Chapter 209

  Jessica usually wouldn't drink too much at any dinner party. If it weren't for the fact that one of the guests was in charge of the approval of her projects, Jessica would probably have started to refuse the drinks.

  Jessica frowned at her glass. She didn't feel like drinking any more wine.

  Thus, Jessica decided to pretend to puke. After all, no one would dare to make things difficult for her.

  With that in mind, Jessica lowered her head. Suddenly, a cold voice chimed in, "Mr. Wyatt, I'd like to propose a toast."

  Jessica lowered her eyes and looked at the wine glass in her hand. Then people started to make fun of the two.
