Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 20

There was a dinner party at nine o'clock, and Irene and Edward arrived on time.

During the negotiations, people on both sides exchanged toasts. Cooperation was also well discussed.

This trip to Yunnan should end very soon. After returning to the hotel in the evening and showering, Irene couldn't help thinking so when she was lying on the bed alone.

The next day they visited the company for cooperation for investigation and learned about the market value and their plan. They again decided on the details of the collaboration. This time the business trip was more than half complete. The only thing was the signing of the contract.

As usual, dinner was held at night. She didn't know, why Mr. Hadley, who was in charge of this cooperation, kept toasting her as if he couldn't tell her expression.

Obviously, Edward was sitting across from him, but he pretended not to notice and complimented Irene while pouring her a cup of wine.

"Come on, Miss Jones, you are so smart and capable at such a young age. I really admire you. Let me toast you again."

Irene stole a glance at Edward and saw his ashen face. She felt a little timid. Normally this kind of party to persuading women to drink was very rude. Edward should be a bit dissatisfied with this.

She saw that his hand holding the cup was cramped and released, afraid that he would get up and leave. It was not a big deal to lose this partner, but if they say the president of the Wilson Corporation president spurned his rival, it would be bad for his company.

"Mr. Hadley, you're welcome. There's no need to make a toast. I can't drink much. It'll spoil your mood if you drink with me."

"Ah, what are you talking about, Miss Jones? It's an honor to drink with a beauty like you!" Mr. Hadley saw that she declined, but he still refused to let her go, and he would allow no one to refuse him.

Irene wanted to beat around the bush. Suddenly, the man around her took her cup and said. "Mr. Hadley is in such a good mood. What's the point of drinking with a woman? I'll drink with you."

Edward's tone was overbearing and decisive. There was no room for refusal. Mr. Hadley was stunned. The next second, he saw that Edward picked up the cup in his hand and drank it up.

Irene was a little worried. He quietly pulled his trousers under the table and whispered. "You'd better be polite. Our cooperation is almost over, but the contract has not been signed yet!"

Edward looked at her cautious manner, she was like a kitten staring at dried fish for fear of being discovered, he suddenly felt happy. The anger that had come out of nowhere a moment ago was suddenly swept away.

"Mr. Hadley, let us proceed. I will toast with you to your satisfaction today!" Edward grew louder and raised his glass.

The meal became a drinking bout for them. Edward was like a man who had been dehydrated for days in the desert, and wine could quench his thirst. One by one he drank with all his might.

Mr. Hadley felt like fighting, but he insisted on competing with him. He kept asking the waiter to bring the wine. They drank one after the other, and even the courteous words before drinking wines were spared by them.

At the end of the drink, Irene obviously saw the blurred look in Edward's eyes.

Well, now he did not have to worry about the contract. Irene was helpless. Men would suddenly brothers In Arms relationships once they had wine. At this moment, they had already been brothers. The relationship could not be better.

However, Irene did not know what to do when she saw that Edward was obviously drunk.

At the end of the dinner, two drunk people were sent back by their respective assistants. As for Edward, he could only have Irene, as his acting assistant.

The night was very cold. At this time the city began to heat up. The pedestrians in the street became fewer and fewer. Even the cars parked at the entrance of the restaurant were gradually leaving.
