Even Loredana didn’t trust him.
Loredana started walking again, walking with light steps on the roadside.
“Probably that is life.” She also smiled. “I have planned to accept you. After all, we’ve known each other for almost ten years…”
Because of Maxina and the way he’d been taking care of her, she had considered about it.
Who would predict that Helen White would become his younger sister – Maria Herbert?
Sampson grabbed her hand, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly. “She and I are different persons. You can’t deny me just because of her. This is unfair to me.”
“But she’s your biological younger sister. Do you still think it’s alright?” She knew he was deceiving himself as well as others by saying that.
“Just because she had set you up, do you want to deny me and my love to you?” Sampson asked in an almost interrogation way.
Loredana didn’t explain.
She never denied him.
She just clearly understood that she couldn’t be together with Sampson based on this kind of relationship.
It was he who couldn’t see it through.
“What if I don’t want to be your brother but your beloved man only?” Sampson looked at her shadow, which was entangled with the tree shadows illuminated by the street lamps. It was difficult to differentiate her shadow from those of the trees.
His eyes gradually got more and more darkened, as if he had made up a decision. “I can agree, but you should go for a drink with me tonight. I’m not in a good mood.”
“It’s really late.” Loredana tried to refuse.
“I just want to have a drink with you. Can’t you do it? Do you really have to alienate me in this way?”
Sampson held up her face.
He looked into her eyes and made her look into his.
If he could understand and let go in this way, Loredana would be willing to. Hence, she agreed.
“All right.”
“I know a quiet place.” Sampson pulled her hand.
Loredana was almost dragged forward by him.
After sitting in his car, Sampson gave her a bottle of water. “Your lips are quite dry.”
He started the engine.
Loredana raised her hand to touch her lips – they were all right. Since she was not thirsty, she didn’t drink the water in her hands.
Driving on the road steadily, Sampson looked aside and took a glance at her. “What now? You don’t even drink my water. Are you afraid I’ll drug you?”
“What are you talking about? I’m just not thirsty.” Loredana opened the bottle cap and took a sip – it was just the taste of the ordinary mineral water. She closed the cap. “Does this work?”
Sampson didn’t answer, just concentrating on driving.
If she would study his expression carefully, she would definitely the popping blue veins on his temples.
Soon the car stopped in front of a private club.
Sampson got off first. He walked to her side and opened the door for her.
“I can get off myself.”
Sampson held her hand. Feeling that Loredana was about to retreat, he gripped her more tightly. “Just for once. Please allow me to hold your hand as holding my girlfriend. After tonight, it would be good if you still could take me as your older brother. If not-”
“What are you talking about? It sounds like you want to break up with me.” Loredana found that
Sampson behaved quite strangely today.
However, she couldn’t tell clearly what made her felt so.
Sampson laughed.
If he really raped her, she would definitely break up with him according to her personality.
She wouldn’t still like him just as Maria had said.
If it really counted, she should keep the first man who had sex with her in her mind all the lifetime, shouldn’t she?
Thinking of Loredana’ first man, Sampson’s heart tightened suddenly.
Holding her hand tightly, his inner voice said, ‘Loredana, you can’t blame me.’
This place wasn’t like a bar or a restaurant. It was decorated luxuriously and clean, with one or two people passing by occasionally.
Loredanas was puzzled, “What kind of place is this?”
“A bar.” Sampson was pulling her towards the private room at the end of the corridor.
Loredana frowned, “Rarely have I seen such quiet bar.”
“This is a private bar and it’s not open to the public, just only to some people.” Sampson explained, “It’s quiet here.”
“Oh.”
They reached the private room in just a moment, and Sampson pushed the door open. The room was large and a bit dull with its warm yellow light. At the back, there was a black leather sofa. There was a round table at the front, with two bottles of red wine and two glasses on it.
Loredana looked at Sampson, “You arranged this in advance?”
Sampson was stiff for a moment, but he replied naturally, “I’m a VIP guest here and this is my reserved private room. The wine was stored here by me too.”
Loredana walked into the room, “I remember that you don’t like drinking wine.”
Sampson stood at the door, looking at Loredana’s slim back, and fell into a trance for a second, “People always change, isn’t it? I’m a human too, and I do have emotions and desires too. I’ll be sad too for falling in love with the person I can’t have.”
There was overtone in his conversation.
Loredana got the meaning of Sampson’s words.
She pretended to be casual while glancing around the room. She reached out to touch the lampshade, knock on the wine bottle, and fiddle with the goblet. “There are thousands of people in the world and it is fate that brings them to meet. And some of them are even not meant to be. There’s a saying that goes ‘If it’s meant to be, it will be’.”
Sampson looked down and smiled, “You’re always being eloquent, not giving me a single chance. Do you show respect to elders?”
Loredana turned around, smiling at him, “You’re not old. To me, you’re always the one wearing white coat with glasses, always asking about Jeremy’s condition. And you always take care of me like a big brother. I remember it all.”
Sampson opened the wine and poured it out, “Let’s not talk about the past.”
He was afraid that he would be soft-hearted and couldn’t lay a hand on her.
However, without ruining her, Maria Herbert and Cormac Mendelsohn would never be together. And their marriage wouldn’t be able to give the Herbert family a promising future.
Sampson poured two glasses of wine, “Stop looking around. Come and have a drink with me.”
Loredana sat on the sofa and held the wine that Sampson poured for her up. The wine had a bright red colour as well as a mellow scent. It was a fine red wine. Sampson held his own wine glass and clinked it against hers with a crisp sound, “Let’s paint the town red today.”
“I’m not really good at drinking. I can’t get wasted with you. I need to get back early too. Simona can’t leave me.” It was always Loredana who put Simona Flores to bed. Without Loredana at night, it might bother Maxina Lennon.
Sampson didn’t reply, but he lifted his head and gulped down the wine.
He held his empty glass and showed it to Loredana, “I’ve finished it. Your turn.”
Loredana had no choice but to drink it.
Red wine was different from a white wine which burned. Red wine was milder and wouldn’t feel uncomfortable with it.
Sampson poured her some wine again, “This is the first time the two of us drinking wine in such a quiet place.”
“Mm.” Loredana lowered her eyes and stared at Sampson, pouring the wine. Her vision was a bit blurry.
She blinked her eyes and said, “Yeah, but this wine is very strong.”
Sampson looked at her and asked, “Is it?”
“Yes.” Loredana felt dizzy.
“Would it be an excuse for not wanting to drink with me?” Sampson said deliberately.
“No, no.” Loredana rubbed her forehead. That dizzy feeling didn’t disappear but getting worse.
Sampson handed her the glass filled with wine, “Don’t you try to fool me. You said that you would accompany and drink with me.”
Loredana tried to open her eyes to look at Sampson, but her vision was still blurry.
She drank another glass under Sampson’s urging.
Sampson continued to pour the wine for her.
“I can’t have it anymore. I’m really getting drunk. I need to go back now. Samuel and Simona are still waiting for me at home.” Loredana stood up as she talked. She stumbled a few steps before she totally lost her consciousness and fell onto the ground.
Sampson was sitting still on the sofa for that whole situation. He seemed to know that Loredana couldn’t walk out of the room.
He finished his wine and placed the glass down. He then stood up, carried Loredana who had fainted on the floor, and put her on the sofa.
She was slim and very light. Sampson barely needed any effort to lift her up.
He placed Loredana down and sat beside her, fondling her hair, “Don’t blame me. You’re the one that force me to do this.”
It was all planned before they came.
Just that, he was still lack of confidence doing it. He was forced to come by Maria Herbert.
But after hearing Loredana’s words, he had no hesitation anymore.
He gently caressed her face, “You don’t even care about me anymore. Why should I care about you too?”
Loredana had lost her consciousness and couldn’t hear any of his words.
Sampson unbuttoned her clothes one by one, exposing her fair and smooth skin. He was caressing her cheek, her neck…
He gulped.
“I know that you will hate me when you wake up. I have no choice. The mineral water that I gave you was added chemical. There’s no going back for you now. Neither do I.” The mineral water had added a medicine that increased the movements of the stomach. And the red wine had very high alcohol content too. When consumed together, it would lead to a coma easily.
Even if someone found out, they would just conclude that she was drunk only.
Loredana’s blouse was untied. The black brassiere was wrapping her full and round breasts. Her chest moved up and down as she breathed. It was tempting.
Her stomach was flat with a few stretch marks under the navel, which were left when she conceived
Samuel and Simona.
The two children were born small. So the stretch marks on her weren’t noticeable, not like tiger stripes which were horrifying. Hers were paler, not ugly to look at, and a bit sexy too.
Sampson’s big hand was caressing Loredana’s belly, “Maria said that women are perceptual. They will have feelings for the first man that get laid with them. If you know that the person was Cormac Mendelsohn, will you fall in love with him?”
“Nope, you’ve moved, aren’t you?” Sampson lowered his head and laughed deeply, “When Cormac saw you, he called off his engagement with Maria. However, you had been reluctant to come back. But after you met Cormac, you came back. Was it for him?”
Cormac leaned over and kissed Loredana’s lips, “This is the first time kissing you and you didn’t refuse me.”
Whenever Sampson kissed Loredana, she would reject him at that crucial moment.
He knew that Loredana was rejecting him for getting closer.
Because of disliking him, even if she agreed to, her body was resisting it too.
Sampson whispered into her ear, “Maybe Maria was right. Even if you didn’t know which was Cormac, but since you two had a roll in the hay, you would have feeling for him, even if it is subconsciously.”
“But, what if I do it with you too, would you have feelings for me too? Lola…”
As Sampson said, he unbuttoned her pants.
And he pulled down the zipper.
