Chapter 618
Bride Behind The Mask
Margueriteâs eyes widened in disbelief as she blurted out, âAre you out of your mind? Tequila with no soft drink, are you trying to get smashed?â
âWhat soft drink? Tequila may be strong, but itâs pretty much on par with vodka, Iâve never seen any of you dilute vodka with mixers, always making a fuss over nothing Miley quickly instructed the waitress, âBring a dozen beers and a dozen shots of tequila, please, and hurry it up.â
The waitress swallowed hard in shock.
In all her years of service, she had never seen anyone drink like this.
Mixing beer with liquor like that, they wouldnât even know what hit them when they got drunk!
But the customer is always right, and since the deity had spoken, she had no reason to refuse. She swiftly brought the drinks as Miley had requested, Robert was already feeling a bit down because of the paternity test, but seeing the table full of drinks only sank his spirits further.
With Miley's setup, he feared that before Frederick could get drunk, he might be the first to pass out! But no matter, he steeled himself for what was to come.
He thought to himself as he opened a beer to hand to Frederick, planning to get Frederick drunk gradually, But Miley was quicker, boldly placing a bottle of tequila in front of Frederick.
âMr. Winston, successful folks like you stick to liquor, right? Leave the beer to us ladies, she said with a charming smile, well-
versed in the art of socializing.
Before attempting to persuade him to drink, she made sure to elevate Frederick's status.
Unfortunately, Miley didnât know Frederick well enough to see that he wouldn't fall for her approach.
Frederick elegantly forked a piece of steak into his mouth without even lifting an eyelid, his tone indifferent, âThe one whoâs upset is him, not me.â
Frederick's reaction caught Miley off guard, and her brain froze for a second.
However, she was quick to react and slid the bottle of tequila towards Marguerite instead. âIf Mr. Winston doesnât drink, Marguerite will join us instead.â
Frederick's hand, lightly gripping his cutlery, paused for a moment as he lifted his eyelids and looked piercingly at a distressed Marguerite, Marguerite was at her wit's end, âYou know | canât hold my liquor, and you expect to carry me home?â
âWe donât even live on the same area, why should | carry you? Besides, you live with Mr. Winston, so itâs not my responsibility anyway!â
Marguerite was speechless at her words. She didnât want to drink at all, but her best friend was already gearing up for drinking games, making Marguerite want to flee even more.
She seldom socialized and was completely clueless about drinking games.
Playing these games, she knew she was bound to lose!
But Miley's target wasnât really Marguerite. She planned to get Marguerite a bit tipsy first, then somehow draw Frederick into the game.
So, she proposed the simplest game of rock-paper-scissors.
Marguerite, a good sport, downed the three shots of tequila in one go.
But Miley had no intention of letting her off the hook. Without giving her a moment to recover, she started a new round of games.
Unfortunately, Marguerite lost again.
The three shots of tequila seemed like water from hell itself. Just looking at them made her skin crawl, let alone drink them.
With her little red face drooping, she asked, âCanât we skip the drink? Can | substitute tea for liquor?â
Miley shook her head mercilessly, teasingly saying, âCanât handle it? Then ask for help from the guys~â
