After the meal.
Everyone had gradually returned to their rooms.
However, Freya Torres and Julia Stewart and the other women stayed behind.
Freya Torres said to Lionel Yeager, "Mullen, you take Fifth Sister back to her room."
Julia Stewart also added, "Mrs. Stern drank too much, you must take good care of her tonight."
"What are you waiting for, hurry up and take Mrs. Stern back to her room!"
"If you don’t take good care of her, you’ll be held accountable!"
Nancy Maddox and the other women also voiced out, urging Lionel Yeager to take Gina Stern back to her room.
"Ah?!"
Lionel Yeager was suddenly stunned and asked incredulously, "Why should I take her? Can’t any of you do it?"
Olena Sean glared at Lionel Yeager, saying, "Just do it if you’re told to, why all the fuss!"
"Alright, Fifth Sister is all yours now. We’re leaving!"
Freya Torres glanced at Lionel Yeager and Gina Stern, who was sprawled on the table shouting to continue drinking, then left with the other women.
Watching the women leave, Lionel Yeager rubbed his chin, feeling something was off.
Why did Second Senior Sister and the others insist on him taking Fifth Senior Sister back to the room?
They could clearly do it themselves.
Moreover, if Fifth Senior Sister used her cultivation, she could surely dispel the alcohol in her system, maintaining her sobriety.
There was definitely something fishy.
While Lionel Yeager was pondering this.
Gina Stern slightly raised her head, her little face flushed, her eyes blurry, and slurred, "Mullen...drink...keep drinking with Senior Sister..."
Lionel Yeager shook his head helplessly and said, "Fifth Senior Sister, you’re drunk. Stop drinking, come on, I’ll take you back to your room."
Saying that, Lionel Yeager picked up Gina Stern and left the restaurant, heading upstairs.
Along the way, her head buried in Lionel Yeager’s chest, she kept shouting "Drink."
Lionel Yeager said amusedly, "Fifth Senior Sister, are you troubled by something? Why do you want to get drunk?"
Gina Stern didn’t reply to Lionel Yeager, just kept mumbling, unintelligible.
After reaching a room on the fifth floor, Lionel Yeager opened the door and walked in.
This room was specially prepared for Gina Stern; she always stayed here whenever she visited.
After turning on the light, Lionel Yeager kicked the door shut, then carried Gina Stern to the bed.
But just as Lionel Yeager was about to set her down on the bed and stand up.
Suddenly!
Gina Stern stretched out her arms and wrapped them around Lionel Yeager’s neck.
Moreover, her previously blurry eyes instantly gleamed with slyness.
"Fifth Senior Sister, you...you’re not drunk?!"
Lionel Yeager’s eyes bulged in surprise.
Gina Stern giggled, saying, "Please, I’m a cultivator, an Earth Immortal, how could I get drunk so easily?
My acting skills are good, right? You big dummy, you’ve been fooled again!"
Lionel Yeager laughed and cried, "Yes, Fifth Senior Sister, you’re a big star, a true queen of acting.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been deceived by you for so long, not knowing that you are the famed Empress of Destiny from the Dark World."
Gina Stern puffed her cheeks, saying, "Oh, I was wrong about that. I should have told you guys earlier."
"There’s nothing wrong with it, it’s just that everyone was scared and shocked."
Lionel Yeager shook his head, then asked, "But, Fifth Senior Sister, why did you conspire with Second Senior Sister and the others to pretend to be drunk? What are you up to?"
Gina Stern raised an eyebrow and countered, "What do you think?"
"I have no idea."
Lionel Yeager shook his head.
I want to give myself to you before the war starts, without any regrets."
