Chapter 249 Getting Emrys Drunk
“I understand, I understand!”
Cold sweat trickled down from Erwin’s forehead as he hastily spoke with a nod,
He handed the Black Dragon Token to Emrys, primarily out of self–interest. On one hand, he was
concerned that his reckless subordinates might clash with Emrys. On the other hand, he simply didn’t
want to burden himself.
Otherwise, every time there was a conflict, he would have to rush over to apologize, an act that was a
tiring burden.
At first glance, Mr. Lund isn’t someone good at staying out of trouble!
Thereafter, the two arrived at the Balford residence.
”
Roger warmly welcomed Emrys into the house, subtly winking at Jacqueline as he did so. Jacqueline
immediately understood his intentions. Turning to Emrys, she smiled and said, “I’ve worked up quite a
sweat from the journey. I’m going to take a bath!”
Emrys was at a loss for words.
“This is your home. You can take a bath whenever you want,” he said. Somehow, it felt like she was
deliberately trying to seduce him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmrys saw right through Jacqueline’s motive at once.
Roger handed a set of keys to Emrys, smiling as he said, “Dr. Lund, I know that you will be teaching
traditional medicine knowledge at Jazona University in the coming days. Since you will be finishing
classes late into the night, so I’ve rented an apartment for you at Lommore Condominium. I’ve also
prepared all the daily necessities for you.”
He had helped Emrys rent an apartment, specifically unit 502 in Lommore Condominium.
Coincidentally, unit 501 was Jacqueline’s.
Most of the time, Jacqueline would stay at home, but sometimes, when she had to work late, she would
stay at Lommore Condominium near the university.
Roger’s agenda was very clear from his actions.
Naturally, he hoped that the two of them would have more opportunities to be alone together. Ideally,
they would gradually end up sharing a room.
Emrys asked with a surprised expression, “Mr. Balford, how did you know that my classes were in the
evening?”
Emrys had two large classes each week, which were held on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from seven to
nine in the evening. Since it was a traditional medicine short course, it couldn’t be slotted into the
students‘ regular class time.
Moreover, Jazona University did not offer a medical major, so naturally, Emrys could not possibly treat
1/2
his course as a specialized one. He wouldn’t delve into too much detail, at most promoting some
concepts of traditional nicdicine, fostering interest in the subject by letting the students know that the
traditional medicine of Chanaea was incredibly powerful.
“Ahem Jacqueline told me about it,” Roger said awkwardly, coughing to hide his embarrassment. Of
course, he couldn’t possibly tell Emrys that the suggestion to schedule the class in the evening was
actually made by him to Desmond.
Emrys understood his intentions all too well, but he couldn’t be bothered to call it out. Accepting the set
of keys, he said, “Alright then, since you’ve already rented the apartment, I suppose I’ll move in!”
He had an old–fashioned bike, so even after finishing his classes, it wouldn’t take him much time to
rush back to Jadeborough. However, keeping the keys wasn’t a bad idea either. He could use it if it was
too late to go back, as he didn’t want to disturb the ladies‘ rest.
Upon seeing Emrys accept the key, Roger was overjoyed. In fact, he had already given the spare key
to Jacqueline, allowing her to enter Emrys‘ room at any time, under the guise of an accidental intrusion.

Roger laughed heartily and said, “Haha, Dr. Lund, it’s been quite a while since we last had a drink
during the charity auction. How about we have some wine today?”
“Since you’re in such high spirits, Mr. Balford, I suppose I must oblige.” Emrys nodded in agreement.
Roger turned around and brought out a bottle of strong liquor, clearly intending to get Emrys drunk. As
soon as Emrys thought of Jacqueline going to take a bath, he immediately realized what they were up
to–they were planning to get him to sleep with Jacqueline.
Emrys found the situation amusing and decided to prank the father–daughter duo. So, for every toast
Roger proposed, he accepted it. Before long, he pretended to be dizzy and slumped onto the table.
Roger sighed and said, “Dr. Lund really can’t hold his liquor. It seems he won’t be able to return home
today…”
This was far from a lament. Instead, it was an indication of his triumph and joy.
Emrys‘ head was resting on the coffee table when he slightly turned it to glance to the side. The sight
before him caused his heart to skip a beat. There was a pair of long legs, so fair and tender, that
caused his eyes to be mesmerized.
