Chapter 54 Unveiled Desires

• Blade confidently approached the table, his steps deliberate and purposeful. His eyes locked onto his partner, observing the furrowed brow and frustrated expression that adorned her face. Sensing her distress, he spoke up, concern etched in his voice, "You appear to be upset. Is everything alright?"

The images that flashed before his eyes seemed distorted, making it difficult to grasp the full extent of what had occurred. He confessed, "I woke up this morning with a pounding headache and learned that I had consumed excessive alcohol, leading to a self-induced stupor. Can you shed some light on what happened?"
