Chapter 196 No Antidote
Chapter 196 No Antidote
Rufus' POV:
When I opened the paper bag, I saw a bottle of green poison that was half empty. I then handed it to Perrill who was standing behind me.
Carefully, Perrill observed its appearance and smelled it. "I am eighty percent sure it's the same poison in Miss Todd's body. We still need to test it to be sure."
"No need to test it." Kyle shrugged, looking at the bottle of poison. "I was the one who poisoned her."
"I knew it was you! But you were refusing to admit it!" Flora stomped her feet in anger. "You son of a bitch!"
"I thought I would be able to hide it from everyone. Turned out I was wrong," Kyle retorted.
While Flora was very aggressive, Kyle looked oddly relaxed. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Shame on you! Do you not feel guilt at all?" Flora glared at Kyle.
"There's no use regretting it now that it's already been done. But I will say that this has nothing to do with Lucy. There was never a love affair between us." Kyle coldly smiled back at Flora. "Listen, bitch. You might as well just donate your eyes if you're not going to use them well. Or maybe it was your mother's fault for not giving you a brain. I am still a virgin. If you don't believe me, then you can see for yourself."
Flora's eyes turned red in rage. "Screw you! Only villains like you would use such dirty tricks. You are such a jerk and a loser. No wonder you ejaculated so quickly!"
"Yeah, yeah. I hurt Sylvia. What are you going to do about it? I just hate her, that's all. The prestige of the Royal Military School doesn't deserve to be tainted by a mere slave. And you! What right do you have yelling at me?" Kyle provoked Flora.
I kicked Kyle directly on his face and stepped on him with my foot.
Two lines of blood flowed from both his nostrils. He was dizzy for a few seconds before coming back to his senses, trembling in fear. "Please, I'm telling the truth... All I wanted was to kick Sylvia out of the school. It has nothing to do with anyone else."
"Say that again!"
Flora also wanted to have a go at him, but I stopped her. "Let him speak."
I grabbed Kyle's collar and lifted him up, staring into his eyes. "Just give me the antidote right now."
Kyle averted my gaze. His thin sunken cheeks slightly trembled. "I..."
"The antidote. Now." I tightened my grip on his collar, trying very hard to keep my rage at bay. "If you give me the antidote, you might still have a chance at survival."
"There is no antidote." Kyle coughed. "I bought that poison at a very high price in the black market. It's expensive because there is no antidote for it."
This finally set me off. I adjust my grip from his collar to his actual neck, lifting him so his feet did not touch the ground. "I'm going to give you one more chance. Where is the antidote?"
Kyle's feet dangled in the air, veins popping out of his forehead as he struggled. "I... I really don't have it."
At this point, I couldn't hear anything anymore. I was about to go crazy. At the thought of Sylvia dying, all of my restraints had come loose.
Kyle held on to my hands and tried to pry them off of his neck. "Please, let me go..."
My brain was filled with nothing but thirst for blood. I could feel blood rushing to my hand, begging me to crush the neck I was holding. Sneering, I looked at Kyle who was still struggling in vain. "Oh, I'll let you go. To hell."
