Like a proud emperor, Stefan sat there and haughtily glanced at the glass in Renee’s hand, which was
filled to the brim with orange juice.
“Is that how you show your sincerity towards this industry?” He sneered.
“Sincerity is measured by what I do,” Renee retorted coldly, “not what I drink.”
She then turned to the top figures in the room and humbly stated, “Gentlemen, please forgive me for
drinking orange juice instead of wine. I’m allergic to alcohol so unfortunately, I can’t join you for a glass.
Nonetheless, please know that I hold all of you in the highest regard.”
“Orange juice instead of wine?” Stefan scoffed. “Do you think this is child’s play? The world of business
is a battlefield where people fight to the death. No one here has any time to play with you. If you can’t
adapt to this world, you’d better just go home now and not waste anyone’s
time.”
Hearing this, the crowd immediately sensed a rivalry between them. If they did not pick the right side,
their days in the field would be numbered. And so, they targeted Renee, echoing the sentiments that
Stefan just made.
“Mr. Hunt has a point, Ms. Everheart! No one drinks orange juice at the bar. Are you making
fun of us here?”
“You might be the new director of
treatment just because you’re a wo association, but surely you’re not expecting special
right?”
“As the director of the association, you will have to attend a lot of events in the future where socializing
is necessary. If you can’t adapt to this kind of situation, then I think you’d better step down as soon as
possible!”
Stefan swirled the glass of red wine in his hand and raised his brows in satisfaction. He stared at
Renee with a smug expression on his face, as if looking down at a pesky bug who should never have
been there in the first place.
Renee cursed him silently. She should have known that a spiteful and vindictive man like Stefan would
never miss a chance to embarrass her! The truth was that Renee could hold her liquor remarkably well.
The only problem was that she was pregnant right now, so she could
any alcoholic drink.
not touch
‘Fine,’ she thought, ‘since Stefan is trying to challenge me, I’ll just have to teach him what regret really
feels like!’
“You’ve made a great point, Mr. Hunt. It is my fault that I never considered this deeply enough.
You’re right, I should drink some alcohol,” Rence said graciously, then downed the entire glass of
orange juice in one gulp and picked up the wine decanter from the table. She poured herself a full glass
of red wine, then, with a mysterious expression on her face, she turned to Stefan and suddenly said,
“But wait! What’s the fun in just drinking the wine? Why don’t we play a finger guessing game, Mr.
Hunt? If you win, I’ll drink as much as you like.”
Stefan’s icy gaze betrayed his disdain. Because of his status and reputation, he had never played such
a trivial drinking game with anyone before, much less a woman.
you “Are you reluctant to play,” teased Renee with a sly smile, “because you’re afraid that might lose? If
you’re afraid of a woman, Mr. Hunt, then I think you’re even less suited for the battlefield of business
than I am!”
Everyone in the room gasped. What a bold and daring woman Renee Everheart was! It proved that you
really shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. However, considering these two used to be married to each
other in the past, they could not help but wonder if this was actually a lover’s quarrel with a flirtatious
undertone.
Stefan stared at her coldly with his searching eyes and asked, “Are you sure you want to play this
game with me?”
“Of course! And the loser must agree unconditionally to anything that the winner requests. Are you
game?”
“Fine. I’ll humor you this time, but don’t blame me if you regret it later.” Stefan clasped his long fingers
together. It was such a rare sight to see him agreeing to play such a trivial and common drinking game.
The truth was that he had not succumbed to Renee’s pressure. He was only trying to make her realize
how hard the world of business was and retreat. If she could not handle a simple situation such as
drinking alcohol in public, then she’d be taken advantage of at every turn once she formally entered the
field.
Meanwhile, Elijah was so shocked at what was happening that his eyes almost fell out of their sockets.
He simply could not believe that Stefan, who had always despised drinking games like this, would be
willing to play one with Mrs. Hunt, and in front of all these influential figures
too!
If this was not a clear sign of love, he did not know what was!
Still, Elijah knew that no matter what, men were always better at the finger-guessing game than women
were. He could not help but worry about Renee, so he cautiously reminded Stefan, “Please go easy on
Ms. Everheart, Mr. Hunt. She’s not been out much before, so she’s definitely
not experienced in this kind of game.”
Renee put on a pitiful expression and echoed, “That’s right, Mr. Hunt! Please go easy on me…
I’m just a girl, after all!”
However, in her heart, Renee was saying, ‘I’ll show you who’s boss, Stefan Hunt, you douchebag!’
