Chapter 151 Standing up for Elizabeth
Laura asked again, "Mr. Windsor, what did you say?"
She couldn't believe her ears. Alexander actually wanted her to play the role of a bar girl. She had never been so humiliated before.
"You will be a bar girl!" Alexander said calmly.
Laura immediately retorted coldly, "Mr. Windsor! Don't you already have a bar girl with you? I am not a bar girl! I won't play the role of a bar girl!"
Alexander's tone remained calm, "Then what are you here for today?"
Laura answered, "I came with Mr. Bell."
"Mr. Bell's wife should be Gideon's cousin, right?" Alexander suddenly asked, "May I ask, in what capacity are you here?"
Laura was silent.
"You are a bar girl! Are you trying to act noble?" Alexander said mercilessly.
Tears welling up in Laura's eyes, she said with a sob, "Mr. Windsor." As soon as she started speaking, Elizabeth instinctively covered her nose, it was hard to stand the particularly pungent smell.
When she was in Collinsport, she had been busy on a construction site for a while, and the local climate didn't suit her, causing her nasal passages to become sensitive. She especially couldn't stand strong, pungent perfume.
Seeing Elizabeth cover her nose, Laura's anger reached its peak, shouting, "You! You are the bar girl! Why are you covering your nose? You could never afford perfume like mine in your lifetime!"
Elizabeth bit her lip and looked at Laura calmly, saying, "Miss! I am a bar girl, you don't need to remind me. Could you please sit a bit farther from me? Mr. Windsor asked you to be a bar girl, it has nothing to do with me, right? I don't know you, I've never seen you before. So we shouldn't have any grudges, right? Why are you picking on me? Earlier in the bathroom, you asked me to fetch your shoes, now scolding me in front of everyone. I am just Alexander's bar girl, not yours. Please sit farther away from me!"
Remaining silent, Laura really wanted to hit this lowly bar girl!
But when she saw Alexander's cold and sharp gaze, Laura immediately stopped her actions.
"You asked her to fetch your shoes?" Alexander asked flatly.
Laura was silent.
"Sixty shots as punishment!" Alexander said nonchalantly.
Laura was instantly terrified, saying, "Mr. Windsor, I... sixty shots would ruin my stomach, because I rarely drink."
"Ninety shots," Alexander said expressionlessly.
Everyone around was shocked.
Only Gideon remained calm. Next to Gideon, Nicole smiled warmly at Elizabeth and handed her a bottle of mineral water, saying, "Drink some water, it might help you tolerate the smell better."
Elizabeth nodded slightly, saying, "Thank you."
Dominic was also stunned, trying to rescue Laura and was about to speak, but Gideon stopped him, "Dominic, what is your purpose for being here today?"
Dominic didn't dare to speak.
It was only then that Laura realized she might have offended Alexander today, but she thought, she hadn't done anything wrong, had she?
She just asked Elizabeth, the bar girl, to help her fetch her shoes, and then she said some things to warm up the atmosphere that everyone wanted to say, didn't she?
What did she do wrong?
Looking around, no one was pleading for her, so Laura had to save herself. She immediately softened her voice, pleading with a smile, "Mr. Windsor, I'm sorry, I rarely come to such occasions, maybe I didn't understand the rules. Please, Mr. Windsor, guide me clearly. Whatever I did wrong, I will correct it. Please give me a chance, Mr. Windsor, okay?"
Alexander glanced at Laura.
Then he looked at Elizabeth, saying, "Why did she ask you to fetch her shoes earlier?"
Elizabeth lowered her head and shook it, replying, "I don't know her. I was washing my hands, and this lady came in, asking me to fetch her shoes."
After speaking, Elizabeth looked at Alexander indifferently, saying, "Mr. Windsor, I don't understand the games you are playing. After all, this is my first time on such an occasion. Just tell me what you want me to do, and I'll do it."
Alexander looked at Laura again, ordering, "Alright, you will half-squat to fetch Elizabeth's shoes, and then seek her forgiveness. If she forgives you, you won't have to drink the shots. Okay?"
Laura was silent. Fetch shoes for Elizabeth, the bar girl?
And half-squat to seek Elizabeth's forgiveness?
Laura felt this was a great humiliation, but seeing Alexander who clearly wouldn't let her off, she immediately cowered. She looked at Elizabeth, walking towards her step by step.
Elizabeth reflexively moved to the side, asking, "You... don't come near me! I hate your smell! Stay away, it stinks!"
Gideon almost laughed out loud.
Next to Gideon, Nicole also smiled at Elizabeth.
Calvin and Caspian exchanged glances.
Laura was extremely embarrassed, smiling more painfully than crying and pleading with Elizabeth, "Miss Spencer, please let me fetch your shoes once, otherwise, I have to drink ninety shots, or I will die."
Elizabeth's tone was cold and indifferent, "Sorry! I didn't ask you to drink, stay away from me!"
It wasn't that Elizabeth lacked sympathy.
She was a woman at the mercy of others, not knowing what would happen next. She couldn't save Laura, especially because Laura had been so arrogant in the bathroom, and after coming out, Laura was very scheming and clearly thrived on such occasions.
Why would Laura need her to give her a chance?
It was probably a game, right?
Elizabeth couldn't play games, just wanting to protect herself.
Moreover, Laura's smell was indeed unpleasant.
"Come here!" Alexander called to Elizabeth, "Sit next to me."
Elizabeth obediently sat next to Alexander who looked up coldly at Laura and said, "Elizabeth doesn't agree, so you can only drink ninety shots. Don't negotiate with me, or it will be one hundred and twenty shots. Everyone who knows me knows I mean what I say. Drink up, Ms. Mitchell. Is your last name Mitchell?"
When Alexander asked this, Laura immediately answered honestly, "Yes, Mr. Windsor, my name is Laura Mitchell."
Alexander just said disdainfully, "No matter what your name is, you look like you're sick. You said you can't drink, do you have AIDS?"
Laura answered, "I don't have any disease."
"Then drink the ninety shots!" Alexander suddenly shouted.
