Natalie clenched the glass tightly, and her fingers also became bloodless.
Her nose twitched and her eyes turned bleary red.
She sneered suddenly.
Clara could not help but frown when she saw Natalie like this.
"Natalie has drunk too much. Aleena, please help her upstairs to have a rest."
Aleena forced a smile and stood up, "OK."
She came over and helped Natalie up. Natalie did not refuse.
Natalie didn't want to stay here anymore and felt a bit dizzy.
She was not a heavy drinker, but she couldn't drink wine. She got drunk easily if she drank red wine.
Just now, her glass was half full of strong 52% red wine, so it was not surprising that she would get drunk after drinking it.
With the help of Aleena, Natalie went to the second floor.
Her previous living room went empty, so Aleena took Natalie to the guest room, helped her to lie down and brought her a glass of water.
"You lie down here to rest, and call us if you need anything."
Natalie said nothing. She turned over and turned her back to Aleena.
Aleena's gaze grew cold as she looked at Natalie's thin back.
But her voice was still gentle
"I'll go down."
Natalie gave a brief reply.
The door was closed gently and Aleena left.
She felt very dizzy. The red wine seemed much stronger than what she had ever drunk
She was afraid that she couldn't go back tonight. She had to tell Archie about it lest he feel worried.
Thinking about that, she fished out her mobile phone and sent him a message.
Then she felt at ease, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
In the dining room downstairs.
Randy sat in a chair and looked at Clara with a serious look.
"Mrs. Dawson, shouldn't you explain to me? You said that Natalie had been in love only once. Why was she together with Mr. Miller before?"
If Natalie was not so beautiful, he wouldn't think about getting married to her since she had an affair with Archie McCarthy.
Clara was a little embarrassed and forced a smile.
"It is a long story. I'm being honest with you. Natalie liked Shawn before, but they haven't been together. Natalie went abroad five years ago because she knew Shawn was Jessica's boyfriend and it was impossible for her to be with Shawn."
Randy sneered.
"She lived abroad for five years but had been in love only once. Are you kidding me?"
Clara hurriedly said, "I won't. If you do not believe me, you can check by yourself."
Hearing what she said, Randy finally nodded in satisfaction.
"I believe you for the time being, but I need to add one more condition."
Clara was stunned.
"What is that?"
"I don't mind her affair with Mr. Miller or Mr. McCarthy, but I need to check if she is a virgin or not. If she is, I will send someone here to pick her up tomorrow. If not... Huh, I just don't like women used up by another man. You got me, right?"
A hint of anger flashed across Clara's face.
Even if Clara didn't like Natalie, she felt Randy's proposal a humiliation to the Dawson family. After all, Natalia was the child of the Dawson family.
It was all the fault of Natalia.
Clara thought that Natalie would have a very good relationship with Archie and wanted the Dawson family to be more prosperous with the help of Archie.
