Chapter 39: Antidote

While patting Lily's back one of the women asked:" Are you alright? Why did you scream like that? What happened? "

" I- I was just working on my computer a- and then something strange popped up on the screen- " S~eaʀᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Lily began to speak while pointing towards his computer but he stopped remembering that if these women saw the screen they might end up seeing his wallpaper and he didn't want anyone to know about his secret love interest.

But it was already too late, they all looked at the screen but instead of Jasmine's image it was a clip of two men doing some strange stretching and feeding each other their big bananas, the expression of all the women changed immediately.

On this planet, men who loves men are treated as just disgusting and even the law prevents it because of the small number of men, all the women moved away from Lily and look at him with ugly expressions.

They all walked out of there while cursing him, a couple of them even took photos while Lily just stared at the computer in surprise and shock, wondering if he should be happy that they didn't find out about how secret or sad that they had misunderstood him in such a way.

" W- Wait it's not like what you think, I only got my own ba- " Lily still tried to explain.

******

" Hmm, That was fun. Oh, I forgot to eat, my belly is starting to hurt a little now. " Lucian mumbled as he turned the computer off and stood up.

He had locked the room from inside so even if someone had brought food for him and knocked on the door he wouldn't have been able to hear it.

No one would believe it if they were told that this person had just hacked one of the best companies only as a test and did it so easily, this skill alone is enough to threaten even a country itself.

Opening the door, he walked towards the kitchen and told them to send some food for him, the kitchen on this floor is mostly set up for him alone since Jasmine doesn't eat food that often at home.

Some time after he returned to his room, the food arrived there. Everything was top notch the chefs who had prepared everything were definitely one of the best, and Jasmine must be spending quite a bit on the food alone.

' Since my skills could still be used here so that gives me a lot of possibilities for the future, wait- now that I think about it, don't I go to any school or something? ' Lucian thought.

[ You used to, but your caring wife does not want you surrounded by so many girls so she bought the school and got the passing certificate for you. ]

"..."

Without saying anything Lucian began to eat, he was not much of a picky eater and the food was tasty so within minutes he stuffed his belly with all of the food present in front of him.

' Since I have some free time maybe I should try breaking into another company or maybe I should compete with other hackers, there must be a platform for that type of challenge here too. '

After he finished eating, he just left the utensils outside his room and walked back to his computer.

*RING* *RING*

Just then his mobile rang, taking it out he saw that it was Scarlett, he answered the call and spoke: " What is it? "

Lucian heard her response then changing his mind he walked out of his room and headed to the floor above, on the thirteenth floor most of the rooms were empty. The twelfth and thirteenth floors were for Jasmine's personal use.

Soon Lucian arrived in front of Scarlett, she stood outside a glass door without any expression on her face, after knowing about Natasha she was being even more careful.

" I have brought everything you might need here, do you want some personal trainers? " Scarlett spoke as she pointed towards the equipment that was arranged inside the large room.

Lucian walked inside and looked around, it was his personal gym all the equipment here was best in every aspect, and Scarlett had done a better job than he expected.

[ I can help you with the exercise, and because of that pill your growth is going to be a lot faster, so it's better if only a few people are aware of it. ]

" No, I don't need any personal trainers. You did great. " Lucian said showing her a thumbs up, but Scarlett just looked back at him as if she was waiting for something else.

" What is it now? " He asked.

" Since you are associated with two of the strongest women on the surface of this planet, then you must also know that there is no way I could even think of hurting you, right? " Scarlett asked, her tone cold as always.

" Yeah, I guess so. " Lucian replied.

" Then, can you give me the permanent antidote for the poison you fed me? I promise I will still listen to your orders. " She added.

" Hmmm Should I? Okay, since you have been working so hard for me I'll give you the permanent antidote, but you would have to take it in two doses. " Lucian said, raising two fingers in the air.

" Thank you... " Then she paused and after thinking for a few seconds she asked: " Can I receive the first dose now? "

" Fine, I'll give you one. " Lucian replied.

Scarlett felt relieved but then she wondered how is he doing to give her the antidote, she imagined him making her drink it just like how he forced her to drink the poison.

For some reason, she felt her cheeks burning as she played those scenes in her mind. Even though she didn't even want to think about that shameful memory, she gulped her saliva remembering the taste of his mouth.

Then she waited for him, anticipating his next actions. Her mind was divided, she didn't want to be touched by Lucian again but she wanted to feel like that time and have a taste of him.

" Here, take it. " Putting a hand in his pocket, Lucian took out a small glass bottle from his pocket and gave it to her.

Scarlett took the bottle feeling a little awkward, of course, this was the normal way of giving the antidote why did she even think of passing the liquid like that?

But she couldn't deny that a part of her was annoyed, she took the bottle and releasing a sigh she walked away from there.

Lucian didn't think too much about why she was acting like that, he turned towards the equipment and began to observe them all, many of these things didn't even exist in his original earth.

' I still don't know what kind of effect that liquid will have on her, can't you tell me now? ' Lucian questioned in his mind.

[ Just wait a little longer, after she drinks the last dose she will be the one to tell you about it, though the main purpose of that potion is to increase one's physical strength slightly and remove their exhaustion but it has a side effect. ]
