Chapter 2729 Drink Till We Drop
Jessica was stunned upon seeing the state that she was in.
She had never seen Joan ruin herself in such a manner before. Furthermore, she had never seen her so dispirited. What exactly happened? Puzzled, Jessica stared suspiciously at her.
“Joan, tell me what exactly happened between Larry and you,” she said gently as she stroked Joan’s hair.
Uncaring that there were others around her, Joan suddenly cried, “That idiot actually suspects me! I feel so upset!”
Instantly, Jessica understood. It looks like something really happened between them.
Without any further hesitation, she then took out her phone and called Larry.
“What’s going on, Larry? Joan just got back, but you’ve already made her upset? Why are you always so petty? All she did was hang out with Dustin for a few days…”
Jessica had spoken very rudely and with a bad attitude. As a result, Larry became stunned by the situation.
“What are you saying, Jessica?” he asked suspiciously in a blunt tone.
“I said that you’re too narrow-minded. Joan and Dustin are merely friends. Do you have to interrogate her like that every day…”
Clearly, before she even fully understood what happened between the couple, she had made her own assumptions and called him.
Therefore, he knew that she had wronged him and did not continue the conversation any further.
“Okay, I still have a lot to deal with here. I’ll talk to you later,” he replied before hanging up the phone.
Who does he think he is? He’s so rude! She scowled as a flicker of coldness flashed across her eyes.
Turning back to Joan, Jessica raised her glass and said, “Cheers, Joan! Tonight, I’ll drink with you as much as you want!” Then, she downed the entire glass.
Looking at how enthusiastic she was being, Joan smiled. “I knew you were loyal! We’ll drink till we drop tonight!”
Just like that, in one corner of the bar, the two women continuously shouted, drank, sang, and complained…
No one else understood their bad mood at that moment, and no one went over to have a drink with them.
“Don’t be angry with Larry. He’s just impulsive sometimes. Don’t mind him…” said Jessica as she hiccupped.
Joan sneered as she studied Jessica’s expression. She looked a little drunk.
“Who cares about him? I’m so happy right now. Why should I think unhappy thoughts…”
Then, they started another round of drinks.
Unknowingly, a long time had passed before both women were so drunk that they slumped onto the table and closed their eyes.
When they next woke up, it was already the next day. Joan rubbed her eyes, feeling very tired.
“Wake up, Jessica,” she said, gently nudging her awake.
“Don’t touch me. Let me sleep a little longer,” she muttered impatiently, shaking off Joan’s arm.
Outside, the sun had long risen.
Looks like we went a little too crazy again yesterday! Joan tidied her clothes as she waited for her friend to wake up.
A long while later, Jessica finally stretched and yawned, slowly opening her eyes.
“It’s morning,” she murmured tiredly.
It was morning a long time ago! Joan then glanced over at her with a serious expression. “Come on, let’s hurry home,” she said, about to pull Jessica away from the bar.
“Don’t. Why are you so anxious? Let me rest for a while,” said Jessica, as she moved to lie on the sofa leisurely.
“Stop it, Jessica. You should hurry home. Caspian will be worried,” Joan reminded her.
So what? I just have to explain it to him clearly. Acting as if she had not heard anything, Jessica closed her eyes again, enjoying a rare opportunity for relaxation.
