Chapter 220 Drugging in the Hotel
Maura showed her complete disappointment. Her hands
were tightly clenched on the side of her body, with strength so strong that her fists trembled slightly. To attend today’s dinner, she slept with several people! Including Tom Maxwell
and his assistant.
Well, didn’t he dislike her? Then don’t blame her for using
other methods!
Thinking of the powder she had put in the cup before coming out, Maura exhaled deeply. When she entered the private room again, she was relaxed and happy as before.
“President Lloyd, since you’re from Jewel City, we have to take good care of you. Why don’t you wait until the dinner is over and go upstairs?” One of the men suggested. Although he didn’t say it clearly, his expression had already hinted at everything.
Huston’s expression remained unchanged. “No, let’s go together next time if there’s a chance.”
“Okay, okay, okay!” The man didn’t insist. To be exact, he didn’t dare to force it. He picked up his glass and greeted everyone. “Then let’s have a toast together. If you need us in Quartz City
for any future business matters, just let us know immediately!”
Although this sentence was very flattering, it has to be said. that it still sounded very pleasant, especially since the mant present was indeed a big shot.
Naturally, Huston wouldn’t embarrass him. Glancing at the wine glass on the table, he picked it up and said, “Thank you.”
Maura watched as the man raised his head and drank the red wine in his glass. Her heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, finally relaxed. She also drank all the wine in her
stomach.
Everyone sat down and exchanged a few simple words, leaving some space for each other to talk about private matters. Maura had been paying attention to Huston’s reaction. After waiting for more than ten minutes, the effect of the medicine gradually took effect, and she saw a trace of confusion in the man’s eyes.
She asked someone to buy this medicine, which was purchased with the doctor’s consent. It was not a low-quality drug on the market like an anesthetic. The efficacy was not obvious, but it was very powerful. It did not make people feel dizzy all of a sudden, but gradually made them feel drunk.
“President Lloyd, did you drink too much today?” One of the familiar bosses came over and asked with concern.
Huston shook his head. He has a slight headache, a typical
drunken reaction. He glanced at the wine glass on the table and did not remember how much he had drunk.
“President Lloyd, shall I help you up to have a rest?” Sam approached and asked in a tone that only the two of them
could hear.
Huston nodded. “OK.”
Hence, after a brief conversation, Huston asked Sam to book a room and took the elevator directly to the presidential suite. on the top floor.
“President Lloyd, do you need me to stay with you?” Seeing that he was not in a good state, Sam was a little worried.
Huston didn’t like to be in the same space as others, so he waved his hand and said, “It’s fine. You can leave now.”
Sam couldn’t insist, so he left behind an anti-alcoholic drug
and left.
When the door was closed, only Huston was left. He struggled to stand up from the sofa, but unexpectedly, as soon as he tried his best, he fell back to the sofa behind him.
