Chapter 346
Hera took a seat between Justin and Hunter. To her surprise, Hunter did not harass her like he used to. Instead, he just sipped his drink silently, not even glancing in her direction.
Hera could not help but curse to herself silently as she sat down.
She was called away midway to pay the bill while they were in the middle of dining and drinking. It was clear they were treating her like a cash cow. However, she was willing to do anything if it meant that they could close the deal.
Justin tilted his head and chuckled. “Ms. Lewis, I didn’t know you were acquainted with my cousin. I wouldn’t have negotiated so aggressively otherwise.”
Hera was surprised. “Hunter is your cousin?”
“It’s not too late to learn about it now. Have a drink with my cousin!”

Hunter looked over casually. “If you’re gonna make a toast, make sure your glass is full. What’s with that meager amount?”
“Yeah, Ms. Lewis. You need to fill it up!”

“Ms. Lewis, we can’t lose to a man!”
Two of the female employees started to cheer and chant. When Hera heard the last statement, she thought of Nash. They managed to get the business deal with Drake Group thanks to Nash’s influence.
Today, she was here to negotiate an even larger deal than the one with Drake Group. ‘I’ll definitely make you notice me,’ she thought to herself.
With this thought in mind, Hera poured herself a full glass of wine. Hunter was satisfied and raised his glass to clink with hers.
At Justin’s persuasion, Hera then toasted the managers of the audit department and then the procurement department. Her face was turning red from the multiple glasses of wine she was ingesting.
Justin later then poured half a glass for both himself and Hera. He said with a smile, “You’ve toasted
1. Now it’s our turn…”
“Why just half a glass? Are you even a man?”
Hera shot Justin a look of annoyance before moving to top up her glass on her own. This left Justin completely stunned. He had been contemplating how to get Hera to drink and finally decided to pour her half a glass at a time.
Now, she was taking the initiative to fill up her own glass.
The night before had been his cousin’s birthday, and Justin had attended the birthday banquet at the Halls’ residence. His cousin had looked depressed and seemed troubled by something.

“Mr. Long, what are you waiting for? Hera has already filled her glass. You can’t back down now, can you?” mocked Queenie, the manager of the procurement department.
The business, audit, and finance departments had always been close. The three department managers frequently collaborated and had made quite a profit together. They often indulged in feasting and heavy drinking together. They never backed down when it came to urging others to drink.
“That’s right, fill it up quickly!” added Sally, the manager of the audit department, with a smile.
Justin feigned a wry smile. “Today, I shall drink to my death with Ms. Lewis!” He then filled his own glass, raised it, and added, “Let me take the first sip!”
