Antonette was feeling instead left out, but she had already thought of a way to handle things.
“OK, I will go and buy some drinks for us,” Antonette volunteered.
“All right, take care,” Kyle said over his shoulder.
Although he didn’t like Antonette, if Kyle wanted to have more time with Diana, he had to play nice.
With that, Antonette was off to the convenience store.
“OK, everything is prepared. Now let’s start cooking.”
Diana felt guilty about Antonette showing up. “I am really sorry, Kyle. I had no idea she would come here.”
“It’s not your fault. I know Antonette is the kind of girl who will get what she wants by any means.”
“Kyle, you…” Diana was astonished by his words.
But Kyle didn’t want to continue with the topic anymore, he didn’t want to waste time.
“Let’s cook the food first. Best to do it while the seafood is fresh,” he suggested.
There were plenty of doubts in Diana’s heart, but it was clear Kyle would not discuss it further, so she had to let it be.
***
In the kitchen, Kyle showed Diana a bottle of yellow rice wine.
“Have you ever tried shrimp boiled in wine?”
“No, I haven’t!”
“Do you want to try? I can promise you’ll never forget the taste!”
“Really? Is it that delicious?” Diana was curious.
“You’ll see later,” Kyle said with a mysterious smile.
He expertly opened the yellow rice wine and poured it into a large glass jar. Next, he placed the cleaned shrimps into the jar as well.
“Ahhh… it seems so cruel!” Diana couldn’t help covering her eyes.
Kyle lightly tapped her forehead. “Cruel? You even dare to eat sashimi!”
Diana stuck her tongue out in a cheeky reply.
At the same time, Antonette was carefully choosing their drinks in the convenience store.
She was after a mixed drink, high in alcohol but sweet enough to hide the danger within.
It was very easy to enjoy such a drink without one realizing they were quite drunk.
After Diana and Kyle were inebriated, everything would be under Antonette’s control.
She bought a suitable cocktail drink and walked back to the house.
When she opened the door, Antonette could see Diana and Kyle were talking happily with each other in the kitchen. The scene turned Antonette’s face cold for a moment, but she pretended nothing had happened and handed the drink over.
“I’ve bought this new drink. The shop assistant recommended it to me; apparently, it has a lovely flavor and low alcohol content.
Kyle didn’t pay much attention to the alcohol; he never expected Antonette might play a trick on them with it. He just replied coldly, “Put it there.”
Antonette felt aggrieved by Kyle’s lack of hospitality, which strengthened her determination to conquer him that night.
Why couldn’t she get what Diana had?
Antonette certainly was not ready to lose a man to Diana. Furthermore, she was eager to start making the steps towards a better life with a rich man like Kyle.
Half an hour later, the dishes were all ready and served at the dining table. There was a barbequed oyster, lemon prawns, wine-soaked shrimp, and steamed crab. This was accompanied by a garden salad and tofu with scallions.
It was a wonderful fusion of Western and Chinese style cuisine.
Watching Kyle cook had been a real eye-opening event for Antonette. Handsome, loyal, gentle, and a good chef! Kyle was the Prince charming of every girl’s dreams.
Antonette picked up the drink she’d bought and offered to pour everyone a glass. She filled three cups with the strong concoction and when no one was looking, slipped some of her special pills into two of the cups for good measure.
It would be a wonderful night for her and Kyle, Antonette thought merrily.
After today, Kyle would belong to her.
The delicious dishes before them piqued Diana’s appetite again; now, there was the only food in her eyes. She began tucking into everything and complimented Kyle on his cooking.
“Kyle, You are amazing! I never expected you could make so much delicious food. Everything is incredible.”
Kyle was glad to hear her praise. A genuine smile spread across his face.
“I practice cooking now and then during my spare time. I can do it for you anytime you want.”
“You are so sweet. Thank you, Kyle.”
A feeling of intense jealousy rose from Antonette’s heart when she saw Kyle’s eyes fixed permanently on Diana.
A moment later, Antonette stood up. “Kyle, I’d like to propose a toast to you.”
Although Kyle didn’t like Antonette, nor did he want to accept her toast, he had to be polite. Kyle accepted her cheers with a brief nod then sipped his drink.
After that, Kyle’s eyes were back on Diana again. And he didn’t look at Antonette again.
She was prepared to fight for her man. She was determined to get everything that Diana had, sooner or later.
And now Kyle had drunk his wine, it would be easier to carry out her plan.
Only had eyes for Diana when Sybil only had eyes for Diana, while her attention was, in turn, focused on the food.
Soon enough, Diana and Kyle both passed out on the table from the effect of their spiked drinks.
It was time for Antonette to execute her plan. First, she dragged Diana to the upstairs bedroom and locked the door. She didn’t want to be bothered by anybody with the video camera function set stand, with the video camera function set to record.
Once her preparation was complete, Antonette slinked sexily towards Kyle.
“Kyleee…” she leaned her body on him, her skin as soft as silk, and touched his handsome face. “I have wanted you for such a long time…”
At this point, Kyle was in a daze, his senses consumed by the pill he’d been given. He could only catch a hint of a fragrance but couldn’t make out who was in front of him. All he knew was there was a pair of soft hands stroking his face, and he was instantly horny. It felt like a fireball was going to explode in his body.
By this time, Antonette closed in on Kyle, wrapped her legs around his waist, and embraced him in her arms.
Antonette had lit the match to ignite Kyle’s burning desire.
