completely blacked out.
So, from her perspective, she simply couldn’t hold her liquor. She even worried that she might have

Dorothy, I think they spiked your drink Lane finally voiced his suspicion
He wanted to know how the effects of the drug Dorothy was given had worn off
“Spiked my drink?”
“Yes! If you don’t believe me, we can go for a blood test now. They should still be able to detect it.”
Dorothy felt her mind go blank. No matter how hard she thought, she couldn’t remember anything else
from last night.
But one thing she was certain of was that the people from Verity Holdings Limited hadn’t taken
advantage of her.
“Let’s not blow this out of proportion. I’m standing here perfectly fine, arent Dorothy finished her glass
of water, then had a thought. “Did the people from Verity Holdings Limited admit to it?”
It wouldn’t matter if they did or didn’t!
Then we can use this to our advantage. They’d have to sign the contract on our terms, wouldn’t they?”
Dorothy wasn’t oblivious to her own dignity But since they hadn’t succeeded, she had nothing to be
afraid of. Having such leverage in business was deadly Hayden would never risk his reputation or
company
“Dorothy Can you stop thinking about work for once? Lane was on the verge of losing his patience.
“These people had malicious intentions towards you! You should be thinking about making them pay
“Isn’t making them accede to our terms for the collaboration their payment? Noticing that Lane was
getting agitated. Dorothy tried to reassure him. T’m certain I was taken away by a friend, and my friend
is relable”
“So how did the effects of the drug wear off? Lane decided to cut to the chase.
Now it was Dorothy’s turn to be stunned. She hadn’t thought about that.
But surely it couldn’t be that the driver had somehow neutralized the drug? Could it?
After seeing the changing expressions on Dorothy’s face, Lane stepped forward and gripped her wrist.
“Let’s go to the hospital. We can get a blood test and make sure no one touched you last night.”

Tm not going You’re overthinking things. No one touched meli drank so much last night that I bet the
alcohol overpowered the drug
She didn’t even want to think that there was a chance that the driver had done it
“Do you trust your friend that much?”
“Yes! I do!”
Lane clenched his teeth. “Fine, then there’s nothing more for me to say. But you can forget about the
deal with Verity Holdings Limited.” “Why?”
“There’s no Verity Holdings Limited anymore.”
Then what was there left to negotiate?
Dorothy thought he was joking. “Stop messing around. We’re discussing serious matters
Tm serious Verity Holdings Limited declared bankruptcy this morning. Their stocks have plummeted,
shareholders are selling off their shares, and banks have filed lawsuits against them, demanding early
repayment. Hayden has disappeared.”
