After that, Dazaray cto my side and invitedto sing.
| was sensible enough to know that Mr. Isaac was here to have a business talk with Theo. He placed a few young
ladies by Theo's side because he wanted Theo t o drink more and make talking business easier.
| was in the way because | had been sitting next to Theo the whole twithout saying a word. That was why he
sent Dazaray to takeaway.
I did not know how to sing nor did I like singing. | could not help but feel irritated when she forcedto sing.
Therefore, | got up and said, "It's getting late and we should get back to Shannon and the rest.”
Dazaray frowned, clearly unwilling to leave. "What's the hurry? Let's stay a while more."
She handeda glass of wine after saying that.

| pursed my lips and said lightly, "I drank a lot today and can’t drink anymore."
Dazaray smiled faintly. "This won't make any difference. Once you drink this glass, then I'll let bygones be
bygones. We'll be best friends from now o n."
| looked at her, not saying a word or taking the glass.
She was a person with a complex mind. It was not the greatest idea to befriend her.
Dazaray grabbed my hand and stuffed the glass into i t. If I did not drink it, then we would both stay awkward. |
had no choice but to drink it.
| was just about to drink it when a hand reached over and took the glass from my hand.
I was stunned and looked at the man beside me.
He immediately drank the wine in the glass. Dazaray looked at him and flashed him a tender smile. "Are you
trying to be the hero, Mr. Grant?"
Her smile madeuncomfortable. If a beautiful lady smiled, even if the smile was not pretty, it would not seem
hideous. However, if a woman who did not have particularly outstanding looks like Dazary let out a flirtatious
smile like that, it was certainly not very nice to look at.
Theo merely glanced faintly at her, not planning to say a word.
Dazaray was nonchalant about it, and the smile she thought was charming to look at was still plastered across
her face. "Wanda and | are best friends, Mr. Grant. We've known each other for so long yet I've never heard her
mention anything about knowing a good-looking man like you. Don't you think we should get to know each other
now that we've met?"
She poured another glass of wine for Theo and said with a smile, "We'll be considered acquaintances once you
drink this glass of wine. We should hang out often after this.”
This was a social convention that one would not usually think much about.
Theo glanced atwith slightly darkened pupils. | did not know what he was thinking about.

After a long time, he took the glass of wine in Dazaray's hand and said indifferently, "If you're
Wanda's friend, then I'll have to trouble you to take care of her in the future."
He downed the wine in the glass after saying that.
There was a flash of surprise on Dazaray's face. This was her first direct interaction with Theo, and she was very
happy because this interaction was extremely successful.
After drinking the wine in her glass, she said with a smile, "Don’t worry, Mr. Grant. Wanda and | went through a
near-death experience together. We're extremely close, so I'll naturally take good care of her."
Theo was a little stunned after hearing what she said. He then looked atand asked curiously, "Near-death
experience?"
| pursed my lips and looked away.
Dazaray thought Theo seemed very interested and started recounting excitedly, "We were sold abroad, and
many things happened that nearly cost us our lives. Fortunately, we survived the ordeal. We considered «
ourselves best friends after that."
