Levi raised his eyebrow and smiled.
Unlike Jared, his eyes were pretty sharp.
He could see the silver needle in between her fingers clearly.
Interesting.
“…Levi, are you smiling?” Jared looked at him in surprise.
In Jared’s view, Levi was a man who never smiled and always looked cold and indifferent. Even though he smiled, it was a fake smile that didn’t show any real emotion about him. For so many years, this was the first time for Jared to see him smile out of joy.
That was sensational.
Levi glanced at him calmly, “You made a mistake, forget it.”
Jared said nothing but stared at him for a while, and found he was as emotionless as he used to be.
Maybe the smile was his hallucination? Maybe he’s right?
…
“…Sister?” Rita looked at Ruby dully. When she realized she could talk again, she held her throat immediately.
She felt her head was in a mess, and her body was scorching. That was terrible.
What did Ruby do to her!
Why couldn’t she move or speak just now!
“Firstly, I’m the only child of my mom, so honestly, I don’t have any sister. Secondly, it’s better to be self-aware, especially for an idiot. Don’t get cocky before you could come up with some good ideas,” Ruby patted her back and talked to her smilingly.
They were talking to each other by their ears, which looked like this pair of sisters were having an intimate conversation. But only Rita knew how cruel her words were.
“Take your time. I’m going home,” Ruby let go of her and walked away.
“Wait, you can’t just come and go so easily like everyone in the room is nothing to you. If you want to go, you need to drink the wine first.”
Before Ruby could walk to the door, Mr. Sean got in her way and stopped her. She raised her head and stared at the man in front of her, “She just drank it for me.”
He was looking at Ruby in a lustful way, which only made her feel disgusting, “You have to drink it by yourself.”
Then, he took a step towards her.
“Stop approaching me,” she said in a calm tone.
But everyone in the room started to laugh all of a sudden, and he took another big step toward her on purpose.
