Chapter 35
Dulcie was sitting in the corner of the couch and bawling her eyes out with a wine bottle in hand. Her makeup was all messed up, and her cheeks were stained with tears. It was a really pitiful sight.
Silvia sat beside her and removed the bottle from her grip. “What happened? Where’s your boyfriend?”
The mention of her boyfriend appeared to agitate Dulcie even more. She started to sob even louder as she spoke in a broken voice, “I’ve ditched… that b*stard…”
Listening to her account, Silvia finally pieced the whole thing together.
Dulcie thought that her boyfriend had taken her out for dinner to celebrate her birthday. To her surprise, he ended things with her. The reason was simple: His first love from college had returned to the country, and he wanted to give their relationship another shot.
Silvia gently patted Dulcie on the back and consoled her. “Don’t be upset. It’s great that you saw his true colors so early. You’ll find someone better in the future.”
Dulcie’s eyes were swollen from crying, but she still managed to reach out and grab the wine bottle
from Silvia.
“Give me the wine! I want to drink!”
Silvia set the bottle aside and said, “Stop drinking. You’re already drunk. I’ll take you home.”
“No, I’m not drunk yet! I still want to drink!”
Silvia decided not to reason with a drunkard, so she slung Dulcie over her shoulder and carried her
away.
After she dropped Dulcie off at her place, she got ready to leave. Right then, she realized that her phone was missing.
She retraced her steps and figured that she must have left it in the private room.
By the time she returned to the club, it was already past 11 p.m. Therefore, she headed straight to the private room.
When she opened the door, she saw a menacing man seated at the center of the room. He was toying with a silver phone. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Silvia narrowed her eyes and approached the man.
“Excuse me, Sir. That’s my phone. Could you return it to me?”
Her arrival caught the attention of others in the room. They stopped their conversation to watch the unfolding scene.
Many suspected that Silvia had no idea who Reid Galvan was. If not, she would not have been so
arrogant.
When Reid finally had a good look of Silvia’s face, a hint of amazement flickered in his eyes. She was much more beautiful than all the plain women he had encountered.
He gave her a lecherous look and responded in a suggestive tone, “Well, do you have any proof that this phone is yours?”
Silvia responded patiently, “I can unlock it.”

Reid chuckled. He nodded and said, “Alright, let’s say this is your phone. I’m the one who picked it up, though. If you want it back, don’t you think you should give something in return?”
“What do you want?”
“It’s simple. If you can down three glasses of wine, I’ll return it to you.
Silvia glanced at the wine on the table. “You promise?”
“I promise.”
“Deal.”
Silvia picked up the wine glasses one by one and promptly downed all three of them. After she set the empty glasses down, she turned to Reid and said, “Give it back now.”
Reid smiled and returned the phone.
“Thank you.”
Silvia left the private room, but it was clear to everyone that she would be spending the night with Reid.
He wore a smug smile as he watched her leave. He said to the person beside him, “Get two guys to tail her and bring her straight to my room.”
Shortly after, Silvia sensed that something was wrong. An indescribable heat was building up inside her b*dy, and this made it nearly impossible for her to stand.
She leaned against the wall and tried to leave as quickly as possible.
However, before she could do so, a voice called out from behind her, “There she is! Get her!”
