"Antonette," looking at the ground, Diana spoke in a quiet, feeble voice. "Do I look like a mistress to you?"

Antonette pretended to be warm and kind.

"No way. You are a nice girl. How could you be a mistress?"

Diana sobbed, "I don't know how my life turned out like this. I don't know what I should do.'

"Maybe they heard someone say something bad about you and believed them. You can explain everything to them later."

"Really?"

"Of course."

Antonette's words were a relief to Diana. She took a moment to calm herself, then started back to the dormitory.

"Diana, where are you going? What about our plans for tonight?"

After everything that happened, Diana had forgotten.

Diana thought for a while and shook her head. "I am not in the mood, Antonette. Can we go another time?"

Seeing her plan might fail, Antonette said at once, "No! If you stay in on your own, you will only feel worse, trust me! Let's go sing karaoke and drink some wine, then you can have a nice sleep. And tomorrow morning, when you get up, you won't feel so stressed by all this nonsense!"

Antonette was pretty persuasive. Indeed, Diana really hoped she could return to a peaceful life. And perhaps when she opened her eyes the next morning, all the bad stuff would be gone!

Brian wouldn't treat her so badly. Or, maybe there would be no Brian in her life at all. And she would get along with her roommates again. She just wanted to be an ordinary student. Diana was desperate.

Noticing her low spirits, Antonette held Diana's hand and said, "Let's go. When we get to the bar, you will be free from all these things."

Diana finally gave in and agreed to go.

Sitting in the taxi headed for the bar, Diana stared absentmindedly out of the window, while Antonette was texting the owner of the bar, telling him to prepare. She wouldn't let Diana run away this time.

Diana Anderson, you will never marry a rich man! And tonight, you will become their s.e.x.u.a.l tool! Thinking of that, Antonette smiled happily.

As they entered the karaoke bar, Antonette led Diana to the room she had reserved.

Diana was surprised. It was so luxurious, she had never been into such a high-level karaoke room.

A large, crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling with delicate, glass flowers placed between the colorful lights.

There were an expensive-looking red leather couch and two beautiful, ceramic tables in front, with several kinds of wine and fresh fruits placed on top.

What surprised Diana most was the giant deluxe LCD TV and two giant speakers beside it. The TV alone must be worth several thousand dollars!

"Antonette, you are so generous!" Diana was able to forget her sadness in such surroundings quickly.

Antonette smiled, "The boss is my friend. He gave me a large discount."

Diana was relieved to hear the room wouldn't cost Antonette too much money; she would feel terrible if Antonette spent all her money trying to cheer her up.

"Diana, you take a seat. I will go say hi to the manager and thank him for the room. You can just sing a few songs, drink some wine, eat some fruit, enjoy yourself!"

"Okay! Antonette, you are so kind!" Diana said with a big smile.

"Of course, we are best friends!" Antonette replied sweetly.

Antonette was elated, everything was going according to plan so far. Diana was so innocent, and she didn't suspect a thing!

After Antonette left, Diana put on a few songs to sing. She opened a bottle of wine and poured herself a nice, big glass.

Diana tended to eat a lot when she was sad, so she also tucked into the fruit and snacks laid out on the table. She didn't normally drink much alcohol, but the wine was delicious, so she found herself eating and drinking quite a lot.

After a while, Antonette came back and found Diana already a few glasses into her first bottle of wine.

"Don't just drink that one! This wine is also good. It is famous for its fresh, fruity taste."

Antonette opened another bottle of wine and poured it into a glass.

She checked to make sure Diana was still busy singing, then carefully dropped a small white pill into the glass. It fizzed a little then quickly dissolved in the liquid.

"Try it." Antonette handed Diana the glass of wine, with an amused grin.

Diana was oblivious to what Antonette had done. As she sipped the new wine, she frowned slightly.

Antonette worried that Diana would suspect what she had done and asked tentatively, "What's wrong?"

Diana shook her head, "Nothing. The taste is a bit strange."

Antonette began to sweat. She smiled at Diana and said, "You might not be used to its taste. If you don't like it, just put it to one side. Let's sing!"

Diana wasn't in the mood to sing anymore. She barely looked up from the table as she continued eating and drinking.

After choosing her song, Antonette sat down and sang, all the while keeping an eye on Diana's reactions. Finally, she saw Diana touch her face.

Antonette stood up and said, "I can feel my makeup is running. I'm just going to the bathroom to redo it."

Diana was hot now. She guessed she had drunk too much wine and looked around the room for some water. She didn't even hear what Antonette said.

Antonette rushed out of the room, leaving the door slightly ajar. Then she hid in the bathroom to wait for Diana's suffering.

After drinking a glass of water, Diana still felt hot, and she couldn't see clearly. Before, she thought it was because of alcohol, but now it was starting to feel weird.

Diana sensed the danger and staggered toward the door of the room to look for Antonette.

She'd barely made it halfway across the room when several tall, strong men walked in after a small, fat man.

"Who are you? You are in the wrong room."

"We are Mr. Colin's staff. Do you know Antonette?"
