Chapter 70
Chapter 70
As soon as the director spoke, the screenwriter, producer, and the rest of the crew raised their hands in
agreement.
“That’s right. All of us came out to have fun. We have to drink!”
“Josh, Alice, you’re not showing us any respect if you don’t drink!”
Alice originally planned to refuse the drink, but she could not let Josh drink in her place now that the
rest of the crew were urging her to drink.
Hence, Alice gave Josh a look that said, “Don’t worry about me.” Then, she took the glass of wine and
clinked it with the glass in the hand of another actress. She raised her head and drank the wine in one
gulp.
“Director, look, Alice is really good at drinking! You should have a drink with Alice too.” Seeing that
Alice had fallen into her trap, Maisie urged the director to drink with Alice.
How could the director understand the scheme of the women? He smiled and got up. He sta ggered
toward Alice and picked up a bottle of red wine. “Come, Alice. Let’s have a drink too.”
With that, he filled Alice’s glass.
Alice looked at the full glass of red wine and could not help but frown.
“Alice, drink it all if you love us! You have to show me some respect!” The director said as he blew on
the bottle of red wine.
This director was a married alcoholic. He drank very freely when his wife wasn’t around to rein him in.
Alice looked at him and knew that everyone would criticize her if she did not finish the wine. She could
only brace herself and drink the glass of wine that the director poured.
After that, everyone moved to the KTV.
The drunk director was exceptionally bold. He pulled the men from the production team to play singing
games. They had to drink if they couldn’t remember the next line of lyrics.
It was not a problem for the more popular songs. However, when the director chose an older song later
on, Josh and the other young artists all lost and had to drink one glass of wine after the other.
In the end, Josh also collapsed on the sofa, drunk.
Alice had sent a message to Josh’s assistant when she was still sober. Then, she sta ggered out of the
room and called her children, telling them not to leave the door open and wait for her.
However, for some reason, she dialed Daniel’s number.
She instinctively wanted to hang up when the other party picked up the call. She said, “I’m sorry, I
called the wrong number.”
The girl’s voice sounded a little lazy, different from usual.
Daniel immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly said, “Alice, don’t hang up yet.
Where are you?”
“I-I’m at the KTV,” Alice replied. She felt that she was useless. She did not want to hang up when she
heard Daniel’s magnetic voice.
“So… you drank?” Daniel asked with a frown.
Alice nodded and said, “Daniel, explain to the children that I’m going back late. Tell them not to wait for
me.”
“Alright.” After saying that, Daniel glanced at the cake and flowers in the passenger seat. He seemed to
have thought of something and suddenly said, “Give me your location. I’ll pick you up.”
“No need.” Alice shook her head. She leaned her back against the wall and pouted. “I haven’t forgiven
you yet. You don’t have to pick me up.”
Daniel’s expression darkened. Then, his grandmother’s words rang out in his mind.
It turned out that Alice was really angry.
However, before he could say anything, there was a problem on Alice’s side.
Suddenly, two men walked over and covered Alice’s mouth with a wet towel.
Alice instinctively kicked the two of them a few times, and the wet towel in the other party’s hand fell to
the ground.
“Who are you? What do you want?”

The two men’s expressions darkened. Without answering, they rushed forward and grabbed Alice’s
shoulders.
When the man on the other end of the phone heard that something was wrong with Alice, he quickly
asked in a low voice, “Alice, are you alright? Alice—” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
The two men saw that her phone was still connected and forcefully pried the phone out of her hand and
kicked it to the
corner.
Then, Daniel heard a beeping sound.
This time, Daniel’s expression completely changed. He immediately called Dax. “Find Alice’s location
immediately!”
