Chapter 727
The handsome guy with a mocking smile on his face gave off a ruthless sarcasm.
“Are you really that hard up for cash?
Cicely didn’t respond, and just leans against the wall, keeping her distance from him
“Yes, I really am short of money
Cicely calmly answered his question, remembering that she seemed to have already answered it once today With that, she turned around and left the restroom
“I can give you money, you can quit your job here”
Seth’s cold voice echoed behind her, giving her no chance to refute
Cicely paused for a moment, silently scoffing “What you want to keep me as your mistress? Sir?”
“Sir?” Seth’s eyebrows furrowed, repeating the word that disgusted him.
Cicely raised her eyebrows, turning to face him, her brown eyes filled with sarcasm,” “Well?”
Seth’s gaze instantly darkened Indeed, they had no relationship to speak of since three years ago.
Cicely, her calm gaze quietly taking in the man before her. He was handsome, cold, and not good at expressing his feelings. She, Cicely, had always been proud, but for once in her life, she clung to a man without any regard. But she hadn’t expected the price she had to pay, the painful predicament, was like hell on earth.
She gave a sarcastic smile, the coldness in her eyes rivaling Seth’s
As the party was winding down, most of the people in the private room were drunk as skunks, but Cicely grabbed ten bottles of Louis XIII, unhesitatingly popped them open, and put them all on the coffee table
Ella looked at Cicely’s actions in surprise. “They’re all already plastered…”
Cicely winked at her, “It’s not often we come across these easy–to–scam rich folks. They won’t mind. It’s our little secret…”
Ella nodded slightly. She was right, they were all a bunch of rich folks, so rich they could fritter money away. Plus, this sister seemed to know these people well, a few tens of thousands was a drop in the bucket for
them
Cicely smiled, turning to glance at Chloe, and gave a slight nod.
Damon had drank a bit too much today, but he only had a slight headache. He wasn’t like those people lying on the couch. He was still sitting there, looking neat and tidy, without any sign of disarray or embarrassment. Upon receiving a call from Nate, Damon got up from the couch. He was still tall and upright, steady as a rock.
“Let’s go ”
He took Chloe’s hand and headed for the door.
“What about them…
“Don’t worry about them.”
Chloe glanded at Ella, who waved at her with a smile, ‘No worries, the driver will come up to take me and Noah home later.”
Noah was leaning next to Ella, his eyes half–closed, his brow slightly furrowed, looking a bit tipsy.
Before Damon and Chloe left the room, Noah’s driver came in. Only then did Chloe feel at ease and followed Darmon out.
Chloe’s drinking capacity was actually quite good after all these years of practice, and with Damon present, no one would let her drink too much.
Damon, who had been drinking, felt a bit dizzy, so he sat down on the couch when he got back. Chloe went into the kitchen and came out ten minutes later with a cup of soup to help sober up.
On the living room couch, Damon was closing his eyes lightly, as if he were asleep. Chloe sat next to him and gently woke him up. His eyes slowly opened, his captivating gaze like a bottomless lake, without any apples. Although he was obviously a bit tipsy, he remained calm and composed, and the intelligence in his eyes did not diminish at all.
