Chapter 111 Someone Wants to Drug Huston
Although Huston looked arrogant and had the initiative, he was not in a good mood either.
Especially now, when he saw Evelyn sitting next to Joey, the killing intent in his eyes was about to overflow.
However, he had no choice but to hold it in.
Matt sneered in his heart, “You deserve it! You can’t deal with her, but you still put on airs. You are punished now. And you will hurt sooner or later!”
Matt ignored Huston and chatted with Tony and Joey from time to time. Occasionally, Huston would interrupt them with a few words or he would be asked for some opinions.
Evelyn always intentionally or unintentionally glanced at
Huston. But unfortunately, she had never found a chance to
talk to him alone.
She didn’t forget why she was here. When she was anxious, a slightly exaggerated male voice rang out.
35 Shelton, how well do you handle alcohol?” Joey suddenly moved closer to her and whispered in her ear.
The man’s strange scent wafted into her nose. She had been looking in Huston’s direction when she was startled. Her body trembled slightly.
Joey felt it. He raised his hand and touched her back intentionally or unintentionally, asking, “Are you all right?”
She took a seat to the side, evading his touch with ease. She raised her hand to brush her hair behind her ear and spoke softly, “It’s okay. I just need to use the bathroom.“”
She casually found an excuse and fled out of the private
room.
In less than half a minute after she left, Huston finished the wine in his glass and followed her out.
Joey looked at Matt in confusion and asked, “What’s wrong with President Lloyd?”
Matt narrowed his eyes and smiled cunningly. He mourned for Joey silently for two seconds in his heart and then said, “You scared the little girl. President Lloyd goes to comfort her.”
Joey looked pale suddenly and stammered, “I… I don’t know. I
don’t know that she and…”
“Don’t panic, I didn’t say anything.” After saying that, Matt laughed, which made Joey scared.
Tony swallowed his saliva aside, thinking, “Fortunately, I didn’t try to chat her up just now.”
After escaping from the uncomfortable atmosphere in the private room, Evelyn stood in front of the basin, put her hand under the tap, and let the cold water wash the throbbing veins
on her wrist.
She lowered her head and thought of Huston’s lukewarm attitude just now.
She thought that Huston was usually indifferent enough, but she didn’t expect that it was just the tip of the iceberg. When
this man was determined to ignore someone, he was really
aloof.
Since she appeared, he had rarely looked at her, as if he had
not noticed her at all.
She looked up at herself in the mirror. Her palm–sized face
was put on delicate light makeup, and the black suit wrapped
her figure perfectly. But at this time, she was not confident. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Just as she was lost in thought, the sound of rushing water suddenly came from the closed toilet behind her. Then she heard the woman deliberately lower her voice, saying, “Hey, Jennifer Henderson is here today. Did you see her?”
Another person echoed, “Yes, she’s dressed in such a high–profile manner that I can’t pretend to be blind.”
“Do you know why she’s here?”
“How would I know? There’s no one playing with her now. She has such a bad personality.” After saying that, the woman paused and said uncertainly, “But I heard that she came
because of Huston.”
“Huston?”
Evelyn didn’t want to eavesdrop, but when she was about to
leave, she heard his name.
“That’s right. I heard from my friend that Jennifer is planning to capture Huston tonight, but I don’t know what tricks she’s playing.”
“How could Huston like her? Unless she drugged him,” the woman said indignantly. “She wouldn’t really do that, would
she?”
“Hey, now that you mention it, I remember that she seems to
have bought medicine from a friend of mine. Do you think she would…”
Evelyn was no longer in the mood to listen to their
conversation.
