Revenge On My First Love
Chapter 272 A Good Drinker

Sophia said, smiling, "Well, you have to be good at drinking to do business, right? I have drunk three glasses of wine to fulfill my promise to Mr. Porter. Now, shall we start eating?" "Okay! I am really hungry now!"

And then everyone began to eat.

But before long, Hank stood up, walked to Sophia and said with his glass in his hand, "Ms. Lawson, I'd like to propose a toast to you."

Sophia couldn't refuse it. She said with a smile, "Of course, Mr. Parks."

Before drinking, Hank said, "I have worked in the company for the least years here, and I am very honored to be here at the same table with all of you. Ms. Lawson, I hope we can become close partners at work."

Sophia seemed to casually say, "I have seen your resume. Although you are the youngest here, you have huge potential. I believe that as long as you do well in your job, you will have a promising future." Hank squinted his eyes and couldn't quite understand what Sophia's words meant. Did she know that he and Spencer were colluding?

But no one in the company knew it. How could she, someone who had just started working here, knew that?

Or maybe he was just thinking too much? She didn't mean anything at all?

Thinking of this, Hank just politely answered, "Ms. Lawson, Thank you for your appreciation, I will work hard!"

Both of them drank up the wine.

Spencer smiled, "Ms. Lawson, you are a really good drinker!"

Sophia smiled and said, "I can't sit here if I don't have some true ability. After all, my family can't do everything for me. I gotta make it on my own in the business world."

Sophia said bluntly, but also with a hidden message

Spencer's face didn't change and he had been wearing a sly smile, "I have seen a lot of ladies coming from rich families trying to start a business on their own, but never had I met someone so competent like you. I admire you, Ms. Lawson."

"I'd like to propose another toast to you."

Sophia had anticipated this, so before she came, she brought some pills to keep herself sober. She couldn't let Spencer get her drunk!

She grabbed her glass, "Of course, Mr. Porter."

Everyone stared at them, dumbfounded. They often had social engagements with clients, but never drank so much wine as Sophia did.

But Sophia drank so much and didn't seem to feel anything.

Mr. Porter was determined to get her drunk today and he was sure he could.

At dinner, he kept winking at a few men, who pretended not to see it.

But they couldn't keep ignoring him, so they all stood up one by one after that.

"Ms. Lawson, I'd also like to propose a toast to you."

Sophia noticed Spencer's winking, but she didn't care much about it and kept raising her glass.

However, the executive who proposed the toast said to her, "Ms. Lawson, you drank a lot just now, you don't have to drink. This is just me showing my respect to you." Spencer looked at him with a warning look but the executive ignored him.

Sophia sneered. In this society, this was just how things worked. Men chased after benefits and obeyed people who could bring benefits to them.

"Thank you then, Mr. Martin."

"You are welcome!"

Then, several executives did the exact same thing. Although Sophia didn't drink much, her glass was empty.

After Mr. Martin went to the men's room, Spencer followed him.

In the men's room, Spencer stopped in front of him.

"She just gave you some benefits and you betrayed me already? Do you know the consequences of betraying me?"

Mr. Martin said without any fear, "We bowed to you because we were afraid of you, but we are not afraid anymore. You don't have to threaten me here. I won't buy it!"

"Oh? Can you be sure she will have this company in control forever?"

Mr. Martin smiled, "Mr. Porter, when change comes, you gotta adapt. We respected you when Abby was in charge, but this is Sophia Lawson, not Abby. I advise you to do what's good for you." "You don't get to lecture me!" Spencer was mad.

Mr. Martin snorted. Who did this fool think he was? Did he know Sophia Lawson? She had Travis Lawson and Drake Riley helping her. Any of them could ruin Spencer's life!

Spencer had usually been smart, and now he was blinded by power and interests!

After Mr. Martin left, Hank walked up to Spencer.

"Mr. Porter, you can rest assured. I have arranged everything for tonight."

Spencer looked at him with a smile. "Good job!"

"Thank you!"

"Let's go back and don't let anyone replace out our plan." "Okay."

When everyone was in the room, Drake came in.

Although some people here had met him before, they had never got a chance to talk to him, let alone have dinner with him.

Today, because they were Sophia's colleagues now, they got to meet Drake in person.

Therefore, they all said in surprise, "Mr. Riley, why are you here?"

Even Sophia herself was surprised.

Drake said with a playful smile, "I heard you are having dinner here tonight. My fiancee didn't invite me, saying that this is an internal get-together. But I came uninvited anyway." "Sophia, you wouldn't mind, would you?"

His simple words had shown their relationship and intimacy.

Sophia knew that he was here to support her, obviously.

And since he was already here, she should make the best of it. She smiled and said. "Everyone, this is Mr. Drake Riley from the Riley Group, and also, my future husband." Everyone had heard the words "fiancee" and "future husband".

Drake raised his glass. "I am here today to support my future wife, who has always attached great importance to her career. However, she might not be as experienced as you. I hope you can help her at work. Thank you."

Everyone was delighted at his words, though they all knew that Drake was just trying to show them some respect by saying so.

After all, Sophia was competent enough to be where she was now.

They all stood up, "You are flattering us, Mr. Riley. Ever since Ms. Lawson came, we have benefited a lot. We should thank her instead!"
