2nd. Season -
In the dimly lit bar, the man gave the bartender a nod.
The bartender then brought up two glasses of gin.
Carlyle looked at the gin and asked the man sitting in front of her, "Who are you? What do you want?"
The man picked up his glass of gin and took a sip, looking at her and said, "I ordered this gin for you, why don't you drink it?"
Carlyle said disdainfully, "No one as stupid as me would drink with a stranger."
The man suddenly burst out laughing, "Do you think I would poison in this glass? Afraid I'll poison you?"
Carlyle glared at him and said, "Humph! I don't think you dare! If I were to be poisoned here, you would not escape the law either, and would be quickly caught and shot by the police."
The man suddenly leaned forward, squinting at her. "Then go ahead and drink. I don't offer women a drink easily. Or is it that you can't hold your liquor and one sip will get you drunk?"
"What do you mean I can't hold my liquor? I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk!" Carlyle hated being mocked. She suddenly grabbed the glass, tilted her head back, and downed the entire drink. But then the strong alcohol hit her, and she started coughing uncontrollably.
The man laughed again, "Miss Carlyle, why are you getting so worked up about drinking? I just want you to savor this cup of wine!"
Carlyle coughed for a while before finally stopping. It was clear that it was you who spoke in a challenging tone earlier, and she would not be willing to be mocked by him, so she drank the wine. Now her eyes are fixed on him and she says, "Okay, I've had the drink. Now tell me who you are and what your purpose is in finding me?"
The man leans back against the chair and says with his arms crossed, "My goal is to find out who wanted Alison dead five years ago. Based on what I saw at the intersection earlier, I'm one hundred percent sure you're the one who tried to kill Alison five years ago!"
Carlyle looks at him angrily, "You've been following me!"
"Don't you think so?" the man responds.
Suddenly, Carlyle feels dizzy.
The man laughs again, "Carlyle, don't you say you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?"
"I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, I suspect that I was drugged by you..." Carlyle begins to feel something is wrong, this is not the dizziness from alcohol.
The man admits that he did ask his bartender friend to put some medicine in the drink, but it was only a small amount of sleeping pills, just to give Carlyle a lesson, and there was indeed a surveillance camera that captured her appearing at the scene where Alison was being chased five years ago, and her being there at that time was quite suspicious.
So, upon returning to here, she sought out Carlyle and began investigating the matter. Although Alison stated that she no longer cared about the matter, she and Xavier had wasted five years of their lives, and Leo's lost fatherly love should be addressed!
Carlyle suddenly felt weak all over and collapsed onto the table, saying, "Who are you? Five years ago, I really didn't harm Alison. It wasn't me, truly!"
Looking at Carlyle's face turning red by the second, the man inquired, "Hey bro, check this out. There's no way that was just a sleeping pill. What exactly did you put in the wine?'"
The bro quickly rushed to the counter to check, only to find that it was his own mistake. The previous day, some customers had come to consume and had left a bottle of the drug that helps enhance sexual desire on the counter by accident. As a result, it was accidentally put in the wrong bottle, while the sleeping pill was still in its original place.
The man glared at him angrily, "I really can't believe you! Do you have a room here?"
The bro immediately replied, "There's a suite on the top floor of my building."
"Give me the key," he said, taking the key and carrying the woman upstairs.
Carlyle felt her body heating up, and she pounded her fists on the man's chest, angrily shouting, "What drug have you given me? I feel something is wrong with my body!"
At that moment, the man suddenly lowered his head to kiss her lips, his kiss sweeping over her body with fervor.
Carlyle opened her eyes wide and looked at the man's eyes, as his kiss made her heart tremble. "Who exactly are you?"
"Lane."
The name Lane flowed into her mind and body, filling her with a wild desire for his cooling touch.
She closed her eyes and responded to his passionate kiss.
They kissed for a moment.
He asked her, "I shouldn't kiss you, can't you handle it on your own?"
She looked at Lane and said, "I... I've never done this on my own, so if you're not going to help me, I'll go downstairs to the bartender. I think he's cute, and he's also an accomplice, so... "
As she finished speaking, Carlyle had already been carried to bed by Lane, "Carlyle, I swear I really didn't know things would turn out like this. I really just wanted to put a small amount of sleeping pills to teach you a lesson!"
Carlyle gasped and laughed hysterically, "You men are all scumbags. Did you put sleeping pills in my drink to take my naked pictures?"
At this moment, Lane had already kissed her passionately, and his hands had unconsciously reached her breasts. She couldn't help moaning in pleasure.
