Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 128

"You said that after Edward left, Miss Jones was left behind by a woman to support such a big group. If it weren't for Mr. Ann's help, Miss Jones would have been eaten by those people in the company." Tom flattered calmly.

Elio knocked on the table casually with a decent smile on his face. He didn't react to Tom's words.

Looking at Elio's unmoved expression, he continued, "I think Mr. Ann and Miss Jones are really a good match. Now that Edward is gone, it's not impossible for you and Miss Jones to be together..."

Tom winked at Elio and then giggled.

Looking at Tom's behavior, Elio felt that he was a little annoying and annoying. Sitting at the same table with such a person, Elio had a little appetite.

Tom didn't know what Elio was thinking, so he thought that he had heard it.

"If Mr. Ann can provide us with some help so that our company can successfully take over that piece of land in the east of the city, I don't mind helping Mr. Ann win the heart of a beauty."

"I heard that Miss Jones is very concerned about this case. If she fails, the company will definitely have some opinions and actions against her. If Mr. Ann comes out to save the beauty at this time..."

Although he didn't finish his words, he knew that Elio would understand what he meant.

Elio was a little angry. He was not that kind of person, let alone that he would never betray Irene.

Elio said coldly, "Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Wood, but I don't need anyone else to worry about me. If Mr. Wood continues to say these things, I'm afraid I have to leave."

Tom looked at Elio's indifferent expression and said, "Come on, let's not talk about these things. Mr. Ann, let's drink."

As he spoke, he raised his glass. Elio did not want to embarrass him. After all, they were not at the point of falling out.

He had already warned Tom. If he still didn't know how to appreciate favors, he couldn't blame Elio for not being kind to him.

Watching Elio finish his drink, Tom poured him a cup of wine.

"It's my fault for judging a gentleman with my humble heart. I hope that Mr. Ann won't take it to heart. I'll punish myself with three cups of wine. Mr. Ann can do whatever you want." Tom finished three glasses of wine in one go. Elio was too embarrassed to take a sip.

Elio looked at the bottle of wine on the table. The size of the bottle was not too high. He knew in his heart that there should be no problem if he drank a few more cups. Elio was quite confident in his drinking capacity.

However, he had drunk it before, so he felt that it tasted a little different. Maybe he hadn't drunk it for a long time, or maybe he had had another drink, but Elio didn't take it seriously.

"Mr. Ann, you're such an outstanding man. You're so virtuous. Compared to you, I, Tom, seem to be inferior," Tom said with a laugh.

"Although our company is also interested in that piece of land, we'll compete fairly based on our abilities. I hope that Mr. Ann won't take what he said to heart. Just treat it as if I was drunk and just saying it." Tom pretended to be sincere and seemed to be very embarrassed by what he had just said.

Elio saw that Tom seemed to want to let go of what had happened just now, so he didn't let it go.

Although he had nothing to do with Irene, he was still worried that some petty people would make a fuss about it. If it was spread out, it would damage Irene's reputation. Elio still knew the story of the three of them becoming tigers.

"It's okay. Mr. Wood said those words when he was drunk. How could I take the nonsense of drinking to heart? But Mr. Wood's drinking capacity is really poor. He got drunk at such a young age."

Although Elio said that he didn't care, his words were full of sarcasm. It would be too easy for him to let Tom go so easily.

Tom pretended not to understand, but he still filled Elio's and his cup with wine.

He happily said, "Today, Mr. Ann and I treated each other like old friends. I've offended you a lot before. Fortunately, Mr. Ann is generous and doesn't care about it. Today, we must have a good drink."

Elio didn't say anything. Tom kept persuading him to drink, but he didn't say anything.

After drinking a few cups of wine, Elio felt a little dizzy. He thought that he was really drunk.

"It's getting late, Mr. Wood. I have to go back." Elio got up and said goodbye.

How could Tom let him go so easily? "Mr. Ann, you've only been drinking for a while and you're leaving. I was planning to get drunk with you before."

"Next time, I may feel a little uncomfortable today." He didn't drink much, and the alcohol was not very high. Why did he feel like he was drunk?

Elio didn't know that Tom had specially prepared this wine for him.

Tom knew that Elio was a smart man and was on high alert. He wouldn't drink too much at the table to avoid any trouble.

He had already sent someone to change the wine. The shell outside was still the same shell, but the wine inside had been poured out and was replaced with a very high-quality strong liquor. Moreover, this wine was very strong. No matter how good a person was, he would be drunk after a few glasses.
