The glass was already in my hand, and she was too enthusiastic to refuse. It would've seemed too unfriendly for me to do so. I couldn't help it. I had to drink.

But before I could, a hand reached out and took the glass away. I looked back and saw that Hendrix had already emptied the glass.

He stared blankly for a moment before Dahlia spoke up flirtatiously. "Mr. Roberts, are you a hero trying to save a damsel in distress?" As she spoke, her smile felt somewhat discomforting. A gorgeous woman might've masked their intentions better behind a dazzling smile. However, Dahlia's plain features made her insidious intentions come across clearly.

"Mr. Roberts, Arianna and I are good friends. We have known each other for so long, but I had not heard that she knew such a handsome man. Why don't we have a drink? Get to know each other. We could set a date to hang out next time!" It was an ordinary social invitation.

Hendrix looked down at me, and his eyes darkened slightly. I didn't know what he was thinking, but he took another glass, gulped it down, and said, "As Arianna's friend, I'll leave her in your care from now on." Hearing these words, Dahlia was slightly lost in thought. It seemed that this was Hendrix's first direct interaction with her. "Mr. Roberts, don't worry. Arianna and I are friends who have gone through life and death together. I will definitely take good care of her."

This stunned Hendrix. He looked at me. "Is that true?"

I didn't want to reply, and pursed my lips in silence.

But Dahlia picked up on Hendrix's interest. "Yes, we were taken to Myanway together. A lot of things happened and we almost lost our lives. Fortunately, we escaped from death and came back safely. It made us close friends."
