Chapter 347

The corners of Hunter’s lips lifted into a smile when he heard that.

“Don’t worry. Even if the sky falls, I’ve got it covered. And if I can’t handle it, Queenie’s cousin will. Her cousin is the vice president of our company!

“While vice presidents may not be that significant in other companies, being the vice president of Universal Group means that he holds a lot of weight. He’s at least a senior shareholder in the House of Representatives. He has a strong say in the company’s headquarters.”

Justin had also consumed quite a bit of alcohol and was now speaking arrogantly.

“Justin, be more discreet!” Queenie reminded him softly.

Justin realized he was boasting too much, so he just smiled as he lit a cigarette.

Hera flicked the water off her hands before making her way back to the private room.

“Whose turn was it to drink again? We should sign the contract once this round is over.”

She felt better after emptying her stomach. Although she was a little drunk, she had not forgotten her objective for today.

“It’s my turn now. I’m not great with alcohol, but I must make sure Ms. Lewis enjoys herself today!” Sally raised her glass and said with a cheerful smile.

As the manager of the finance department, she had to make this toast. For a large company like Universal Group, they had numerous suppliers to entertain.

Anyone in the business world would know that collecting payment as suppliers was an agonizing experience. This included suppliers like Baroque Group. If their customers were to fail to settle their payments, they would also have to delay payment to their own suppliers.

There were only pros to maintaining a good relationship with the finance department, no cons.

“Ms. Graham, I look forward to working with you in the future!” Hera said.

“Of course, absolutely!” Queenie replied.

Both of them downed the contents of their glasses. Hera sat back down, feeling her vision begin to blur as a warmth spread through her body gradually.

Justin asked softly, “Ms. Lewis, are you alright?”

Hera shook her head. “I-I’m fine. I must have drank too much.”

She slumped into her chair just as she said that. Her body was getting hotter and hotter as an itch

spread all over her body.

She drank too much? It was clear that someone had drugged her!

She watched as Justin and the others left but could not hear anything. Then, only she and Hunter were left in the private room.

“Hera, are you alright? Let me take you to rest!”

Hunter rose forward to support Hera. When he caught the fragrance coming off her body, he felt himself getting excited.

The moment Hunter touched Hera, however, the door of the room broke off along with the adjacent wall with a resounding crash.

“N-Nash…”

Hunter’s expression shifted. He lifted a wine bottle before swinging it over the man.

Nash shattered the bottle with a fist. “You dare touch my woman? You’re asking for it…”

His voice was cold, and the temperature in the room had dropped to freezing levels.

Hunter’s vision turned black. Nash was holding him by the neck as he lifted him off the ground. He then swung him down, and Hunter felt as if his limbs had broken into pieces.

Following that, Nash grabbed a wine bottle and smashed it violently against Hunter’s skull before breaking his limbs with his hands.

Hera was completely out of it at this point. She was grabbing at her clothes with both hands.

It was so itchy and hot! She felt so uncomfortable!

Nash shrugged off his coat, putting it over Hera’s body. He then carried her out of the room.

A staff member who just so happened to hear the commotion came over, and Nash immediately stopped her. “Get me a room!”

The staff member looked at the woman in his arms and said through pursed lips, “Sir, please please show your ID card or your Universal Group work badge!”

Nash took out his ID card and handed it over. The staff member then quickly prepared a room. When she returned, her face was as pale as a sheet.

“How much is it?” Nash asked.

The staff member just handed the ID card back with trembling hands as she stammered, “T-There’s no charge…
