    However, Eric came byter and got her to pour some drinks for the three teachers. “You need to be smart with this and at least


    get them to like you.”


    Mnie rubbed between her eyes. “I can’t drink.”


    Eric said, “It’s just a show of sincerity. The main reason is for them to get to like you. Even if you don’t need them to like you, you


    need to help Xander and Burning Star get some brownie points.”


    Mnie knew he was right. This was considered social etiquette. Even when she was back at LeapCo, she would have to attend


    many lunch and dinner meetings like this.


    She got up and approached the few experts. Eugene was seated right next to Fuller.


    Mnie looked down and poured some liquor into Fuller’s ss. She said sincerely, “Mr. Fuller, even though Xander could not


    make it today, you’re always in his mind as he constantly mentions you. Cheers to you.”


    After she said that, someone immediately mentioned, “Why didn’t you bring your ss if you wanted to toast Mr. Fuller?”


    Mnie said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Fuller. I’ve not been feeling well and | can’t really be drinking. | hope you don’t mind.”


    Fuller was alright with this. He waved her off. “It’s nice enough that a youngster like you shows sincerity.”


    Mnie continued pouring drinks into Zeitman and Garner''s sses. She was very polite about it and no one gave her any


    trouble.


    After a round of pouring drinks, Fuller reminded her, “There’s also Mr. Scott here.”


    Mnie looked at Eugene. Many people had approached him for toast and he already had too much to drink. His fair skin was


    now a little pinkish.


    There were ripples of emotions in his usually deep, dark eyes and they shone in the light. There was a


    much softer look in them than before.


    Eugene would never drink unless he had to entertain clients, but this was Oskon City and LeapCo had not found its footing here


    yet. Moreover, there were several local business tycoons present and Eugene had to rx his rule a little.


    Mnie noticed that he did not reject anyone who toasted him.


    She blinked and went to Eugene. She bent over a little to pour him a drink when Eugene suddenly covered the top of his ss


    with his hand.


    He looked up at Mnie. It could be from all the drinking because his voice sounded a little hoarse.” I’m not drinking anymore.

    Mnie looked at him. He did not reject thest person who toasted him.


    However, Mnie did not insist when she remembered his attitude toward her.


    She nodded and returned to her seat.


    Eugene did have a little too much to drink that night. By the time the dinner ended, he was still sitting


    in his seat.


    Mnie went to say goodbye to Fuller and the other teachers. When she walked past Eugene, Yvette was helping him up. Her


    tone was soft and sweet, “Let me help you back to the hotel, Mr. Scott.”


    Eugene’s voice was very hoarse. “That’s not necessary.”


    Mnie paused in her steps. Eugene’s voice indicated that he was not feeling very well.


    That was about right. Nearly everyone at this dinner hade to him for a drink and he did not reject anyone. It was only normal


    that he felt ufortable.


    However, Mnie ignored him. After saying goodbye to Fuller, she prepared to leave.


    When she walked past Eugene, she suddenly heard him call out in a hoarse and bitter voice,” Mnie.”


    Mnie stopped and turned back to look at Eugene. He had already sat up straight. He had a hand propped against the side of


    his head while he looked at Mnie with narrowed eyes.


    After a while, he stood up. His expression returned to his normal stoic self and he said, “Let''s go back.”
