Chapter 297: Chapter 297

Chapter 297 She Wasn’t In Love With Me In the First Place “Yes!” Eugene answered. As a result, the person on the other end of the phone was shocked. “Wait a minute, did I just hear you say yes?”

Eugene was already getting impatient. “Are you coming or not? Stop wasting time like a little girl!”

Alex couldn’t help but laugh. “Of course I’m coming! How can I miss the opportunity to hear about Young Master Nolan’s gossip?

Where should we meet? At our usual spot?”

“Yes.” After Eugene hung up the phone, he started the car and drove toward Ruby Palace. When he arrived, Alex was already there, and he couldn’t help but complain when Eugene walked over, “You really are slow.”

“And you’re really into gossip!” Eugene rebuked and snorted.

Alex didn’t care about his ridicule. “Well, that’s enough to prove that I value you!” Eugene just glared at him and ignored him, then found a seat and sat down.

Alex didn’t mind and leaned in close instead. With a smile, he asked, “What do you have in mind? Are the two of us drinking alone or should I call two people over?”

“If you want to call them over, just go ahead!” Eugene replied angrily. Alex clicked his tongue in disappointment and said, “Look how dirty your thoughts are. I was just asking whether we should call a few friends over. What were you thinking?”

Eugene glared at him and said, “Are you trying to play word games with me? If you don’t have dirty thoughts, how would you know that I was having dirty thoughts?” Alex pursed his lips in annoyance and sat next to him. Then, he stared at Eugene intently, as if he was studying his expression. He was quiet for less than ten seconds before he couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked, “What’s the matter? Did you break up?”

Eugene didn’t answer his question. Instead, he let out a long sigh and asked, “Have you ordered?”

“Not yet. What do you want to drink?”

“Let’s go with the usual trio!”

Alex raised an eyebrow. It seems that he genuinely wants to get drunk. The usual trio is the combination of beer, whiskey and red wine! Their drinks were served soon after they ordered. Once the door of the VIP room was closed, only two men drinking alcohol were left in the room.

Eugene was dire to get drunk and Alex was a good friend who accompanied him. Even though he was dying to hear about the gossip, he knew Eugene wouldn’t easily want to get drunk. Once he acted that way, it meant that he was really upset.

In the end, they each finished a bottle of red wine before Alex asked, “What happened? You haven’t reconciled with her yet?

Didn’t you ask me to warn Aleena last time? I thought you two got back together!”

Eugene took a deep breath and didn’t know what to say. It seems that no matter how I phrase it, it is still embarrassing. How can I tell him that I only got a place as a trial boyfriend after three months of courting her?

How can I tell him that I was ignored and treated poorly after I’ve only been her trial boyfriend for a few hours? How can I tell him that my girlfriend is desperate to hide me and not let anyone know about me? I can’t tell him any of that!

“Let’s not talk about it. Just drink.” Eugene raised his glass and once again finished all the wine in his glass in one gulp. Alex was a little surprised. He asked me out for a drink and admitted that he is lovelorn but won’t tell me the details. What is he trying to do? Perhaps it’s because he’s not drunk enough.

With a sly smile on his face, Alex drank glass after glass with him. Eugene could hold his alcohol pretty well but he was slightly worse than Alex. After another bottle of whiskey, Eugene was completely drunk. “What’s the matter? Is your darling Olivia in love with someone else?” Alex asked tentatively.

Eugene snorted and sneered, “She didn’t actually fall in love with someone else.” She wasn’t in love with me in the first place.

Alex frowned and was confused. “What do you mean? If she isn’t in love with someone else, what did you ask me out to drink?

You have to show some patience when it comes to winning over a woman’s heart, especially when she’s independent with a strong personality!”

“Am I not patient enough? I watched her be together with another man with my own eyes but I can’t show any dissatisfaction.

Moreover, I can’t show up in front of her to remind her of my existence. Which boyfriend is more miserable than me?”
