Chapter 590
Dwight pressed his lips together, gently removing Jenson’s hand from his shoulder. “I should go home.”
He made a move to turn and leave.
Rachel froze for a moment, then, she suddenly called out, “Dwight”
Jenson stepped forward, concern in his voice, “You’ve already beet drugged. Why are you trying to leave? I’ll have someone take you and my daughter to the hotel,”
Dwight shook his head. “Ne, I’m good.”
Rachel’s face paled at the rejection. She was stunning, with a body to match, and had admirers lining up. Yet, despite all that, she had fallen for Dwight, a guy with nothing to his name.
She had been so forward and made her intentions clear every step of the way. She couldn’t understand why he would refuse her. Wasn’t she the one with something to lose?
Jenson looked at Dwight, confused. “What’s going on? Rachel’s your girlfriend, and you’re engaged. You’re just having a little head start tonight. Why are you making such a big deal about it?”
His gaze turned suspicious as he looked Dwight up and down.
Are you not serious about my daughter? Have you been lying to me?”
“Dad, Dwight’s not like that. He’s very good to me!” Rachel quickly defended Dwight.

Dwight glanced at Rachel and then took her hand in his. “Mr. Field it’s not what you think.”
“That’s good to hear,” Jenson said, his tone lightening. “Dwight, Ireally value you. I consider you like a son already. Let me tell you something–just a few days from now, some important people from up top will be coming to Hovendale. No one knows their exact whereabouts, but since I’m sharing this with you, you should know how much I trust you. If you and Rachel take things to the next level, I’ll take you to meet them.”
A sudden thrill raced through Dwight’s chest. He had waited so long for this moment. He was finally going to meet that person!
But the price for this meeting was clear–he had to spend the night with Rachel.
Jenson opened the back door of the car. “Get in.”
He had already made it clear–it was Dwight’s choice whether to get in the car or not.
Dwight could feel the heat building in his body, waves of it rushing through him. The effects of the drug were strong. He paused for a moment, and then, with a resigned sigh, he got into the car with Rachel.
Rachel smiled, a glimmer of excitement in her eyes.
“That’s the spirit,” Jenson said with a satisfied grin. “From now on, we’re family.”
He then turned to the driver. “Take Rachel and my future son–in–law to the hotel.”
The driver nodded, bowing slightly. “Don’t worry, Mr. Field. I’ll make sure they get there safely.”
With a click, Jenson shut the door, and the luxury car sped off.
Soon, Dwight and Rachel arrived at a six–star hotel’s presidential suite. Several men in black stood guard outside the door- Jenson’s people, of course.
One of the men opened the door with a respectful nod. “Please, go in and rest. We’ll be outside keeping watch. No one will bother you tonight.”
Rachel’s cheeks were flushed with anticipation as she entered the room with Dwight, then closed the door behind them.
