Chapter 55

Upon noticing that jack had finally started to refuse a drink and was even shaking his head, Ivan felt delighted in his heart. Judging from the look of things, it seemed jack might be reaching his limit. He immediately said, "It's fine, it's fine. Come on now, today is a happy day and we should all drink three shots!"

"Fine then!" jack pretended as if he was in a tough spot but still drank all of the alcohol slowly.

At this moment, jack had already drank more than ten glasses in a row as even the few elders and Ivan were feeling slightly tipsy. However, they all thought that jack should be close to getting drunk by now.

"Come on guys, we haven't had a drink together in a very long time now, let's all drink!" Ivan raised his glass and spoke to everyone present.

He scoffed in his heart that under a situation where everyone was drinking, jack would have no way to refuse and would be forced to drink.

"Alright, let's all drink. Let's drink for our Taylor Group's business to grow stronger!" Old Master Taylor smiled as he said that.

"Cheers!" Ivan immediately chugged the alcohol down.

Not long after he was done drinking, Ivan signaled the others to take turns making jack drink. He was interested to see how long jack could keep up. Unfortunately for him, although jack was not bold enough to refuse and seemed very close to getting drunk, he was still drinking glass after glass. On the other hand, it was the few elders that were completely flustered from drinking. Even their speech seemed to slur. Two of them even rushed to the washroom to puke not long after.

Ivan was completely furious as he went ahead to drink a few more glasses with jack. However, he ended up completely drunk while jack was still fine.

"Goddammit, what kind of a monster is this brat to have such a high alcohol tolerance?" A completely wasted man approached Ivan and commented with a frown.

"I told you that a veteran's alcohol tolerance would be impressive but this, isn't this a little too insane? The few of us were taking turns drinking with him and are still unable to get him drunk!"

Ivan had a bitter look on his face and was completely speechless.

It was at this moment that Tanya Drake, who had just finished a meal with her best friends, walked by the room. She heard how lively it was inside and decided to casually take a peek.

With a glance, she noticed that jack was actually drinking with the Taylor family.

"What's wrong? Let's go, Tanya. You wouldn't have actually been charmed by that handsome man inside now, would you?" One of the young ladies teased.

"You guys go on ahead, I'm not joining you guys for the shopping trip. There's someone I know inside and I have something to do!" Tanya immediately said with a smile.

"Alright then, we'll hang out some other day!" The other girls nodded and left soon after.

Tanya immediately pushed the door open and entered the room. She said, "Oh wow. I was just talking about how lively it was inside, it turned out to be the Taylor family!"

"Who are you? We, the Taylor family, are having a meal here. What is a stranger doing here?" Ivan was already holding onto the frustrations in his heart. In his drunken state, he yelled out immediately without even taking a closer look.
