Chapter 35 Drinking Competition
Olivia smiled, trying to appease Eugene. “Don’t worry about it. We’re just having a good time.”
Hearing the lovey-dovey conversations agitated Aleena. She swore she was going to make Olivia pay today.
She came up with a plan. “Does this mean you’ll drink as much as I do?”
Olivia nodded. “You said it!”
Eugene was feeling uneasy. “Are you sure you can do this? Don’t force yourself if you can’t.”
Olivia smiled. “It’s fine since she’s your friend.”
Aleena followed up, “She’s right. This is between us women. Eugene, please leave us alone.”
As she continued, she put the wine glass up in the air. “Here’s to you, Miss Maxwell!”
Aleena drank red wine, so did Olivia, who simultaneously downed it.
Aleena topped up the glasses again. “Miss Maxwell, I like that! Let me offer you another toast!”
Olivia had a gentle smile on her face while she downed it once again.
Though unspoken, many around them could tell that it was a competition.
Sitting in the corner, Nicole gave Aleena a disapproving look and shook her head. Why can’t she hold in her anger? Now that’s she competing in front of Eugene, he’s going to blame her if she beats Olivia. If she loses, she’s going to be embarrassed; either way, that’s pure stupidity.
Eugene began to look worried. Even though he did not know how well Olivia could drink, he knew well what a big drinker Aleena was. He reckoned he might not even be able to beat her.
Alex could not take his eyes off the two women as he watched the show unfold.
Hayden was intrigued too.
The person who was the most at ease had to be Nathan, who could not stop putting fruit in his mouth with a fork. Whoever competed with Olivia to drink was digging themselves a grave.
They all had different thoughts about the situation as the two women were competing.
After a while, Aleena felt slightly tipsy, and she was missing her focus.
However, she still kept herself together as she could tell that Olivia was a big drinker and that she might not be able to beat her.
