Chapter 49
One of the women in the crowd noticed Sierra’s embarrassment and immediately teased, Ms. McMillan, are you too embarrassed to say
it?”
Sierra hesitated, unsure of how to respond to the situation.
She had never had that kind of relationship with Dorian! How would she know if he was good in bed?
Besides, Dorian would never allow her to say such things. It would be a blow to his pride. At that moment, Sierra felt like she was caught between a rock and a hard place. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Gisele, however, noticed Sierra’s embarrassment and immediately exclaimed, “I see!”
Gisele’s exclamation was deliberately drawn out, and it immediately brought everyone’s attention back to her again.
She set aside the herbs she had picked up and chuckled with delight. “Are you feeling embarrassed because you’re longing for some intimacy but haven’t quite achieved it yet? In that case, you’ll need some aphrodisiac incense!”
She picked up
several sticks of incense in different colors and scents and said, “Which color and scent do you prefer? I’ve got a variety of aphrodisiac incense here that’s guaranteed to do the trick!”
“I–I didn’t mean that!” Sierra felt the strange gazes of the people around her and anxiously explained, “I’m actually being reserved about it. I don’t really-”
Gisele quipped, “How is wanting to have a child before getting married being reserved? 1 mean, getting pregnant out of wedlock isn’t exactly reserved, right?”
She set aside the incense and suddenly said, “Ms. McMillan, I have all the aphrodisiacs and fertility remedies you’re looking for! However, I’m afraid I can’t sell them to you right now.
“You should come back to me after you’ve tied the knot. Otherwise, it would greatly diminish your reputation and set a bad example for others.
“Imagine this–the top socialite of Hearthfield getting pregnant out of wedlock. Even the mere thought of such a headline has got me all worked up!”
Gisele seemed to have Sierra’s best interests at heart. She bent down to pick up the brush pen from the trolley.
She immediately erased the words “personalized prescription” from the small signage on the folding table, and rewrote the words.
Sierra’s face flushed with embarrassment when she heard what Gisele said, and her brimmed with tears, looking like she had been picked on.

The crowd that had been praising Sierra suddenly fell silent, unsure of what to say.
They knew that Dorian truly doted on Sierra. It was rumored online that he had invested 50 million dollars in “The Ideal Nursing Home” just to let Sierra be a guest on the show.
“Alright, everyone! If you need anything, feel free to come and consult me! I guarantee that I’ll be honest and upfront with everyone!” Gisele shouted out boldly and unabashedly.
Everyone took a closer look at the small signage and saw that the previous wording had been changed to “Sierra McMillan, Hearthfield’s top socialite, has visited here and spent a fortune to seek fertility treatment!!!!
Those three exclamation points on the signage truly emphasized the authenticity of this
matter.
As someone read it aloud, passersby immediately gathered around when they heard it.
Sierra, who was already standing at the center of the crowd, was completely surrounded.
In the sweltering heat, the smell of sweat permeated the air. Although her complexion was ghastly, she couldn’t find a way out.
She glared resentfully at Gisele, yet the latter acted as if nothing was wrong, and even described the previous conversation in a vivid and detailed way, embellishing it.
“Even Dorian Jefferson, the wealthiest man and financial magnate in Hearthfield, can’t perform in bed anymore! What does this mean, everyone?
“It shows that money isn’t everything! Maintaining good health is of utmost importance. Our herbs are of the highest quality, and the prescription is my own unique formula. It’s 100 % satisfaction guaranteed!
“Even Hearthfield’s top socialite, Sierra McMillan, personally visited to seek fertility. treatment with a considerable sum of money. Those who are interested can come and have at
look!”
Gisele’s voice repeatedly echoed through the crowd.
Sierra’s face flushed with fury and she exclaimed, “Gisele, do you even have a license to be a herbal medicine practitioner? How could you recklessly prescribe herbal medicine here?
“Besides, the case involving your plot against one of the founding fathers of our country, Mr. Doug, hasn’t even been resolved yet. Are you trying to harm more innocent people here?
Everyone in the crowd suddenly fell silent.
They had all been keeping up with the recent news, but they had never expected that the murder suspect would be the beautiful stall owner standing before them.
