Chapter 2146

Bang.

Freya almost lost her grip on the cup she was holding. She quickly stood up. “Jessica…”

Forrest’s expression froze.

Jessica’s dark eyes were in a daze.

Ryan grinned as he said, “I had some things to discuss with Jessica here in the evening, so I came with
her. We all know each other anyway.”

“Jessica, have a seat.”

Freya pulled a chair out for Jessica in a hurry.

However, Ryan pulled Jessica away and sat on that chair himself. He said, “Sis, you can sit on the
other side. This is the spot where the dishes will be served.”

Freya knocked herself on the head. How could she have overlooked that?

“Stop hitting yourself. You’ll become stupid if you keep doing that,” Ryan teased while smiling.

“You’re the stupid one.” Freya glared at him.

Therefore, the seating around the round table changed. Freya and Jessica sat between Ryan and
Forrest.

It seemed like only Ryan and Freya were talking at the table. Freya realized something belatedly too.
Jessica used to be her brother’s girlfriend in university.



Thus… It was so awkward.

However, it was as if Ryan did not notice any problems. He started ordering food and struck a
conversation with Forrest about some topics between men. Then, he even mentioned work and
encouraged Jessica to say a few sentences.

Forrest took the initiative and raised his glass when the wine was served. “President Snow, Ryan, this
is a toast to you two, especially Ryan. Thank you for the help you gave Lynch Corporation.”

Jessica raised her glass with a calm expression and took two sips.



“Forrest, it’s my pleasure. We’re family.” Ryan raised his glass with a grin.

“I’ll drink some with you all too…”

Just as Freya wanted to take her glass, Ryan glared at her. “Don’t. Who’ll drive later if you drink?”

“Okay.” Freya put down her glass resignedly. ” I’ll give you all a ride home later. You guys can drink as
much as you want.”

“Alright. I’m relieved to hear that. Brother, let’s not go home until we get drunk tonight.” Ryan looked at
Forrest enthusiastically.

Ryan kept addressing Forrest as his brother. That made Forrest think he really had an extra brother.

When the food was served, Ryan would have a toast with Forrest from time to time.

“Brother, I hope your career will advance to greater heights.



“Brother, you’re not young anymore either. I hope you can get married and have a child soon. Come,
let’s have another toast.

“Brother, come. Don’t just eat. Let’s toast again.”

Forrest’s intention was to thank Ryan. Seeing that Ryan kept toasting to him, he had no choice but to
return the toast. It was table etiquette.

“….”

Freya was dumbfounded. She watched as the two men kept toasting back and forth in front of her. A
liquor of 50 percent alcohol content was finished very quickly.

Ryan smiled and said, “I’ve never had a good drinking session in so long. Brother, let’s have another
bottle.”

Forrest was speechless.

Could he say no? Seriously, he did not know Ryan was such a good drinker just from looking at him.

Therefore, a new bottle of liquor was served. Ryan got Jessica to join too. After drinking a few glasses,
Jessica’s cool face had an attractive blush under the lighting.

Forrest glanced at her. His eyes turned downcast. He started drinking even without Ryan pouring a
glass for him.
