Chapter 315: Drugging Larry


    Larry''s POV:


    If I were beingpletely honest, I was surprised when Amelia''s attitude towards me changed so


    quickly.But this was a good thing.She hadn''t called me "honey" ever since we broke up, and that was


    an eternity ago.


    Oh, my God! Was this my chance? Had she finally stopped rejecting me? I felt that she was finally


    willing to ept my love.


    Maybe she was moved by the way I treated hertely.I was so happy.My n was working.I just


    needed to keep on treating her sweetly until she remembered what our love felt like in the past,


    rekindling her old feelings for me.


    When we arrived at the restaurant, I said to the waiter, "Take me and my love to your most luxurious


    private room!"


    "Yes, sir," the waiter answered promptly with a big smile on his face.


    "Please follow me."


    Then, he led us to a quiet and spacious private room.When we were seated, he handed me a menu.I


    skimmed through the menu and looked at Amelia.


    "What food do you want? Honey, you can order whatever you like."


    "It''s up to you, honey.I can''t always make you bend over backwards for me.I have to consider your


    feelings, too."


    Amelia looked at me with a gentle smile, which made the butterflies in my stomach go crazy.


    Amelia was actually being nice to me.She was so thoughtful! I quickly ordered the most expensive


    dishes and told the waiter to leave us alone.


    "Don''te in unless necessary."


    Then I sank back in my seat.


    The smile on my face was so big, I felt as though my cheeks were going to cramp.


    "Amelia, I''m so happy that you''re mine again.It feels so surreal, I often wonder if I''m dreaming.It''s as


    though we''ve returned to our youth.Back then, we used to talk every day and love each other deeply."


    "I''m not young anymore, Larry."


    If my eyes didn''t deceive me, it looked like Amelia''s smile was a little fainter than before, which made


    me panic.


    Had I said something wrong? Thinking about what I said just now, I wondered if it was because I


    mentioned the past.


    Perhaps I inadvertently reminded Amelia of the time I had imprisoned her.


    s, I only did that because I loved her so much.


    Why couldn''t she understand something so simple? It seemed winning Amelia''s heart back was going


    to be trickier than I thought.I quickly changed the topic of conversation and tried to lighten the mood by


    telling her a joke.


    "There was once a baby snake. It asked its mother, ‘Are we poisonous snakes?’ The mother said, ''Yes,


    we are.But why do you ask?’ The little snake said that it bit its tongue by ident."


    I spoke dramatically, trying my best to deliver the joke as excellently as possible.


    "Oh, that''s hrious, Larry!" Amelia burst intoughter.


    Herugh was as crisp as bells ringing.


    Hearing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.


    "Honey, do you still remember the first time we met?"


    Now that Amelia was in a good mood again, I tried to bring up our past again.


    "Of course I remember, honey," Amelia replied, looking deep into my eyes.


    "I fell for you the second I firstid eyes on you.You were so beautiful.I couldn''t stop thinking about you


    for years!"


    I sighed with emotion.


    "You were also very handsome back then.I really loved you," Amelia said wistfully.


    Her words made me really excited.


    I reached for her hand and squeezed it.

    "In that case, why don''t you leave with me, honey?"


    Amelia remained silent, staring at her food nkly.


    "Amelia, tell me, would you be willing to start over with me?" I pleaded desperately.


    "It''s not that I''m unwilling.It''s just that I need time."


    Amelia turned her head to look at me.


    "Amelia, what can I do to make youe back to me?" I asked anxiously.


    Amelia sighed.


    "I want to go back with you, but first, I need to say goodbye to Anthony and Jennifer."


    I felt unhappy when I heard this.Why on earth would Amelia want to see that damned couple?


    "You don''t need to say goodbye.It will be too troublesome.Juste back with me!" I said impatiently,


    tapping my fingers against the tabletop agitatedly.


    "Please, Larry.Jennifer has been so good to me.I need to express my gratitude to her, in the very


    least."


    Amelia looked at me with pleading eyes and begged.I couldn''t say no to her when she was like this.


    "Fine."


    In the end, I reluctantly agreed.


    Amelia''s POV:


    I had been with Larry for hours now.I was so nervous the whole time that I had broken into a cold


    sweat.


    Larry was really difficult to deal with.


    He would be smiling, but the second I said something he didn''t want to hear, he would look immensely


    dissatisfied with me.I was scared that he would turn against me at any given moment.


    Sitting here, next to the man who had imprisoned me for years, I couldn''t help but tremble slightly.


    Those dark times haunted me to this day.


    So no matter how tenderly Larry treated me, I was still scared of him.I couldn''t get rid of the fear that he


    would imprison and torture me again.


    The fact that I had a vial of magic drug sitting in my handbag didn''t help.I was so scared that he had


    already suspected that something was wrong.


    Why did I have to be tortured by this devil? Even though every inch of my body wanted to run, I knew I


    had to fulfill my mission and drug Larry.I couldn''t fail.I had to seed.


    So much was riding on this.I tried my best to keep calm.


    After the waiter served the food, I pretended to be ted.


    While eating, I chatted with Larry and kept calm on the surface, fearing that he would find something


    wrong.


    I secretly prayed that Larry would stand up and leave the private room as soon as possible, even just


    for a moment.


    Otherwise, when else would I have the chance to drug his food? Fortunately, God seemed to hear my


    prayer.


    All of a sudden, Larry stood up and smiled at me apologetically.


    "Honey, I need to go to the bathroom.Wait for me here, okay?"


    "Go ahead.I''ll be right here."


    I shed him a casual smile.I was extremely happy.


    The opportunity had finallye! As he turned to leave, I pretended to focus on slicing my steak with a


    knife.


    When the door closed behind him, I dropped the knife and leapt into action, pulling the vial out of my


    bag and pouring its contents into Larry''s baked rice with cheese.


    I was so anxious that cold beads of sweat formed on my forehead.


    It might''ve been my imagination, but it was as though there was nothing inside the vial.I kept shaking it


    on top of Larry''s food, but it felt like an eternity before its contents started to pour out.


    My hands kept trembling and I almost dropped the bottlepletely.


    Fortunately, I managed to keep myself together until the vial had been emptied.I dashed back to my


    seat and hastily kept the vial back inside my handbag.


    Then, I continued to slice my _ steak, pretending as though nothing had happened.


    Unexpectedly, as soon as I sat down, Larry returned.


    I continued to eat as calmly as I could, but my heart was beating against my chest wildly.


    When I saw Larry pick up his spoon, I subconsciously held my breath, waiting for him to eat the baked


    rice.


    ‘Please, eat it! Eat it already!’ Just as he was opening his mouth to eat the baked rice with cheese, he


    suddenly moved the spoon towards me.


    "Honey, you''ve been staring at my food.Did you want to try the baked rice with cheese? It''s really


    delicious.Taste it!"


    Larry inched the spoon closer to me, smiling.


    I was horrified and almost lost control of my expression.


    Why did he ask me if I wanted to try his food? Did he find out that I had drugged his food?


    ‘‘Calm down, Amelia!’’ I scolded myself and somehow managed to squeeze out a smile.


    "Oh, thanks, but I think the cheese will taste a little greasy and I don''t like that.I guess I''d be willing to


    have a little taste, though."


    As I spoke, I was about to take the spoon from him.


    If Larry suspected me, I had to eat the food in exchange for his trust.


    But just as I was about to eat this spoonful of baked rice with cheese, Larry suddenly stopped me.


    Shaking his head, he said, "No need, Amelia.It''s okay if you don''t want to try it.You don''t have to force


    yourself in front of me."


    After saying that, Larry took the spoon back and popped it into his mouth.


    I watched him eat the baked rice with cheese and felt as though a weight had been lifted off of my


    shoulders.


    In a matter of mere minutes, my emotions had ridden a wild roller coaster.I continued to chat with Larry,


    secretly observing his reaction.


    His expression was more or less neutral.


    It didn''t seem like he had noticed that I had drugged his food.


    When he was finished with his food, I finally felt relieved.


    After dinner, Larry took me back to the pce gate.


    "Bye, honey."


    Larry waved at me with a big smile, turned around, and left.


    "Bye, Larry!"


    I tried my best to keep calm and watched Larry leave until hepletely disappeared from my sight.


    Perfect! I had finally fulfilled my task.I let out a long sigh of relief and hurried into the royal pce.I


    needed to report to Jennifer about what had happened tonight.
