A Crazy One-night Stand

Chapter 12: Drunk on Alcohol



Chapter 12: Drunk on Alcohol

...

A text message came in.

Reading the text message, a woman's cold and ruthless voice spoke up. "Alina Miller, I going to make

you pay!"

She replied to the text. "I don't think tonight is the right time. Continue reporting to me about her

whereabouts!"

It was indeed hard to do anything with so many people at the barbecue. At the very least, it was hard to

do it without being noticed and without leaving a trace.

Mia felt a little relieved after reading the text message. She could enjoy her dinner in peace tonight. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Modern barbecue was a self-serviced, buffet-style restaurant. Alina was in charge of the grill.

As for the beer, she ordered several cartons immediately.

There were four or five male colleagues in the design department, all of them could hold their liquor.

Other female colleagues were quite good drinkers as well.

Although Alina had lower tolerance to alcohol, she let herself loose that day. While she waited for the

meat to cook, she had a few drinks with her colleagues. Rosie was allergic to alcohol, so she was the

designated driver for the night. Alina knew if she got a little tipsy, Rosie will send her home.

Everyone ate their fill. After that, they started playing drinking games, the loser would down their

glasses. Rosie was the referee to prevent cheating since she couldn't drink. Everybody was having a

great time.

Alina was busy at the grill when she suddenly saw two familiar figures walking past her. It was Ken and

Anne.

Ken was wearing a tailored suit that showed off his slender figure. Alina's heart twinged with pain when

she saw Ken again. She remembered the past when they were still together, Ken loved to hug her

warmly. He was affectionate and always said sweet things like, "Alina, I can't bear to be apart from you

for even a minute. What should I do?

"I really don't want to take over my family business. If I do that, I can't spend more time with you!

"Dearest, I love you so much. I can't wait any longer to marry you.

"Why don't we secretly register our marriage?"

...

Her heart ached at the sad memories. Her mood suddenly became depressed. It had been three years,

but everything seemed like it just happened yesterday. Even though Ken had betrayed her and had a

child with Anne, Alina couldn't move on. The heart wants what it wants. There's no logic to those

things.

"Alina, come on!" Rosie shouted excitedly, "You can stop cooking now. Everyone is full!"

"Alright, I'm coming!" Alina immediately agreed and looked back at the couple. Both of them were gone

as if they had disappeared into thin air. Only Alina knew the agony she went through when she caught

a glimpse of the couple together.

"Alina, you are the host for today. Don't try to avoid drinking with us! Come on, today is a memorable

occasion. Let's get wasted!" Jenny handed Alina a bottle of beer.

Alina took the bottle. Rosie tried to stop her. "Alina, are you sure? You can't hold your liquor!"

Alina smiled and replied, "It's not a big deal. I can handle two or three bottles!"

"Geez, Rosie. Don't be a spoilsport. You are allergic to alcohol but Alina isn't. Just let her drink as much

as she wants today. She needs a little more fun in her life!" Jenny chided.

"Cheers!" Alina had already sat down. She took up the beer bottle and downed it in one gulp.

Seeing this, Jenny was stunned and could not help exclaiming, "Wow, Alina, seems like you are a good

drinker as well, I never knew that. Come on, Mia, Mark, and Zoey. Let's drink to our hearts' content!"

"All right!"

"Alina, cheers! Thanks for your treat today!"

"Alina, here's another bottle for you!"

"Come on, Alina, down the whole bottle!"

Alina joined in with her colleagues, downing one bottle after another. Soon, her face turned red and her

eyes glazed over. Her vision blurred and everything around her seemed to be spinning.

"Alina, you can't drink anymore!" Rosie quickly took the bottle from her hand.

"Nonsense, I'm not drunk!" She wasn't drunk. Why wasn't she when she had drank so much? Ken's

words were still ringing in her mind, her past memories were still so vivid. She couldn't forget the man

who betrayed her!
