My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL) novel Chapter 45

Julian was right, after Emelia finised the first glass, she was required to drink the second and third glass. In a short while, Emelia drank with all the men present, except Viggo and Julian.

Julian's gaze were already scorching with fury.

It wasn't that Emelia couldn't feel it, but she didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Julian then turned his head to Viggo; his eyes seemed to be saying, since you took a liking to her, why were you just watching her being pressured to drink so much?

Viggo received the message conveyed to him in Julian's eyes but continued to sit steadily.

To be honest, Viggo was worried at first, but he suddenly relaxed his mood when he saw that Emelia's face remained unchanged.

According to what he knew about Emelia, she was not the kind of person who was impulsive and reckless, and since she chose to drink with them, it meant that she was confident in her drinking ability.

Julian was simply furious with Viggo, what a shitty boss he was.

Seeing the pale face of her boss, Maisie hurriedly found words to talk to Emelia, saving her from being required to drink again.

Maisie asked Emelia with concern, "Ms. Jones, are you alright?"

Emelia gave Maisie a smile, "I'm fine."

She didn't feel anything now except some urge to go to the bathroom, and she wasn't dizzy or stumbling on her feet.

Maisie lamented, "You can drink an intimidating amount of alcohol."

Emelia smiled, "I was born with it, but it was partly because I used to drink a lot."

Maisie exclaimed, "You drink every day?"

Maisie really couldn't imagine that her boss’s ex-wife, who was so gentle and soft, would drink regularly.

Emelia explained, "Not every day, I just drank a lot during my years in college."

Nina was discovered by a talent scout during her college days and signed up for a career. She was under a lot of pressure when she first started in the industry, plus at that time Nina was also troubled by love, so she often asked Emelia to drink. They used to drink a lot, so now they got the ability to drink intimidating amount.

As Emelia was chatting with Maisie, that director stood up again shakily with his glass and tried to continue drinking with Emelia.

"Ms. Jones, I didn't expect you to be such a good drinker, how come I didn't know that before?" Julian suddenly spoke to Emelia, so that director had to sit down.

Julian's words were quite a bit of a warning, especially the last sentence.

It was tantamount to an indirect accusation that the three years Emelia spent with him were pure deception, saying that she could not drink.

Emelia sensed Julian's questioning and explained looking at him, "Actually, I have always been a good drinker, but an accident four years ago had cast a psychological shadow on me, and I was afraid to drink for years."

"But it doesn't matter now that I've gotten over it."

Emelia was telling the truth. Four years ago, her father and her brother had drugged her and then sent her to Julian's bed.

Julian thought that she was in league with her father and brother, and that she was obsessed with vanity, greedy for wealth and shameless to the core, which had impacted her so severely that she vowed not to drink any more.

And now it was true that she had got it over as she said she would.

Julian's brow furrowed after hearing her words.

Four years ago?

Wasn't that the time period when she climbed into his bed?
