"Joseph must know then! So, instead of revealing the truth, he chose to cover for Anna?" Kate sneered.

Seeing her disappointment, Samuel added, "Kate, I have also been investigating your grandma's death. Like I said before, I suspected Joseph was involved, but I think I was wrong. After all, he is not that careless. However, I suspect someone else now…"

"Joseph…" Kate's heart was conflicted. She could not believe that Joseph would hurt her grandma, but she could also not forget the threats he made against her. She did see that he was a man who was willing to defend Anna at all costs.

"Let's have dinner together to talk about it. You must be confused as to why they would do this to us. There is a lot to explain, so we should talk over dinner."

Kate did not reply.

"I promise I will respect you. Please give me a chance to turn over a new leaf," Samuel begged.

Kate also wanted to know who spread the rumors, so she agreed, "Only for dinner, though. I need to be home early."

While Samuel was enticing Kate, Anna was asking Joseph for dinner. She thought it would take a lot of convincing, but he agreed immediately. Anna was shocked and assumed it was due to her fake pregnancy. At the thought of how much she could get out of pregnancy, she became excited and prayed her plan would work.

I must have sex with Joseph tonight. I need to get pregnant, and then if he finds out I did lie, I will at least have a baby to comfort me. Anna told herself.

At a romantic, candle-lit restaurant, Joseph and Anna sat across from each other. Anna raised her glass of wine and smiled, "Joseph, this restaurant is perfect for a date. Do you like it?"

Joseph looked at the glass in her hand and asked coldly, "Pregnant?"

"Mm…Sorry, I forgot," Anna embarrassedly smiled and changed a glass of water.

"Let's toast!" Anna advised pointing to Joseph's wine glass, "It is our first date since I got my memory back!"

Joseph held the glass, clinked it with hers, and drank it all. Everything was going according to plan; Anna wanted him to drink the wine that she had drugged. She was afraid that he might refuse to drink if she wasn't.

A few minutes late, Joseph excused himself to go to the washroom.

Anna agreed immediately, saying, "Okay, the dishes have not been served yet."

To ensure the plan would definitely work, Anna sent a text to the staff while Joseph was away from the table. She wrote, "Be on high alert! We need to succeed! We cannot fail!"

"Yes," a woman softly whispered, barely loud enough for Joseph to hear.

"Then you must order this dish. It is the best here!"

"Thank you!" The woman said a bit louder.

Joseph immediately recognized Kate's voice. He was irritated when he heard the conversation between Samuel and Kate; he clenched his fists and wanted to storm into the room. However, he had other things to deal with and returned to the table where Anna was waiting.

After he sat down, Anna pointed to the food on the table and said, "I ordered these dishes. I don't know if you will like them or…"

"It does not matter," Joseph interrupted. He was distracted and picked up his phone to send a text.

Anna noticed the strange expression on his face. She looked towards the private room and assumed he found out that Kate and Samuel were at the same restaurant. But, she didn't care because Joseph thought she was pregnant with his child, and Kate was on a date with Samuel. Joseph would see what a shameless woman Kate was.

While Anna was lost in thought, Joseph had sent his text messages and put his phone away. He picked up his fork and began to eat.

"Joseph, I know you have been exhausted recently. Please enjoy your dinner," Anna smiled.

To ensure the drugs took effect, she increased the amount in his food. She watched carefully waiting for him to show signs that it was working.

"What's wrong?" Joseph asked.

Anna looked away and shook her head, "Nothing, I just like watching you. We are still together after so many difficulties. It has not been easy."

"The wine…" Joseph looked at the glass, stopping mid-sentence.

He was frightening Anna, she immediately said, "There is nothing wrong with it!"

"I was going to say the wine tastes good. We should get some for home," Joseph smiled and drank another glass.

"Good…Good! I like it!" Anna stammered. She tried to control her anxiety so that she did not give herself away, but suddenly, Joseph's glass fell to the floor.

Anna jumped up and ran to Joseph's side, "What is wrong? Are you okay?"

Joseph frowned and replied in a low voice, "I feel a little dizzy."

"I am sure there are vacant rooms in the hotel upstairs. You should rest there before we try to go home," Anna said and called a waiter over to help Joseph stand.

A few minutes later, the waiter left Anna and Joseph in a VIP suite on the second floor.

Anna locked the door and laughed, "The last time you were drunk and unconscious; I took the initiative to give myself to you. Yet, you didn't respond at all. This time the drugs will help me, I don't think you will be able to control yourself and resist my seduction."

Walking toward the wardrobe, Anna took out a sexy nightie and put it on before crawly on top of Joseph.

"Joseph..." Anna whispered his name, affectionately, "Are you uncomfortable? Let me help you."

Then she started undoing Joseph's shirt.
