Chapter 79 All Drunk
Jennifer had no idea what he was up to, thinking he was showing his true colors and still was the previous pathetic man, which made her stomp her feet in anger.
Jonathon couldn't wait to fill James's glass, and subtly scoffed while toasting, "James, come on, bro, let me toast with you again! I really envy you marrying such a beautiful and elegant wife like Jennifer. You're truly a lucky dog!"
He said this with a hint of sarcasm, his gaze lingering on Jennifer, with an extremely creepy expression.
However, James seemed oblivious, still foolishly chatted with Jonathon, and replied, "yep, marrying Jennifer is indeed the greatest blessing of my life."
‘Oh really, I'll play with your wife right in front of you later, and you're going to be a loser!’
Jonathon mused and smirked sinisterly, excited at the thought of such a scene.
Downing a full glass of hard liquor, James's face turned even redder. Then he burped, his breath sprayed Jonathon in the face, almost making Jonathon vomit.
"How strong is this liquor? It's so potent," James asked.
"Haha, it is not that strong, especially for men like us. It's only fun to drink with this kind of liquor!" Jonathon said as he laughed maliciously, casting a glance at Jennifer, noticing her watery eyes and flushed face at that moment. Obviously, the drug was starting to take effect, her sexy appearance making him unable to help but swallow hard.
He signaled to the others to join to quickly get James very drunk.
Someone said, "Here, James, I toast to you."
Another offer followed, "James, Let’s have one more."
One added, "James, cheers..."
This liquor was about fifty percent stronger, James drank five glasses in one go, anyone else would not have been able to handle it, but James still appeared unfazed, initially looking slightly tipsy but never actually drunk.
On the contrary, it was Jonathon who, after toasting to James twice and drinking two glasses himself, along with the five bottles of beer he had earlier, was now feeling light-headed and tipsy.
Even Director Jenkins, who didn't have a particularly good tolerance for alcohol, was starting to feel a bit woozy.
This was baffling, James had consumed so much, why wasn't he drunk yet?
Jonathon grew increasingly anxious, his prostate acting up, having visited the restroom seven or eight times already, his face also turned somewhat pale.
James burped again, and stated, "I'm getting drunk; I really can't drink anymore, Mr. Jones; let's drink another time; I'll go back with my wife now."
"No!" Jonathon suddenly shouted loudly, feeling somewhat irritated, thinking this situation was supposed to be a sure win. With the drug they had already administered, Jonathon just needed to wait for Jennifer to feel its effects. But now that James wanted to leave, how could he accept that?
He stared at James intently, his eyes bloodshot with frustration.
"Drink, you must keep drinking!" Jonathon said sternly.
Jennifer had by now realized that something was wrong with her body. As a doctor, she knew exactly why she was feeling this way without needing to say it - Jonathon had added drugs to her glass while she was in the restroom!
Dennis and the two directors present had clearly been bribed by Jonathon. Tonight's event was a conspiracy against her!
So, she desperately wanted to leave immediately, to rid herself of this damn drug's effects.
She grabbed James, signaling for him to stop drinking, but she was feeling too uncomfortable herself at the moment.
Just as she was about to speak, a strange sound escaped her mouth, causing her to quickly shut it, feeling too embarrassed to continue.
James, unaware of her current condition, forced a smile and said, "Let's all call it a night. I'm already at my limit."
He acted as if he was about to collapse at any moment.
Jonathon saw a glimmer of hope, gritted his teeth, refilled James's glass, and poured himself a glass of beer, "Man, there is no limit on you! Come on, drink one more time. We're good buddies."
James seized his hand, saying, "Mr. Jones, this glass seems to be beer, right? Since we're drinking, let's have hard liquor together."
With that, without giving Mr. Jones a chance to react, he filled a glass of hard liquor for Mr. Jones and handed it to him.
Seeing the full glass, Mr. Jones gulped nervously, his face turning sour. He was already feeling dizzy, and if he downed another glass of hard liquor, he would feel even worse.
He still had plans for Jennifer; if he could have Jennifer later, then everything would be worth it. How could he let James take him down? So, he signaled Dennis nearby to step in and take the shot of hard liquor.
Dennis had also had quite a bit to drink, with average tolerance for alcohol. At this point, he was feeling dizzy, and seeing the full glass of hard liquor, he worried.
But he dared not refuse, having already participated in Jonathon’s plan; it was too late to back out now, so he braced himself and drank the liquor for Jonathon.
James smiled faintly and drank one glass of hard liquor. He then proceeded to toast the others one by one, making each recipient nervous.
"James, didn't you say you can't drink hard liquor?" a confidant said with a grimace, having been toasted twice by James and struggling to keep his eyes open.
James replied, "I really can't handle hard liquor, I'm about to get drunk."
I should have never trusted you!
Everyone present could see that James was good at drinking hard liquor, too. He had already consumed nearly three liters of liquor and still appeared unaffected. Any other person would have passed out long ago.
Five minutes later, James successfully got everyone drunk, especially Jonathon, who had been the most heavily targeted by James and was now sprawled on the couch, sleeping like a log.
James glanced at everyone, suddenly smiling. How could he possibly look drunk now?
He then slapped Jonathon hard twice, the sound echoing in the room, but Jonathon didn't even flinch, completely passed out.
"You fat fool, how dare you have filthy thoughts about Jennifer?" James said and disdainfully kicked Jonathon, who curled up in response. He then turned around, intending to take Jennifer back, but was suddenly embraced by a warm body.
It was Jennifer, holding him tight.
