I was just posing,” said Jas Brown cheekily.
“What?
You didn’t film it?” Christopher Taylor’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Jas Brown grinned slyly, saying, “It’s not that I didn’t want to film, but how could I without a cellphone?
You don’t believe ?
Go back and try it on your own window.
Can you really set up a phone there to record what’s going on inside the room?”
Christopher Taylor’s facial muscles twitched violently a few tis before he took several deep breaths, then said, “Let’s go.”
He couldn’t stay here any longer; otherwise, he might actually take a cop’s gun and shoot Jas Brown dead.
Christopher Taylor left and imdiately went back to the room they had been in earlier.
He tried to see if it was possible to take a video with a cellphone from there and found that it indeed wasn’t possible.
This made him even more furious, and he slamd his phone to the ground in anger.
He had been completely played by Jas Brown; he had never felt so cheated and frustrated before.
The two people with Christopher Taylor were sowhat confused, and one of them asked, “Mayor Johnson, why didn’t you arrest that guy just now?”
Christopher Taylor clenched his fist and smashed it onto the windowsill, grinding his teeth and said, “J Corporation is investing in our county, which is beneficial for .
If I completely alienate them, that’s not good for .”
“Mayor Johnson, even though J Corporation has a big background, that kid is just a small fry in the company and nothing to brag about.
It may not be convenient today, but that doesn’t an in the future no one will have his back when we deal with him.”
Christopher Taylor’s eyes lit up, then he burst into loud laughter.
After laughing for a while, he pounded the windowsill once more and said viciously, “Jas Brown, huh?
Kid, you dared to hit .
I’m going to make you pay tenfold, a hundredfold.”
Jas Brown was sitting in the room, feeling like he was on pins and needles; Gina Lopez, lanie Johnson, and Sunny Nguyen all looked at him with unfriendly eyes.
“Can you guys stop looking at like that, please?
If you were in my shoes, you’d definitely clean up that guy just like I did,” said Jas.
Being observed by three beautiful won and his foster daughter seed like sothing cool, but such stares made him uncomfortable.
Alice Brown quickly said, “Mr.
Lopez, this was all because of .
If it weren’t for Big Brother Brown, I would’ve really been bullied by Christopher Taylor this ti.”
“Oh?” All three imdiately turned their gazes to Alice Brown.
Alice Brown also felt the pressure; as a host, she was used to big events, so being the center of attention wasn’t usually flustering.
But because these three won seed to have so relationship with Jas Brown, she felt like she was caught cheating with him, and that made her feel sowhat guilty.
Still, Alice Brown cleared her throat and recounted the events in detail.
As soone trained in hosting, she narrated vividly, especially portraying Christopher Taylor’s despicable behavior.
“Well hit!” exclaid lody Yoody, slamming the table.
Her eyebrows shot up, and she shouted, “Such scum, as Deputy County Chief, still dared to do such things.
Jas, you should have hit him harder.”
Gina Lopez also said through gritted teeth, “Exactly, I an, look at you, why were you so gentle?
For such a scumbag, even killing him wouldn’t be too much.”
Jas Brown imdiately felt a headache coming on, while Alice Brown was dumbstruck, not expecting such a strong reaction from the two.
Although Sunny Nguyen didn’t use as aggressive language as Gina Lopez and lody Yoody, she still sighed and said, “In this world, so n with a bit of power just don’t treat won as human beings.”
Sunny Nguyen’s comnt sumd up the reason why Gina Lopez and lody Yoody were so furious.
The four won in the room were all capable individuals with a certain social status, and they understood all too well that for a woman to achieve anything, the effort required was often much greater than for a man.
How many n lusted after their beauty, especially those with money and power, always hindering them at every turn, blackmailing them into trading their charms for favorable conditions?
Each of the four won had encountered this, and not just once.
So when they encountered such situations, they were extrely angry.
The four then began to complain to each other like aggrieved won, sharing the difficulties they encountered in their careers.
It was practically a profound grievance eting.
And as they talked, their mood worsened, and they even started to drown their sorrows in alcohol.
Jas Brown didn’t interrupt at first, but after a while, seeing that all four of them seed intent on getting drunk, he hurriedly tried to stop them.
“It’s none of your business, you stinky man.
Of course, you wouldn’t understand this feeling,” Gina Lopez instantly glared at him.
lody Yoody’s hand rested on Jas Brown’s shoulder, her eyes slightly reddened as she said, “Jas, don’t worry about .
I’ve been so tired these past few years; I just want to let loose and vent today until I’m satisfied, so leave be.”
Although Alice Brown didn’t touch Jas like lody Yoody did, she also looked at him with watery eyes and said, “Big Brother Brown, with you here, I’m not afraid of how much I drink, unlike when I’m with other n—I’m really afraid of getting too drunk.”
Sunny Nguyen chuckled softly and said, “With four beautiful won here, if all of us get drunk, won’t you benefit from that?
What’s there for you to worry about?”
lody Yoody laughed heartily, “That’s right.
When that ti cos, you can do whatever you want.”
Alice Brown appeared even more charming.
If that were really possible, she would not object at all.
In fact, she was quite looking forward to it.
At that mont, she promptly lifted her glass and said, “To Mr.
Lopez, Director Green, Township Chief Johnson, cheers, let’s drink again.”
Both lody Yoody and Sunny Nguyen downed their drinks following her lead, but Gina Lopez felt a bit apprehensive inside.
If she really got drunk, would Jas really try sothing on her?
But she quickly dismissed the thought.
Jas wouldn’t do anything to her; he would love nothing more than to distance himself from her; he had never taken the initiative.
If Jas and Sunny Nguyen were to do sothing after getting drunk, that would be normal.
Now she was kind of worried about what Jas might do with lody Yoody and Alice Brown.
She wasn’t a fool and could see from the way lody and Alice interacted with Jas that both of them clearly had considerable feelings for him.
She felt rather gloomy now, wondering what was so good about Jas that so many won, and not just any won, but beauties, were pining after him?
How co she couldn’t see those appealing traits in Jas that other won liked?
Instead, she found him to be full of flaws.
However, under the persuasion of the others, it didn’t feel right for her not to drink, though she still kept so wits about her, not wanting to get too drunk.
Unfortunately, Alice Brown, lody Yoody, and Sunny Nguyen were all set on getting drunk.
Seeing Gina not diving into the drinking as passionately, they all persuaded her together.
Even if Gina didn’t want to get drunk, it was now impossible.
An hour later, none of the four were in good shape—all of them were intoxicated.
People exhibit different behaviors when drunk.
Gina, having had too much to drink, was simply sprawled asleep on the table.
Sunny Nguyen wasn’t asleep, but her watery eyes kept fixed on Jas, with a seductive and alluring drunken charm; Sunny Nguyen was indeed moved by her feelings at this mont.
Alice Brown, on the other hand, was the opposite of her usual talkative self as a host.
She sat there silently and seed to be thinking of sothing sad, her tears occasionally flowing.
lody Yoody was unlike the other three—she was extrely excited at this ti.
Though she was already slurring her words, she couldn’t stop talking.
While speaking, she held onto Jas’s hand, uttering words that even Jas couldn’t understand.
Watching these four drunkards, Jas was torn between laughter and tears.
He realized that even beauties lose their composure when drunk.
He called the server over to prepare four rooms, and with the server’s help, he escorted the four to their rooms.
As lody Yoody had been holding onto Jas’s arm the whole ti, he had no choice but to help lody into her room.
Once inside the room, Jas helped lody onto the bed and said, “lody, take a break first; I’ll get you so water.”
With arms outstretched, lody imdiately encircled Jas’s neck and, breathing out alcohol fus, forcefully pulled Jas down.
Jas could have struggled free, but lody’s actions made him scared to use force for fear of hurting her; he urgently asked, “lody, what are you doing?”
At that mont, lody’s gaze fixed on Jas’s face, watching him intently and silently.
Facing lody’s gaze, a pang hit Jas’s heart.
He gently brushed away the hair from her forehead and said softly, “You must be thirsty after drinking so much; I’ll get you so water.”
“I want to drink your saliva,” lody stated very clearly, her eyes burning intensely as she stared at Jas without blinking, waiting for his response.
Jas montarily felt disoriented as if he had been transported back to his high school days.
Back then, lody was like a Goddess in everyone’s hearts—beautiful, from a well-off family, and academically brilliant, whereas Jas was just a poor, mischievous boy.
Despite this, lody was so forthright with Jas, not a bit haughty even in intimate monts, rather, very clingy.
Just like now, she fixated on Jas saying, “I want to taste your saliva.”
Such a gaze, those words, seemingly bridged the gap between Jas and lody in an instant.
Jas gazed at lody in a daze, and lody returned the look with determination and resolve in her eyes.
Closing his eyes slightly, Jas leaned over lody, extending his arms to embrace her tightly, and kissed her deeply.
