"Who sits next to that babe? Hold up. Ain't that Frank Denz, CEO of Zz Group out of Hatchbay?"

Ryan cocked his eyebrows and raised a sarcastic eyebrow. "I thought Frank was some hermit who's never stepped inside a club in his life. Haha! Has he finally sinned?"

Both Kalus and Ryan mistaken Dean as Frank.

That was because Dera's brothers were actually quadruplets. Among them, Frank and Dean were identical, so people who were unfamiliar with them could not tell them apart.

""Damn! I'm so jealous. That hottie should be my girl. It's a waste for her to be with Frank!" Ryan became more enthusiastic as he spoke.

Downstairs, I was smiling sweetly at Dean.

Kalus just felt annoyed.

Back then, that smile belonged to him alone.

What made it worse was that apparently, the smear online said nothing to her. She was still in the mood to have fun.

Whereas Kalus had been worried all day. He was either busy cleaning up the mess or thinking of how he should explain it to her.

"I should shag her this evening. Sod the fact that she belongs to Frank. I can even score if he has a goal tender!" Ryan moistened his lower lip at the thought.

"Don't tread on her territory. She is my wife"

Ryan's mouth dropped in complete shock. "What!"

"Just ex-wife." Kalus nodded, feeling the fire burn its way down to his throat.

What?! She is your irrational, stupid ex-wife?! Buddy, are you dumb or blind?! I guess you must be both dumb and blind! Just look at her! She is such a treasure! She is a hundred times better than your precious Lydia!

Kalus gave Ryan a cold glare. Ryan poked out his tongue and replied, "Well, I'm only telling the truth. Besides, I asked to see her at the time, but you told me there was no point in that. So I figured she must be ugly. I did not anticipate… Hey! Where are you going?"

Ryan had not finished talking before Kalus took off.

Myself and my second brother, Dean, had several rounds of drinks. My fair cheeks were flushed red.

"Dera, are you alright?" Dean asked, worried, noticing that I was somewhat drunk.

"Roll the dice!" I could handle my liquor, but I was drinking to drown my sorrows intentionally.

At this point, Dean's boss called, so he had to pick up because it might be a case that required urgent attention. He said apologetically, "Dera, wait for me here. I need to answer this call, but I'll be right back."

I waved my hand nonchalantly. "You're dismissed!"

As soon as the "cockblocker" was gone, the men around me gradually approached me, like sharks smelling blood.

My eyelids began twitching. I looked at them, half-interested, half-indifferent, studying them.

I thought, 'This one's too short… This one's too skeletal… Nose bridge too shallow… Eyes too teeny-weeny… No one even begins to match my ex-husband…'

Kalus's appearance proved such a waste, as if he hadn't made an effort to live up to expectations.

This is when I realized that there were guys making a ruckus in the cubicle next to me. This man was compelling the woman to take the drink.

This man whose smile was full of sex was Lydia's brother, Zeke Osita.

What I could not comprehend was the image of a man slyly adding the drug to the drink and handing it to the man who was Zeke.

I was mad. I got up and started walking towards them.

"Yo! What a piece of ass! The young dudes were drooling when they set eyes on me.

As soon as Zeke saw me, he immediately came to the thought that the female in his embrace was suboptimal.

"Mind if we join you gentlemen? You dudes look like you are having quite a time!!!" My boozy look worked well for me.

"We will do whatever you want us to." Zeke licked his lips. His eyes were lecherous.

I took the spiked drink and said, "Easy, just drink it all."

The few people around them fell silent. Zeke's lewd face darkened.

All of them knew that the drink was spiked, so only a fool would drink it.

"Shall I feed you?"

As soon as I said that, I narrowed my almond-shaped eyes and raised my hand to splash the drink on Zeke's face.

Everyone was shocked. The woman by the side shrieked in terror, recoiling.
