Grace was infuriated after hearing Roger's words and witnessing his performance. How could he even have the audacity to say that he came from a long line of drinkers? Frederick wasn't even drunk, yet Roger couldn't drink anymore.No wonder, his family all drank till their deaths! They deserved it!"Roger, you're a useless bastard!" Roger felt wronged as he listened to Grace's cruel words. If he was allowed to go to the bathroom, he could probably drink a bit more.Although it seemed like Grace and Michael were digging a hole for Frederick, they were just digging a hole for him!At that moment, Michael smiled and stood up. Ever since Roger had said that they should all work together to get Frederick drunk as well as Grace and Roger's intimate behavior after calling him to get into Priscilla's car, Michael had deduced Grace's plan.He was sure Grace wanted to avenge Mitchell. So, she'd asked Roger to get Frederick drunk, promising to be his girlfriend in return.One had to ad
When Michael said that, Ivy's face fell. Anyone who knew how to drink would know how potent it was to mix beer and liquor. It would easily make a person drunk.Since Frederick had just drunk so much beer, he would instantly get drunk if he drank liquor now! Ivy wanted to tell him about it, but Grace was watching her closely. She knew if she said anything, Grace would stop her with some domineering words.As the director, she didn't need to be afraid of what Grace would say at all. However, the company was in chaos at that moment. She really wanted to keep Grace and Priscilla in check and prevent them from making a scene.Anya was part of the reason why she was hesitating. Ivy was told to solve the conflict at the company herself, and she really didn't want to disappoint Anya. So, she had no choice but to feel antsy at the side.At that moment, Grace secretly gave Michael a thumbs up. She had to admit that he was smart for thinking about mixing the alcohol. She also believed that Fr
When Michael saw that, he was shocked. He couldn't believe Frederick was still able to finish a whole glass of liquor in one shot after drinking so much beer.After Frederick was done drinking, he placed a glass of liquor in front of Michael and said with a smile, "It's your turn!"Michael gulped slightly as he looked at the liquor in front of him. Although he hadn't drunk a single drop of alcohol yet, he wasn't good enough to drink such a glass of liquor right away!Grace could tell he was hesitating, and she softly said, "Don't worry. He has drunk so much so far, and I'm sure he's almost at his limit. He probably just wants to scare you with his actions. Just think about it. How could Frederick possibly not be drunk when even Roger couldn't handle it with his tolerance?"Just drink it through gritted teeth like it's some kind of poison and swallow it right away. Then, you'll get through it."Michael looked back at Roger. The latter had his hand on his crotch as he held back his
"What do you mean by shameless?"Priscilla stood behind the people from Team Two. Not only did they not feel sorry when Melissa exposed what they were doing, but they were actually feeling angry. They all glared at her like she was accusing them of something they didn't do.When she heard what Priscilla said, she smiled. "You're shameless for ganging up and picking on a single person! What's wrong? Are you afraid of admitting what you're doing?"Priscilla was so angry that her face turned red. She did tell Grace to get someone to make Frederick drunk. However, she only did that because she thought Frederick and Ivy had set Mitchell up.She thought Frederick was the one being shameless there. However, she couldn't say what was on her mind. So, she had no choice but to let Melissa accuse her.Although Priscilla wasn't a big shot anymore, most people still wouldn't dare to offend her after she came to Timbergale Corporation. No one would talk to her like that. She gritted her teeth a
Grace was instantly anxious when she saw the women of Team One standing in front of Frederick. If they were all going to help him drink, it would be hard for her to get him drunk."What… What are you guys doing?"The women from Team One couldn't take it anymore after watching Team Two's members trying to get Frederick drunk. So, they all came out to help him. After all, he was their team leader. He also treated them well and shared the reward with them on his first day of work.That was why they couldn't let it slide when they saw Team Two ganging up on Frederick."What? Since you're all trying to get our team leader drunk, we'll be helping him with the drinks.""That's right. You guys want to drink, right? Join us if you dare!"The people from Team Two were furious when they saw what was going on. Since the team was full of men, they had always been more domineering.There were only two women on their team, which were Priscilla and Grace. However, they were both out of the men'
Was Frederick planning on drinking with every single person on the opposite team and finishing all the liquor in front of him? They thought it was impossible.Grace pursed her lips in disdain from the side. She thought he was bluffing and was confident she could mess with him badly that day.Melissa, who was drinking with Priscilla, quickly stood in front of him after seeing how everyone was making him drink."Grace, do you think you're so great for making Frederick drink nonstop? Let me take a quick toilet break, and I'll show you what's great after I come back and start drinking!"As she spoke, she burped a little. Since she had drunk a few bottles herself, she felt the need to visit the restroom a little.When Grace heard what Melissa said, she suddenly got excited and stopped the latter. "We all agreed no one could go to the toilet. If you go, you'll be admitting defeat and won't be able to help him drink anymore. Also, we'll only let you go after you bark like a dog."When e
When Grace heard Frederick's sarcastic words, her face fell. She was also secretly amazed by his impressive alcohol tolerance at the same time. It finally made sense to her why he would dare to drink with everyone.However, she was the one who made it a rule. Now that Frederick was being sarcastic about it, she really couldn't just let it slide.She glared at Michael and angrily said, "He's giving you a toast, so drink now. Are you going to make him think that my words mean nothing?"When Michael heard what she said, he was afraid of her being angry. So, he bit the bullet and poured the drink into his mouth with his eyes shut.After forcing himself to drink two gulps, he couldn't endure the burning sensation in his throat anymore. In the end, he spat out more than half of the glass' worth of liquor. He didn't care about the people watching him anymore as he heaved at the side.Frederick smiled when he saw how Michael was acting. Then, he looked toward the people from Team Two. The
When Roger heard that, his eyes lit up. Even if he couldn't get Frederick drunk, Grace had promised to be his girlfriend. He figured it was a great deal and instantly became excited again. As long as he didn't die, he would keep drinking and challenge Frederick.When Grace saw how excited he was again, she stood forward with him. "Mr. York, since I can't drink liquor, I'll just drink some wine instead. Roger, you like liquor, right? You should drink some with Mr. York."She figured there was no way Frederick wouldn't get drunk after drinking three types of alcohol that day.When Roger heard what she had said, he quickly nodded. He wasn't afraid of mixing alcohol anymore because he would still win her regardless of the outcome. If worse came to worst, he would just have to visit the hospital the next day.Of course, Frederick knew what she was up to. However, he wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he just said with a smile, "Sure!"Soon, they started drinking again. The crowd watched in
Mary's case was the most severe, while Ivan's symptoms were the mildest, and Frederick could roughly deduce the sequence of transmissions among them. It was clear that Mary infected Nigel, who then passed it to Kimberly, then finally passed it to Ivan. Frederick also saw that Ivan was actually a decent person who unfortunately ended up being betrayed and infected. However, Nigel was primarily worried that Ivan might start trusting Frederick, as he wanted Ivan to believe in his capabilities to carry out his plan.Originally, he intended for Mary to insult Frederick for being poor and unskilled, but she ended up attacking him for having an unpleasant odor, which backfired when Frederick exposed her for contracting syphilis. Now, Nigel had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, he then said to Frederick, "Hehe, Frederick. We all know Ivy is a director, what exactly do you do to be worthy of her?"Nigel assumed that Frederick was just a low-level salesperson, something
Hearing Frederick's words, Kimberly jumped with joy and stopped crying. While wiping her tears, she pointed at Mary, laughing and said, "You're covered in syphilis, yet you're making fun of me.""Slut, I wonder how many people you've slept with!" After being pointed and insulted, Mary was furious and she was ready to fight Kimberly. "You bitch! I am going to teach you a lesson!" At this moment, Nigel felt terrible. If Mary was diseased, he'd be the first victim. He grabbed Mary and shouted, "Bitch, let me teach you a lesson first. Now I know why you always wanted the lights off! I thought you were shy, but you just didn't want me to find out."In a fit of anger, Nigel slapped Mary hard across the face. Just as Mary was about to explain, she was interrupted by another slap. Holding her face, she yelled angrily, "Nigel, how dare you hit me?! Do you want me to expose all your little schemes and tricks?"Nigel froze in horror; if Mary exposed him, it would have been disastrous.
Kimberly heard her laughter, and body odor had always been a sensitive issue for her; a wound she'd tried to cover up over the years. For Frederick to bring it up in front of everyone felt like rubbing salt into an open wound. Yet what hurt even more was Mary's laughter; as a fellow woman, it felt like salt to the wound, then roasting it. Kimberly was furious, pointed at Mary and said, "What are you laughing at? Do you want me to come over there and shut you up?"Mary felt wronged, she had only let out a reflexive laugh, but now Kimberly's anger was directed at her. "Did I laugh at you? What proof do you have that I laughed at you?""You're the one with body odor, yet you're taking it out on others. You're such an unreasonable woman!"Kimberly grew even angrier after hearing Mary's retort. "You're the one with body odor, your whole family has it!" "Look at what you're wearing, it's like you just threw on two pillowcases. You're a shameless woman, just trying to show off t
When everyone heard Ivy's words, they laughed even more. Her words effectively confirmed that Frederick did indeed have an unpleasant odor. It wasn't entirely her fault as Kimberly's words had been a bit of a trap. "Haha, if you smell, just take a shower and don't embarrass yourself here.""With all that cheap stuff on, no wonder he has a smell."Hearing this, Frederick simply gave a slight smile and then asked Mary and Kimberly, "Are two really that fragrant?"Mary and Kimberly lifted their heads proudly after hearing Frederick's words. "Why don't you ask everyone here, ask them if we smell good or not?""Exactly, go ahead and ask."Both of them considered themselves beautiful, and of course, they would smell pleasant. The men around them quickly chimed in, especially those eager to admire Mary, who was dressed in a way that gave them a bit of eye candy. "Of course, they smell good. How could these two beautiful ladies not smell good?""Hehe, Frederick with his cheap, th
In a hidden corner, Nigel said to Mary, "Damn it, that bumpkin Frederick keeps stealing my spotlight. I am worried that our plan won't go well later.""You should help me humiliate him properly, and Ivan's girlfriend will back you up."Mary pursed her lips and said to Nigel, "Every time something comes up, you just ask me to handle it. My bag hasn't been bought yet, and you've lost 300 thousand dollars"Although Nigel was annoyed by Mary hitting a sore spot, he kept his tone calm and replied, "Help me humiliate Frederick and talk him down in front of Ivan. After that, leave the rest to me. Once it's done, I'll get you more than one bag, I could get you ten bags and it wouldn't be a problem. I don't care about that small amount of money. You saw that Porsche just now, right? I wouldn't mind burning it if I had to." Hearing this, Mary was delighted and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you, babe." She hadn't realized that Nigel was so wealthy and even had a Porsche. Up until th
Knowing Martin as someone who knew a lot about wood, everyone immediately looked as though they were ready for a good show. They were convinced that the Saint George statue couldn’t possibly be made of anything valuable.Martin let out a strange exclamation. "What the hell!"Kimberly, thinking that Martin was angry, quickly said, "Mr. Lawson, tell us what’s so disastrous about this wood. Are you saying it’s just a piece of junk?"Contrary to expectations, Martin replied angrily, "I’m saying that whoever preserved this Saint George statue was a jerk. This is genuine sandalwood, and yet it’s completely neglected, covered in dust."Most of the group had no idea what sandalwood was worth, but judging by the name alone, it sounded impressive.Kimberly asked curiously, "Mr. Lawson, are you saying this is really antique wood?"Martin examined the statue carefully, scrutinizing every detail. "Judging by the texture, this carving must have been made at least 150 years ago."Everyone was
"The Saint George statue was indeed a fitting choice for a karaoke." Nigel chuckled, turning to Ivy.“Why didn’t you just go on Amazon and buy a new one for a few dozen bucks? This one is obviously second-hand. Or was it picked up from some junk stall?”Frederick heard Nigel’s mockery and nodded in agreement, a faint smile on his lips. “You’re not wrong. This statue actually was picked up from a street stall.”“At the Treasure Hall in the antique trade market, no less. And yes, it’s an antique.”The truth was, the statue was from the Victorian era. Even the owner of Treasure Hall, Dominic, had recognized its age but dismissed it as worthless, tossing it onto a stall outside.Frederick had picked it up casually, thinking it would come in handy one day, and now it was the perfect gift for Ivan.Hearing this, Nigel burst out laughing, clutching his stomach. “An antique? Treasure Hall? You’re really trying to fool us.”Kimberly chimed in, her tone dripping with sarcasm as she glance
The group’s attention was fully captured by Frederick’s words, their eyes all on him. Nigel, knowing that Kimberly had informed Ivy at the last minute and that she likely didn’t have a gift, sneered at Frederick."Well, if you’ve got a gift, go ahead and show it.""Considering Ivy and Kimberly’s relationship, the gift should be pretty decent, right?"Everyone was now staring at Frederick with anticipation, curious to see what kind of gift he could produce.Ivy, on the other hand, was completely flustered. She hadn’t handed any gift to Frederick, though she understood he was trying to help her out of a tough spot. But wasn’t this making things even more awkward?Nigel continued to press him, "Where’s the gift? Come on, take it out already.""After all this time, you still can’t take it out. Don’t tell me you don’t even have one."Frederick glanced at Nigel with a calm smile. "Oh? Are you planning to bet 300 grand with me again?"Nigel froze. There was no way he had another 300 t
Ivan was deeply moved, feeling as though all the unpleasantness from their school days had been swept away. A sense of childhood nostalgia, unique to old classmates, welled up within him.The crowd continued to shower Nigel with praise, giving him thumbs up one after another."A gift worth 10 grand is no small amount. Nigel is truly generous.""That’s right. These days, even classmates hesitate to prepare gifts, but Nigel has shown such generosity.."Most of the attendees had come because of their connection with Kimberly. Each had prepared gifts with costs ranging from a few hundred dollars. Compared to Nigel’s grandiose gift worth 10 thousand, their contributions paled in comparison.Hearing the compliments, Nigel waved his hand dismissively, feigning modesty. "It’s nothing, really. After all, Ivan and I are good friends from way back."Then, Nigel’s expression shifted slightly as he added, "Speaking of good friends, I’m sure it’s not just me and Ivan here who share a special b
