Chapter 354 354 Another Drug
He signaled to a servant to serve them drinks, a subtle acknowledgment of the gravity of their conversation. "Bring something cold for the madam," he instructed the servant.
"Yes, master," the servant responded and hastily went to fulfill the request.
"As I was saying," Reaves continued, his tone becoming more contemplative, "I truly understand how tough it must have been, and I am sure you understand why I couldn't do anything at that time." He sought understanding, perhaps a form of forgiveness for his perceived nonchalance during their time of need. Madeline, however, was not dwelling on past grievances; she had moved beyond that.
"Oh, I understand, Reaves," she said with a reassuring smile. "It must have been hard for you to stay back when I knew you wanted to help," she added, trying to cast him in a favorable light.
"Exactly, Madeline," Reaves replied, visibly pleased that she was willing to see his perspective. "I would have helped, but my hands were literally tied," he explained, offering a justification that Madeline didn't scrutinize too closely. The past was water under the bridge for her.
"Anyways, Reaves, that is not what brought me here today," she said, steering the conversation away from historical wounds. "As I said, that is all in the past," she continued, maintaining a friendly tone as she looked at him.
"Oh, really?" Reaves said, genuinely curious. "What then is she here for?" he pondered silently. "Has she come to plead with me to help her reclaim the land they had stolen from her?" he speculated.
"I have come for something more important," Madeline announced, and Reaves leaned in, intrigued by the mystery unfolding.
"Oh, Madeline, hope it is not to plead that the clans return your land," he voiced his speculation, acknowledging the ongoing feud.
"That is not it, Reaves," Madeline chuckled, waving away any concerns about the stolen lands. "What I have come for is even better, and it is for you specifically," she revealed, a mischievous glint in her eye that sparked Reaves's curiosity even further.
This spiked Reave's interest even more. "Oh, really?" he inquired, leaning in closer to catch every word. "What is it?" he asked, genuinely intrigued by the promise of something beneficial and exclusive.
"Where is your wife, first of all?" Madeline whispered, her voice carrying a confidential tone. Reaves, slightly perplexed by the sudden hushed conversation, played along and answered, "She is inside taking a rest."
"Good," Madeline responded, leaning even closer and lowering her voice further. "I have something I think would benefit you," she disclosed, locking eyes with Reaves, intensifying the air of secrecy and anticipation."
Reaves was surprised by this; he wondered what Madeline would have bought for him, especially. "What is it?" he asked, genuinely curious.
"Well, before my husband died," Madeline started, trying to break it to him in very polite terms, "he told me that you have some issues keeping your manhood up," she said in lowered tones.
Reaves was taken aback by what she said; he physically adjusted himself as he shifted back, surprised by what just came out of Madeline's mouth. "What!" he asked, appalled by this. "What do you mean he told you that?" he asked, getting agitated.
"Reaves, I do not mean to annoy you," Madeline started again, taking a softer approach. "My late husband and I shared a lot of things, and I am sorry, but this was one of them," she said. "I know it is your secret, and I must say I have kept it safe with me without telling anyone," she said, trying to calm him down.
"You mean to tell me all this while, you were aware of my issues in the bedroom," Reaves said with so much indignation. "I thought it was a well-kept secret when I told your husband because he was my friend," he said. "I should have known that you too were even closer," he said, shaking his head.
"And why have you brought this up now, Madeline?" he said, looking at her, anger still evident in his eyes. "Have you come to mock me or threaten me with my secret so I can help with your stolen land?" he said, his voice raising in anger.
"No, no," Madeline said hurriedly. "In fact, I have come to help you," she said.
"Help me?" Reaves asked, 'and how will you do that?"
"Well," Madeline began, "I have found a solution to your problem," she said. "I found a very effective vitality elixir that can work as a sexual stimulant and keep you active through the night," she said, a smile playing at her face as she tried to encourage him.
"Another drug?" Reaves laughed. "Do you think I have not tried all the drugs and concoctions there are to try and regain my pride?" he said. "Do you think I am happy that I am not able to satisfy my wife?" he continued. "I have tried so many things, Madeline, and they either don't work or have severe side effects that it is better I never used them," he said, frustration evident in his every word.
"I went to the best doctor in the city," he continued. "I visited powerful drug sellers, I tried herbs and the rest; nothing worked. What makes you feel your miserly elixir will work?" he said to her, an angry sneer on his face.
Madeline brings out the elixir. "I understand that you have tried several solutions and none worked for you," she said. "But look at this vitality elixir," she said, handing it to him as he took it gently. "This is the only thing you need," she continued. "Just a small ball of this, and you will be able to last as long as you want. I can assure you that," Madeline said.
"I have never brought these things to you before, and I wouldn't have brought this if I didn't know how effective it is," she said to Reaves.
"I can assure you that it works perfectly with no side effects," she said, giving him a smile. "Immediately I heard of it, I had to come to you," she said, trying to convince him.Reaves was looking at the ball with increased curiosity. "He was tired of trying different things, but this seems like a good deal," he thought to himself.
"First off, Madeline, I want to tell you I do not trust this vitality elixir," he said to her, still staring at the ball of elixir. "I am only going to try this because you have given me your word," he said to her, finally turning to look at her in the eyes.
Madeline nodded her head. "I assure you, Reaves, you would be grateful I brought this to you," she said to him with all confidence.
"Alright, Madeline," Reaves said, still skeptical, "I will take it," he said.
He then gestured that they go into the eating room. "You can come have lunch with me before you leave," he said to her. "I was just about to have mine before you came in," he said.
"Oh, it is fine, Reaves," Madeline declined. "I just wanted to bring you this," she said. "I won't be staying long," she said.
