Chapter 26
Jeffrey almost couldn’t catch his breath and suffocated in the bar.
He didn’t expect his inconsistency to lead Maggie to think about this aspect.
In an instant, his face turned red and then black, looking extremely exciting,
Roland laughed for a while, put his arm around her shoulder with one hand, and winked, “Why are you still curious about him? Can’t you forget about him?”
Jeffrey’s breathing stopped.
His gaze unconsciously swept towards Maggie’s face.
What are you talking about? The person I am least likely to reconcile with in this world is him, Jeffrey!
Maggie was drunk and incoherent, but she could still spit out harsh words one after another.
He should just grow old alone! Spend his whole life with experimental equipment!
Jeffrey looked deeply at Maggie, then lowered his head, hiding the endless sense of loss and pain in his eyes.
Unconsciously shaking the wine glass in hand.
Because of his outstanding appearance, many women around him were secretly sizing him
- up.
It wasn’t until a woman who was confident enough in her appearance approached him first.
Can I add you on WhatsApp?
The woman ran her fingers through her long hair, delicately exposing her face to the lights of the bar.

Without even looking up, Jeffrey simply said, “No.”
The woman’s face changed slightly, and she wanted to say something else.
Albert quickly laughed and said, “It’s okay, if he doesn’t add me, it’s all the same.”

The woman awkwardly smiled, added Albert on WhatsApp, and then made a quick getaway.
Albert looked at him only to find several empty bottles of red wine on his side, which made his eyes widen in surprise.
Jeffrey, I only looked away for a moment and you’ve already drunk so much alcohol? Do you still want to go to work tomorrow?
His voice was so loud that several nearby tables couldn’t help but look at them.
Maggie and Roland were no exception.
Jeffrey froze for a moment, feeling Maggie’s gaze like a burning flame, landing on him, scorching him.
He took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to look in Maggie’s direction again, but her figure was no longer visible.
It felt as if a hole had instantly rotted in my heart, and many emotions seeped out from the hole.
Jeffrey replied hoarsely, “I’m a bit drunk, I’ll head home first. Are you going to continue, or are you coming with me?”
Albert was busy chatting with another woman. Upon hearing this, he said somewhat regret- fully, “Let’s go, let’s go. If I had known that the bar would be so boring with you here, I would have invited someone else.”
Jeffrey rarely argued with him, just silently followed him as they left.
Looking around the bar, hoping to catch a glimpse of Maggie and Roland somewhere.

Jeffrey couldn’t help but walk up to her, and as she leaned back, she ended up in his arms.

Maggie thought it was Roland, so she closed her eyes in relief and mumbled, “Let’s go back. Jeffrey is also at the bar. We need to escape quickly, or he will catch us.”
Jeffrey forced a smile.
She
got drunk and all she could think about was how to escape from him.
Did he make her feel disgusted like that?
Roland didn’t catch the car, he came back with a frustrated look on his face, and this was what he saw.
He, who had just said firmly that he would no longer have any contact with Jeffrey, was now leaning on Jeffrey, smiling and touching him.
What a terrifying scene it was!
