Mysterious Little Wife

Sam's action was too abrupt. 

A silence fell over everyone as a result. 

"Cough, Mr. Garrison, that's Lillianna's younger sister, Lacey, not Lillianna—" Evie couldn't help but whisper, reminding him not to mistake Lillianna for someone else. 

Sam froze. He stared into Lacey's hazy eyes, then loosened his grip on her wrist. 

"Well, Lacey was clearly not a drinker when she showed up for my engagement ceremony. Sam stopped her from drinking anymore because he was worried about her health. Besides, she'd just suffered from motion sickness." Lillianna tried to explain. 

Still, she scowled and tried to read Sam's expression. 

What had just happened to him? 

Lacey's balance was broken by his sudden release, and she almost fell over. Luckily, Theo was quick to hold her.

"No, it's fine. I'm still able to drink." Lacey waved her hand, then hiccupped. She frowned, for her stomach didn't feel good. 

"Let's call it a day." Theo was displeased. "Why did she get picked three times in a row? It's no different than cheating."

"You can't say that, Mr. Henderson. She could have refused to play if she didn't want to! The way you're defending her makes it look like we're bullying her!" Heidi Martin, a fledgling female superstar, sneered.

"That's right! Mr. Henderson, you can't be so biased!" Evie chimed in. She then looked at Lacey and said, "It appears you can't drink anymore, so why not answer some questions!"

Lacey rubbed between her brows. She grinned as she looked at Evie, saying, "I don't think I can drink anymore. Ask away—" 

She collapsed into a seat immediately after.

Evie got excited and jumped up. "Don't mind if I do! Who did you give your virginity to?"

The crowd was taken aback by the question. 

Sam turned to Lacey unconsciously. 

At this point, his dark eyes seemed bottomless. 

Why had he grabbed her and stopped her from drinking? 

Was it because her drunken appearance reminded him of that night? 

The night she was as obedient as a kitten.

D*mn it!

He must be out of his mind!

"What kind of question is that? How can you ask such a personal matter?" Theo frowned. His tone was grim and cold. 

Suddenly, Lacey giggled. She squinted her eyes and looked around the crowd. "My virginity, you ask?" 

"That's right. Rumors are stating that you're open to sex. So, to whom did you give up your virginity? Was it your teacher, a classmate, or a random street beggar?" Evie continued sarcastically. 

"Enough!" Theo was enraged. "Lacey, let's go!" 

He was about to help her up. 

"It hurts—" Lacey frowned. Her face overcame with grief. "It hurts a lot that night."
