NovelAppChapter 175 Joe stood up, but Skylar pulled him back gently. "Don't go..." Joe raised an eyebrow, peering down at Skylar on the bed. "Are you really drunk or just pretending?" Skylar blinked her foggy eyes, trying to focus on the figure before her. However, her vision stayed fuzzy, as if a mist clouded the person before her. Yet, she felt an unknown danger, like a dream she couldn't shake off.
She slumped onto the bed, powerless as she was betrayed by the person she trusted the most. "Christopher..." Skylar mumbled.
At the mention of Christopher, Joe's expression turned cold. How could a scumbag like him still be on her mind? "Get away from me..." Skylar had been holding Joe's hand tightly, but now she released it. Joe's expression remained sullen. She was all over him just moments ago, yet now she wanted him to leave? "Leavealone!" Skylar added, feeling her earlier words weren't firm enough to express her disgust toward Christopher.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe never wanted to see Christopher again in her life. He disgusted her too much.
Remembering those years now made her heart ache. And it was not because of the pain Christopher caused, but because she realized she had wasted her youth on him while there were other boys who admired her.
Even the top student in the class had professed his feelings to her. It was such a waste.
Joe held a stern gaze as he said, "I should've left you to sleep on the ground to sober up. Otherwise, who knows what kind of filth is filling your mind?" After saying that, Joe felt somewhat relieved. He roughly grabbed the blanket that Skylar had kicked away, yanked it up, and tossed it back over her before striding away.
skylar woke The next morning, up with a pounding headache and a vague recollection of Joe's warning about drinking. And she seemed to have blacked out. Did she say anything in response? The aftermath of the alcohol made her regret drinking. She rubbed her temples, trying to piece together the previous night's events.
"Oh, no. I can't remember a thing! I didn't do anything weird after getting drunk last night, did I? I mean, I have a good character, so I would have good drinking manners too, right?" With that, she felt confident that she must have obediently gone upstairs to sleep after getting drunk.
Just as Skylar walked out, she bumped into Joe, who had just cout of the room.
"Good morning," Skylar greeted with a hint of guilt in her voice, sensing that something had happened. Otherwise, Joe wouldn't have looked at her with such frosty eyes as if he felt wronged.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChapter 175 Joe raised an eyebrow slightly. "Sober now?" He asked about being sober, not if she had awakened. Skylar sighed inwardly. Well, one couldn't have a good character and be a good drinker, huh? In a questioning tone, she asked, “I went upstairs to sleep after I got drunk yesterday, right? Did I cause you any trouble?" "Trouble? Not trouble, but injuries," Joe calmly responded.
Skylar was startled. Did she hit him while drunk? Was she such a problem drinker?
"Letsee where you're hurt. I really don't remember anything. Is it m serious? Should we go to the hospital? Letcheck, Skylar anxiously asked.
Joe pointed to his chest. "The injury is here. Are you sure you want to see it? Should take my clothes off for you to check?" Skylar misstepped and nearly fell. She was mortified. "I... How did this happen?" Her fighting skills were rather civilized, and she typically wouldn't hurt vital areas unless under exceptional circumstances.
"You touched, rubbed, and pinched almost all over my chest. Do you still want to see it?" Jde smiled faintly, and his eyes were filled with a hint of anticipation for her reaction. Skylar's face flushed instantly.
