Chapter 869

"The wine is good." Seeing him downing it in one go, Azalea felt her pounding heart slow down before she uttered

sensibly, "You may continue your discussion now. I'll leave the wine here. Call me if you need anything!"

Hayes hummed, but Eugene's gaze never left her.

When Azalea came out of the inner room, she felt a needle poking her head. A sense of dizziness hit her, and she

then fell to the ground with a plop.

Sirius was busy entertaining other guests at the time, but he had been distracted as he wondered what was going

on in Peony Hall. He had to gain Eugene's trust, even if he didn't proceed with the engagement! Nevertheless, he

still had to be responsible for his daughter's drunken acts. Hence, he had been waiting for news about their

collapse.

When it was almost time, he went to the surveillance room and asked, "How's it going?" The staff quickly kept his

phone and glanced at Peony Hall on the screen. Seeing that everyone was sprawled on the table, he quickly replied,

"Sir Sirius, they have all passed out."

Without much thought, Sirius brought his men to the lounge and saw Olivia and Christoff sprawled on the table, as

well as Azalea, who had fallen to the couch. Thereafter, he went into the inner room to find Eugene and Hayes, who

were both passed out on the table as well.

Delighted, he exclaimed, "The King is drunk. Get a room for him."

The men complied with his orders and carried Hayes away. After that, Sirius ordered his men to move Christoff and

Olivia to one room, while Eugene and Azalea were assigned to another room.

Meanwhile, Olivia allowed the men to move her away. She finally understood Sirius' purpose. He was no doubt

trying to bring Eugene and Azalea together.

Just as she was thinking when a good time to wake up was, she noticed Christoff lying still. With that, she decided to

simply wait it out and observe Sirius' following moves.

The two were assigned to the same room, so once the door was shut, Olivia flung open her eyes and scanned the

room to make sure there was no surveillance camera. Immediately, she rolled out of bed and headed toward the

door.

"Where are you going?" asked Christoff.

"I'm going to look for Eugene's room," answered Olivia.

Christoff got out of bed and grabbed her wrist before asking, "How are you going to find the room? You and I both

know that there is no drug in the wine. Eugene and the King are pretending to be unconscious, just like us. It's

obvious that they already know what Sirius is up to. Why will he comply with Sirius? Just stay here and wait for the

news."

Hearing that, Olivia no longer insisted on leaving and waited in the room anxiously instead. After a while, she spoke

again, "Why hasn't there been any movement outside? Could Sirius have more plans coming? I have to go and take

a look myself." She then got up and was about to leave again.

Christoff held her back again and uttered with a serious expression. "Eugene is not a child. Unless he really wants to

take the opportunity to sleep with Azalea, he won't waver. You will only alert them if you go out now."

Olivia tried hard to persuade herself, but she couldn't calm her heart at all. Was she really just going to sit by and

wait? What if Eugene did end up sleeping with Azalea?

"Can't I even go to the washroom?"

Christoff's grip tightened on her wrist. "You should be unconscious now. Besides, there is a washroom in the room

itself. Which one do you want to go to?"

His strong grip and his words further irritated Olivia, making her struggle to break free from his grasp. "Are you that

eager to see Eugene sleeping with Azalea?"
