Chapter 533
Michael stared at the incense burner, his brows knitted tightly.
The scent from the censer was distinctly off. Unlike the usual light fragrance, it smelled heavy and overpowering
All incense in the shore family was uniformly procured, with meticulous records maintained for every wing and courtyard
If the incense had been changed, he would certainly have known
Realizing the cause of his erratic state. Michael abruptly turned to Willow, his wore heavy with fury as he demanded, “What did you put in this canser?”
Willow’s heart hammered in her chest, her face turning deathly pale.
Michael’s piercing gaze sent chills down Willow’s spine. The Osborne family was no ordinary family. Thair power and influence were formidable
The Osborne family utterly abhored women resorting to such underhanded schemes.
But she was left with no choice, desperation drove her to play this dangerous game.
Willow thought bitterly. “Michael only has eyes for Athena. If I don’t resort to this, when will I ever conceive his heir?”
Willow’s eyes were brimming with tears as she gazed at Michael with feigned vulnerability. She stubbornly refused to admit anything. “My lord i don’t know what you’re talking about”
“Are you truly ignorant, or just pretending to be?” Michael demanded, seeing right through her act
A suffocating feeling swelled in Michael’s chest. He had trusted Willow so deeply and had always protected her since they were children.
Michael thought, “What has she done?
She actually laced the room with aphrodisiac incense.
Only prostitutes would stoop to such vile tricks. For a woman of her noble birth to resort to this kind of depravity is utterly beneath contempt.
‘What difference is there between her and those prostitutes?”
“Speak!” Michael thundered, his fury escalating at her continued denial.
He couldn’t help but tighten his grip around Willow’s wrist.
Willow cried out from the pain, tears streaming down her face.“Honey, I truly don’t know. Please, believe me.
Michael was already on the verge of collapse, and now, completely at the mercy of the aphrodisiac incense, his body no longer obeyed his will
With a violent shove, Michael sent Willow flying. She crashed heavily into the corner of the table before curling into a fetal position in
Dizziness
However,
washed uver Michael in waves. Clutching his head, he staggered toward the door
He knew th effects of the aphrodisiac incghter were nearly impossible to resist, Walking out like this would be courting disaster

“Get away. Just get away. Michael rasped, his voice hoarse with strain as he showed Willow aside once more.
