Chapter 189

189 Drinking Contest

Women around were mocking Isabella. Anyone at present knew what Doris meant when she mentioned pants. Isabella was not a lady but Doris was way out of line.

Joseph lowered his head and kept drinking after Isabella came in. He was ignoring her.

Isabella didn’t care what they said. She just wanted to explain it to Joseph but when she walked to him, Joseph stood up at once and said, “Gerry, chase Isabella out. She doesn’t even wear shoes at my birthday party so she is not welcomed.”

Gerry was stunned and hesitated, “Mr. Joseph...”

“Do you need me to repeat it?” Joseph said.

Some girls began to laugh and Isabella was also surprised to hear it.

Gerry hesitated and walked over. He lowered his voice, “Miss Isabella...”

Isabella lowered her head and said, “Gerry, I can walk out myself...”

Then she turned around and left...

.....

It was noisy and crowded outside. Isabella knew that she didn’t belong to this place.

She took out the box with the cigarette filter in it. She put it on the table filled with presents after hesitation.

She thought of herself as an idiot.

She wanted to give Joseph the present and told him the advantages of the filter. She also wanted to tell him how hard it was for her to buy it and then he would know how important he was to her.

But things didn’t go as she wished. She turned a surprise into a tragedy.

She thought that it was all her fault.

Isabella sighed.

Someone put his arm on her shoulder and said excitedly, “There you are. Beauty!”

Isabella was stunned and walked away immediately. She said with a smile, “Mr. Zachary, nice to meet you.”

“Yes, very nice,” Zachary said.

Zachary was the well-known playboy in Peace City.

Today he was in a crimson suit with a spotted bow tie. With his raccoon makeup, he looked more beautiful than women. He bent down and said playfully, “Isabella, what present did you prepare for Joseph?”

Then he picked up Isabella’s present and teased, “I like it with devils on the design.”

Isabella shook her head and stepped back to keep her distance from Zachary. She said, “It is normal. I bought him a cigarette filter.”

“Filter?” Zachary said in surprise.

“Joseph ... Mr. Joseph likes smoking, right?” Isabella said, “The shop assistant told me that filters are good for health because they can filter some bad materials in the cigarette.”

Isabella hesitated and said proudly, “It is made of jade!”

Jayden laughed.

Jayden was standing behind them and heard what they said. He said, “Miss Isabella doesn’t know Joseph at all. But he will like it as long as it is bought by you.”

Isabella was confused and she asked, “What do you mean? Doesn’t he need this?”

“Joseph only smokes cigars. The smoke of cigars would not enter our lungs so we don’t need filters when we smoke cigars.”

Zachary laughed out and said, “Let alone it is made of jade, even if it is made of crystal, it is useless to Joseph. So funny...”

Isabella flushed and said, “I, I don’t know that.”

Jayden replied, “You mean well but you should try to know more about him.”

He nudged Zachary and said with a smile, “If you were not sure what Joseph likes, you can buy things like a tie, belt, and perfume. These things would not get you wrong.”

Zachary added, “If you were rich, you can buy that. Joseph loves it!” He pointed somewhere as he said so.

Isabella looked in the direction of his finger and saw a sports car, which surprised her.

Zachary said, “It is the latest version called Night Angel of Ferrari. It costs 20,000,000. Although it doesn’t have a powerful engine, it has cool color and a streamlined body.”

Isabella could not accept the price of the car as a present. She said, “Did someone buy Joseph a birthday gift worth 20,000,000?”

“It is acceptable. Even a tie clip will cost dozens of thousand so the car is not that expensive,” Jayden said and then he glanced at Isabella and realized something. He added, “Sorry, I forgot that the revenue of Smith Design is just 10,000,000. So, a car is indeed too expensive for Miss Isabella.”

Isabella finally knew that why Joseph repeated that the guests tonight were people of his kind so she didn’t need to worry.

It turned out that people of his kind would not have anything to do with Carl because Carl can’t even see Joseph.

However, a birthday present was worth tens of millions. Isabella didn’t understand what money meant for them? Was money just paper for them?

People were exclaiming.

While Isabella felt distressed, they heard the cheers so they turned around. Some women were shouting, “I will drink it! Mr. Joseph is mine tonight!”

Zachary laughed and said, “I know what they doing. These crazy women said that since Joseph has no date tonight, he would receive many women’s invitations later. They don’t want to be refused by Joseph so they decide to compete now.”

“How?” Jayden asked.

“Did you see the 100 glasses of wine on the table? The one who can drink the most can invite Joseph to dance. Others who lost the competition could not invite him!” Zachary said.

“Damn it. The wine is strong! They will die if they drink them all!” Jayden shouted.

“So, they are risking their lives to be Joseph’s date tonight!” Zachary replied.

“As long as I drink them all, I can dance with Joseph?” Isabella said. Her eyes lit up.

“What, Isabella? Do you want to... Isabella!” Zachary didn’t know what to say.

Isabella rushed to the table with glasses and asked the host, “The winner can invite Joseph to dance and losers can’t invite him, right?”

The host smiled and said, “Yes. People at present can prove it. Who can drink them all then who is the winner! Joseph will have her as his date tonight!”

Doris snorted and said, “Isabella, I know that you like Mr. Joseph!”

Isabella looked at Doris and said, “Your boyfriend is right here but you are competing for another man. What are you doing?”

“It is none of your business,” Doris said.

“You should not mind my business. It is a fair competition!” Isabella said.

Doris laughed.

She raised her eyebrows and said, “The wine is strong. If you get drunk later, you will be embarrassed when no one takes care of you.”
