When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 1454

Chapter 1454 Spiked Drink 

As employees gradually left the office, Lysanna instructed Cecilia to prepare drinks for the clients. Meanwhile, she walked over to Cecilia’s desk and discreetly added something to the water in Cecilia’s tumbler. 

When Cecilia returned, she didn’t notice anything unusual. She drank the water in her tumbler and then began tidying up her belongings to head home. 

From a short distance away, Lysanna called out to her, Cecilia, there are still some clients arriving later. Stay a little longer in case they need you.” 

“Okay.” 

Being Lysanna’s subordinate, Cecilia couldn’t refuse such a reasonable work request. 

She sat back at her desk to wait, while Lysanna went to the company entrance to greet Keelan. 

“Mr. Whitaker, you’re here. Please, come in,” she said with a smile. 

Keelan glanced behind her. “Where’s Cecilia? Didn’t you say everything was arranged?” 

“She’s shy. She’s still upstairs, but I’ll accompany you to find her soon. I’ve already booked the most luxurious hotel nearby for you,” Lysanna replied with a smirk. 

Keelan’s face lit up with satisfaction. “Ms. Zabel, you’re always so capable.” 

“You’re too kind,” she said modestly. 

Upstairs, after drinking the water, Cecilia felt an overwhelming drowsiness. 

Assuming it was because she hadn’t slept well the night before, she rested her head on the desk for a quick nap while waiting for the client. 

When Lysanna and Keelan came upstairs and saw her asleep, they down to the car. 

Sestured for Keelan’s staff to carry 

her 

Half–conscious, Cecilia vaguely felt herself being moved. She tried to wake up, but her eyelids felt impossibly heavy. 

She faintly overheard voices, a man and a woman talking. “Why is she sleeping 

so soundly?” 

“If she weren’t, Mr. Keelan, how could you fully enjoy yourself?” Lysanna’s voice was tinged with amusement, completely unfazed by the immorality of her actions. 

Lysanna wanted to exact revenge on Cecilia, to teach her the consequences of crossing her. 

They carried Cecilia into a hotel room. As Keelan went to take a shower, Lysanna lowered her voice and muttered, “Cecilia, don’t blame me. I’m doing you a favor here. Mr. Whitaker is a billionaire. Sure, he’s a bit ugly, but he’s rich. He won’t treat you badly. When you rise to prominence after catching his eye, don’t forget me.” 

Cecilia, though still groggy, finally understood what was happening as she heard Lysanna’s words.

Her frustration mounted. Why hadn’t she been more cautious around Lysanna? 

She never imagined Lysanna would dare to do something like this in the workplace. 

Summoning all her willpower, Cecilia clenched her fists and dug her nails into her palms, hoping the pain would jolt her awake. 

Unfortunately, that wasn’t enough.
