Until It Begs On My Feet

The room plunged into stunned silence as Lucille's startling admission lingered in the air, leaving Chairman Sy, Drake, and Kale Justinbaste visibly bewildered.

"What are you saying?" Chairman Sy questioned, disbelief flickering in his widened eyes.

Lucille, feigning fear in her expression, started cautiously, "Kale Justinbaste... I caught him adding poison to the drinks intended for the executives. I switched the drink he tampered with, and he ended up poisoned instead!"

Drake struggled to contain his laughter at Lucille's bold fabrication, managing to maintain his composure as he watched Kale Justinbaste's face drain of color in disbelief.

Chairman Sy leaned forward, his features a mix of confusion and frustration. "Director Justinbaste wanted to poison us? That's preposterous."

"He's targeting my boyfriend! I won't let him harm him! That's why I had to act this way," Lucille claimed, her voice trembling with apparent distress.
