“Fine.” Cassian walked over, picked up the vodka, and decisively twisted open the cap. “Remember what you just promised
Felipe hadn’t expected Cassian to agree so readily. His expression shifted slightly before he gave a mocking smile. ‘Let’s see if you’d remember to move me call anyone after this.
This was no ordinary drink. Even someone with a high tolerance couldn’t down a full bottle without collapsing
But now Felipe was actually hoping Cassian wouldn’t pass out halfway. That would ruin the fun. He wanted to see him utterly humiliated
“Hurry up! Don’t drag it out!”
“Drink up! Drink up!”
Amid the rowdy chants of the onlookers in the private room, Cassian tilted his head back and poured the fiery liquid down his throat
Under the dim lighting, Cassian’s neck was subtly illuminated. As his Adam’s apple moved with each gulp, the vodka in the bottle steadily decreased.
The air was filled with the pungent grain aroma unique to vodka. One by one, the rowdy voices quieted down.
No one had expected Cassian to drink so fast. Within just a few minutes, the entire bottle was nearly gone.
“You…” Felipe noticed the way the socialites in the room were now eyeing Cassian, with a heat he didn’t like one bit. His expression darkened.
He’d meant to humiliate Cassian, but instead, the guy had accidentally stolen the spotlight.
After downing the final drop of vodka, Cassian slammed the empty bottle onto the table. The glass shattered with a loud crash, shards flying in every
direction.
Screams rang out from a few of the wealthy heiresses nearby, shrill and dramatic.
Reeking of alcohol, Cassian stepped forward, closing the distance between himself and Felipe. He said coldly, “I drank it. Now hold up your end of the
deal.”
“Who the hell do you think you are to make me do anything?” Felipe, forced himself to stay composed, shaking off the shock. His usual smug grin returned. “Cassian, you better remember your place. You’re just a dog the Cherry family keeps around. You don’t get to bargain with me…”
Before he could finish, Cassian had grabbed him by the collar.
“Do you even know what you’re doing, Cassian?” Felipe tried to shove him away, but no matter how hard he pushed, Cassian’s grip remained
unmovable.
Then, Felipe realized that this Cassian was different from the one he used to know.
He thought it was just liquid courage from the vodka. After all, no lowborn would dare to grab him by the collar.
Felipe said, “I’m warning you, let go of me right now pr…”
“Call her.” Cassian locked eyes with Felipe, the deep intensity in his gaze chilling to the bone. A powerful aura radiated from him, oppressive
unmistakable.
“You…” Felipe had always seen Cassian as just a pretty face. Even if he had a temper, he’d only argue back at most. He never had the guts to truly rebel. But now, he felt genuinely rattled. Cassian had completely changed.
“You really don’t want to know how Raven is doing?” Even though Felipe was starting to feel nervous, he remembered he still had leverage. With renewed arrogance, he threatened, “I can call the Inspection Bureau and have her sentenced to death with one phone call…”

Before Felipe could finish, a crushing pain exploded in his throat,
Cassian had shifted his grip from Felipe’s collar to his neck, fingers tightening mercilessly.
