Natalie Vaughn was drugged and sedated, resulting in a deep, prolonged sleep. Zane Thorne stayed by her side, never leaving, nor sleeping.
He received a call from Quentin Donovan.
"That man started in the building materials business, named Liam Archer. He moved into real estate a few years ago, and that's when his fortunes changed. I had someone look into him, and he has a kink."
Quentin Donovan paused at this point.
"He's likely used that drug many times before. Originally, he planned to involve both Nina and Serena Blackwood... However, Nina smashed his head, preventing him from succeeding."
"It was Serena Blackwood who approached Liam Archer voluntarily, telling him Nina was her sister, a newcomer in the entertainment industry. Liam Archer thought Nina was there to climb the ranks."
"The plan with the restroom was Serena Blackwood's idea. She hadn't imagined Liam Archer would be so crazy, directly locking her to the bed after booking a room."
