Chapter 559 You Cannot Drink That
I wouldn't be where I am today if Alex had not lent me a hand on several occasions. In fact, I might have dralready died somewhere on the streets if he didn't help me. So, Alex's business is my business. Someone
trying to drug his wife is the same as someone trying to drug my wife. I can't let that slide!" Dylan sounded dead serious.
icle was betrayed by women multiple times by now, and every time, Alex would show up at the critical nanoment to bail him out. Moreover, Alex gave him hope for the future.
Simply put, Alex was not only a friend to Dylan, but he was also a good boss and a good parent.
Deep down in Dylan's heart, he had already decided long ago that if Alex wanted him to die, he would take his own life without a moment's hesitation.
Hence, no matter who that guy was, Dylan was intervening.
Seeing how determined he was, Jasmine was a little astonished. It was the first time she had ever seen such a strong bond between men. It completely shattered her understanding of men. So, she nodded her head to Dylan and said nothing more.
There was even a brief instant where Jasmine actually thought Dylan was manly.
On the other hand, Heather got back from the washroom, and as soon as she sat down, Stuart eagerly handed her a glass of drink.
"Here, Heather. Tonight's been fun. Let's have one last drink together."
When Heather heard that it was going to be their last drink, she nodded drink.

Frankly, she could not drink anymore even if Stuart wanted to continue
So, they raised their glasses and shared a toast.
Nevertheless, before Heather was able to drink it, Dylan appeared and grabbed her han
Smash!
Heather was totally caught off guard and let the glass fall out of her hand, shattering into pieces when. the floor. "D-Dylan?"
She immediately felt nervous when she saw him as she knew how close he and Alex were.
Dylan's a good friend of Alex. Will Alex get angry if Dylan told him about me drinking with another man at a bar? Heather started panicking a little.
But then, she thought about how hopeless Alex was and realized she did not need to feel afraid.
She figured she could use this as an opportunity to pressure Alex, give him a sense of danger and get that inheritance from his family.
With that thought in mind, Heather quickly calmed down and put up a frown. "Dylan, what are you doing?"
"You can't drink that." Dylan loosened his grip on her hand and said with a determined tone.
His eyes were fixated on Stuart as he said that.
After all the things he had been through, Dylan had changed. He was no longer the weak man he once
was.
He was unafraid of Stuart's overwhelming presence because he knew that he had Four Seas Corporation backing him up.
His backer was none other than Alex Jefferson, the man with endless possibilities.
At the same time, Stuart was also sizing Dylan up.
"Hey, man. Who are you again? What's the meaning of this?" Stuart said with a grin after the two stared each other down for several seconds.
He sounded unyielding as well, but there was not a hint of anger in his voice or his expression, exuding superiority.
Dylan grew wary after hearing that.
This guy's not going to be easy. He feels like someone from a prominent family.
He figured anyone would get mad after their plans to drug a woman was foiled like that. Some would even attack. However, Stuart was surprisingly calm, and Dylan could tell that Stuart was definitely not from the common folk.
No one without a strong backing could act that unshaken in a situation like that. That was not something anyone could fake.
