Chapter 43 Mikayla refrained herself.
She stood firm. She was determined not to lose herself in his charm.
Mikayla glanced at Jercoldly.
“What are you doing standing here? You scared me!” w are you Jersaid gently, unfazed, “Didn’t you send Grandma off? here? I've been looking for you.” Mikayla observed Jerome’s demeanor as he spoke. She was sure that he was under the influence.
Jerwas assertive in nature. Despite being sluggish, he would never utter such words.
In the previous life, Jerhad also been wasted from alcohol. Upon returning home, he would simply retire to bed without causing any scenes.
Mikayla felt slightly relieved.
As a precaution, she called Mike and asked him to arrange for someone to pick them up.

“Understood, Mrs. Miller.” Mike hung up the call. BQ “You still haven't toldwhy you're here.” Jergripped Mikayla’s arm. He was determined to get an answer.
Mikayla had heard from Celeste that the intoxicated ones could be quite intimidating.
Mikayla had no intention of arguing.
She responded, “I got bored, so | walked around.” “Why were you feeling bored?” Jergazed at Mikayla hazily, his expression‘ serious.
Mikayla was at a loss for words. She pondered that if she captured Jerome’s goofy demeanor on camera, she could probably tease him for a fortune.
When he didn’t receive a response, Jerabruptly reached out and pulled her into his embrace.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?” “Let go of me, Jerome!” Despite Mikayla’s attempt to break free, Jertightened his embrace.
“Where are your manners? Didn't you used to call‘Jay’? Why did it stop?” he retorted in irritation.
Mikayla jolted upon hearing his words. She felt a mix of irony and bitterness.
At last, she was consumed by anger.
“Jerome, is it fun for you to act out because you've been drinking? Or is it because you're unfamiliar withno longer actively pursuing you?” Mikayla forcefully shoved him away.
Mikayla found the word “Jay” to be ironic.
She had trailed after him, calling him “Jay”. But had he ever paid attention? Mikayla tightly knitted her brows together.
She was incredulous that he now expected her to call him “Jay”.
Jerstumbled backward as Mikayla pushed him away. Despite regaining sconsciousness, he still felt tipsy.
Although he wasn’t entirely intoxicated, he wasn’t fully conscious either.
