Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1443

Chapter 1443 Get Him Drunk

Stephen arrived at Neon Hotel late.

Watching him hurrying over, Nina pursed her lips.

Earlier, she had ordered a bottle of fine wine. She had also asked those colleagues who were close to Stephen to punish the latecomers. She even encouraged them to make the latecomers get drunk.

Stephen’s colleagues took the hint as they immediately understood that she was referring to Stephen when she mentioned “latecomers.”

“Ms. Nina, rest assured. Stephen dares to come late even when you offer to treat us. We will definitely get him drunk later!”

“That’s right. Ms. Nina, we’ll make sure he loses consciousness later.”

“Are you sure that you can get him drunk? Don’t let things turn out the other way!” Nina intentionally teased them.

Her taunt worked as the few patted on their chests and promised, “Ms. Nina. Just wait and see. He’s going up against a few of us. If we fail to get him drunk, then we’re utterly useless!”

“That’s right. Just wait and see. He won’t even remember who he is!”

Hence, they waited patiently for their victim to arrive.

Right as Stephen set foot in the room, he apologized for arriving behind time. “Sorry for coming late!”

“Stephen, how dare you arrive late when Ms. Nina offered to treat us? Of course, you should be apologizing. However, action speaks louder than words. You should punish yourself by drinking three glasses of wine first.”

The man filled three glasses of wine as he spoke and brought them to Stephen with deference.

Stephen froze upon seeing that act. He had undergone surgery, and the doctor advised him to refrain from drinking. Hence, he wondered if it would damage his health if he downed all of them.

“Drink up if you’re sincere in your apology.”

“Ms. Nina, it’s your treat today. Maybe you can stop everyone from drinking too much. We can spend some time talking about work instead.”

Little did he know that it was Nina’s idea to get him drunk. Unsurprisingly, Nina had no intention of helping him.

Nina merely cast a polite smile and brushed off his suggestion. “Indeed, it is my treat. However, I want everyone to relax and play to their hearts’ content. It would be inappropriate for me to refrain everyone from drinking, right?” She stood up and added, “I’ll head out and see if there’s any delicious food. Carry on the party without me.” After that, she promptly left the room.

Hearing her response, Stephen frowned as he realized that he could only get out of the situation by himself.

He grabbed another glass of wine and gulped it. After a while, he put on an act and shook his head as if he was drunk.

“Let me tell you. I can hold my liquor. Give me more.”

“That’s great. Then you should keep drinking. Give me your glass and I’ll fill it for you.”

Stephen glanced at Ivan and thanked him. After a pause, he asked, “Oh right, Ivan. Didn’t you accidentally mix up the blueprints and come up with a flawed product last month? As a result, the company has lost at least…” He halted and pondered for a second. Holding out two fingers, he continued, “At least twenty million.”
