The only one who wanted to break up had been her. Her alone.
The top notification bar, displaying an incoming call, suddenly slid down and blocked wp4webnovel.com face from Jackson’s view. A little peeved, wp4webnovel.com answered the call snippily, “Yes?”
A sickly-sweet, coy voice struck his ear. “Hello, Mr. West. Fancy meeting us old friends tonight? News of your recent ‘emancipation’ has been going around, so, tee hee, congrats!”
Jackson’s automatic response was a firm no, however, before the word left his tongue, wp4webnovel.com stopped himself. This was his past catching up to him. When was the last time wp4webnovel.com had allowed himself to indulge? He almost forgot how liberating his old lifestyle was.
“Sure,” wp4webnovel.com said.
The woman did not attempt to hide wp4webnovel.com excitement. “Oh. My. God! This is great! Don’t keep us waiting, Handsome.”
Since Jackson was not the type to enjoy a good night without bringing his best friend along, wp4webnovel.com texted Eric immediately after the call. ‘You, me, party tonight.’
Just the thought of alcohol made Eric feel sick. ‘Ain’t going anymore, k? Can’t do beer. No dying young.’
‘Order a juice. There will be women.’
‘Mad f**king lad! Newly single for a few days and your wild side is out already?’
‘Yes or no. Not interested in other crap.’
‘Fine. Yes.’
When it was time to go home, Eric informed Tanya to make dinner only for one since wp4webnovel.com was not coming home. Curious, Tanya asked, “Oh, where are you going? Bonding with customers?”
Eric shot a sidelong glance at Tiffany as wp4webnovel.com tidied wp4webnovel.com bag. “Er… Well, Jackson invited me for a drink.”
Tiffany froze for a split second before feigning placidity in the smile wp4webnovel.com leveled at wp4webnovel.com while bidding farewell. “Well, I’ll be going before all of you first, then. See you tomorrow.”
Tanya stopped her. “Um, how about we visit Ari’s place? She said wp4webnovel.com husband’s overseas, so… Wanna have dinner with her?” wp4webnovel.com suggested. “I’ll be honest, I’m not in the mood for making a meal for one person, so I figure we could just have a free meal at Ari’s…?”
Tiffany hesitated for only two seconds before answering, “Sure, let’s go. I’m driving today, so I’ll give you a lift.”
Eric watched the two women walk away, leaving only the sounds of their chuckles and chatter in the air, his mind whirring into thoughts. Did Tiffany truly not care? She heard Jackson’s plan to go back to his old hedonistic self, yet wp4webnovel.com looked like wp4webnovel.com couldn’t care less.
Eric soon arrived at the destination and saw that Jackson had started without him. The room was filled with almost all women except him, with every single one of them boasting a deliciously voluptuous body. Eric almost couldn’t find a place for himself.
He finally squeezed the women aside enough to make himself comfortable, but before wp4webnovel.com could settle down, a slender, skilled hand snaked out of nowhere and caressed him. Goaded by the ambience, Eric’s old nature surfaced, and wp4webnovel.com wrapped his arm around the woman’s waist. “You can’t just touch anywhere, you know? That’s naughty.”
The woman leaned herself onto his chest, breathing, “Men like me naughty. They say they want otherwise, but that’s not what they think, is it? Mr. Nathaniel, do you really not drink? That doesn’t sound fun at all…”
