John smiled faintly. Then, they walked into the dining hall together.

The manager and the servers followed behind as they made their way into the hall.

John and Sheri sat in the middle of the hall.

Then, the manager winked at the musician, and a melodious sound of a piano was played. 

Soon, the dining table was served with delicious delicacies and birthday cake.

The candle lights flickered, and fresh flowers were in sight, making the atmosphere absolutely beautiful.

After that, John took the lead and picked up his chopsticks. “Let’s eat.”

.

Sherri was overjoyed. This was her first time eating alone with John since they got engaged.

She looked at the handsome and charming man sitting opposite her, and she was determined to win him over.

Guise? Obedience? Screw those.

At this moment, she only wanted to be this man’s only woman.

She put on the gloves, cracked the Alaskan king crab, and placed the crab meat on his plate.

“John, have some seafood. Their crab here is delicious!”

“Sure.” John looked at the crab meat on his plate and nodded lightly. Then, he reluctantly ate it.

His mind was filled with the images of that little brat peeling him shrimps…

Sherri noticed that the man was dazed, so she quickly raised her glass. “John, let’s have a toast. Thank you for celebrating my birthday with me.”

John did not answer her, but he raised his glass and finished the wine.

Next, Sherri cut a small slice of cake and gave it to John. “John, have some cake.”

John replied coldly, “I don’t like to eat dessert!” 

“Just have a bite. It’s my birthday after all!”

Then, she bent over and leaned against John’s body, bringing a spoonful of cake to his mouth. Seeing this, John frowned deeper.

Sheeri had no choice but to eat it herself as she did not want to upset him.

Jazz music was playing in the background. 

Sherri stood, and she beamed. “John, let’s have a dance.”

Next, she pulled John’s hand and walked toward the red carpet.

The servers at the side instantly looked at John’s leg. His legs were perfectly straight, and he walked with steady steps.

No matter how they looked at it, the man, the most influential person in Hillford, did not seem as though he was disabled. Moreover, they could not tell that he lost his leg and was wearing a prosthetic leg.

Even though he was eccentric, ruthless, and unfriendly, he was still every woman’s Prince Charming.

Under the beautiful melody, John forced himself to grab Sherri’s waist and walked toward the center of the dance floor. 

John was tall and handsome, whereas Sherri, dressed in an evening gown, had porcelain skin and a graceful figure.

The beautiful pair held hands, and they really appeared as if they were a match made in heaven.

“Look! Mr. Lambert and Ms. Millan looked so good together! They’re such a match!”

“That’s right. The two of them could dance so gracefully. It felt like they’re an actual prince and princess!”

“I’m so envious of Ms. Millan for having Mr. Lambert as her fiance! He’s such an outstanding man!”

The servers at the side could not help but be jealous.

Following the dance routine, John moved close toward Sherri and smelled the pungent perfume scent on her.

He frowned once again and peeped at Sherri. In the end, he chose to bear the acrid smell.

The lights on the dance floor undulated with the music rhythm, causing them to appear more flamboyant when they waltzed.

John did a small turn, and Sherri gently fell into his embrace.

He once again raised his hand, and Sherri twirled twice, failing into his embrace once again.

As they were dancing along to the symphonic music, the air was filled with a subtle fragrance. John pulled one of her hands, and the two of them swirled and twirled. When their eyes met, Sherri only had love and adoration in her eyes.

Under the dim and gentle light, Sherri raised her head and looked at John’s handsome face with eyes full of love.

Soon, the music ended, and the servers gave them a round of enthusiastic applause.

After that, John and Sherri went back to their seats.

He finished the wine in his glass and glanced at his watch, saying, “Alright. It’s getting late. I’m leaving first.”

“You’re leaving so soon?” Sherri tugged on his hand, softly pleading, “I want you to keep me company!”

“It’s getting late. I should go home”!

“I want to go home with you!”

John turned to Sherri, and his gaze was profound.

Sherri murmured, “John, you’re twenty-six this year, and I’m not a child anymore! I… I want to be your woman. I want to be your wife.”

When John heard this, his expression darkened. “Sherri, you’ve always been an obedient girl. As long as you do your role well and act accordingly, we can live together peacefully, and we’ll definitely get married. Nonetheless, don’t dream about things you shouldn’t be expecting.”

John immediately stood up, took his shirt, and was about to leave.

Sherri gritted her teeth and threw herself into his embrace, wrapping her arms around John’s waist. The fresh and aromatic male odor rushed into her nose.

Sherri was happy. “John, it’s my birthday today. Just promise me this. I really want to be your woman!”

John pushed her away.

However, he again caught a whiff of her perfume, and he felt nauseous, and his head hurt a little. Even his body was starting to get warmer.

John instantly felt that something was up.

His expression changed, and he glared at Sherri, “What did you do to me?”

Sherri realized the subtle change in his expression, and she hurriedly shook her head. “I didn’t do anything. It’s just that my perfume has ylang-ylang in it…”

In fact, Sherri was really good at blending perfume. She knew what type of fragrance would make people enamored, which were ylang-ylang and clary sage.

Since she did not dare to drug John, she thought of using perfume instead.

Only a few people could restrain themselves from acting impulsively after smelling this perfume.

John turned livid, and he pushed her away forcefully. “Get lost!”

“John, you… I didn’t do anything! I booked a room here. Let me carry you there, and you can get some rest.”

John glared at Sherri with bloodshot eyes, and he pushed him away ruthlessly, getting ready to leave. 

Nevertheless, Sherri blocked him again. “John, you’ll only feel uncomfortable if you resist it. Why don’t you just take me?” 

She raised her head and begged pitifully, “I’m your fiancee, and I can help you with this!”

John flew into a rage, and his obsidian eyes were flickering with a cold and fierce light. He grabbed Sherri’s chin and spoke through gritted teeth, “You’re the daughter of the Millan family, yet you could do such a despicable thing just to get in my bed. Is this how your father raised you?”

His grip was so strong that he almost broke Sherr’s chin. It hurt so bad that Sherri was crying. “John, it hurts…”

John tossed Sherri aside and looked at the woman indifferently. He initially wanted to celebrate her birthday with her, but he had not expected that the woman was so heinous, and he really wished he could strangle her to death.

Nonetheless, the heat in his body was making it harder for him to control himself.

He swiftly took his coat and strode out.

Seeing that, Sherri hurriedly chased after him. “John, don’t go! You’ll get in trouble if you leave!”

“Get lost!” John had not even turned to look at her and left directly.

Sherri watched as John left, and she clenched her fists. She flew into a rage and overturned the table. The dishes and cake on the table all fell to the ground with a crashing sound.
