Chapter 1639 Really Drunk
“Have some tea.” Julian poured her a cup of tea.
Jessie drank it and asked, “Mr. Gilmore, why do you do so much for me?”
He fell into deep thought upon hearing that question. In all honesty, I’m not so sure about that as well. Is it because
you’re Queenie’s sister and that she’s my best friend’s fiancée? Is that why I care about you so much? “What? Are
you complaining about it? Do you really have to ask for a reason?” He evaded her question as he had no answer for
it.
“I guess not. Don’t mind me. That was a stupid question. I should be happy that someone is nice to me.” She
beamed giddily. It was evident that she had gotten really drunk.
“I should see my dad and mom now.” She pushed herself up and tried to leave. I can walk, no problem. However,

and falling right into Julian’s arms.
He quickly placed his arm around her waist and helped her back to her seat. “Don’t go around. Stay here.”
Jessie was cute when she was drunk. She patted her cheeks, her eyes telling a hundred stories at the same time.
Then, she huddled closer. “Mr. Gilmore, can I ask you something? It’s private, but I promise it’s just a question. I
won’t tell anyone.”
“What is it?”
“Are you dating Eva? Is she your girlfriend?” she asked curiously. The only one who was rumored to be dating him
was Eva, the actress he had worked with many times. Jessie wanted to know if they were dating for real.
“Is that important to you?” Julian narrowed his eyes.
She chuckled. “Not really. Just wanna know. You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to.”
“No, we are not dating. Eva and I are only partners,” he answered seriously.
Jessie blinked. Oh, he denies it. That means it’s merely a rumor. He’s still single.
Right then, Brandon and Maggie approached them. The old couple felt for Jessie seeing her getting this drunk,
though they were also amused. Lots of people had raised a toast to her earlier, and she had no idea how to deal
with them, so as a result, she had a bit too much to drink.
“Where’s Queenie? I don’t see her anywhere. She could’ve helped Jessie upstairs,” Brandon said.
They still had to entertain many guests, so they couldn’t leave. Just then, Jessie stood up. “Don’t worry about me,
Dad, Mom. I can go upstairs by myself.”
“No. You are drunk. I don’t want anything to happen to you.”
She then turned around to look at the man by her side. “Can you take me to my room, Mr. Gilmore?”
The Silversteins felt a little awkward. She’s really drunk. She’s actually asking Julian to take her to her room. That’s
inappropriate.
Julian was awkward as well. This wasn’t something he should do. After all, he was a guy, and she was a girl, not to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmention a drunk one. There was no way he would say yes, not when her parents were around.
However, Maggie smiled. “We’re counting on you, then. Queenie’s not here, and we can’t leave. So, we’ll leave her
in your hands.”
Bewildered, Brandon looked at his wife, but Maggie shot him a look. Hey, I want him to marry Jessie. Let him do
something for her, alright?
The husband immediately caught onto her intention, and he patted Julian’s shoulder. “We’re counting on you,
Julian.”
Well, if they’re trusting me so much, I guess I have to do this. Julian nodded. “Of course, Mr. and Mrs. Silverstein. I’ll
take care of her.”
“Go on. There are too many people here. She should get some rest.”
With that, the Silverstein couple left. As soon as Jessie stood up, Julian offered his arm for her to steady herself. She
held it as he led her to the lobby.
