Chapter 57
“Sorry, I’m late.” A sweet voice sounded, and everyone’s eyes turned to the entrance.
The woman was dressed in a simple T–shirt and jeans, wearing white sneakers. Even without makeup, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Lydia looked at Astrid’s clothes and then down at her own, feeling a little confused.
Although it was not the same brand, Astrid’s outfit today was very similar to hers. She pulled out her phone and sent a message to Mr. Studer: “She’s wearing a white T–shirt and jeans today. She’ll be out cold soon enough. Have your guy wait outside, as soon as it gets quiet in here, he can come in and take her away.”
After sending the message, Lydia immediately waved at Astrid, “Hey, Astrid, you are here! Come and sit!”
Lydia patted the empty seat next to her, indicating for Astrid to sit down, acting as if she knew Astrid very well.
Astrid gave a small smile, and obediently sat down next to her.
Lydia was very satisfied, and immediately picked up her glass and said, “The rest of us have cooperated before, but Astrid is the first time to cooperate with us, how about we all have a drink with Astrid?”
“Sure, Astrid, nice to meet you.” Everyone raised their glasses to Astrid, and Lydia enthusiastically handed Astrid the wine glass she had prepared.
Astrid didn’t take the glass Lydia offered, but instead grabbed an oversized empty glass next to her, picked up a bottle of beer and poured it into the glass. That look was very confident.
The glass was huge, just enough to hold two bottles of beer. Astrid held up the large wine glass, smiled at everyone, “I’ll drink all the wine in this glass first.”
Then, Astrid looked up and started drinking, quickly draining the large glass of beer..
Everyone was speechless.
