While on the car, Jim's phone rang. It was Miss Maxine. Jim picked it up and turned the speaker on.

"Dr. Wayne, Mr. Nicoleau would like to send you his apologies.There was no way for him to get all the wedding wear done in time. It's because his most experienced workers are on summer vacation."

Mr. Nicoleau was the most famous wedding wear designer in the country. His works were all featured by various famous publications. His schedule was always very tight because of the contracts he got from the socialite families. To get into his schedule, the wealthy clients were competing in raising up the cost. And so did, Jim. Only that he was so fortunate enough that Miss Max was Mr. Nicolaeu's bestfriend and that he, surprisingly, win her favor.

Jia glanced at Jim. He seemed not worried at all. And her presumption was then confirmed.

"It's fine, Miss Max. Two or three months will do. We will hold the distributions of cards until everything will be settled."

Jia felt a sudden weight pressing on her chest. What was on Jim's mind? Yesterday, he talked about fighting with him. When they did the planning, he wanted Miss Max to do the impossible just to get all things done in just a month. Yet, now, he seemed to lose his interest. He did not even consulted her opinion about the postponement of their wedding. However, she had already decided to fight for this. Whatever she would start, she definitely would fight for it to the end!

They were both silent along the way until Jia pulled off in front of Graham's hotel. Seeing that Jim did not move and his thoughts were far away, she touched his chin.

"My love, we're here, " she smiled, amused to see him startled.

Jim looked around and, then, sighed. He hooked an arm around her neck, drew her head closer and then closed her lips with his. It was light and slow at first, but in the next second, became savage and harsh. The more Jia got nervous. He was kissing her as if it was their last!

After few minutes, he released her.

He, then, whispered something into her ears. Her eyes got wide and her heart pounded. She was both relieved and nervous. The show had begun!

Tears stung in her eyes as she watched Jim disappeared. He would soon be meeting with Dr. Grace. After few minutes, she drove out of the hotel's entrance but then she went back and pulled off at the parking lot.

She remained seated for few minutes then immersed herself into deep thoughts. After a long while, she went out of the car and decided to hang out in the hotel's coffee shop. Mr. Wayne would surely not recognize her.

She ordered a cup of Blue Mountain coffee and slowly sipped it while she browsed on his phone. Suddenly, she remembered something!

___

At the reception area, a tall, beautiful and elegant woman in a soft green, mini dress approached the counter. As the receptionist saw her, she smiled and greeted her warmly.

"Miss, I need the card for Room 647." She said in her most captivating smile.

"Sure, ma'am. Mr. Wayne already gave us an instruction. "

---

When Jim entered the lobby, he chose not to claim a swipe card. Dr. Grace was already there so he could just knock on the door. He knew very well that the security measures in a presidential suite was tight but since he was expected, it would not be a trouble.

Just as he anticipated, Dr. Grace immediately opened the door for him. He was, for a moment, stunned at her different aura today. He was used to seeing her in scrub suits and a white coat. However today, she was wearing an emerald green, tightly - hugging, highly above - the - knee dress that revealed her great shape. Paired with gold earrings, an emerald pendant on a gold necklace and a nude strap to a gold high - heeled sandals, she looked so beautiful and elegant.

He gave her a nod and a thin smile as he walked to the nearest couch.

"Why is dad taking so long? " He said to break the awkward atmosphere.

They had been working together for so many years but to be in a place for a personal matter was uncomfortable. Especially, that this meeting was intended for them to establish an intimate relationship. He had been avoiding her from the start despite her constant advances. But now, his dad trapped him in a way he could not refuse.

"He said it's an important matter." Dr.Grace replied.

The intercom suddenly buzzed. They both looked at each other, silently debating who would pick up the call. Jim, eventually, stood up to answer the phone. It was about their food delivery Mr. Wayne had ordered earlier. When he arrived, the food was already arranged in the table by Dr. Grace.

"Son, let us not keep the food waiting. Come over here." Mr. Wayne called Jim up as he saw him browsing on his phone.

Jim slowly walked towards the table and seated himself across Dr.Grace. Mr. Wayne was at the corner, facing both of them.

"Son, I'm happy that you are able to make it. I thought you would find excuses." Mr. Wayne smiled, as he shifted his gaze to both of them.

"We seldomly meet dad so I spare my time for this." He replied while placing some food into his plate.

"I and Dr. Grace had already talked about so many things before you came in."

Dr. Grace smiled as she glanced at Jim. Her earlier conversation with his dad flashed into her mind.

___

"Your grandson is so cute, Mr. Wayne. "

"You met him? "Mr. Wayne was a bit surprised.

"Yes, and also your daughter -in - law." She proudly replied though her heart suddenly bled. How she wished it was her.

To her surprise, Mr. Wayne frowned.

"Is she also beautiful like you? "

"She's more beautiful because she won your son's heart while I don't"

Mr. Wayne chuckled. He was so amused at her being so straightforward and honest.

"It's not too late yet. I'll help you later and in return, help yourself." Mr. Wayne winked at her as he continued to speak.

"I'd be honest with you. Jim told me they are getting married soon. I objected and told him to think about it over. I also told him to give you a chance before finally deciding on the marriage. Hoping he'd change his mind. "

Dr. Grace shuddered. How could he dare to do such thing? His son was no longer a child and could definitely, decide for himself. Worst of all, he seemed to know all about her love for him.

"Sleep with him tonight. You're a doctor and you know what could make you strip him up before he wakes up. Give me the prescription.

I'll go and buy it myself. "

Mr. Wayne was never joking. He knew that, before him, was a sophisticated woman who would do anything to have what she wanted.

"Mr. Wayne.. "

"Right now, Dr. Grace. Don't let this chance slip."

"Dr. Jim will be mad at me. " Grace suddenly felt scared but partly happy.

"If you get pregnant, then perhaps he would change her mind."

Dr. Grace was a brilliant woman. Certainly, not this way, she thought. The plan was so childish and irrational. She was a witness of how much he loved Jia. A night with her would certainly not enough to destroy his marriage plan.

Mr. Wayne seemed to read her mind. "A night with you may not change his mind but would break Jia's heart. The video of your intimate night that I would be sending her and her own insecurities would make her change her mind. As expected, she could not accept Jim's betrayal. He had been so faithful in her eyes."

Mr. Wayne was right. She no longer hesitated as she knew she did not need to pretend before him. She needed not act demurely before him. He already seemed to know that she was capable to do any wicked ways to have what she wanted.

She picked up her bag, pulled out a prescription pad and wrote a prescription. She paused for a while to think what was better for him. Alprazolam 500 mcg or Midazolam?
