Alivia was stunned when she heard this, but she quickly came to her senses and said, "It's okay. I have something to talk to him about. Tell me which private room he is in."
"Well..." The manager did not expect her to say that. This girl, who usually looked very low-key and even a little submissive, was quite courageous at this critical moment. Anyway, it was not a bad thing for him.
The manager's eyes lit up as an idea struck him. "How about this? I'll have the bartender mix two cocktails for you to deliver later. You can say they're a gift for a VIP customer."
Alivia frowned and didn't want to make it so complicated. "No need, I just want to say a few words and send wine..."
"Hey!" The manager waved his hand and interrupted her. "Just listen to me."
As he spoke, he did not care whether Alivia was willing and immediately pushed her to the bar counter. He took an exquisite tray and handed it to her. "Go."
...
Alivia had no choice but to hold the two drinks and make her way toward the private room on the second floor. Her hands were occupied when she reached the door, so she lightly tapped the door twice with her toe.
"Come in."
The man's calm voice came, a little different from what she had heard before, but Alivia couldn't tell exactly what was different. She just felt that he was a little more serious and restrained.
She took a deep breath and walked into the private room. When her eyes met the man's, both were stunned, especially Bert. When he saw her coming in, he suddenly narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous look flashed but was quickly covered up.
