Not long after, a man suddenly walked straight to Lucia, holding a glass of wine and smiling, "This lady," would you like to have a drink with me?" Lucia looked up, squinted slightly, and examined him for a few seconds. She thought he looked familiar as if she had seen him somewhere before.

Now he suddenly came to make a toast and it must be Irene who have ordered him to do so. Lucia knew exactly what she was trying to do in her heart. Sweeping a glance at the man, she smiled crookedly and said softly, "We don't seem to know each other?" The man raised an eyebrow, unwilling to leave, "After this drink, we'll know each other.” Lucia took a look at the wine in his glass. Without saying anything, she reached out and picked up her’
glass on the table, raising the glass in her hand at the man in front of Irene, and drinking the wine in her glass.’

to see him turn away and return to the neighboring table. She turned her head to the other side and rested her head on her hands, squinting her eyes as if she was drunk. She had anticipated that Irene might make a move on her, so she had prepared a special bottle of "white wine to keep in her hand The seemingly white and clear liquid was actually mineral water. Anyway, as long as Irene believed that she had drunk a lot of alcohol, then she had achieved her goal. "Lucia?"

Archibald was standing behind her, with a bit of surprise in his eyes. Until he saw Lucia's face, he slowly’ doing here?” Now seeing her ex-boyfriend, Lucia was very calm, I'm here for Greeves' birthday party. Aren't you too?" She looked around, but she didn't see Carol's figure, so she was a little surprised.’
