“I’ll teach you.”
Kendrick took Samantha’s hand, and looked into her anxious eyes.
He was in a strangely good mood.
The ball floor was crowded. Every young man and his lady were dancing elegantly..
Only Samantha was wearing sky–high heels and stepping aggressively on
Kendrick’s feet.
“Sorry…”
Samantha could no longer keep count of the times she’d apologized.
Kendrick was a stickler for cleanliness regardless of where he was. Ultimately, his
patience was not enough to last them the entire dance.
Kendrick led her off the dance floor and released Samantha’s hand, looking
annoyed. He then walked toward a waiter nearby.
Samantha took a flute of champagne from a tray and smiled faintly as she held it in
her hand.
“So that’s all that you can endure.
“If that’s your plan, then I’m very disappointed.”
A familiar voice suddenly rang out from behind her.
Samantha instinctively gripped the glass in her hand tightly and turned around.
Conrad looked just as dashing as always. He stood behind Samantha, holding a glass
of red wine in his hand. He looked every inch a smooth gentleman.
“Mr. Hayes, don’t forget our goal today.”
Samantha smiled and raised her glass, clinking it against his.
Conrad nodded and walked into the crowd, smiling.

He caught Linda before she could spot Kendrick.
Samantha downed the champagne in one gulp and took another glass from a waiter.
She drank it slowly, her eyes resolute. If she was going to pretend, then she would
be as realistic as possible.
When Kendrick had changed into another pair of shoes and returned to the venue,
Samantha was already flushed. She was surrounded by a bunch of rich young men.
She was smiling happily as she raised a glass of red wine. She already looked rather
tipsy.
Based on past experiences, Kendrick already knew that Samantha didn’t have a high alcohol tolerance. He quickened his pace.
The men realized that she was spoken for. Moreover, it was Kendrick. They all left.
“Why did you start drinking?” Kendrick grabbed Samantha’s hand and said in a low
voice.
Samantha didn’t know if she was drunk yet. The hand holding the red wine waved
about. She covered her mouth and smiled.
“They told me to drink, so I drank. It’s fun.”
When he heard this, Kendrick immediately took the glass from Samantha and pulled
her into his arms. He lowered his voice.
“You drank because they told you to drink?”
Samantha could feel distant memories invading her mind as the familiar voice
echoed beside her ear.
Kendrick had once been like that at the cocktail party. She had been drunk and he
had pulled her into his arms, looking coldly at the men who had harbored bad
intentions toward her.
His warm chest and cold expression were engraved deeply in her mind.
That was the first time she had seen Kendrick, and he had behaved exactly the same
as he was right now.

Samantha couldn’t really tell what was real, but she realized that she probably really
was drunk. She pushed Kendrick away weakly.
“Mr. Ford, we… we can’t do this.”
She had fumbled for so long before saying something so immature. Kendrick
thought that the woman in his arms was endearing. Her skin looked rosy. It was perhaps because of the red wine. Her eyes were misting over, and she looked
increasingly enticing.
Kendrick had always been a man who left a trail of lovers in his wake.
He enveloped Samantha in his arms, and she stumbled a few steps. Her hands.
pressed against the table behind her. She could vaguely feel a warmth on her l*ps. It
took a long time for her to regain her senses.
Kendrick let go of her very quickly. He smiled when he noticed Samantha still looking dazed.
Nearby, Conrad swirled the wine glass and shook his head.
“Ms. Snider, it seems that Mr. Ford is very interested in that secretary.”
Linda was standing beside Conrad. She was about to crush the wine glass in her
hand.
She had seen Kendrick’s actions clearly.
Linda thought that Samantha was a scheming b*tch.
Linda couldn’t help insulting her inwardly. There was an aggressive light in her
eyes.
“I was here to poach her, but it seems like it’s impossible.”
Conrad continued adding oil to the fire.
However, Linda’s eyes lit up slightly and she looked at Conrad.
“Are you interested in Sophia too, Mr. Hayes?”
Conrad laughed without denying it. He then spread his hands resignedly.

“It’s a pity that it’s impossible now.”
“Kenny’s just playing around. Don’t give up. Mr. Hayes.”
Linda had quickly formulated a little plan in her heart.
“You’re the person who’s with Mr. Ford. I won’t believe you.”
Conrad smiled and was about to leave, but Linda quickly grabbed him. She smiled.
“Of course you’ll believe me. Stealing Sophia is a piece of cake.”
Conrad still looked disbelievingly, but he was inwardly pleased.
“As long as I work with you, it’s not impossible for you to get Sophia.”
Linda was full of confidence.
Conrad pretended to consider it. He then bent down and listened to Lindal
whispering in his ear about their so–called collaboration.
Kendrick had taken Samantha’s hand and was leading her out of the venue. Still, she caught everything. Her eyes shone.
The fish had taken the bait..
