Chapter 320
Since Emmett went along with it, Natalia had no choice but to follow
“Alright! That’s the spirit! Gabriel, pour them another round! Hayden gave Gabriella knowing look, and he instantly picked up on it
Dorothy was already feeling the effects of the alcohol, and she didn’t want Natala, a young woman, to get drunk too. “Emmett, Lane just called me and said he needs a file. Go with Natalia to the hotel and send it to him:
“Ms. Sanchez, I…
“Just go!” Dorothy gave him a look, signaling for him to take Natalia away first.
Emmett had no choice but to comply. “Alright.”
Dorothy wasn’t completely disregarding her own safety. She was planning to have Emmett come back for her later, but for now, she needed to get Natalia out of there.
She had just been discharged from the hospital so she couldn’t afford to end up there again just because of alcohol.
Once the two of them left, the frequency at which Gabriel and Hayden poured Dorothy more drinks increased. It seemed as if the moment she finished one glass, the next was already filled to the brim.
Dorothy knew she couldn’t drink any more. She waved her hand and was somewhat unsteady as she stood up. need to use the restroom.”
“Let me help you” Hayden said, already standing up
“No need; I can manage At this point, even if it took all her remaining sobriety Dorothy had to pretend she wasn’t drunk
She planned to call Emmett from the restroom, but the moment she stepped inside, her vision started to blur
Her phone rang at that exact moment. Dorothy took it out to answer, but she couldn’t even make out the words on the screen.
“Hello..”
“Where are you. Dorothy?
“Hel hello. I’m drunk…
After she said those three words, her knees buckled, and she collapsed in the restroom.
When Everett found her in the ladies‘ room, she was completely unconscious
Without any hesitation, he strode in and lifted Dorothy from the floor as his handsome face dawned a cold and grim expression
Everett didn’t even want to think about what could have happened if he hadn’t arrived.
She was completely wasted Wasn’t she easy prey?
Four years, and you haven’t changed at all”
Outside, Gabriel and Hayden were still waiting. The spiked drinks were finally serving their purpose,
Hayden cut a piece of steak as he laughed. “Gabriel, this is business as usual, huh! Women are so easy to deal with, and she’s the project director too. If she’s willing to let things slide, negotiations will be much smoother.”
Indeed, Hayden, you are a genius. You’re willing to sacrifice a lot for the company
“Haha! I’m not losing anything. She’s quite attractive, but too bad she’s a married woman” After saying this, he glanced at the bottle of wine as his eyes darkened. However, he was still unable to hide the smile on his lips. “Tell me, how much did you put in this drink? I hope I can handle it; I’m forty after all
“Don’t worry! I’ve read the message you sent me. I’ve added just enough. You’re in your prime, so there’s no doubt you can handle it”
Hayden put the cut steak on his plate, then patted Gabriel on the shoulder, “Gabriel, no wonder you’re doing so well in the company! You’re a smart one!” Even though Gabriel had managed to restrain his ulterior motives, it didn’t mean he didn’t want to use Dorothy to curry favor with his boss.
After all, if anything happened, he had Hayden, a senior execute, to take the fall. If not, he could please his boss. It was a win win situation.
