No matter how high his tolerance was to alcohol, Charlie’s body started turning pale after gulping down six bottles of whisky without stopping.
Even his people nearby noticed something was wrong and couldn’t help stopping him hurriedly. “Lady Hannah, I’m sorry. But my boss is getting sick. He needs a rest. Please excuse us.”
As soon as they said what they wanted to say, they were ready to take Charlie away, but Hannah stopped them immediately.
“But I haven’t finished having fun yet. You are not keeping your word, Charlie.”
Despite feeling dizzy and unwell, Charlie forcefully shook his people’s hands off his arms and turned to Hannah. Seeing her faint smile, he gritted his teeth and said, “Well, I’ll come back and continue drinking later.”
After saying that, Charlie left the spot with his people. When he was out of the sight, Keith approached Hannah and said, “Hannah, it won’t be good if he holds grudges against you.”
“Winston told me before. I offended him last time, and since then, he has been holding grudges against me. So, I can say that he already has grudges against me even before this.”
Shaking her goblet, Hannah smiled charmingly. “He dared to be rude, so he should pay the price. He can make trouble for me if he’s capable. But I’m afraid he has no guts to do so.”
As she finished speaking, her phone vibrated.
Hannah pulled out her phone and saw a message from Winston.
“Someone went downstairs from the third floor. They work for Remington and also Rodrigo. It seemed they just finished having some business negotiation with the Chadwick family.”
Hannah’s eyes darkened after reading the message. While still Looking at the phone as if she was just causally using her phone, she said in a low voice, “Let’s find a chance to sneak upstairs to the third floor.”
Trent also raised his goblet to his lips, acting as if he was just drinking, and said in a very low voice, “It’s heavily guarded here.
The only exception is the staff passage, but it won’t work. Anyone

going upstairs will be checked. You can’t sneak in.”
“Is there any other way?”
“I have an idea,” Keith suddenly said. “Although it is very risky, it is the best way, given the current situation. We two can make trouble. If the first floor is in a mess, you can find a chance to sneak to the third floor.”
Trent immediately rejected his suggestion. “That’ll be too risky, Keith. The guards are going to keep an eye on us the entire night.
Even if there’s a mess, they won’t be off guard.”
“I agree with Keith,” Hannah said. “We won’t have any other options if we just keep waiting like this. I want to go with Keith’s idea.
You two, go and make a big fuss there. I’ll take the chance and go upstairs quickly.”
Hannah had done such a thing before, so she knew how things worked and wasn’t afraid of the consequences.
“But…” Feeling worried, Trent didn’t like the idea and still wanted to convince Hannah to give up. But Keith tugged him and cut him off, saying, “No worries, Hannah. Leave it to us.”
Then, Trent was dragged away by Keith. After the two walked away, Hannah sipped the wine calmly.
Gradually, many patrons started looking in her direction.
