Chapter 246: Chapter 246
Nancy Sutton sat alone in the corner to rest, a waiter brought champagne, she took it and sipped lightly, her eyes downcast, feeling dejected.
In the dance floor, Miles Keaton kept an eye on her movements, seeing her drink the champagne, he couldn’t help but smile.
The group of sleazy friends beside him immediately winked and made suggestive gestures towards him.
"Miles, the drug’s effects will kick in soon, this drug is really strong, just take her away later!"
"Yes, yes, once the deed is done, she’ll have no choice but to follow you, brother, let me congratulate you in advance for winning the beauty!"
Listening to these words, the excitement in Miles Keaton’s eyes deepened, no longer delaying, he hurriedly walked towards her.
Nancy Sutton felt downcast, drinking more than usual, a hint of intoxication smeared across her brows.
"Nancy, you don’t look so good, are you drunk? Let me help you to the lounge!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Miles Keaton hurriedly reached out to grab her, fully intent on taking her out of the banquet hall and making her his!
Nancy frowned in distaste, trying to shake off his hand, but Miles Keaton was still a man after all, much stronger than her, she couldn’t shake him off.
"Nancy, don’t be stubborn, you’re drunk now, let me take you to rest in the lounge!"
Seeing Nancy refusing his approach, Miles Keaton grew even more anxious, forcefully dragging her towards the exit of the banquet hall.
"Miles Keaton, damn it, let me go..."
Nancy felt something was wrong, struggling even harder.
Miles Keaton’s expression changed, worried about attracting attention, he roughly dragged her away.
"Looks like you didn’t take my last warning seriously."
Elliot Everett strode over quickly, an aura of coldness surrounded him.
"Pres... President Everett..."
At the sight of Elliot Everett, Miles Keaton recalled the last time his arm was twisted by him, his body couldn’t help but tremble.
Elliot Everett’s eyes, cold as ice, fell on the hand gripping Nancy, a hint of rage rising in his eyes, "Let her go."
Miles Keaton’s body trembled harder, but seeing his plan about to succeed, he naturally refused to give up, he forced himself to speak.
"President Everett, this is a private matter between me and my companion, please don’t interfere... ah..."
Before Miles Keaton finished his sentence, Elliot Everett kicked him to the ground, his distinct, bony hand grabbed his collar, those dark long eyes radiated with terrifying aggression.
"Why shouldn’t I interfere?"
Miles Keaton’s legs turned to jelly from fright, evidently not expecting him to act directly for Nancy, disregarding all decorum.
"President Everett, please don’t, let’s talk it out!"
"Yes, yes, Everett, calm down, let’s talk it over!"
Realizing the situation, the other presidents immediately rushed over to mediate.
Elliot Everett coldly spat out the word, then tossed him aside like trash, pulling out a handkerchief to meticulously clean his hand.
This act was full of humiliation, Miles Keaton bit his teeth in resentment, but could only endure, leaving with his tail between his legs.
Watching the scene, the assistant standing nearby became even more certain that Nancy Sutton was the future hostess, never having seen President Everett so emotionally affected by anyone, as soon as he saw Miss Sutton being bothered, President Everett immediately left all the other presidents to rush over!
President Everett truly cared about Miss Sutton...
Elliot Everett retracted the fierceness in his eyes, finally turning to look at Nancy Sutton, but before he could speak, Nancy turned to leave.
Elliot Everett’s handsome face flashed a trace of astonishment, instinctively blocking her.
Nancy bit her lip forcefully, turning her head away from him, once again embarrassed before him, why did she keep losing face before him.
Aware of her distant attitude, Elliot Everett narrowed his eyes slightly, his demeanor turning serious.
"Sit down, let’s talk."
Though unwilling, Nancy Sutton sat obediently.
Elliot Everett picked up the champagne on the table, taking a sip, his eyes deeply watching her, "Nancy, why did you block me?" Latest content publıshed on novel✶fire.net
As soon as he spoke, Elliot Everett noticed Nancy Sutton’s unusual expression, puzzled, he inquired.
Nancy Sutton’s radiant face reddened, frowning as she spoke, "You... you’re drinking what I’ve had..."
Elliot Everett then realized he took the wrong glass, his expression stiffened, raising his hand to pinch his brow hard.
He had been so angered by her...
The spot he drank had her lipstick mark, effectively an indirect kiss...
If it had been before, she would have been happy, but now he had a girlfriend, this was really inappropriate!
Nancy Sutton glared at him angrily, not adhering to masculine ideals!
Being glared at, Elliot Everett’s eyes showed deeper helplessness, "Nancy, I truly didn’t mean it..."
Nancy Sutton lowered her head, not wanting to deal with him, he already had a girlfriend, even if she still liked him, she wouldn’t be the other woman.
Just as Nancy Sutton was about to get up and leave, she suddenly felt weak and her head started spinning.
She only drank half a glass of champagne, didn’t expect such strong aftereffects!
"What’s wrong, Nancy?"
Elliot Everett immediately got up to support her, showing concern.
"I’m dizzy..." Nancy supported her forehead, holding back the discomfort, speaking softly, "I’ll be fine after resting for a while."
The evening business banquet was held in the most luxurious hotel in Imperia, the host had arranged rooms for each president to rest.
Elliot Everett directly took her to the room allocated to him by the host.
"Nancy, rest well for now, once the banquet ends, I’ll take you home."
After instructing her, Elliot Everett prepared to leave, not wanting to disturb her, but as he stepped out, his sleeve was tightly gripped.
Nancy Sutton’s consciousness was fuzzy, her rational mind completely gone, her radiant face flushed, desperately needing solace due to the intense drug effect.
Only now did Elliot Everett realize her odd behavior, watching her captivating demeanor, his heart skipped a beat, he immediately looked away, speaking sternly.
"Nancy, hold on, I’ll call a private doctor right now!"
Elliot Everett didn’t dare delay, striding out promptly, but was held tightly by Nancy Sutton.
"It hurts... it hurts so much... please help me..."
Nancy Sutton now had no awareness, not knowing what she was doing, only instinctively seeking help.
Feeling the soft touch from her, Elliot Everett’s tall, upright body stiffened instantly, a wave of heat rising within him.
This surge of heat was overwhelming, confronting Elliot Everett’s proud self-control was crumbling.
What was happening? Why couldn’t he control himself...
