Lacey waved her hands and explained herself immediately, “That's not what I mean...” Lacey waved her hands and explained herself immediately, “That's not what I mean...”

Shirleen replied, “If that's not what you have in mind, finish the drink! I'll drain my glass first!”

She gulped the glass of drink down right after she finished her sentence.

Emily smiled and finished her glass of drink as well.

They turned around and looked at Lacey after they had finished their drinks.

Lacey had a helpless look on her face. She had no choice but to brace herself and finish the drink as requested.

She started to cough because of the tingling sensation she felt coming from her throat after she gulped down the drink. After all, she didn't drink alcohol daily.

Shirleen rolled her eyes and murmured to herself again, “Weak!”

She poured another glass of drink and said, “Lacey, don't you think you owe Emily another glass of drink? I mean, you should apologize for what you've done, don't you think?”

Lacey was confused and asked, “Apologies? I've never upset her before!”

Shirleen sneered, “Hmph! You hit on your best friend's husband during her wedding ceremony and snatched him away from her. Don't you think that's too much?”

Lacey became edgy again when she heard Shirleen's words. “That's not the case, Shirleen! Whatever you have in mind isn't what happened back then!”

Shirleen stood her ground and replied, “I don't care! You can't deny the fact that Emily's ex-boyfriend is now your husband! You owe her that much! A glass of drink is the least you can offer to atone for your sin!”

Emily interrupted their conversation. “Forget about it, Shirleen! It's not Lacey's fault!” Locey woved her honds ond exploined herself immediotely, “Thot's not whot I meon...”

Shirleen replied, “If thot's not whot you hove in mind, finish the drink! I'll droin my gloss first!”

Emily finished another glass of drink right after she finished her sentence.

Meanwhile, Lacey was stumped because she couldn't hold her liquor well.

She was afraid she would be drunk after another glass of drink.

Shirleen yelled at her once again, “Lacey! Emily has already finished her glass of drink to prove her sincerity! Don't you think you should at least return the favour?”

Lacey had to brace herself to swallow another glass of liquor as she was left with no other options.

She could barely pull herself together after two glasses. Lacey's mind was all over the place as her vision turned blurry.

Shirleen asked, “Lacey, they've told me about your husband. Is it true that he's been living off you?”

“Why on earth did you accept him as your spouse? I can't help but sympathize with you!”

“Emily, you should be glad he had chosen Lacey instead!”

Lacey immediately tried to defend Zeke. “Shirleen, you've misunderstood Zeke! Although he's just an executive of my company, he's a capable man!”

“If it weren't because of him, I might still be working in some random factory now.” C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
