Chapter 1114

Xyla’s expression froze slightly. Yorrick laughed. “Are you giving me another chance?”

Xyla glared at him.

‘Okay, that’s unfortunate!’

“Have you come up with an idea on how you’re going to down that bottle of bourbon?” Yorrick walked to her side

and easily pocketed the winning ball before Xyla could even react.

He turned and looked at Xyla. Xyla put down the cue, turned around walked up to the bottle of bourbon, and

opened the bottle. Louis interrupted the series of actions at this time. “It doesn’t look like your style to make things

this difficult for a woman, Mr. Hathaway.”

The people surrounding the table could not help but look forward to what would follow that!

Yorrick kept a straight face and only gave off a faint smile. “She’s the one who insisted on betting with me. I’m only

acting according to what we agreed upon. Am I really embarrassing her?”

Louis met his gaze. “I can’t see what you intend to achieve through this wager.”

Yorrick replied calmly, “I don’t plan to achieve anything through this game.”

Helios walked out of the crowd at this time. “Yorrick, let’s just forget about downing a whole bottle of bourbon and

replace it with a can of beer.”

Yorrick chuckled. “What will the public think of me if I accommodate that this time?”

Xyla turned to look at them. “You guys don’t need to defend me. It’s just a bottle of bourbon. I’d take them heads-

up even if the wager was to finish two of them.”

She sealed the mouth of the bottle with her lips, raised her head, and started chugging the bourbon. She could

drink red wine without any issue, but the bourbon was too strong for her.

Some of the liquor escaped her mouth through the corners of her lips, streamed down her cheek and neck, and

soaked her clothes.

Xyla’s stomach began to feel uncomfortable halfway through the bottle. She began to choke and cough, but she

adjusted her pace and moved on with the chug. When the bottle of bourbon was finished to the very last drop, Xyla

was already on the verge of not being able to keep herself upright, and her stomach felt so irritated as if it was on

fire. Thus, she covered her mouth, fought her way through the crowd, and sprinted out.

Xyla ran to the bathroom to vomit. Her body felt extremely warm, and she felt very light-headed. She vomited

uncomfortably as teardrops rolled down her cheeks one after another, messing up her makeup.

She lifted her head and looked at her embarrassing self in the mirror. Her cheeks looked as red as a tomato, and

her vision began to get blunder as the seconds went by.

Xyla walked out of the bathroom with the support of anything that she could find on her way out but before she

could take a few steps forward, she had already lost consciousness and fallen to the toilet floor.

The two ladies who came in after that screamed in fright.

Ryleigh rushed to the hospital.

Louis and Helios were already waiting in the ward, while Xyla was in a coma, undergoing an intravenous infusion.

“Xyla, she…” Helios explained, “It’s alcohol poisoning. Her drinking capacity has never been particularly good. We

might not even be able to finish a whole bottle of bourbon on an empty stomach, let alone her. She’s gotten a

gastric lavage too.”

Ryleigh was stunned. “Why would she finish a whole bottle of bourbon in the first place?”

Louis frowned. “We don’t know, but Xyla seems to have offended Yorrick, and Yorrick did so to embarrass her on

purpose.”

Helios looked at him. “It might have something to do with you.”

“Why does it have something to do with me?” Louis was startled.



‘Xyla and I are just ordinary friends now, and we haven’t been contacting each other for a long time. And let’s not

forget that I’m already a married man.”

“It’s just my intuition.” Helios shrugged and then inserted his hands in his pockets. “I’ll go back to take care of my

wife first.”

Louis looked at Ryleigh. “Let’s go out for now and let her rest.”

Ryleigh took a glance at the unconscious Xyla and nodded.

She stood next to Louis in the corridor and stared at Louis. “Is Yorrick making things hard for Xyla because of you?”

Louis was dumbfounded and shook his head. “I don’t know. I don’t even know what their relationship is at the

moment.” Ryleigh wondered, “They’re dating each other just like what the rumors say, don’t they?”

“Yorrick is not jealous of Louis, right? Louis stroked the ends of her hair. “Yorrick has never taken any of the women

he’s been with seriously, so there’s no reason for him to turn Xyla’s life into a living h*ll because of my past

relationship with her.”

Ryleigh lowered her gaze. “Xyla is so

pitiful.”
