Outside the VIP room, when Nico saw everyone except his boss, as well as Evelyn, had left, he opened the door a little and peeked inside.

When he did, he just so happened to hear Evelyn’s last sentence.

He was so shocked that he went pale. Immediately, he ran to a quiet corridor and called Gwendolyn to inform her what he had heard. If she still doesn’t come, Boss may get drunk and be taken advantage of by another

woman!

Inside the room, Cedrick was still gripping Evelyn’s neck. He sneered, “Do you think you can be compared to her?”

Evelyn’s smile gradually vanished as though she was stung by his words. Besides, she was having difficulty breathing.

Cedrick wasn’t interested in watching her suffer and withdrew his hand. “If you still want to keep your position as the ambassador, I suggest you get out of my face right now!”

Holding her neck, Evelyn coughed a few times before grabbing her bag and exiting the room.

After she was gone, Cedrick glugged down several bottles of wine again. Because he drank too fast, he got drunk quickly.

He removed his gloves almost out of habit and collapsed on the couch, unconscious.

When Gwendolyn arrived, she met Evelyn at the entrance of The Honey Bee.

Beaming, Evelyn greeted her. “What a coincidence, Ms. Harris. You arrived just as the drinking session ended.”

“It’s not a coincidence. I’m here for my man.” Gwendolyn lifted her chin slightly, exuding an arrogant and frigid vibe.

She uttered the last two words with resolve as though she was staking her claim on Cedrick.

Evelyn’s expression changed slightly, though she quickly smiled again. “I’m quite jealous to see how in love you and Mr. Jenson are with each other. I hope the both of you will stay together until the end.”

“We will.” Gwendolyn was aware that Evelyn was being sarcastic, even though she couldn’t discern much information from the latter’s words.

Promptly, Evelyn left without saying another word.
