Raymond was dizzy after vomiting a lot in the bathroom for a while. He then limped back to the room while feeling dizzy, and he grabbed the door frame so that he could stand up. “Urgh… I’m dizzy… I’ll leave first!”
“Don’t leave!” Talitha got up to hold him. “Raymond, Valeria will come to pick you up soon. Sit down and wait for a while.”
“Huh? Who told you to call her?” Raymond frowned when he heard Valeria’s name.
“She called you not long ago. You seemed to be uncomfortable, so I told her about it. She said that she would come to pick you up because she was worried.”
“Hah… mind your own business. Why did you tell her? I’m in trouble now!”
“Why? Will your dad scold you?” Talitha replied.
“No… he won’t bother to scold me.”
“Then, will grandpa do it? But I don’t think so since he cares you so much.”
“No… it’s not the both of them… William… William will scold me.” Raymond said slowly.
“What? Why would he scold you? You’re Valeria’s older brother, so shouldn’t he be more respectful? How dare he to do so?”
“Duh! What do you know? He… is different from us!”
“Really?” She smiled and glanced at Paisley, who was next to her. “Haha! Raymond is drunk, so he’s spouting nonsense now.”
Paisley’s eyes widened as she heard his words. She smiled and handed him a bottle of water. “William is a playboy, right? He loves to play and gamble, so there’s nothing special about him, right?”
“That’s what you see… but you don’t understand… He… is different! You’ll be shocked if you know the truth.”
“Are you kidding? Tell me, Raymond, why do your dad and grandpa favour him so much?” Talitha had always been curious about it, so she immediately questioned him when William was mentioned.
“I… I can’t tell you!”
“F*ck! You’re hiding it on purpose, aren’t you? He’s a playboy and a useless heir, so why would we be surprised? Many people are more talented than him, such as Hardy. William is handsome, but he’s just a failure!” Talitha scoffed as she looked down on William.
After hearing how Talitha was criticizing William, Raymond could not endure any longer. “Hardy? Haha, he’s not good looking. Willia’s so much better than him!”
Hardy was unhappy as Raymond had criticized him right in his face. In fact, he always believed that he was better than William, but he knew that it was pointless to argue with a drunk man like Raymond.
Hardy got up to sit at another table. He had drunk too much, so he had a headache. At first, he wanted to leave, but he decided to stay because he wanted to meet Valeria.
Talitha had her own plans tonight. Not only did she invite Valeria so she could humiliate her, but she also invited Hardy because she had a crush on him!
It had taken a lot of effort to invite Hardy here, but now, Raymond had upset Hardy by saying that William was more good-looking than him. Therefore, Talitha was unhappy with how things had escalated.
When she saw Hardy rubbing his temples in frustration, she immediately followed him and comforted him, “He is drunk, so don’t mind him. William is a famous coward. Haha! He’s not even qualified to compare with you!”
His expression did not change even Talitha was trying to butter him up. If William was not as good as him, why would Valeria still love William very much? Why didn’t she pay attention to him at all?
He had thought that Valeria was interested in William because the latter was good-looking. So, why did Archer and Gavin accept such a useless brat like William even though they were such influential people?
Was it because Valeria liked him? Then, what was Raymond trying to say just now? A drunk person always told the truth, so he was sure that Raymond knew more than he did. Thus, Hardy felt that William could be more powerful than he had thought.
Talitha, who was next to him, didn’t know what he was thinking about. She then poured a glass of juice for him enthusiastically. “Here. Would you like some juice?”
“Thank you.” Hardy reached out to take the cup, but he didn’t expect her to put the glass in his mouth instead.
He was so shocked and immediately blocked her using his hands. Then, the juice spilled all over Talitha’s body.
“I’m sorry!” He apologized.
Juice covered Talitha’s body, and she wore an unhappy expression on her face. She had seduced him with courage, but she didn’t expect him to be so cold. After all, she was a rich girl and not a s*ut. This was too embarrassing!
She went to the bathroom to clean her outfit. Meanwhile, Hardy felt disgusted when he looked at her back.
On the other side, Paisley sat next to Raymond and tried to get information from him. She had always suspected William’s identity, so this was a chance for her to find out the truth because Raymond was finally drunk.
She smiled and said. “I think that William is more good looking than my brother too! After all, William is really different from us.”
“You also know… know about it? Did… did he tell you that?” Raymond asked with a slurred tone.
“Yes, isn’t he the president of Wolf Group? I have known it for a long time.” Paisley lowered his voice.
“Sh*t, when did he tell you? I didn’t know that you were so close with him!” Raymond raised his voice as he was excited.
“Shh! There are too many people here. Let’s talk softer. What if someone overheard our conversation?”
“Alright!” He immediately lowered his voice.
Valeria entered the room and frowned when she saw Paisley and Raymond whispering to each other.
After that, Hardy immediately said when he saw her, “Valeria, you’re here!”
Paisley, who was sitting next to Raymond, raised her head and greeted her with a smile. “Hi, Miss Brown!”
Valeria nodded and walked until she was next to Raymond. “Urgh! Why did you drink so much?”
“I… didn’t drink much…”
“Oh, please! You even can’t speak properly. Are you feeling unwell?” She asked with concern.
“No… Let’s go!” Raymond staggered to stand up.
“Wait a minute!” She stopped him.
“Why…?”
“It’s nothing. Let’s wait a bit before leaving.” Valeria did not tell him the reason. Suddenly, she recalled how close Paisley and Raymond had been sitting as they whispered to each other just now.
She felt uncomfortable after seeing that. When did Paisley and Raymond have such a good relationship?
Didn’t Paisley love William? Why would she suddenly get close to Raymond? This was suspicious!
Wait! Was Paisley trying to get information from Raymond?
