5 minutes had passed.
Allison suddenly felt her body warming up and she started to remove her outer jacket. But even after she had removed the jacket, Allison felt increasingly warm and her mouth was parched.
This kind of warm feeling didn’t feel that it was due to the surrounding temperature. The temperature burned within her and it was getting unbearable.
“How strange, Renata, is the air conditioner broken?”
“Really? I don’t think so!” Renata shrugged with a trace of ridicule flashing across her eyes.
Allison’s heart shuddered when she saw the look but she didn’t think too much of it. She dismissed it as she wasn’t feeling well and made a mistake. After sitting for a while, Allison felt increasingly uncomfortable and couldn’t tolerate it anymore and she told Renata about it.
“Renata, I’m not feeling well and I will leave first,” Allison said and wanted to leave. But as she stood up, her legs gave out and she collapsed back into the chair.
At that moment, apart from feeling hot, her entire body was becoming increasingly weak.
“Allison, are you having a fever and a cold?” At this moment, Renata laughed and appeared surprised and anxious. With that remark, Allison also felt that her condition seemed to be a fever.
“How about this, Allison, I’ll get a room for you to rest in and I’ll apply for leave from the company for you.”
Renata didn’t allow Allison any chance to consider. She grabbed Allison, and dragged her towards the hotel rooms.
At this point, Allison was totally weak and could only go along with Renata but she was still conscious, “Renata, it’s alright, I’ll just take some medicine and I’ll be fine. I don’t have to stay here.”
Renata acted as if she didn’t hear what Allison said and dragged Allison into the lift and pressed the button for the 18th floor.
The effects of the drug became more intense and Allison began to have double vision. But she insisted and said, “Renata, no need, I’ll just take some medicine, and I’ll be fine…”
