Chapter 322 No Pushover “Please watch your mouth!” Aleena let loose a loud guffaw before pointing at her accusingly. “You’re so
cunning! Did you trick me into drinking that glass of drugged drink just now?!” With a frown on her
forehead, Camila stared back at her indifferently. Since Aleena had set the trap for her in the first place,
why couldn’t she use the same trap back on her? She could never compare to her in terms of slyness.
How could Aleena even have the face to accuse her of being cunning when she was the one who
drugged her drink in the first place? She must be crazy! With her current condition, shouldn’t she put a
stop to the scene so that she could leave and get a man to settle her needs? Wearing a dark
expression, Silas walked over to her and asked, “What happened?” The moment Aleena saw him,
tears immediately trickled down her face because she felt so aggrieved and terrified. “Silas, Camila set
a trap to sabotage me!” Camila curled the corners of her lips into a faint smile that came with a trace of
disdain. However, she sounded innocent when she spoke, “Miss Jones, I really don’t understand what
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou’re talking about.” Aleena totally lost it due to the raging fury inside her. Pointing at Camila, she
chastised, “Why are you acting all innocent after doing something like that? You knew your glass of
wine was drugged long before you drank it. You deliberately broke the plate so that you could make
use of the time to swap the drugged drink with mine. Otherwise, how can you stand on such a stable
footing?” Camila found her statement rather hilarious. “Miss Jones, which glass of wine are you
referring to? Do you mean the one you passed it to me yourself?” Aleena looked dumbfounded
because in her fit of rage just now, she had forgotten about the fact that she was the one who passed
the glass of wine to Camila. “It’s you who deliberately offered me the glass of drugged drink!” Keeping
her arms crossed in front of her chest, Camila examined her as though she was a clown who was
struggling to break free from a hopeless situation. “Since you insist on saying so, I have no choice but
to ask Mr. Nolan to check the CCTV footage to have my innocence proved.” Silas, who was starting to
understand the situation, eyed Camila disbelievingly and asked, “Did she drug your drink?”
Just as Camila was about to answer him, Nicole dashed over to them out of the blue and wrapped her
arms around Aleena, who appeared disoriented. “Aleena! Aleena, you’re wasted, aren’t you?”
Burying her head in Nicole’s arms, Aleena complained, “Camila sabotaged me!” Nicole quickly
supported her weight before she said, “Silas, you guys should walk Doctor Brooklyn out while I bring
Aleena away! She’s so drunk!” With that, she frantically hauled and dragged Aleena away. In the
meantime, Silas’s face fell. “Wait a minute!”
Nicole, who had no choice but to stop moving, pleaded with him, “Silas, she needs to lie down!”
At that moment, both Alex and Hayden already realized what the matter was all about because they
had been there at the table when it happened. However, they decided it was not the right time for them
to voice their thoughts. Also, it would bring disgrace to the Nolan Family if they allowed Aleena to
continue making a scene looking so unkempt outside the villa.
Therefore, the two of them advised Silas, “Forget it, you still have plenty of time to get to the bottom of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis after tonight. What’s more, she won’t be able to tell you anything now even if you insist on making
her stay.” “Just let her go. If she continues making a scene here, it’s your family who will suffer the
embarrassment instead of me,” Camila opined. At last, Silas stopped voicing his objection and allowed
Nicole to bring Aleena away. A babble of voices soon broke out among the guests. “What’s this whole
thing about? Why can’t I understand a thing of what they said?” “Seems like Aleena is behaving this
way because Camila drugged her drink!” “What nonsense are you talking about? Both of you have
gotten it wrong! It was Aleena who wanted to drug Doctor Brooklyn but in the end, she ended up taking
the glass that contained the drugged drink by accident.” “In my opinion, Doctor Brooklyn must have
found out that her drink was drugged and that was why she decided to swap it with Aleena’s!” Their
voices were loud enough to be heard by Silas and he secretly agreed with the opinion offered by the
last guy because he knew his girlfriend was no pushover who would suffer silently when she was
bullied. Seeing that the matter had been solved, Camila did not intend to stay on. “Mr. Nolan, we shall
get going then.” Despite feeling apologetic and reluctant to see her leave as well as having the urge to
tell her everything in his mind, Silas managed to subdue all those emotions and said to her politely,
“Don’t worry, I’ll give you an explanation for what happened tonight.”
