Chapter 2327
I felt that it was more of a reminder. It seemed that everyone already knew about Jordan''s feelings for me. He was the only one who kept refusing to admit it. I should make good use of this point.
If that''s the case, there''s even less reason for me to leave.
The living room was tidied up, the dirty clothes were thrown into the washing machine, and the floor was mopped. By the time I was done and was too tired to even stand up, the smell of delicious food traveled across the room.
The two people upstairs also came down after smelling the scent, especially the man. He was about to attack the food like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, but he was hit by Hendrix''s cutlery.
The man was about to lose his temper, but when he saw Hendrix''s deep eyes, he immediately deted. He ran to the bathroom with a cheeky smile, "Thank you, Mr. Roberts. I''m going to wash my hands."
Hendrix didn''t reply. Andrea didn''t side with either of them. She went into the basement and took out a bottle of wine.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
After a while, the four of us were finally seated. The man sat closely beside Andrea while Hendrix sat next to me. Although the atmosphere felt odd, it was still quite peaceful.
The only unfortunate thing was that Andrea had a frown from beginning to end, looking utterly displeased.
When the man picked up his spoon and was about to start eating, Andrea hit his hand, "Go, bring two sses for me."
Within ten minutes, the man has been driven away twice. He felt wronged, but he didn''t dare to anger Andrea. Hence, he obediently followed her instruction as he went to take the wine sses, his flip-flops pping loudly against the ground. He ced them in front of her.
Andrea filled both sses. She then sealed the bottle and set it aside. She picked up a ss and swigged the wine.
The man drank a ss with her and began to wolf down his meal. His eyes were shining as he stared hungrily at the food. It seemed that he had exercised a lot in the afternoon.
Andrea finished drinking and put the ss back on the table with a bang. She gasped heavily and raised her almond-shaped eyes to nce at
Hendrix.
A momentter, she opened the wine bottle and poured another ss. She handed it to Hendrix across the table and raised her chin, motioning him to drink it, "Hmm?"
Hendrix didn''t respond.
Andrea furrowed her brows, "You''re disgusted with me?"
Following that, Hendrix took the ss, avoided the ces that she touched and drank it all in one gulp.

ss.
Hendrix had already drunk it, so I had no reason to refuse. I drank it all in two to three mouthfuls.
I turned the ss upside down and shook it, indicating that I did not fool her.
This was Zuckerburg''s typical wine
culture. People drank for multiple
reason''s, whether it be for business, taking a blood oath or being irked by someone.
As Hendrix had said, Andrea wouldn''t feel satisfied if I didn''t drink the wine she offered.
After drinking the wine, unlike how I had imagined, Andrea didn''t act like she had let go of her hatred.
Instead, she let out augh that perplexed me, "Haha, hahaha, hahaha..."
Hendrix and I were confused. We didn''t understand why she was reacting that way.
Andrea picked up the wine bottle cork and showed us the part that was stuck into the bottle. A hidden mechanism was revealed. Oh no, we fell into a trap!
Hendrix was the first to process the situation. He pped the table and stood up. The moment he got up, the drug came into effect. His legs went limp and he immediately fell back into his chair. His head hung feebly as he lost consciousness.
My vision gradually blurred. I kept shaking my head to keep myself awake.
Right before I fainted, I finally understood that everything had been nned from the moment she told me to stay.
Guilt was the best secret weapon she had ever received from us.
