Chapter 37: A Trap (3) Achieving the Goal
When Gianna went to the private room, people inside the private room were still in high spirits. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
After all, with Maureen being there, there was absolutely no possibility to have an awkward silence.
When Maureen found Gianna was back at this moment, she hurriedly went over and hugged her.
Probably because she was drunk, she looked unstable when she was walking at this moment.
Gianna supported Maureen.
This woman looked very light but whenever she got drunk, she was heavy.
“If you can’t drink, drink lesser.” Gianna was slightly speechless.
Maureen was originally flopping on Gianna’s body but once she heard Gianna’s words now, she immediately got up from Gianna’s body and stood up straight, “Who says I can’t drink?!”
“…” She looked exactly like a joke.
Gianna helped Maureen to sit on the sofa.
When Maureen just sat down, she then instantly got up again.
She was the kind of person who could not be rested for a second.
She suddenly picked up the wine glass from the coffee table and handed it to Gianna.
Gianna did not drink tonight.
She did not drink from the beginning to the end.
In fact, she was indeed not good at drinking and since she did not drink, Caesar would drink more and he naturally would get drunk more easily. When he was drunk, many things could happen as a matter of course.
She suddenly felt that Kingsley’s intentional actions just now were apparently not just because he was unhappy.
He was deliberately digging a pit for Caesar.
Probably it was because he really understood too well Caesar’s personality of being determined to save face so he deliberately provoked him to let him drink more and get drunk faster.
Kingsley was indeed a lot better at calculating than she thought.
“Gina, we’re in the nightclub now, you must drink.” Maureen forced her.
Gianna glared at her.
“I don’t care, you must get drunk together with me tonight.” Maureen acted like a spoiled child.
This woman was really unreasonable!
“If you don’t drink, I’ll leave.” Maureen threatened.
Gianna really felt that Maureen sometimes was like a child.
And this little child who never grew up would suddenly be emotionally hurt to a great extent one day.
She did not want to recall everything that had passed in the last life.
At this moment, she just took Maureen’s wine glass and drank all the wine in the glass.
Maureen’s eyes widened.
At that moment, it was as if she had become sober.
She was actually just acting like a spoiled child which was what she usually did.
She grew up with Gianna together since they were young. Gianna was often giving her mother-like warmth so from time to time. She would act like a spoiled child in front of Gianna. Of course, this happened only when she was drunk. Just now, she was indeed slightly drunk so she wanted to be intimate with Gianna but she really did not expect that Gianna would drink all the wine just like that.
In fact, Gianna was not someone who totally did not drink. When they dined together usually, under her compulsion she would still drink a bit.
But, on this kind of occasion and this kind of place with good and bad people mixed up, Gianna absolutely would not drink!
Maureen looked at Gianna and only had one thought in her mind!
She had changed.
Gianna had entirely changed.
Maureen did not care anymore.
Anyway, whatever Gianna did was right.
If it were wrong, she would…continue to do the wrong thing with her.
She drank all the wine inside her own glass as well.
One full glass of wine went into her stomach.
Maureen simply did not take enough great pleasure in it so she poured a few cups again and drank with Gianna.
When the other people in the private room saw Gianna drinking, they also took the initiative to come over and drink with Gianna.
Gianna chose not to refuse anyone who came.
In between, Caesar had come over to drink for her but he could not resist the attacks of everyone in the room, especially Kingsley and Horace as well as Maureen. Even Helen and Gemma also occasionally asked him to drink so he could not care about Gianna afterwards.
In fact, in the choice between himself and Gianna, Caesar would never hesitate and would only choose himself.
“Gina.” Bruce sat next to her.
Gianna was obviously a little dizzy.
So, this was how the feeling of being drunk was.
It was not too bad though.
She looked at Bruce and grinned. At that moment, she even took the initiative to pick up the glass, “Bruce, I would like to have a glass with you.”
Seeing Gianna in a high mood, Bruce who originally wanted to remind her not to drink too much drank a glass of wine with Gianna at this moment instead of refusing.
After drinking, Gianna said, “Don’t you two want to drink?”
She was referring to Bruce and Maureen.
Maureen was full of reluctance.
On the contrary, Bruce took the initiative to pour a glass of wine.
He said, “Maureen, let me toast you and Brandon.”
Maureen pursed her lips.
Bruce had been back for quite some time.
This seemed to be the first time that he called her name.
He called her ‘Maureen’.
There was no intentional intimacy and there was no intention to cause them to be estranged.
Before Maureen answered, Bruce called Brandon who was sitting next to him.
Brandon was almost silent all night.
In the past, Gianna also thought that Brandon was an orphan so he would be a bit withdrawn. She would even have the same thoughts as Maureen that Brandon needed more care.
In fact, he was just using this way to get more sympathy from people.
And therefore, everyone could not defend themselves against something unexpected from him.
Brandon went and sat next to Maureen.
Brandon said, “I heard uncle say the other day that you guys are getting married soon.”
The uncle mentioned by him was naturally Maureen’s father.
“Oh,” Maureen answered.
Once she seemed to have mentioned to her father that she wanted to get married to Brandon and then move out.
It was actually just a casual remark.
She did not expect that old guy to take it seriously.
“Maureen is my younger sister, you shouldn’t bully her in the future,” Bruce said to Brandon and he looked very gentle.
Maureen was inexplicably a little annoyed.
What younger sister.
She had never treated him as an elder brother.
“I wish you two a happy wedding in advance.” Bruce smiled sincerely.
“Thanks.” Brandon was not enthusiastic but he still raised his glass anyway.
Maureen, however, did not raise her hand.
She was unwilling to drink with Bruce just like she was not unwilling to sing with him.
Brandon sensed Maureen’s emotions and wrapped her in his arms. He said, “Maureen is perhaps a little drunk.”
Bruce did not mind.
Of course, he would not debunk his lie either.
He said, “Then she shouldn’t drink, I’ll toast you.”
“No problem.” Brandon and Bruce clinked glasses.
After the two of them finished drinking, Bruce left.
It was probably because he did not want to disturb anyone.
Gianna looked at Bruce’s back and glanced back at Maureen.
Maureen did not care about Bruce at all and was still being intimate with Brandon.
She was really heartless and thoughtless!
The night was getting darker and darker.
Everyone was somewhat drunk.
Gianna was drunk too.
Caesar, who was beside her was also drunk.
On the other hand, Maureen was clearly the one who drank the most throughout. But in the end, she was still able to bounce.
It seemed that this woman’s body structure was different from normal people's.
Gianna turned her head to look at Helen and Gemma.
The two of them did not drink much. Their presences were not obvious but they did not leave.
Of course, they did not want to go.
She had not yet reached her goal tonight so how could she easily leave.
Gianna sneered.
Very soon, she would help Helen achieve what she wanted!
