Adam thought for a while and realized he should not rush things.

If he offended Emmeline, she might leave in a huff despite Lizbeth's requests to stay.

The best way was still to make her drunk and get her to sign off the approval.

If Adam could get her signature, the finance department would not be able to refuse his request.

A grin appeared on his face as he thought of that.

"Liz is right. We rarely get to sit together for a meal. Let's not ruin the mood by talking about business. Why don't

we eat and drink to our fill first?"

Adrien was also in on the plan. He lifted his glass and said, "A toast to your recovery, Emma. Bottoms up!"

"That is indeed worth celebrating. I was so worried when you couldn't see. Bottoms up!" Adam said.

"Cheers, Emma!" Lizbeth said.

Emma smiled. She could tell that she was walking into a trap.

I know I can't drink, but that doesn't mean I'm helpless!

"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom," Emmeline said while slipping a toothpick between her fingers. "I'll drink

when I come back."

"That's more like it!" Adam gestured a thumbs-up at her.

Emmeline stood up and went to the bathroom outside of the private room.

In the meantime, Adrien leaned close to Adam and whispered, "Adam, you'd better not make her pass out. I'll be

the first to protest."

"I won't let you do that too," Lizbeth said with a frown. "Just a couple of drinks will be enough!"

"Are you both idiots?" Adam said in a low voice. "If we acquire the Imperial Palace, we'll be set for life! I'm not going

to fail at this step!"

"Are you sure you've thought through this? The Imperial Palace will require a big startup capital, and it'll be a hassle

to operate," Adrien said.

"Just leave it to me. All you have to do is sit back and wait to collect dividends!" Adam said confidently.

Adrien and Lizbeth exchanged glances and did not say anything.

After Emmeline went into the bathroom, she poked her stomach at several spots with the toothpick.

Then, she washed her hands and left the bathroom.

After returning to the room, she lifted her glass and said, "Thank you for your hospitality today. Bottoms up!"

She placed the glass next to her mouth and emptied its contents in one gulp.

Adrien and Adam were shocked. They did not expect Emmeline to drink so quickly.

They drank from their glasses as well, followed by Lizbeth, who did the same.

Emmeline remained composed. Her face was not flushed at all.

That had never happened before.

"Let's eat!"

Emmeline picked up a lobster and ignored the trout that Adam handed to her.

After that, Emmeline filled everyone's glasses and toasted them.

The brothers were discreetly surprised, but they drank anyway. Lizbeth also did the same.

Emmeline poured everyone a third glass of wine and wished everyone good fortune.

She gulped down the glass of wine again and grimaced, as though showing that the wine was pretty strong.

Adam and Adrien gawked at each other. They could not believe it.

They finished their third glass of wine, but Lizbeth only managed to drink half.

Soon, they finished the two bottles of wine.

Emmeline excused herself to the bathroom and threw everything up.

Earlier, she had suppressed her digestive system with the toothpick. The food and alcohol were not digested, and

she had to throw up to empty her stomach.

The two brothers were feeling the full effects of the alcohol. Their heads were spinning, and their faces were

flushed.

"Looks like everyone enjoyed themselves in this meal. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving," Emmeline said as she

picked up her handbag.

"Wait!" Adam exclaimed. "You haven't signed my proposal yet! You can't leave!"
