Chapter 113 I Think I’m Drunk
After running out of the private room, Evelyn did not go back
to find Matt. Instead, she ran out of the club alone.
Not far from the club, there was a twenty–four–hour
convenience store. After drinking a glass of wine, she felt a little dizzy and her mouth was dry. She touched the change in
her pocket and walked over to buy a bottle of water.
She sat on the steps next to the convenience store. The
evening wind stirred up a gust of cool, but her body did not feel cold. Instead, she felt unusually hot.
She subconsciously loosened a few buttons on her collar and gulped down a mouthful of water, trying to calm down the
raging heat in her body. Unexpectedly, it didn’t work at all. Instead, she felt that she was getting more and more thirsty.
She wrapped her arms around her knees. Gradually, the heat spread all over her body, and even her blood became hot,
burning her senses from the inside out.
She couldn’t help but want to tear off her clothes. In order not to let others see her abnormal behavior, she supported the wall and walked into a narrow alley.
The dizziness came very suddenly. In addition to alcohol, what
else was destroying her sanity?
It was as if there were a swarm of ants crawling through. her limbs, causing a tickling sensation. Occasionally, they
would bite her, leaving a fiery ache. Her body seemed to be
permeated with moist air, making her uneasy and unable to exhale freely.
Evelyn was almost driven crazy by this unclear feeling.
She tried her best to open her eyes wide, but she couldn’t
concentrate.
She unscrewed the mineral water bottle anxiously, and her hands couldn’t stop trembling. She accidentally spilled the water all over her body. The cold liquid stimulated her nerves.
But it didn’t work even though she drank it all.
She was extremely uncomfortable as if she was on fire.
She simply reached out to pull off her clothes and quickly pulled away her collar, revealing her fair skin.
Her strength was taken away, and she felt utterly powerless.
She suddenly remembered the glass of wine she had drank
and the conversation she had heard in the bathroom. She
realized that there was a serious problem.
She seemed to have been drugged.
As soon as Evelyn left the room, Huston also left. When he
returned to the private room that Matt booked, he didn’t see
the expected woman.
The man frowned and sat back down on the sofa with a calm
face. Matt glanced at him and leaned over, asking, “Evelyn is looking for you. Did you see her?”
Without saying a word, Huston picked up his glass and took a
sip. He didn’t drink much, and it seemed like he was using his actions to hide something.
Matt had known him since college and knew his reaction well.
“You drove her away again, did you?” asked Matt.
“No.” This time, Huston finally spoke.
Matt raised his eyebrows and said nothing more.
As time passed, the man glanced at the door of the private. room intentionally or unintentionally. While speaking, he looked down at his watch from time to time and was much more frequently than usual. But the person who ran out did not appear for a long time.
