Chapter 680 Pretending to Be Untouched?

But Philip and his friends had experienced a lot in the club. They had met all kinds of women.They found Evie's deliberately put-on pitiful expression amusing, and their emotions remainedunaffected.

Philip even laughed and said, "Are you kidding? Who works in the club but can't drink?"

The other rich young men in the private room followed suit and laughed.

They said, "Is this woman watching too many romance episodes? Thinking that pretending to bevirtuous in this place can attract rich men’s attention?”

"This look on her face doesn't belong to the naive seventeen or eighteen-year-old. How could it stillharbor such unrealistic fantasies?"

The continuous mocking made Evie's face burn with embarrassment.

She desperately looked at Byron, hoping he would say something to help her out of this situation.However, to her surprise, Byron seemed to have forgotten about her and was engrossed in chattingwith Harry.

Philip noticed Evie's continuous glances toward Byron and said, "Why do you keep looking atByron? He never meddles in others’ business. You can forget about him speaking up for you. Eitherdrink or pay up. Don't waste time."

Evie wanted to say something.

At that moment, possibly because Philip mentioned him, Byron suddenly glanced at this corner.His gaze was deep, cold, and vast, making Evie shy.

Byron noticed her.

To him, she still had a little special place.

So, he would indeed speak up for her.

Evie held her breath anxiously, hoping Byron would teach these people a lesson.

However, after waiting anxiously for a while, Byron picked up a nearby glass of wine, took a sip, andcontinued chatting with Harry as if he had forgotten about Evie completely.

At that moment, Evie was filled with excitement, and the next second, she felt utterly disappointed.Annoyed and unwilling, she picked up the bottle of wine Philip had mentioned and began drinkingfrom it directly.

She kept drinking excessively, trying to appear brave, and making others feel excited.

But the others in the private room mocked Evie even more.

"Look at her pretending not to know how to drink. She looks more heroic than us,” one of themsneered.

"I'll just say that she pretends not to drink. You see, she is more heroic than us.”

"She thinks pretending to be untouched can attract us, who have already experienced everything.Those TV series tricks are outdated.”

Amidst the cold mockery, Evie drank the entire bottle of alcohol, and her head spun.

She was later carried out by staff after appearing to pass out later in the private room.

In her semi-conscious state, someone seemed to be undressing her.

She opened her eyes slightly and thought she saw Byron.

She murmured, "Mr. Hansen."

However, that person seemed impatient and asked, "Who is Mr. Hansen?"

She wanted to say something, but her mind was still blurry.

Eventually, she lost consciousness altogether.

When she woke up the following day, she found herself beside Elwood, her clothes barely on.

She assumed it was Elwood, whom she had been with last night.

She thought it was Byron.

She felt highly disappointed.

However, she swore to herself that she would make last night's dream come true one day.

On the other side, Byron went to the Yoris Mansion after the party with Harry.

It was already midnight.

The butler recognized Byron as Cora's ex-husband and Martin's father, so he reluctantly let him inand opened the door.

Upon entering, Byron went straight upstairs to Cora's room.
