Chapter 106 Drink After Drink
In others’ eyes, it seemed like that.
But in reality, her lips only touched the corner of his.
A fake kiss!
Enduring the pungent taste of the wine, she swallowed it all and whispered in a very soft voice, "That's enough like this, go along with me, act natural, don't let anyone notice."
Giorgio didn't expect her to have such ideas.
Feeling her breath against his face, his deep eyes narrowed slightly. He raised his hand, wrapped it around her waist, and exerted a little force, bringing their bodies together.
Anna blushed and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Didn't you ask me to go along with you? Can't a kiss come with an embrace? Is this natural enough for you?" He replied.
He always had a reason! And at this moment, she felt very uncomfortable.
Her body was pressed against his broad chest, and through the suit, she could feel the firm contours of his muscles. They were so close, with his refreshing and pleasant breath tickling her nose.
Most importantly, his lips were at the corner of hers—soft and warm. Their breaths intertwined intimately, filled with tender affection.
"Wow! The newlyweds are so happy and loving!"
"The air is filled with sweetness."
"Let's have a second toast!"
"We should record this."
Record? Anna was immediately frightened and pushed Giorgio away, her face red. "Mrs., there's no need for recording, it's awkward."
"Not awkward."
"You two are so in love, we need to record it for everyone to enjoy and as a memento for you."
"Yes, let's combine the second and third glasses, and make the kiss longer, for more happiness."
The ladies exclaimed and opened their phone videos. A waiter immediately approached and poured the wine into a glass, handing it to Anna. Anna felt like dying. With a video, they couldn't possibly fake it. And she had just drunk a glass, feeling a bit dizzy already. If she drank another big glass, she would get drunk, right?
Giorgio naturally understood that Anna couldn't handle alcohol well, so he elegantly took the glass and said, "My wife is shy. She took the initiative once, so this time, I'll take the lead."
Without waiting for anyone's approval, he drank the wine in the glass, pulled her slender waist into his arms, and lowered his head, kissing her lips.
Everything happened so quickly, so suddenly. Anna stared in shock at his enlarged handsome face, her whole body tensed up. Was he used to kissing like this? So casually? And he kept calling her 'wife,' as if it came naturally. For some reason, he called her Katherine and kissed her, which made her feel uneasy. She wanted to resist, but he exerted more force. She leaned backward, and he pressed forward. In the end, it became more like a passionate embrace.
Their breaths, the aroma of wine, mixed together, creating an indescribable ambiguity. Anna was about to suffocate. Fortunately, at that moment, Giorgio let her go and whispered close to her lips, "Katherine is very proactive with me. The way you're behaving makes it too obvious."
So, he kissed her and then blamed her? Did that mean he preferred Katherine being proactive? Anna couldn't be bothered to respond to him.
"We've recorded it, captured it! So sweet!"
"That's something for the bridal chamber. Let's leave them alone for now." The ladies finally stopped their commotion, satisfied, and took out their carefully prepared gifts.
"Katherine, I know you love beauty. This is Phoenix Beauty Club, and you'll be the chairman from now on." Phoenix Beauty Club, the number one beauty center in the aristocratic circle! Besides being wealthy, one must also have a prestigious status to be served there! Rumor has it that even those worth billions of dollars have to make an appointment to get beauty treatments there! Now, it's directly given to Katherine!
"Katherine, you're very dedicated to the film industry. Unfortunately, I don't have anything exceptional to give, but here's a contract for all entertainers. You can choose anyone you want, and even the Actors and Actresses must address you as Boss."
Actors! Her idols! They can actually work for her and call her Boss!
"Katherine, you travel a lot for filming, so we have prepared properties for you in every city and place around the world. These are property deeds..."
All over the world! Whether it's London or Paris! Jesus! Anna was nearly blinded. Is this how extravagant gifts are given in the world of the wealthy?
A lady dressed in luxurious elegance walked out and said gently, "Katherine, although my mother-in-law has passed away, she always thought of you. So, I've prepared a special gift for you—to acknowledge you as her daughter. From now on, you'll be the princess of Crownhaven."
Princess of Crownhaven!
With just a few words, everyone in the private room was shocked!
The nobility of the powerful and influential is unmatched by ordinary socialites.
And now, Katherine has become the most esteemed princess!
"This is amazing! Katherine, quickly express your gratitude to the ladies," Viviana exclaimed excitedly.
The Vittorio family truly enjoyed great fortune.
Anna couldn't quite grasp the situation and instinctively blurted out, "Ladies, aren't these gifts too luxurious..."
But the ladies did not mind and smiled gently, saying, "Katherine, if it weren't for you saving us back then, we would have starved to death on the mountain. You are our savior, and it's only natural that we do this for you."
"Yes, no matter how valuable the gifts are, they can't compare to the heartfelt intentions."
"Please, in the future, if you encounter any difficulties, feel free to come to us."
Anna furrowed her brows slightly.
Starving to death? On the mountain?
When she was young, she saved a group of people as well, on a mountain. But she was too young and too much time had passed, so she couldn't remember their faces.
Who would have thought that Katherine also saved people who were almost starving on the mountain? And now they have come to express their gratitude?
How fortunate.
No wonder her parents doted on Katherine so much. In comparison, she was truly unlucky.

Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and other social media platforms were all filled with news about their wedding!
In a serene room that was a complete contrast to the lively atmosphere, Carla sat by the bed, projecting the live broadcast. Her eyes turned red as she watched Katherine lying there with an IV drip, her voice choked up, "Katherine, can you hear me? You are now a princess, the most honored woman. You must wake up."
"Think about Giorgio, Charlie, me and your dad, Fabio, and the movie you're working on. You wouldn't want to abandon all of them, right?"
"Wake up, everything is yours..."
However, no matter what she said, Katherine remained still on the bed, without a trace of a response.
Fabio, who rushed back as soon as he heard the news, saw this scene and his eyes turned bloodshot, his fists clenched!
Just this morning, he had given her gifts, and they were happily chatting and laughing together. And now she had become a half-dead person in a coma!
"Was it Anna's doing? That heartless woman! I'll go find her and make her pay! I'll skin her alive!"
