Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1111 Extra Story (Part Nine)

She kept at it for a time until she chased after her own breath.

When she gave the gift to Adonis, she had put her handbag on the table. In her fury, she had forgotten to take it, leaving even her phone behind.

It’d be better to just wait and see if Adonis notices that I’m missing, ‘ she thought in defeat.

At the banquet.

“Sir, Miss Su asked for you to wait upstairs. She will come to you later. In the meantime, would you like me to open that bottle for you?”

a servant came over and said to Adonis.

At his words, Adonis turned his head around and wondered why she was nowhere to be found. Perhaps she was still occupied with something else.

“Alright. I’ll be upstairs. Bring it up,” he said.

Adonis went to the third floor.

After some time, there was still no sign of Selina.

“Adonis, you’re here too,” Shana called out to him. “Where is Selina? She had someone tell me to come here, so why isn’t she here?”

She looked around, confusion written on her face.

Adonis was equally puzzled. He knew that Selina did not let just anyone drink her wine.

“I don’t know either. Come and sit down first. Maybe she’ll come later,” he answered.

“Alright.”

Shana walked towards the sofa with a smile. “This wine has a wonderful bouquet. I saw Selina give you two bottles of wine. Is that one of those?”

Adonis glanced toward the bottle beside him and nodded.

The two waited for a while, but still Selina didn’t come.

“Just drink it if you want. You don’t have to wait for her,” Adonis said, offering the wine to Shana.

He peered at his watch. Twenty minutes had already passed, but Selina hadn’t arrived.

Shana thanked him and took a slow sip of the wine, savoring its taste. With a satisfied smile, she said, “It’s really good. The flavor is rich, but not overwhelming. Adonis, you should also have some.”

Adonis had been reading a book as they waited. He reached for his glass and took a sip. As expected, it was indeed good. He had already tried Steven’s wine before, so he knew he wouldn’t be disappointed.

Shana kept on drinking quietly. After her second glass, a dizzy, nauseating sensation crept up to her head. She was breathing in deep gulps of air as her consciousness started to succumb to the alcohol.

“Adonis… This…The wine is

oof. She gazed bitterly at the bottle and took long swigs. It was strong, but it was her only company now, so she would drink it to the last drop.

No one else would come to this place. Guests weren’t allowed to go up without permission.

Selina drank more than half of the bottle in one go and wiped her tears harshly with the back of her hand. The tartness matched her own. She turned her head upwards, looking up at the dark sky.

She couldn’t stop the onslaught of the images from the scene she had witnessed. Her heart clenched as she remembered their heated gaze.

‘So he likes girls like her, ‘ she thought to herself. ‘No wonder he said that I overestimated my place in his heart.

I’m no one. I’m just an orphan who was abandoned by my parents. Who could ever like me in this world?’ she thought bitterly.

“You’ve drunk too much.”

Adonis’ voice came from behind. His eyes went to the bottle that was almost empty.

“So what? It’s none of your business!”

Selina glared at him and asked, “What? Are you two done already? Why don’t you stay with her a little longer downstairs and enjoy the afterglow? Or did you leave her hanging just like that? You bastard. First, you were with her, and now you’re with me?”

As she spoke, she drank the last of the wine and slammed the bottle to the floor.

It was already too late for Adonis to stop her.

He had left instructions for a servant to take Shana to one of the guestrooms to rest.

“That wine is drugged. I tried to stop you from taking it, but you didn’t listen to me,” Adonis said.

What now?
