After Clark sat down, he felt his head grow heavy. He smiled faintly and said, “This wine is a bit too strong”

Martha quickly replied, “Then don’t drink it, you can’t risk anything before tomorrow.”

Clark was moved by her care and said, “Alright, once I’m free, I’ll invite everyone for a drink.”

“Sounds good,” Martha smiled.

Braden, who had been watching him closely, noticed Clark shaking his head repeatedly and asked, “Clark, are you alright?”

Clark raised his hand to his head and said, “I think I’ve had too much, I can’t drink anymore.”

He stood up, but the dizziness grew worse. Though his alcohol tolerance wasn’t exceptional, he could usually handle at least half a jug. He’d only had a sip of the wine earlier.

Braden exchanged a glance with Jocelynn, who quickly stood up, offering to help Clark. “Are you sure you’re alright? Let me help you lie down. Wow, you really can’t handle your liquor.”

Clark felt even dizzier and his vision blurred, but he stepped back, trying to maintain composure. “I’m fine, I’ll walk on my own.”

However, as soon as he took a step, he collapsed onto the floor with a loud thud.

Martha burst into laughter, “Hah, ugly things always make a scene. He really thought we liked him?”

Braden stood up with a cold expression, walking over to Clark. He spat on Clark’s head, sneering, “What a joke. Just a bastard, thinking he could enter the Parliamentary Library and one–up me? Watch how I take

He stomped on Clark’s face, speaking through clenched teeth, “I’ve always wanted to drag him down like this, step on him, crush him so he’ll never get up.”

Kameron stood up with a shrug, saying, “Mr. Langley, my business is finished. Now, it’s time for my dear friend to handle his part.”
