The Wrong Woman
Chapter 299

Chapter 299

Socializing was Mila's greatest fear. There were about ten people at the large table in the private room. She didn't know anyone except Cameron and Fenna.

All of them were of a similar age to Nathan and looked dignified and imposing. Mila felt nervous and wanted to leave.

Nathan whispered from behind her, "Go ahead."

Mila slowly entered the room.

"Meet my friend, Wanda," Nathan said calmly after the door had closed.

Mila glanced at Nathan with astonishment before giving everyone an awkward smile and a

nod.

"Wanda, these are my comrades and friends," Nathan said gently.

"Hi everyone," Mila greeted.

"I've never seen Nate with a woman before-"

Fenna interrupted in displeasure, "Am I not a woman?"

Laughter rippled through the room as they continued to tease Fenna.

Nathan led Mila to sit next to him and placed a set of utensils in front of her. He leaned in and whispered, "They're all on our side. Just relax"

Mila nodded meekly. After setting her phone down on the table, she looked around at

everyone.

Judging by their clothing and demeanor, they were no ordinary people. Those who could address Nathan as Nate were either influential, close friends with Nathan, or both. Cameron came over and poured some wine for Mila. "Shall I call you Suzanne or Wanda?"

"Either one's fine." Mila smiled.

After Cameron filled her glass, he pointed to Nathan's wine and said, "Don't be like him. No matter how much we tru

to convince him, he never drinks at gatherings. Such a buzzkill."

"Cam, there's no such rule about drinking at a gathering, is there? Nate's just showing self-restraint," Fenna chimed in with displeasure.

"Boring." Cameron snorted. Others joined in and teased Nathan for being a party pooper.

Cameron poured himself one. "Wanda, nice to meet you. I'll toast you here."

Mila immediately reached for a glass of water. Cameron acted fast and replaced it with wine. " Drink up."

He clinked her glass and downed the wine in one go.

Mila couldn't refuse. Having watched Cameron finish his wine, she rose nervously and said, Cameron, I don't drink." "Who doesn't drink nowadays?" Cameron laughed.

One of them chimed in, "Cameron has taken the lead. You should drink a little, too."

"You can have just a sip. Don't kill the mood."

"Wanda, drink to Cameron. Just take a small sip."

Mila was under pressure. She furrowed her brow, took a deep breath, and was about to swallow the wine down.

Just as the glass touched her lips, someone snatched it away.

Glancing up, Mila saw that Nathan had calmly grabbed the glass from her and downed it without hesitating.
