The red wine was brought in. With Herring's permission, a beautiful attendant dressed in a cheongsam opened the bottle and poured a glass for Sophia.
"Are you bored?" Because of the loud music in the room, Herring approached Sophia closer.
"Yes." She had never been to a place like this. The unfamiliar environment made her a bit uncertain.
After Herring told the attendant something, she stood up and left the room.
Taking a sip of her wine, Sophia looked at people on the dance floor. When she was with Payne, he never took her to a bar.
Her father was a professor and her mother was an archaeologist. Because of her conservative parents, she had received a relatively traditional education.
She was curious about this place. But without a reliable person around, she didn't want to explore it.
Herring poured a glass of white wine and replaced it with her glass. "Try this."
Sophia had attended some dinner parties with Colin and was used to drinking alcohol. She didn't refuse Herring's offer.
The door of the private room opened again and the attendant who just left came back with several men.
They were young and handsome, all dressed in a white shirt, black vest, and black leather shoes.
More importantly, each of them looked more attractive than the other.
The men on the dance floor began to whistle. The man who had introduced himself as Gareth shouted loudly, "Hey buddy, over here! I like boys."
Sophia was shocked.
She didn't expect a good-looking man like Gareth to be interested in boys. It's a pity that another single girl wouldn't be able to end up with a handsome man...
While Sophia despaired about Gareth, Herring told her, "Pick two men to entertain you."
Appalled at his suggestion, Sophia choked on her drink.
Herring was telling her to have fun with strange men!
She hurriedly refused and shook her hands. "No, thanks. I'll just watch you!"
Herring picked two men and put a stack of bills on the table, successfully drawing their attention. "Have a drink with her and entertain her well. You'll get more after."
Sophia was rendered speechless. "What the hell are you doing?"
"What's wrong? Colin is having fun with Leila right now. Isn't it good that you can both leave each other's side and have fun separately?" But Herring was only saying that. If the two men dared to touch Sophia, he would surely kill them.
When Colin comes over to see Sophia in the company of two men, he would be greatly upset. Herring couldn't wait to see that.
Apparently, Colin was having fun with Leila. Herring's words hurt Sophia.
She grabbed the glass in front of her and took a long drink.
The two men sat next to Sophia and started to pour more alcohol for her.
Before they could do anything else, the door suddenly flew open. The man who came in frightened Sophia, to the point that she almost dropped her glass.
Seeing Leila behind Colin made Sophia's heart ache. She drank the wine in one go.
"Hello, Mr. Colin!" "Good evening, Mr. Colin!"
"Hi, Mr. Colin!"
...
The men and women on the dance floor greeted Colin warmly when he arrived. He smiled at them in response. He turned back to the woman in front of him.
The sight of Sophia drinking the alcohol in one go was shocking. The men beside her clapped their hands in appreciation. "That's impressive! Amazing!"
One of them refilled her glass.
Herring looked at his brother who was clearly suppressing his rage. "Colin! You arrived here so quickly!" It had only been ten minutes since he texted Colin. How did he get here so fast?
Colin and Leila's appearance made Sophia do something reckless.
