Chapter 119 - Drink with me! (2/2)
”I am not crying! These are happy tears… HAPPY tears!” Lena sniffled and wiped her happy tears. ”Hazel always drink more than me so she steals all the alcohol and Gary can never buy expensive wine. This is the first time someone has treated me so well for alcohol.”
Kris' heart smiled but his face was still the same. He placed the bottle on the table and drank his entire glass of wine. ”You can have all of it. It's not mine anyway, it is Tye's.” Kris could tell that the alcohol was getting to her.
”I can't have all of it. It's not good.” Lena spoke but she poured her glass to the fullest.
”It's fine. As long as you don't throw up. James or Keso can carry you back to your room. And there are nurses here if you start choking on your puke.”
”Ok.” Lena quickly drank down all the wine in her glass. She poured herself another glass and raised it. ”Drink with me!”
Kris sat down next to her and poured himself another glass. He took a sip and placed his glass on the table. It looked like he was a person who drank a lot but he knows that drinking does not help him with his problem. He lay back on the sofa and stared at Lena as she played with her glass of wine and hummed.
Lena knew that she was not drunk yet. She could probably go for a few more bottles before she is fully drunk. ”Are you going to fire her?” Lena questioned Kris.
Her. Lena was referring to Jane. ”No.” Kris replied.
Lena looked at Kris wide-eyed. ”But didn't you almost killed me for doing the same thing?!”
”Hers was an accident. Yours was not.”
”The bite was self-defense.”
”Not the kiss though.”
Lena gasped. How can he bring up such an embarrassing memory?! ”That was a gift!”
Kris took another sip from his glass of wine and gave Lena a sarcastic ”Mhmm…”
Lena finished her glass and poured another. But before drinking that she lay back on the soft sofa. ”You know... that was one of the best days of my life.”
The kiss?! That was Kris' first reaction to Lena's comment, but she continued.
”When Andy pushed me down... everyone stared at me like some type of useless trash. And when I stood up from the dirty floor, I was a new person. I realized how much of idiot I must have been, chasing a man who could not even see me. Everyone was expecting me to fall down again and cry.”
Lena drank and smiled. ”But, you were the only one in the crowd who did not give me that nasty look. It looked like you were telling me to slap that son of b***h. In all honesty, I probably only got the guts to do it because of you.. hahaha...” Lena laughed. ”So thanks! It was good to slap someone like him.”
