Chapter 142 Just One Last Step

The waitstaff started serving the food. Each of them looked amazing.

Everything had already been prepared because the three of them had arrived really early..

“Ms. Stewart, we’ve picked these dishes earlier on. Feel free to order more if there’s anything else you’d like to eat,” Nicholas said.

“There’s no need to.” Seeing Nicholas had made Willow lose her appetite.

“Ms. Stewart, we have a lot of aged wine in our hotel. Feel free to order anything you’d like. It’ll be on the house.”

Nicholas said this on purpose so that they could move on to the next step.

“What do you think you’re doing, Nicholas? She must’ve driven here, so no alcohol for her. Soft drink would be fine.”

Alicia stood up immediately and pretended to rebuke Nicholas. This was all part of the plan.

Alicia’s words successfully dispelled Willow’s worries.

“I’ll have a soft drink, then,” Willow said as she nodded.

Even if she could drink alcohol today, she wouldn’t. Without Caspian present, she couldn’t let her guard down.

But little did she know that Nicholas had already spiked her drink.

The three of them had a glass of wine each.

“Let’s make a toast. Here’s to putting the past behind us.” Alicia stood up and raised her glass.

Willow politely stood up and touched the rim of her glass with everyone at the table.

She only took a small sip as a symbolic gesture.

Alicia and Richard exchanged glances when they saw Willow sip on her drink.

Their plan was working!

Willow was now their sacrificial offering!
