“How is everything going?”
Valery’s eyes glinted with a dark smile.
“I have everything under control.
I have bribed the waiter, and the drug has been put in the wine and juice.

“Don’t you know Hannah is always cautious and may not drink the wine the waiter gives her?” There was a distrustful frown on Den’s face Still smiling mischievously, Valery clinked Den’s ss with hers.
“I’ve got someone watching her cousin, Edwin.

“Edwin will ruin everything if he drinks the wine.

Bryson maintained his stoic expression and spoke with an air of indifference.
“Why did you go through all this trouble to select this venue for the bidding? What’s the point of it?”
“To see if anyone is actually qualified for this job,” Keith replied cryptically, fixing Bryson with a meaningful gaze.
