Chapter 162
Elizabeth hadn't even finished talking when Neil downed his drink in one go.
He smiled at her and asked, "Does this show my sincerity?"
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow and smiled. "It does. I'll join you!" She lifted her glass and took a sip.
Elizabeth wasn't one to shy away from a drink. She didn't want to make a fuss and ruin the mood.
"Mr. Green, we still have business to discuss. Don't overdo it," Charles reminded Neil with a smile.
Neil waved it off. "I know my limits."
Elizabeth gave Charles a reassuring look. Both she and Neil knew their limits.
"Alright." Charles nodded, still looking a bit worried.
"Mr. Green, what's your role in this project?" Elizabeth asked Neil warmly.
Neil started chatting enthusiastically with her.
During their conversation, Elizabeth had a few drinks with him, but mostly she was pouring for him.
Neil got so into the conversation that he didn't notice how much Elizabeth was drinking.
But soon, Neil's hand started wandering, occasionally touching the back of Elizabeth's hand, trying to make contact.
Elizabeth just smiled and didn't take it seriously. Neil got bolder, holding her fingers and saying, "A pretty girl's hand feels different."
Elizabeth felt a wave of disgust.
'What a creep!' she cursed in her mind.
"Really? Mr. Green, do you like it?" Elizabeth squinted and smiled.
"Who wouldn't like a beautiful woman?" His hand moved from her hand to her shoulder.
Elizabeth kept smiling.
He thought she was easy.
Otherwise, she would've pushed him away when he first touched her hand.
Thinking this, Neil leaned closer and asked, "Do you want to get into the entertainment industry?"
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow, staring at him. His hand slid to her waist, and he whispered, "How about I help you out?"
Elizabeth thought this guy was nuts.
Charles was her uncle. If she wanted fame, she didn't need his help.
"Even with the Percy family's resources, the entertainment industry has its own rules. Sometimes money isn't enough. If you follow me..." Neil's words got bolder.
Elizabeth removed his hand, smiling innocently. "Mr. Green, I'm just an ordinary person. She placed his hand back on the table, tapped it gently with a warm smile, and continued, "Besides, it's not up to me. I have to discuss it with my husband."
Neil was stunned. 'Elizabeth's husband?'
"Neil, as influential as you are, don't you know my husband?" Elizabeth blinked, her face full of innocent charm. She softly added, "He is Alexander."
Alexander's name was like a spell, instantly sobering Neil up.
Elizabeth sighed. She thought everyone knew she was Alexander's wife.
She didn't expect there were still people who didn't know.
She couldn't imagine how Alexander introduced himself to others.
Did he say he was still single?
"Neil, if I wanted to get into the entertainment industry, wouldn't Alexander be able to help me?" Elizabeth asked playfully.
