Chapter 446 Malice
Crystal immediately set the wine glass aside.
She always remembered that one time at Mauveglow Villa 1, when Robin had told her that a girl drinking outside could lead to big trouble!
If Robin were here today, she would have picked up the wine glass without hesitation and wouldn’t have stopped until she was drunk.
Just, where was that guy now?
I really missed that insensitive jerk!
From that day on, she firmly remembered Robin’s words.
She warned herself that she would never drink unless that big villain, Robin, was present!
“I’m truly sorry, Mr. Tran, I absolutely cannot drink alcohol.” Crystal said with a faint smile.
“How can one do business without drinking?” The smile on Ted’s face suddenly turned cold.
Crystal took a deep breath and said, “Mr. Tran, we can skip the business talk, but I absolutely will not drink. If Mr. Tran insists on drinking in order to discuss business, then we might as well not do this deal!”
In an instant, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly turned cold.

Tod looked gloomily at Rebecca, then at Crystal, “Ms. Thompson, did you look down on me?”
Crystal gave a nonchalant smile, “Mr. Tran, if you think my not drinking is a sign of disrespect to you, then I’m sorry, we can’t work together.”
Having said that, he stood up, picked up his bag, and was about to leave the private room.
Rebecca quickly grabbed Crystal and winked at Ted as she looked back.-
Ted greedily eyed Crystal’s slender figure, then turned and laughed.
“Ms. Thompson, it was just a joke. In fact, I greatly admire a woman with such strong opinions as yours!”
“Alright, no alcohol, you can have a beverage! I was presumptuous just now, I owe you an apology!”
“I forgot my first meeting with Ms. Thompson, I was a bit careless with my words.”
“Ms. Thompson, don’t be too hard on me, okay!”
“People who knew me, knew that I was straightforward and sometimes I found it hard to consider everything when I spoke or did things. Don’t take it too personally. I liked friends like you who say what they think!”
“Come, come, sit down, make yourself comfortable. I’m drinking!”
“You were thinking about expanding your mother’s business, and I fully supported it!”
“If your mother were still alive, she would be about my age. So, don’t

have any other concerns, I understand what you mean. This is better!”
“Don’t overthink it. Drinking is just a medium for conversation, whether it’s alcohol, a soft drink, or even plain water.”
“What’s important is that we were able to make the business deal and strengthen our relationship, don’t you think?”
Rebecca also persuaded, “Ms. Thompson, please don’t lose your temper.”
“Doing business is about maintaining good relationships and making money, didn’t you also want to accomplish something on your own?”
“Those previous achievements were all thanks to Robin and the Huber Group, haven’t you always wanted to do something to show Robin your capabilities?”
Crystal was taken aback and stopped in her tracks.
The thought of Robin knowing she could do more and better things brought a happy smile to her face.
So, taking a deep breath, she turned around and smiled, saying, “Mr. Tran, I was just joking with you earlier. However, I still want a drink.”
“Alright, alright, alright!” Ted burst out laughing.
“Mr. Tang, could you please bring two drinks for Ms. Thompson?”
Rebecca nodded knowingly, “Ms. Thompson, have a chat with Mr. Tran, I’ll be right there.”
“Wasn’t there a server? You didn’t need to go get it yourself,” Crystal hesitated slightly.

Rebecen removed Crystal’s hand, “The drinks they chose were not good, I will pick one for you myself.”
Crystal hesitated for a moment, “Alright, go and come back quickly.”
At that moment, she subconsciously touched the phone in her bag.
Suddenly, for no apparent reason, I wanted to give Robin a call.
Picked up the phone and just dialed Robin’s number, then hung up again.
She didn’t know what to say to Robin.
Robin from room 203 had just sat down when his phone suddenly vibrated.
Opened the phone. Crystal’s call popped up. rang a few times then hung
Robin chuckled lightly. this woman must have been bored, not knowing what prank she was going to pull next.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure hurriedly pass by the door.
Rebecca?
How could this woman have been in this hotel?
Was Crystal also here?
“General Bruce, what would you like to eat?” Timothy brought the menu
to him.
Robin put down the phone and stopped thinking about Crystal’s matter.
Rebecca quickly went to the bar and personally grabbed two drinks.
She didn’t return to the private room, but quickly went to the restroom
The pre–prepared medicine powder was poured into the drink bottle.
Watching the white bubbles rising in the drink
A cold, smister smile spread across Rebecca’s delicate face.
Crystal, don’t blame me, I was forced!
The world was just that cruel!
