At that time, they had also encountered a potential client who insisted that Luna drink. As her husband, Joshua knew that Luna could not tolerate alcohol very well, so he got angry and wanted to leave the party.
However, Luna was afraid that the Lynch Group would lose a client because of her, so she stood up and downed the entire glass in that instant. Joshua could still remember the pained yet somehow determined expression on his ex-wife's face.
It looked exactly like the expression Luna wore.
Joshua frowned and immediately lowered his head to glance at Alice, who stood right next to him. She watched Luna somewhat triumphantly, with a hint of contempt in her eyes.
Joshua felt like an invisible hand had squeezed his heart. What happened to the Luna Gibson he had fallen in love with? Since when did she turn from the woman who willingly drank and suffered a whole night of vomiting for him into someone who coerced others into drinking against their will?
Luna finished her drink and slammed the empty glass down on the table forcefully. "How’s that, Mr. Scott?"
Mr. Scott stared at Luna’s face, which began to turn red, with a hint of amusement. Then, he let out a chuckle. "Ms. Luna finished that drink, but there's a
catch. Since you made the situation so awkward just now, don't you think you should take another drink as punishment?"
Luna's lips twisted into a smirk. "Mr. Scott, I've told you that I'm very lightweight. If I end up doing something stupid while I’m drunk, will you take responsibility for my actions?"
Mr. Scott was delighted to hear that. He guffawed and replied, "Of course! It's my pleasure to take responsibility for a beautiful lady such as yourself!"
"That's great to hear." Luna smiled and took the glass Mr. Scott offered her.
