Chapter 104 Already Asleep

Joseph's private villa was halfway up the mountain. Nancy half-dragged, half-carried him through the door. The maid waiting by the entrance hurried over to help, though she didn't look surprised. It wasn't a shock that Joseph brought women home. Still, the woman looked familiar. After a moment, the maid recalled that he had brought her here once before. Keeping her thoughts to herself, the maid steadied Joseph with practiced efficiency and helped carry him into the master bedroom. Nancy dropped him onto the soft, oversized bed and exhaled heavily, exhausted. What rotten luck. Of all people, she had to be stuck dealing with this man. On the bed, Joseph kept shifting restlessly, his body blazing hot like a furnace. His lips moved in a half-conscious murmur. Nancy didn't bother to listen. She only wanted to deal with this mess quickly. She pulled a small kit from her bag and took out a fine silver needle. With a precise flick of her fingers, she inserted it into the side of his neck.
