บททั้งหมดของ After Eating a Poisonous Mushroom, I Thought I Was the Heroine of an Erotica: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 18

He laughed and shook his head.She laughed too, suddenly shy. “What a coincidence. I don’t have a boyfriend either.”He looked down. “You’re stepping on my shoe.”She immediately apologized. “Sorry. You can step on me back.”Before she could embarrass herself further, he twirled her lightly. She spun so fast she swayed right into him, mumbling, “I think there’s an earthquake…”And then she passed out cold in his arms.Her parents nearly had a heart attack.—When Wendy sobered up the next day, she remembered everything and blamed the “wine” for ruining her life.She insisted it wasn’t her fault.She was normally so well-behaved. Didn’t her parents know?They knew.Which was why she got grounded for a full week.Her little group of friends teased her every day after school. She would watch them hang out, studying and drinking boba tea, while she sat behind the iron gate like a prisoner on supervised release.She felt like she had dreamed the entire thing.A dream with a rid

She also got spanked for it.When that feather duster landed on her back, she felt her young love life die right there on the spot.She was sure she would never love again.Not because Daniel had tattled on her — he honestly thought scolding her once would be enough to make her behave.But the school security guard?He was terrifyingly dedicated.He pulled the surveillance footage, found her climbing the fence, and marched her out like a criminal.The drama Wendy filmed actually made her a little bit popular.That winter break, when the whole family finally had time off, they all sat around the TV watching her scenes.Meanwhile, she was miserably upstairs doing winter homework because thanks to her “criminal record,” her parents had reclassified her from “sweet little angel” to “menace requiring maximum supervision.”Still, her parents prepared gifts and planned a dinner to thank Daniel for recommending her for the role.They had no idea she had been climbing fences just to see

That night, she moved through the house like a ghost.She couldn’t sleep. Her heart hurt too much.So she decided to sneak into the cellar and steal one of her dad’s bottles — anything to numb the ache.But the moment she climbed back up with the bottle in hand, she ran straight into her father, who had come downstairs to get her mom a glass of water.He froze. His eyes widened at the sight of the bottle.Before he could even scold her, Wendy — already fragile and exhausted — broke down in loud, messy sobs.It scared him half to death.Her parents adored her. Their strictness came from love, not cruelty.Seeing her collapse like that gutted him.He wrapped his arms around her, rubbing her back while she gasped through tears.“What happened, sweetheart? Tell Dad.”And she did.Everything.She told him she liked Daniel.That she had been working so hard, trying to grow up faster, only to find out he was with someone else before she even had a chance.Her father’s jaw tightened.

Wendy stared at the actor in disbelief.The pretty boy had been trying to flirt with her the entire shoot, but she never took him seriously. He assumed she must be easy to impress, a spoiled rich girl with no ambition. The more she ignored him, the more determined he became.“I’m serious,” he whispered, holding out the rose like he was offering a deal. “If you date me, I can share my resources with you. I could help you climb even higher.”Before she could answer, the door swung open hard enough to rattle the hinges.A man stepped inside — tall, sharply cut features, expression icy enough to freeze the air.The actor went rigid.Daniel Hord.Wendy’s husband.Daniel let the silence stretch, his gaze sweeping over the young actor with a calm, predatory precision that made his scalp prickle.The actor had assumed Wendy was naïve and harmless.Turns out she was married to the heir of one of the most powerful families in the country.“Nice to meet you,” Daniel said, extending a lo
