I have nowhere else to go...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas began to feel a strange unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Why does she act like we’re close...?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her familiarity didn’t make sense. It was unsettling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But while Lucas was growing frustrated, Kayla was growing desperate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the methods she had tried, every plan, every attempt, had failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, she had one last option. The system’s final instruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drug him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought made her hesitate, her fingers trembling slightly as she stood alone, the dim light flickering above her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If I don’t do this... I’ll lose everything.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swallowing her fear, she finally made up her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>........\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opportunity came sooner than expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas had a meeting at his regular restaurant, the same place where Kayla worked part-time as a waitress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kayla moved carefully, her hands steady despite the storm inside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When no one was watching, she crushed the pills and mixed them into his drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her heart pounded loudly in her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This is it...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once it was done, she carried the tray to his private room, placing it down with practiced ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she waited. Minutes passed like hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Lucas stepped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His movements were unsteady, his vision slightly blurred. He looked... drunk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kayla watched from a distance as he headed toward the elevator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her pulse quickened, and she hurried after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as she reached it, the doors closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it...\" she muttered under her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly checked the indicator. 15th floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That’s where he’s going... just as planned.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting another second, she pressed the button and entered the next elevator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Lucas, feeling a strange heat spreading through his body, leaned against the wall on the ground floor. His thoughts were hazy, his control slipping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Something’s not right...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With trembling fingers, he pulled out his phone and called Jules. In fact, he didn’t plan to go to the 15th floor and had clicked it by accident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the call connected, his voice softened, almost whining, \"I don’t feel well...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He explained everything in broken sentences, his usual composure completely gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules arrived shortly after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment she saw him, disheveled and unsteady, she couldn’t help but laugh lightly. \"You look terrible. We need to get you to a doctor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas shook his head stubbornly and pulled her into a loose embrace. \"We’re already together... why not just try it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone was shameless, almost teasing despite his condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules’ cheeks flushed instantly. \"You really know how to take advantage of a situation,\" she muttered, half-annoyed, half-embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>............\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, sunlight filtered softly into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas stirred awake, his mind still slightly foggy, but a satisfied smile slowly spread across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So... it finally happened.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned closer to Jules and kissed her deeply, clearly pleased with himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could continue, she pushed him away, her face still tinged with red. \"You’re misunderstanding. Nothing happened.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas blinked, stunned. \"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She cleared her throat awkwardly. \"We’re waiting until marriage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he just stared at her, then let out a long sigh, leaning against her shoulder. \"You’re really harsh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, there was no real complaint in his voice... only a strange sense of comfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, as he prepared to head out, his phone suddenly rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An unknown number. He frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Who could it be...?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without thinking much, he answered. For a brief second, there was silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then a familiar voice came through, filled with unsettling excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lucas... it’s me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Kayla.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tone was almost trembling with anticipation as she continued, \"I wanted to talk about last night...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Last night?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas frowned slightly. \"What about last night?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other end of the call, Kayla let out a soft chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t need to pretend,\" she said, her tone almost teasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We already spent the whole night together. Now it’s time for you to take responsibility. You should be man enough to admit it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could continue, Lucas cut her off, his voice turning cold and sharp. \"What kind of ’last night’ are you talking about? I didn’t do anything with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze instinctively shifted toward Jules, who was standing beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She was with me the whole time...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He frowned deeper. ’I saw her myself. There’s no way I could have been in two places at once.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Kayla’s confidence faltered slightly. \"Are you saying... you didn’t spend the night with me?\" she asked, her voice tightening. \"You left, but before that...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas interrupted again, his tone firm and unwavering. \"I was with my fiancée the entire night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a brief pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules stepped forward then, her voice calm but carrying an undeniable authority. \"I personally picked him up from the hotel last night,\" she said clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kayla froze, her breath catching as the realization slowly began to sink in. For a long moment, she said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Then who was it?\" she finally whispered, her voice trembling slightly. \"Who was the one with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas shrugged lightly, though his expression remained indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How would I know?\" he replied. \"If something happened, you should report it properly. I don’t have time for this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved the phone slightly, ready to hang up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could, Kayla’s voice suddenly rose, filled with panic. \"Wait! Don’t hang up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her breathing grew uneven as she hurriedly added, \"Help me! You’re partly responsible for this situation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas’ expression darkened, irritation flickering across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could respond, Jules gently took the phone from his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her demeanor shifted instantly. The softness from before disappeared, replaced by a composed, almost chilling calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Enough is enough...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had tolerated Kayla’s presence until now, trusting that Lucas could handle it himself. But this, this had crossed a line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding the phone steadily, she spoke, her voice low yet firm, \"Listen carefully.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no hesitation in her tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve been ignoring you because I believed my fiancé could deal with you,\" she continued. \"But if you keep causing trouble for him, I will personally step in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He has made it clear he has nothing to do with you,\" she added. \"Take the hint and stay away from him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A brief pause followed, the tension thick enough to suffocate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise,\" she finished calmly, \"I will come find you myself. And trust me... you won’t like what happens next.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other end, Kayla went completely silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I understand,\" she finally muttered weakly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules didn’t respond further. She simply ended the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas looked at her, then slowly raised his thumb with a faint smile. \"That was impressive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules rolled her eyes, though a small smile tugged at her lips. \"You really don’t know how to stop flattering me, do you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas chuckled softly, the tension in his shoulders easing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From that day onward, Kayla stopped appearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a while, Lucas finally felt a sense of relief, as if a persistent shadow had finally disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’At last... it’s over.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or so he thought. Days passed quietly, but then something new began to surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, it was just small whispers online, scattered posts, vague discussions. Lucas didn’t pay much attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’s not worth it,\" he muttered to himself, scrolling past them dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>",1513,"2026-06-06T04:03:54.518Z",1,"novelbin.me","87e0b0298fbd7c96573736b87f83e9d3528157163c1f8d431559b0be5a8eb825","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-607","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-605",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
