A Ruling Passion – Chapter 0405

Tiffany instantly blushed. Instead of scolding him, she downed a glass of wine nervously. “You’re really nasty...”

Her reaction stunned him for two seconds. Whenever they joked like this in the past, she would retaliate instead of blushing...

All of a sudden, her phone rang in her bag. Tiffany answered the call in front of him without any hesitation. “Ethan? I’m eating outside. Why? No one in particular, I’m with a friend. What? Meet? It’s gonna be late by the time I’m done, can we leave it until tomorrow? By the way, I’ve resigned. I’ll have plenty of time tomorrow. Alright, I’m hanging up now.”

After Tiffany hung up, she continued eating and did not notice the cold expression on Jackson’s face. After a few more glasses of red wine, the blush on her face showed no signs of fading away. She used to be able to hold her liquor well but not anymore since it had been quite a long time since she last drank heavily. Since she was drinking too fast earlier, the alcohol had gotten to her head.

By the time they were done eating, the bottle of red wine was nearly empty as well.
