Chapter 75

• Liam's envy had taken a hold of him, and his mind raced with twisted thoughts and devious plans. He knew that Aiden's fondness for liquor could be his Achilles' heel, and he saw this as an opportunity to exploit. Liam would show Aiden that he was not worthy of Chloe's love and make him look like a fool in front of her. As Liam approached Aiden at the bar, he noticed that he had already been drinking.
• "Ah, Aiden, my friend, it's so good to see you," Liam said, putting on his most charming smile. "Let me buy you a drink."
• Aiden, not one to turn down a free drink, accepted Liam's offer. They chatted and laughed as they drank, but Liam had a hidden agenda. He kept ordering drinks for Aiden, pushing him to drink more and more until Aiden became inebriated.
