Chapter 33
In the end, Robin had to surrender. “W-We’ll meet again next time.”
Robin stuttered as he said this and added, “I have something to take care of. You guys go ahead and have fun. I’ll be leaving now.”
He was too embarrassed to continue to stay in the room. Robin could guarantee that today’s incident would make him the laughing stock amongst them for the rest of his life.
After he left, the air in the room seemed to have become fresher.
However, Eugene’s face remained gloomy as he glanced at Alex. “See what your group of friends has done?”
Alex felt that he was being wronged. Indeed, they were friends from young, but Robin was brought over by Aleena. They had meals together several times before, so Alex did not care much about him. Yet, he did not expect Robin to cause trouble today.
“Fine. Fine. It’s my fault, alright? Miss Maxwell, what would you like to drink? I’ll make a toast as an apology for that.”
Before Olivia could say anything, Eugene opened his mouth to speak. “She’ll be having a normal beverage.”
Alex frowned. “Hey, Eugene. Our circle’s rules don't allow normal beverages.”
Upon saying this, Alex took the wine glass from Olivia’s hand and poured some red wine into it before putting it in front of her. He then smiled and said, “Miss Maxwell, you can just drink less.”
However, Eugene’s face turned gloomy and he took the glass of red wine from her. “She doesn’t belong to this circle, so let her have a normal beverage. In turn, I’ll drink her portion of wine on her behalf.”
A sinister smile appeared on the corners of Alex’s mouth as he nodded satisfyingly. “Alright.”
Olivia glanced at Eugene. She did not expect him to do that.
Since Eugene had acted flagrantly just to protect her, several others came forward to cause Olivia more trouble.
At this very moment, someone was sensible enough to fill Olivia’s glass full with some normal beverage.
Then, Alex raised the wine glass in his hand and sincerely said, “Miss Maxwell, although you were a little unhappy just now, please have a magnanimous heart and don’t take it too personally. I’d like to apologize to you with this toast. You can do whatever you want.” After saying this, Alex downed the entire glass of wine in one shot.
Olivia took a sip of the beverage before she hurled a sentence at him. “Mr. Road, doctors suggest that people with physical illnesses refrain from drinking too much. Otherwise, it may negatively affect one’s sex drive!”
Olivia said it slowly as she was worried that Alex could not understand what she was saying.
However, Alex’s group of friends were mainly women, so how could he not understand what Olivia was trying to say? Soon after, Alex spat out all the wine he had just drunk and coughed continuously.
Eugene was amused by Olivia’s words, but his entire body was covered in Alex’s spit. For a moment, he had no time to manage his expression, and his face was filled with anger and disgust. Eugene then
raised his leg to kick Alex. “Get out of my way. You’re so disgusting.”
Soon, Alex finally stopped coughing. Does Eugene think I wanted to be like this? Did he not hear how shocking her words were?
“Miss Maxwell, are you still not over that incident?”
Olivia pretended as if she had just come to her senses. “Oh, I’m sorry about my occupational disease. Please don’t mind me. In fact, you should be grateful that I didn’t bring a needle along with me. Otherwise, you might be undergoing an acupuncture treatment right now!”
Everyone laughed out loud.
Even Eugene could not help but raise the corners of his lips. In fact, he had already imagined the image of Alex being pressed on the sofa as he underwent an acupuncture treatment. Eugene then looked at Alex and gave him a friendly reminder. “Did you hear her? Be careful of what you say!”
On the other hand, Alex was embarrassed and he kicked Eugene again. “What are you laughing at? Let’s drink!”
Eugene smiled as he held the glass of wine. He pointed at it and instructed, “Fill the glass to the brim!”
Alex sincerely wanted to get him drunk, so he filled his glass full of wine.
Without further ado, Eugene downed the entire glass of wine.
On the other side sat two women. Besides Aleena, who stood up to speak just now, there was another lady dressed in a small black dress. Her eyes were bright and charming. She always held a glass of red wine in her hand and did not say a single word. However, her eyes kept staring at them.
“Nicole, who do you think that woman is? Why would Eugene be so protective of her? He’s drinking on her behalf, and would even beat someone up for her,” Aleena asked curiously.
