Chapter 149 Kate’s Crying
With that, Kate gulped down the wine and looked at Landon. Pretending to be nonchalant, she said
with a smile. “Don’t forget to drink your own glass of wine as well.” Landon replied, “Of course, I’m not
afraid of it.” Upon finishing his words, he picked up the glass and gulped down the wine. Before they
could eat anything, Kate continued, “Gianna, don’t you want to drink with our new friend? Gianna
understood that Kate was just trying to forget her sadness by consuming alcohol. At that instant, she
didn’t want the latter to put herself in a difficult situation or make her face the harsh reality.
As the owner of the house, no matter how much she disliked Melanie, she had to remain polite. Lifting
her glass, she proposed, ‘Come on. Since this is our first meeting, we definitely have to drink together.
I’ll drink this glass of wine for both of you. Miss Hopper, are you okay with a soft drink?”

glass, Kate said, “I will drink with you guys.” With that, she finished the wine in the glass.
Finishing the wine as well, Landon gazed at Kate and said, “Why did you come up with an excuse
when you just wanted to consume alcohol? No one will carry you on the back and send you home
later.” Laughing, Kate replied, “Stop spouting nonsense. You never carried me on your back before.
Your words might make your girlfriend misunderstand.” Gazing at Kate, Gianna felt helpless, Kate
might appear to be alright, but she must be utterly heartbroken at the moment Thoughtless, Landon
replied, “Why do you refuse to admit it? When that jerk cheated on you some time ago, you drank lots
of wine and became wasted. I carried you on my back and sent you home.” “I dumped him, okay?”
Kate refuted. Relentless, Landon pursued, “Just say whether it happened.” “I don’t remember it.”
Turning to Gianna, Landon questioned, “Gianna, it happened, right?” Smiling faintly, Gianna replied,
“Both of you, stop it. Why do you talk about this topic in front of your girlfriend? Aren’t you afraid that
she’ll be jealous?” Hearing that, Melanie magnanimously waved her hands.” It’s fine. I know that both
of you are Landon’s best friends.” The dinner lasted for two hours as they kept drinking wine and did
nothing else. Two bottles of white wine were finished by three people. As light drinkers, Landon and
Kate became intoxicated. While Kate was lying on the table, Landon managed to get up and said
goodbye. Although he also drank on behalf of Melanie, he could drink much more than Kate, so he
appeared to be okay. “I’ll take my leave. Gianna, please take care of Kate and make sure she’s alright.”
Gianna glared at him, “Just take care of yourself.“ Smiling, Landon gazed at Melanie and said, “With
Mel here, I’ll be alright.” With that, he draped his arms around Melanie’s shoulders and tottered out of
the house. The moment the door was closed, Gianna felt as though she had been drained of all her
energy. Maybe she shouldn’t have made that call, otherwise things wouldn’t have come to such a point.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWalking up to the dinner table, she inquired, “Katie, how are you? Are you really drunk?” “Have they
left?”
With a fushed face, Kate wasn’t completely intoxicated yet. “A girlfriend he’s only known for more than
ten days has become as important as we are. Gianna, it seems that you aren’t so important in his
heart.”
Upset, Gianna hugged her and said, “You did a good job just now, as you didn’t embarrass yourself.
There’s no outsider now. Just cry all you want.” Kate was smiling, but her eyes uncontrollably welled
up. Raising her hand to wipe off her tears, she replied, “Why should I cry? It’s a good thing, so there’s
no reason for me to cry Despite what she said, her tears streamed down her cheeks as she forced
herself to smile. Standing on the side, Gianna consoled, “Katie, stop it. Just cry it out if you’re upset.”
