I noticed an apparent twitch in Raymond's eye. His Adam's apple bobbed, but he was speechless for a long time.

"Well... I won't disturb you two."

With that, Raymond ran upstairs, leaving Yve and I looking at each other in bewilderment.

Our date at the banquet went smoothly. I would toast on behalf of Yve whenever someone came to toast him.

By the end, I felt the whole world spinning.

It was not until Yve's warm hand landed on my waist that I came back to my senses. I straightened up myself and uttered, "Mr. Kelsey."

He was a little unhappy. He took the wine glass from my hand and helped me to the lounge.

In the blinding light, I covered my eyes with my hands in an attempt to ignore the sobering sight.

In a daze, I saw Yve staring at me with a frown. He said, "You are not here to drink for me."

However, all of a sudden, I felt my stomach churning, which was so uncomfortable that I couldn't refrain from vomiting.

I had no idea where I vomited, but I just remembered spitting forward randomly.

I had no memory of what happened after that.

I woke up the next day and found myself lying on white sheets in a strange room.

I immediately lifted the quilt and looked at myself.
