lucy: [It's time.]
Receiving the message, Lucy's heart skipped a beat.
She picked up a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
Feeling her body heat up, Lucy walked towards the second-floor lounge.
At the lounge door, Lucy took a few deep breaths before pushing the door open.
Inside the lounge, William was lying on the couch.
He felt dizzy and a strange heat all over his body.
His alcohol tolerance wasn't this bad.
Realizing there must have been something wrong with the wine, William rubbed his temples, his face turning cold.
William sent a text message to Peter and was about to stand up and leave when the lounge door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. A slim, scantily clad woman walked in.
He squinted slightly and saw who it was. "Lucy?"
Seeing William's flushed face, his black suit jacket already removed, and a few buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his firm chest, Lucy's eyes were fixed on the man on the couch. What a strong and powerful body must be under those clothes.
Just thinking about it made her blood boil.
Lucy couldn't help but swallowed a few times, her heart starting to race.
She sat down next to William, her eyes filled with tenderness. "William, I'm so hot."
As she spoke, Lucy began to take off her clothes, pressing herself against William.
"What are you doing?" William grabbed Lucy's hand.
Feeling the burning temperature of William's hand, Lucy was secretly delighted.
William was indeed drugged.
Once the drug took full effect, he wouldn't be able to control himself.
"I don't know what's wrong with me either. I'm so hot and uncomfortable," Lucy deliberately responded, whispering in William's ear.
Lucy knew William wasn't someone easily fooled.
If William found out she had drugged him, he wouldn't let it go.
So Lucy had already planned it out. She had taken the same drug herself, making herself appear as a victim too.
By then, even if William pursued the matter, she would just be a victim, not doing it on purpose.
With the pressure from the Clark Family, William would have to take responsibility and marry her.
Thinking of this, Lucy couldn't hold back any longer.
The drug in her system was also starting to take effect.
Lucy's hands moved to William's chest, feeling the burning temperature as she began to unbutton the remaining buttons.
The woman's hands on his chest stirred a strange impulse within William, but he couldn't suppress.
"You dare drug me!" William suppressed the heat within him, questioning in a deep voice.
His forehead veins bulged, and his fists clenched tightly.
He hadn't expected the person who drugged him to be Lucy.
The heiress of the Clark family, using such despicable means.
"I didn't." Lucy trembled all over seeing William like this.
"I don't know what's wrong with me either. I'm so hot. Are you feeling the same?" Lucy was surprised by William's self-control. Even at this point, he could still hold back.
She didn't believe any man could resist such temptation under the influence of the drug.
Thinking this, Lucy pressed herself against William again.
She wrapped her arms around William's neck, her red lips moving towards his.
The drug's effect in William's body grew stronger, making him extremely uncomfortable.
The woman in front of him gradually turned into the alluring image of Margaret.
He called out in a low, deep voice, "Margaret."
Lucy was stunned, and she didn't expected William was thinking of Margaret at this moment.
A surge of inexplicable anger rose within her. Lucy bit her lip, telling herself that even if William mistook her for Margaret, it didn't matter.
As long as they had sex, she would be the hostess of the Fisher Family.
