Chapter 271 There Are Already Seven
After consuming several glasses of red wine, Jacqueline began to appear different.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her gaze seemed distant. It was unclear whether she was genuinely drunk or pretending to be. As she spoke, she swayed, “Emrys, do you know? I genuinely like you, and it has nothing to do with family interests. Last time at my house, when you were drunk, my father wanted us to sleep together…”
She poured her heart out to Emrys, unaware that during their last encounter at the Balford residence, Emrys had only pretended to be drunk to test her.
Emrys fell silent for a moment.

Without waiting for his response, Jacqueline leaned in and said, “Emrys, regardless of how you about me, I think that if I could give my first time to such an outstanding man like you, I would be very satisfied.”
She had come tonight, prepared to sacrifice herself after summoning a great deal of courage.
This was different from last time.
Last time, she believed Emrys was drunk. If she were to sleep with him under those circumstances, Jacqueline felt it would be inappropriate. However, tonight was different because Emrys was sober. If he could accept her…
Jacqueline had already made the necessary preparations.
At this critical moment, Emrys hesitated, remaining motionless for a long time. In the end, even Yelena, who was hiding on the balcony and peeking, couldn’t bear it any longer. She rushed in, grabbed Emrys‘ ear, and said, “Emrys, you’re such a jerk. Why did you flirt with her if you have no intention of being with her?”
In that moment, Emrys actually thought Yelena was possessed by Cordelia and quickly begged for mercy, saying, “Lena, please let go, it hurts!”
“Hmph, serves you right. Who asked you to fool around with other women?” Yelena said angrily.
Wait, are you blaming me for being promiscuous or flirting without the intention of being together?
In truth, even Yelena herself didn’t know the answer to this question.
She was also very conflicted inside.
“Who are you?”
When Jacqueline saw a person suddenly rush onto the balcony, and moreover, a stunning beauty, she was instantly startled. The slightly tipsy feeling she had just moments ago immediately disappeared, bringing her back to sobriety.
The scent of the perfume is very familiar, so it was her who was here earlier. Emrys must have known about her. He just deliberately kept it from me.

Jacqueline’s personality had always been considered rather haughty. At least within Jazona, there hadn’t been a single bachelor who could sway her heart.
