"Miss, are you feeling unwell?" the waiter walked up to Danna and asked with concern.
She rubbed and shook her head. However, when her eyes touched the waiter, the fire in her body became even stronger.
All of a sudden…
She forgot to react and subconsciously wanted to get closer to the waiter.
"... I’m a little hot..."
The waiter understood…
"There is a hotel next to our bar where you can rest. How about I take you there?"
Danna snorted, her flushed face getting hotter.
In a daze, she followed the waiter and left.
Upstairs…
"Mr. Sherwood, everything is done." Yohan looked at Penelope and shrugged. "Ms. Reed, is there anything else you need me to do?"
Penelope swung the wine in her glass, her whole body exuded a worldly and independent beauty, but the corners of her mouth were deadly.
"Thanks, Mr. Sherwood! It depends on how deep the hole they dug for themselves will be."
Yohan could not help but tremble.
Sure enough, the old saying was true.
Don't mess with anyone! Don't mess with women!
"Mr. Sherwood, your wine is good," Penelope said casually.
Yohan raised his eyebrows.
He replied, "If Ms. Reed likes it, you are welcome to come over and taste our new products at any time."
As he said this, he did not forget to glance at Ryan who was standing aside, with a sly smile. "Since my friend is paying the bill, I will definitely leave the best wine for you."
Penelope: "...Mr. Sherwood is indeed a businessman! No matter how you do this business, you will only make a profit and not lose money."
But Yohan felt that the fire was not strong enough.
Then he said, "Whatever Ms. Reed asks, even the wedding banquet for your wedding, I will pay for it all."
As soon as these words came out…
Penelope could not hold it back. She felt a burning sensation in her throat and coughed violently.
"...What Yohan just said was just a joke. Don't take it seriously." Ryan looked forward and said involuntarily.
Penelope heard him. For some reason, she felt a little disappointed, but she concealed it very well.
She just said ‘oh’ and lowered her eyes.
"I think he must have misunderstood. It doesn't matter. I will explain it clearly to him when we meet next time..."
"No need."
Penelope looked while questioning, "What?"
"Explanations will only make things complicated, so there is no need to explain."
After Ryan finished speaking, he asked again, "Do you regret what happened tonight?"
She shook her head slightly.
She did not regret what she did to Danna and Winona tonight. It was the retribution they deserved.
"...Even if I say I regret it, what difference can it make? They designed all this on their own initiative, just to ruin my reputation. Now, they just shot themselves in the foot."
