I tried my best to wave away the troubled emotions in my heart, and I forced a smile as I said to Reynaldo, “No, eight glasses of wine can surely secure Mr. Humphrey’s investment. It seems like a profitable deal to me, so why would Mr. Humphrey be targeting me?”
Reynaldo tugged at his lip and looked at Anton, “Did you hear that?”
Anton didn’t say anything, he just snorted coldly and sat back in his chair to smoke.
I smiled at Winston reassuringly again, then tilted my head back and drank down the fifth glass of wine.
When I was drinking this cup, I accidentally choked and started. coughing violently.
I quickly grabbed the edge of the table and coughed so hard that my internal organs were about to explode.
anymore,
Winston lightly patted my back and sadly said, “Don’t drink anym Ralda, really, don’t drink anymore.”
I shook my head and smiled at him, “No, you can’t drink, cough… you must drink, just… cough… almost succeeded,
At this moment, my head was getting dizzier and my stomach was churning and burning.
I forcefully suppressed the discomfort all over my body and picked up the sixth glass of wine.

There are only three cups left, I must hold on!
“Do you know what the consequences would be for you if you were to drink eight glasses of wine?” Suddenly, Reynaldo’s soft and eerie voice rang out, his tone as cold as ice.
I smiled at him drowsily and said, “These eight glasses of wine were your request, right? Don’t waste words, anyway, once I finish drinking, you have to invest in this project for us!”
Reynaldo also didn’t know what happened, and suddenly got angry.
He stared at me coldly and almost through gritted teeth, said, “Just for the sake of his project going smoothly, you’re willing to give up your life? Esmeralda, how much do you care about him?”
I was speechless in my heart.
As an employee of Winston, did I have any connection with Winston when I wholeheartedly helped Winston raise investments?
I couldn’t understand, really couldn’t understand.
I had a headache.
I just wanted to finish these remaining three glasses of wine quickly and then go back to sleep well.
However, just as I was drinking my sixth glass of wine, the drink in my hand was suddenly and forcefully swung onto the ground by someone.
I was completely stunned, before I could even react, Reynaldo grabbed me and quickly walked out.
“What were you doing?” I shook off his hand.

But he held on very tightly, my wrist was pulled so tightly that it hurt.
He seemed very angry, walked quickly, and almost dragged me along.
I was already feeling extremely uncomfortable, and my stomach was also in turmoil.
He dragged me along like this, and I felt like I was about to vomit.
I grabbed his arm and said uncomfortably, “Slow down, slow down, I… I feel like vomiting…”
me
Reynaldo snorted coldly and, turning the corner, pushed into the bathroom.
I quickly bent over the sink and vomited uncontrollably, throwing up everything I had eaten today, until only sour water was left.
My stomach felt extremely uncomfortable, with a burning sensation. and pain.
I leaned on the sink in a disheveled state, feeling more uncomfortable than if I were dead.
In the mirror, the man leaned against the wall, smoking
absentmindedly, occasionally casting a cold gaze towards me, as sharp as icy knives.
I took a break for a while, and then I washed my face with water.
The icy water made my mind a little clearer.
Thinking about the project investment, I turned around with great
effort and looked at him, saying, “Why did you drag me out? I still had three glasses of wine to drink.”

I walked unsteadily out after saying that.
Just the next second, I was pressed against the cold wall by him.
His hand, holding a cigarette, propped against the side of my head, while his other hand pinched my chin, he said coldly, “Didn’t you repeatedly claim that you haven’t been working for him?”
Didn’t you repeatedly claim that you had no contact with him?
What else did you say? Did you say you would never be with him?
“Hey Esmeralda, do you want to see what you were doing right now?”
I pounded his chest in distress, saying, “Don’t be like this, let’s… let’s talk.”
Reynaldo stared at me with a cold and terrifying gaze.
He gritted his teeth and said word by word, “You are now willing to sacrifice even your life for his project.”
How much did you really love him? Huh?
He spoke as he began to exert force with his hands.
I immediately felt a severe pain in my chin, as if it was about to be crushed by him.
