Chapter 42: Reborn Through Fire By Kazuya Higan Chapter 42

Chapter 42 I‘ll be There If You Get Drunk The man‘s eyes were so sharp that Kisa panicked. She looked down and sorted out Ariella‘s coat, thinking she had better find an excuse to go out later. “Oh, is this Ariella‘s assistant?” Anthony chuckled all of a sudden. “Yes, she is my assistant. I was afraid that she would be bored at the hotel alone, so I brought her here,” Ariella said.

“This assistant of yours has a really unique look.” A dude on the side gave a sarcastic laugh as he stared at Kisa‘s face.

Ariella immediately felt humiliated. “If you guys think she is an eyesore, I will ask her out.”

Kisa was eager to get out too. But Anthony suddenly laughed. “No, I do think she looks quite distinctive, especially... I think she looks like someone.” With that, he suddenly held out his hand to Kisa.

Kisa was startled and subconsciously took a step back. When Anthony saw her reaction, he found her to be interesting and said lazily, “Since you‘re here, then let‘s sit together. Come over here!” As he spoke, he pushed the other woman beside him away.

Kisa was panicking and did not dare to go over.

Just then, Ariella said, “Why don‘t you sit next to Mr. Mullen? It is a great honor for you to gain Mr.

Mullen‘s favor.”

Kisa had no choice but to go over and sit down after hesitating for a while. As soon as she sat down, Anthony put his arm around her shoulder and smiled frivolously. “Can you drink?”

Kisa hurriedly shook her head. Drinking was akin to suicide in her current condition. She subtly shrugged her shoulders, trying to move away from the man‘s embrace. But Anthony, as if on purpose, took her more and more into his arms. Seeing several women next to her, including Ariella, all had their faces darkened, Kisa‘s heart started to race. ‘As much as Anthony wants to fool around, he shouldn‘t drag me into this.‘

“How can you be an assistant if you can‘t even drink? Not to mention how ugly you are.” Sure enough, someone started to target her. A woman dressed in a sultry way swirled her glass and laughed sarcastically. “Tsk, even the assistant that the bit–part actress hired is so unattractive.

Ariella‘s face reddened with anger upon hearing that. She pushed a glass of wine up in front of Kisa.

“Show them you can drink.” Kisa‘s face changed. “Ariella, I– I really don‘t know how to drink.”

There was an instant burst of contemptuous laughter all around. Ariella felt even more humiliated, and she glared at Kisa and yelled, “Drinking won‘t kill you. Drink it now.” And at that point, the room fell completely silent. Almost everyone‘s eyes were turned this way as Anthony leaned back and watched the drama unfold in front of him. Kisa rubbed her hands together, not knowing what to do. She was not going to live long, and if she drank this wine, she might not even see the sun tomorrow.

“Drink it. Drink it down.” “Drink it down.”

Some people heckled her, and some sneered at Ariella, who was so furious that she gritted her teeth and snapped at Kisa. “Drink it.”

Kisa pursed her lips and stared soberly at the glass of wine, her mind racing, thinking about how to avoid it.

Anthony glanced at her, his eyes flicking back toward some shadowy corner with an evil smile on his face. He suddenly picked up the glass of wine and brought it to Kisa‘s lips. “Baby, it is just a glass of wine. Come on, drink it down. I will be there if you get drunk.”

“No, Mr. Mullen, 1–“.

“I will drink it.”
