Chapter 40
Abel looked at her with a faint smile. “If you don’t know how to drink, you can learn. I’ll give you your first lesson today!”
He continued to speak meaningfully, “Don’t worry, this is the brandy that you saw just now. There’s no problem with it. As long as you finish these eight glasses of brandy, you can leave. Otherwise, you won’t even be able to leave this door!”
After saying that, Abel let go of Jocelyn’s arm.
No one was pulling her, but Jocelyn felt as if there was a heavy weight on her feet, and she could not walk out.
She was pretty sure that if she did not drink, she would not be able to rush out of the private room under the eyes of so many people.
She took a deep breath and looked at Abel seriously. “Mr. Crain, are you sure I can leave after drinking?”
Abel curled his lips. “I never lie!”
Jocelyn’s expression changed. “Alright, I believe you!”
Upon hearing this, Abel’s eyes flickered and a strange feeling flashed across his heart.
Jocelyn had a tense expression on her face as she walked to the table. She picked up a glass of brandy and gulped it down!
The men and women in the private room immediately cheered.
“Ohhhhhhhh.”
Someone shouted, “Abel, she knows how to drink. she was just bluffing you!”
Abel, on the other hand, stared straight at Jocelyn who was drinking and did not say a word.
Jocelyn finished one glass and then the second,
She had just finished her second glass when the door of the private room was kicked open.
Jocelyn automatically turned around.
Then, she saw Skyler’s dark and handsome face. He walked in with a cold expression and the temperature in the room seemed to have dropped as he entered. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Abel was also stunned. He smiled playfully and looked at Skyler.” Moore the Second, you got here so quickly. It seems that Ms. White’s place in your heart is indeed extraordinary!” Jocelyn’s eyebrows twitched. Hearing Abel speak to Skyler in such a confrontational manner, she immediately guessed his identity.
Six years ago, the Crain family’s jewelry was still the best in Mauve City.
However, six years ago, Skyler’s Prosperity Jewelry appeared out of nowhere In just one year, it had suppressed the Crain family’s position in Mauve City’s jewelry industry.
From now on, no matter what jewelry competition or activity there was, the Crain family would have to compete with Prosperity Jewelry.
It was a pity that he could only be sidelined every time. Every time, he would be number two, and this went on for a long time! The people of Mauve City even jokingly called him the number two jeweler. The two of them had always been arch-enemies, It was no wonder Abel hated Skyler so much. Abel probably made things difficult for her just now because he knew that she was the designer of Skyler’s company.
This was a fight between two godly people. Mortals would suffer! Jocelyn’s thoughts were fleeting. Just as she thought this, Skyler pulled her behind him. Skyler stood opposite Abel. “Abel, come at me if you have anything to say. What kind of man are you to make things difficult for a designer?!”.
Abel looked at Skyler and nudged him with his tongue. “Tsk, you’re right. I’m just inviting her over for a few drinks to make friends. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her. Am I making things difficult for you?”
When Jocelyn saw Abel looking at her, she pursed her lips and remained silent.
Skyler glanced at the table and his eyes turned cold. “Whose rule is it to make friends while having to drink eight glasses of brandy?”.
Not to mention, the glass used was a large one that could fill a big bottle.
Abel looked at Jocelyn with a cynical smile. His gaze shifted to Skyler’s face and his smile suddenly disappeared. “Of course it’s my rule. What’s wrong, Mr. Moore?”
Skyler was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with him. “I’m taking her away. Don’t play these tricks behind my back anymore! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite!” After Skyler said that, he turned to walk out.
Abel suddenly raised his voice. “Moore the Second, you’ve gone overboard. I just returned to the country today and heard that you’ve caused a huge ruckus in Mauve City in the past two days. I only invited Ms. White in for a short while. Do you have to be so unreasonable? Why? Are you trying to challenge me directly?”
Skyler stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at Abel expressionlessly. “Is there a need to declare war between us?”
Since they were already enemies, there was no need for such tricks!
With that, Skyler left with his men.
Abel was so angry that he flung the wine on the table onto the floor and shouted loudly in the private room, “Moore the Second, f*ck you!”
Unfortunately, Skyler did not even look at him.
