NovelEnglishChapter 239 I felt slightly awkward too as I stared at Xander.
Xander immediately shrugged. "Stop imagining things. It was a mistake." He instantly turned to look a t Jerwith an angry face. "You'd better explain to them how I ended up here." Jerlooked like he was about to cry. "Alright. No good deed goes unpunished. Now I fully understand what that means." He turned his head and looked at me. "He got drunk at the club. I picked him up and brought him here." "Hah, you're good at picking someone up. Not only did you pick up a guy but he's also a superstar." Cecilia scoffed at Jerome, refusing to believe what he said.
"It's true." Jerpanicked. "Last night, I passed by a private room by accident. And I saw that this guy had gotten terribly drunk. He was almost molested by his female fans. Considering our previous acquaintanceship and to prevent him from getting on today's headlines, which would definitely cause a stir in the entertainment industry, I fetched him back here." "So does that mean I should be thanking you?" Xander pinched his brows as if he was trying to recall what had happened last night.
It seemed he had really blacked out and could not remember anything.

Jerglared at him and replied angrily, "Do you think I wanted to bring you back here?! I asked where your house was and you refused to tell me. And when I asked you to call your assistant, you refused to. You didn't want to letgo either. If I hadn't brought you back here, then should I have slept with you on the streets?" Cecilia had a gossipy look on her face. She asked a question that made things worse. "There's only one bed in this room. You brought him back, and it was a long night." "Shut up!" Xander and Jeryelled at her at the stime.
"I'm straight, and I can't be any straighter. Stop talking nonsense and ruining my reputation." Xander had a temper. He was shouting now.
too. I'm a straight guy." Jerwas grunting resentfully.
I was afraid that both of them would want to prove themselves on the spot. I immediately said, "Alright, alright. It's late. Hurry up and get washed up. Let's go downstairs for lunch." Both of them looked at each other and snorted. Then, they turned around at the stto enter the bathroom.
"And you say there's nothing going on between both of you? You're going into the bathroom together!" Cecilia pointed at them with an expression of disbelief on her face.
"That's normal. Don't get the wrong idea." I was a little frustrated.
I sat on the sofa and waited for them. Just then, the phone in my bag rang. I answered the call, and it was Theo's voice on the other side of the phone. "Where are you?" "Hotel," I answered honestly.
He paused for a moment and replied placidly," Visiting your friend?" "Yes. Cecilia and I cto have lunch with him," I answered.
"Alright. Take care, don't get heatstroke." Then, he hung up.

"My belly is so big now. He's just worried about the baby," I answered honestly. Theo only changed because of this child. He was just loving the crow that cwith the house. Thanks to the baby, I was being given so much attention.
Cecilia's expression changed, and she did not say anything more. touched my forehead. Howl wished I my could slap myself in the face. Was I not stabbing Cecilia's chest with my words just now? While we remained silent, I received a Whatmessage. It was Theo. [This is the timetable for the yoga class. Choose the tand I'll pick you up.]
I was speechless. I said I wanted to consider it. I did not expect him to be m this efficient. He had already signedup. Did he not tellthat we were leaving in a couple of days? What a waste of money! I turned my head to Cecilia and said, "Theo signedup for a yoga class. Let's attend the class together, okay?"
"Tm not going. I've been feeling uncomfortable since I cback. I don't even want to move. I'm going E n: back to the countryside once all of you leave. I can sleep well and eat well there. I won't need any yoga classes." Cecilia rejectedright away without even thinking. There was nothing more I could say.
Soon, Xander and Jercout of the bathroom.
Xander looked atand asked, "How do you know each other?" "We were classmates in university for four years and were best buddies!" I answered and looked at Xander." How do you both know each other?"
