His Dangerous Love novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44 Seduction

"This glass of wine was made especially for you. Are you refusing to drink it because you dislike me?"

Nola gazed at the wine on the tray. Without even picking it up, she could smell the pungent odor of alcohol.

She already had three glasses, each more potent than the one before it.

The last one felt like it was burning a hole in her gut. Fighting the impulse to puke had sapped all of her energy.

But Alicia wanted her to drink more.

The waiter brought the wine closer to Nola, making it impossible for her to avoid.

She looked at Alicia and said, "Alicia, I really can't drink anymore."

Nola's face was flushed from the drink, and her sluggish stance irritated Alicia even more.

Is this how she seduced Jefferson?

Alicia's rage about Jefferson's dismissal was channeled to Nola.

"Drink it up!" Alicia shouted, pointing to her nose.

"No, let me go, let me go."

All the female guests were taken aback when they saw the bodyguard detain Nola.

Although there were disagreements in the upper-class social circle, everyone preserved their dignity and only made sarcastic remarks.

Alicia was the first to resort to physical assault.

Being so pompous was unheard of.

Elianna couldn't stand by and watch Nola's mouth be forced open.

"Alicia."

Elianna stepped in front of the bodyguard, who would pour the wine. "Nola can't handle alcohol. Why don't I drink this glass for her?"

It has nothing to do with being a hero. They were both Gentry family tools, but Nola was the ace, and Elianna was a nobody.

If Mrs. Gentry discovered she had stood by idly, her punishment would be far more severe than simply having a glass of wine.

Furthermore, given her relationship with Jefferson, it wasn't unjust for her to sip from this glass.

"And who are you?" Alicia questioned, looking at Elianna.

"My name is Elianna, and I am the Larsen family's daughter-in-law. I greeted you at the banquet earlier."
