Chapter 74

“Nothing, I noticed you as soon as you walked in. Care to drink with me?” the man said, handing her a

glass of red wine.

Aurelia glanced at the wine glass and smiled politely, “I’m sorry, but I’m working right now and can’t

drink.”

People who frequently organized events like her often found themselves expected to drink, especially

when clients came over with glasses for a toast. They relied on their clients for their salary and usually

wouldn’t refuse.

Yet, they also had their experience and would avoid drinking any alcohol offered by others. Not out of

suspicion but as a means of self–preservation.

“Then how come your colleagues can drink? Aren’t you disrespecting the guests?” In an arrogant tone,

he pointed toward Kimberly, who resembled a delicate butterfly.

Aurelia pursed her lips, realizing she couldn’t afford to offend him. It seemed like she would have to

take this glass of wine, but she noticed a passing waiter out of the corner of her eye.

She reached out and stopped the waiter, taking a glass of champagne with a smile. “I appreciate your

offer, but I don’t really drink red wine. Cheers.”

The man’s expression stiffened, and he had no choice but to clink glasses and drink. After finishing the

drink, Aurelia put down her glass and said, “Excuse me.”

She turned and walked away, but the man’s gaze didn’t leave her.

Aurelia couldn’t understand why he wasn’t more interested in a beautiful woman like Kimberly. Why

was he staring at her? She was wearing her work uniform today. Could it be that he was too drunk to

see clearly?

She didn’t think too much about it and continued to patrol the venue, checking the

microphones and making sure the gifts from the event organizers were properly arranged. In no time,

she had forgotten about the foreign man.

As the event neared toward the end, she felt the urge to use the restroom. She headed to the restroom

on the first floor.

Since it wasn’t too crowded today, she did not need to wait in line. She quickly finished and walked out

of the restroom, only to be blocked by a figur

“Little bunny.”

“Huh? Sir, you’ve got the wrong person,”

Aurelia felt a chill down her spine at the sight of the person blocking her path. He was the same

foreigner who had invited her for a drink earlier. She immediately took a step back, trying to walk away.

However, the foreign man grabbed her arm, speaking in a greasy tone, “David, call me David.” Aurelia

gave him an annoyed look.

“Please let go of me. You’re drunk.”

Aurelia tried to defuse the situation and protect their mutual dignity. However, he didn’t stop; instead, he

continued to be presumptuous.

“Little bunny, no need to play games. I know you’re after money, and I have plenty of it. I’ve got a thing

for women like you, with that jet–black hair and that fair skin.”

“I need money? Who told you that?” Aurelia had a bad feeling about this.

“That’s not important. After finishing this drink, we can head upstairs and relax.

Aurelia finally realized that the man was holding another glass of red wine in his other hand. It

resembled blood and had clearly been tampered with.

She started to struggle. “Let go of me.

Despite wearing a suit, the man was significantly larger than her. No matter how hard she struggled,

she couldn’t break free. Instead, she felt her wrist bones ache.

Realizing that she couldn’t escape, she began shouting for help. “Help… Ah!”

The man forcefully pulled Aurelia closer and started trying to force–feed her the red wine. While

intoxicated, he was incredibly strong and seemed to be driven by madness.

“I heard you’re into tough guys. Do I look tough enough for you?”

“Mmm–mm–mmm!”

Aurelia widened her eyes and tightly closed her lips, determined not to let him pour the wine into her

mouth. She desperately wondered who this person could be.
