Chapter: 1156
“We didn't order this."
"I ordered it," Coralie revealed.
She handed the milk to Camila and added, "Since you can't drink coffee,
I ordered milk for you."
The colleague decided to join in.
“I'll have a cup of coffee with Coralie."
He received his own cup of coffee.
“Thank you, Coralie." Camila expressed her gratitude as she accepted the milk.
At that moment, Camila felt thirsty and took a sip from her glass. However, an unsettling sensation washed over her, causing dizziness to cloud her senses.
Concerned, her colleague inquired, “Are you alright?"
Camila shook her head.
“I'm fine, perhaps just a bit tired."
Coralie interjected, "You should go back and rest."
Following Coralie's advice, Camila stood up and stated, “I'll head back first."
Something felt amiss.
As she rose from her seat, her gaze fell on the milk. It dawned on her that there could be something wrong with the milk.
Why else would she feel so weak and powerless?
Coralie observed her closely and admitted, "You're quite clever, Jane. I drugged the milk. I received a call instructing me to bring you back. They've discovered that you leaked the data. If I don't comply, my career will be ruined. I can't afford to lose my job before retirement, so I had to do this!"
Her colleague froze.
He was simply beyond surprised.
Coralie was so calm and had meticulously calculated everything, which threw him off.
Gripping the chair tightly, Camila struggled against the growing dizziness that enveloped her.
Coralie advised, "It's best to give up any resistance. I know you're a doctor, which is why I controlled the dosage I administered. You won't even realize it. It will render you completely powerless!"
Camila understood that she mustn't collapse. If she were to fall to the floor now, the safety of her unborn child would be at risk. Though her body felt weak, she slowly squatted down, aiming to minimize the impact of the impending fall. Eventually, her strength gave way, and she succumbed, collapsing onto the floor.
Witnessing her plight, the waiter rushed over to help her.
