Once they arrived at the hospital, the doctor quickly took him into a room to give him treatment. Hazel found a parking spot before she walked into the building to find Alex. A nurse came forward to tell her that the doctor was helping Alex with an antidote and finally, Hazel was able to calm down. 

Taking a deep breath, Hazel sat down on the bench and start to rethink everything that happened.

In the banquet hall, Alex had eaten everything that she had eaten. The only thing that she did not drink was that wine that the basketball captain had offered to her. 

Without a doubt, some drugs were added to the wine and caused Alex to behave strangely.

After giving it some thought, Hazel took out her phone and dialed a number.

The phone call was connected after a few rings.

"Hazel, I heard that you are accompanying your boyfriend to a banquet. How is it? Did you have fun?" Eira's voice was heard as soon as the phone call was connected.

"Eira, I need your help." 

"What's wrong?" Hearing Hazel's serious tone, Eira swiftly dropped her playful tone. 

Hazel quickly told her friend of everything that happened at the hotel and her suspicion that the basketball captain had done something to her drink. "Eira, I need you to check on the security camera and find evidence. Can you help me?"

"Of course I can."

"Thank you." Hazel let out a breath of relief. "Sorry for the trouble."

"Don't say that. That hotel is one of ours. Checking at the security camera isn't anything troubling at all." Eira heaved a heavy breath. Her face turned ugly as Eira thought of what the basketball captain had wanted to do to her friend.

According to Hazel's words, she was unaware that Kevin would show up at the banquet. It seemed that carrying a drug with him had become a habit. Or else, Kevin would not conveniently have a drug with him as no one was aware that Hazel was going to show up at the banquet.

"Look. I'll give them a call right now and get back to you once I found out anything," Eira said.

"Un. Thank you."

"How about you? Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. I'm at the hospital, waiting for Alex to come out." Hazel rubbed at her head. "He should be fine after a while." 

"If you need anything, tell me. I'll be here for you."

The girls chatted for a while before Hazel hung up. Then, Hazel called Crystal to brief her on what happened and informed her roommate that she was not going back to the dormitory.

Seeing that Alex had come out of the treatment room, Hazel stood up swiftly and walked over to him. Her steps halted as she got nearer. Hazel gave him a look over and a breath of relief escaped her once she saw that his face was no longer as red and his gaze had turned sharper.

"Are you alright?" Hazel asked. She walked over and helped him to sit down on the bench. "How are you feeling? Better?"

"I'm fine." His heart warmed when he saw her concern. Alex forced a smile and spoke, "The doctor said I need to stay at the hospital for an observation for twenty-four hours."

At this time, a nurse came out to explain to him about the procedure. Hazel listened attentively and turned to Alex again. "You stay here for a while. Let me deal with your hospitalization."

Alex nodded obediently and watched as she left. Once Hazel was no longer within his eyesight, Alex pulled out his phone and dialed a number. 

"Alex," Daniel spoke as soon as the phone call was connected. "I did as you told and apologized to them. But what happened to you?"

Alex briefed what happened before he gave him a few instructions. When he finally hung up, there was a dark look on his face. The doctor's words repeated in his mind.

Whatever drug that person had added into the wine... it had an aphrodisiac effect. After consuming it once, there might be a chance that one might be depending on it. Like any other drug, once a person became dependent on it, it would only be damaging to one's body.

He could not imagine what would happen to Hazel if she was the one who had drank that wine, and he was not around her. 

It seemed that the boy harbored an evil intention towards his girlfriend and Alex was not planning to let that boy from escaping.

…

Hazel adjusted the pillow under him and let Alex lay down comfortably. Just as she was pulling up his blanket to cover his body, Alex stretched his hand and grabbed her wrist.

Their gaze met and the couple looked at each other in silence.

"Sit down." Alex heaved a soft breath when Hazel did not react. "I'm fine. I'm not hurt or disabled. You don't have to do things for me." He flashed her a smile. 

Hazel hesitated before she leaned into him and laid her head on his chest. Her breathing gradually calmed down as she continued to listen to his heartbeat.

She could not describe the fear when she saw how Alex had behaved strangely. His gaze was misty and his temperature high. The way Alex had kissed her was rough and she could sense his desire.

If she had not learned that move to protect herself, there was no doubt that the two might do something in the parking lot. Her face grew sullen as Hazel thought of what might happen.

The two of them has been seeing each other for months and Hazel had long prepared herself that something might happen between them. However, that was not how she wanted it to happen.

Once Alex told her that the drink had been spiked, her heart turned cold. Hazel had driven past the limit to reach the hospital as soon as she can and perhaps, his car would receive a few speeding tickets tomorrow.

"Sorry," Hazel whispered. "It was because of me. If you did not drink that wine—"

"Why are you blaming yourself? It's not your fault," Alex spoke before she could finish her words. "It was that boy's fault."

He would gladly drink that wine for her. Alex could not imagine what he would do if it was Hazel who had drunk that wine. He would probably go ballistic right then, right there. 

That person must be crazy to dare and harm his precious girl. 

Alex ran his fingers in her hair. He was relieved to find that his girl had not tried to avoid him after what had happened. When he recalled what had happened in the car park area, Alex's expression grew solemn. 

"Did I scare you earlier?" Alex bit at his lips when she did not answer. "Sorry. I lost control of myself."

Hazel sniffled. She lifted her head and wiped at her tears. "I don't blame you. It was just as you said. It was his fault. Don't worry.. I won't let him get away."
