Chapter 195 Subtle Maneuvers
Charlotte’s eyes narrowed, and then she said, “Okay, please wait for me.”
Exiting the private room, Charlotte’s gaze landed on Gorya silling not far away.
Indeed, from the beginning, Charlotte never intended to come alone. She had asked Gorya to wait nearby. As soon as Gorya saw her leave with Donny, she followed.
Charlotte never overestimated herself. If she only had to deal with Donny, she could handle it. But if Donny had backup, she could be in danger.
Gorya subtly followed, “Why did you come out?”
Charlotte’s eyes flashed coldly, “I think he was planning to drug. the wine.”
From the beginning, there was something off about the waiter. Charlotte noticed the waiter’s gaze always drifting toward Donny. Only when Donny stopped talking did the waiter “conveniently” trip.
Gorya’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, “Do you want me to take care of him?”
This was the first time Charlotte felt a murderous intent from
Gorya.
She smiled, “No need. Since they have an ulterior motive, we should let them enjoy themselves for once.”
Charlotte leaned in close to Gorya and whispered a few words.
Gorya’s face instantly brightened up from anger, her eyes sparkling, “Okay! I’m on it.”
She nodded quickly and turned to leave.
Charlotte gracefully returned to the private room.
At this time, Donny was already sitting leisurely at the dining table, with a new bottle of red wine on the table. Seeing Charlotte entering, Donny even showed a gentle smile, “Is it done?”
Charlotte nodded, “Let’s continue our meal.”
Suddenly, Donny picked up his wine glass and raised it toward Charlotte, “I apologize for forgetting your birthday. This drink is to make up for it.”
He drank the wine in one go, staring intently at Charlotte.
As Charlotte hesitated, the door to the private room opened.
A charming red-lipped beauty entered, and Donny, who was interrupted from his anticipation, glanced over in displeasure. Seeing the beauty, he was momentarily stunned.
Are you David’s friend? The beauty asked with a smile, catching Donny’s attention.
Charlotte quickly switched the wine glasses and refilled her glass, pretending to pour wine for Donny.
Once the red-lipped beauty left, Donny turned his attention back to the table.
Charlotte pretended she had just finished pouring wine and quickly withdrew her hand.
By the time Donny’s attention returned to the table, this was the scene he saw.
Charlotte casually said, “I don’t accept your apology, but I’ll accept your wishes.”
Donny carefully observed Charlotte’s expression and he found nothing strange. Donny sighed in relief and raised his glass again, “It’s my fault. Let’s toast to your birthday.”
They both smiled at each other and finished their wine.
Charlotte’s phone lit up, showing only a room number.
She discreetly shifted her gaze back to Donny, who felt dizzy and faint.
