Chapter 158
The next second, Eliza was pulled into a familiar embrace. Beau’s embrace was extremely warm. She
lay in his arms and smiled drunkenly. “It’s better in the dream.” She must be dreaming. If it wasn’t a
dream, why would Beau appear in front of her? Why would he hug her? He should be busy with his
work now. He should be thinking about Chasity. How could it be possible… How could it be possible for
him to come to her, an unimportant woman? Beau, who was holding her, sighed softly. He raised his
head and looked at the people in the room. “Everyone, my wife is drunk.” “I’ll take her away first.” After
that, he held Eliza in his arms. When he was about to stand up, he was blocked by an arm.
It was Julian. He leaned against the door with a cold smile on his lips. “Mr. Valentine, do you want to
take her away just like this?” “If not?” Beau held Eliza in his arms and swept his cold gaze across
Julian’s face. “It seems that I don’t need Mr. Benton’s permission to take my wife home.” “If you and
Eliza didn’t quarrel, naturally you don’t need my permission.” Julian picked up the goblet and took a sip
of red wine with a faint smile on his lips. “But now, your relationship is not good.” “Eliza is drunk now. If I
allow you to take her away, I’m afraid she will throw a tantrum at me when she wakes up.” 2 He
deliberately made the relationship between Eliza and him sound intimate. In fact, Eliza had never said
anything about quarreling with Beau, nor would she be angry at him. Beau curled his lips. “Oh?” “Why
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdo I not know that I had a fight with my wife?” In the room, the two tall men had a strong aura. Their tit-
for-tat interaction made the atmosphere in the room oppressive. Gloria bit her lips and quickly walked
overto be the peacemaker. “That.” “Mr. Benton, did Eliza and Mr. Valentine have a fight?” “Didn’t she
just call Mr. Valentine on the balcony?” “It didn’t look like a quarrel…” Julian curled his lips. “If they
didn’t quarrel, why did Eliza not eat much and start drinking straight after she returned from the
balcony?” “She’s obviously not good at drinking, but after talking with Beau on the phone, she started
drinking crazily. Isn’t it obvious enough?” Gloria was stunned. It seemed… to make sense. She looked
at Julian and then at Beau. For a moment, she did not know what to do. Even though Eliza was drunk,
the oppressive atmosphere in the room still made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She pursed her
lips and pulled away Beau’s hand. “I want to drink,” Gloria frowned and hurried to hold her.
The surrounding actors whispered and began to talk. “Why did Mr. Benton stop her husband from
taking her away? Even if they had a quarrel, Eliza and Mr. Valentine are still husband and wife. Is there
anything more intimate than a married couple?”
“But Mr. Benton’s attitude is understandable. If your friend quarrels with her husband, will you allow her
husband to take her away when she is drunk?”
The discussions of the crowd rose one after another. Gloria twisted her eyebrows and suddenly had an
idea. “If Eliza sobers up, she can make her own decision, can’t she?” Her words made the whole room
suddenly quiet down. Beau smiled faintly, “All right.” After that, he looked coldly at Noah, who had been
guarding the door. “Prepare some hangover soup and medicine.” Noah nodded respectfully and turned
to leave. After he left, Beau looked up calmly at Julian. “Mr. Benton.” “If Eliza sobers up and proves that
we are not quarreling, are you going to apologize for your obstructing of my actions?” Julian furrowed
his brows but remained silent. “I don’t want to sober up!” When the two men were at loggerheads, Eliza
shook off Gloria who was supporting her, and sat down on the sofa. “Drink…” As she spoke, she
looked at Beau in a daze. “Mr. Valentine, come over and drink with me!” Then she glanced at Julian
again. “You come here, too!” “We… won’t leave until we get drunk!” Gloria helplessly twisted her
eyebrows. “Eliza, you are drunk! Don’t mess around!” Even if she was drunk, she could not just let
these two men drink with her! “Sounds good.” Julian curled his lips and sat down beside Eliza. Beau
frowned and sat down on the other side of her. “Let’s… play Truth or Dare!” Eliza belched, and while
pouring wine for the two men next to her, she said in a drunken voice, “Drink up! Julian narrowed his
eyes. He directly picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it up.
Beau laughed coldly and picked up the glass to drink as well. One of the two men was cold and proud,
while the other was graceful and elegant. The two individuals sat by Eliza’s side, one left and one right.
They kept drinking continuously, making everyone around them stupefied. Gloria quickly picked up her
phone and secretly recorded the scene. O When she finished the first part and was ready to shoot the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmother part, the phone in her pocket rang
This was Eliza’s phone. It dropped on the floor when she supported Eliza just now, so she put it in her
pocket She wanted to give it back to Eliza when she returned to her room later, but she didn’t expect it
to ring in her pocket. Gloria picked up the phone. It was from Graciana. “Where is Eliza?” Hearing
Gloria’s voice, Graciana frowned directly. “Who are you?” Gloria took a look at Eliza, who was still
leaning on the sofa and watching the two men drinking, she hurriedly went to the balcony with her
mobile phone in her hand. She gave Graciana a brief explanation of the current situation and even sent
her a short video of Beau drinking with Julian, Graciana, “…” “I’ll be right there.”
Twenty minutes later. Noah arrived with the hangover soup and medicine, so as Graciana. The two
men on the sofa had already drunk two bottles of red wine respectively. Surprisingly, their tolerance
level for the alcohol was high. Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to stay sober after drinking a bottle of
wine. Not only were these two men not drunk, but they continued to compete with each other. Graciana
glanced at Eliza, who was still drinking on the sofa, and quickly strode over. “Eliza, I’ll take you back to
your room.” Eliza curled her lips and pulled Graciana’s arm away. “No!” “I want… I want to continue
drinking!” Then, she picked up the bottle on the table and was about to drink it. Beau quickly snatched
the bottle of wine. Julian also hid the other drinks on the table, afraid that she would continue to snatch
them. “Stop drinking.” Graciana pursed her lips. “Why are you so drunk?” Eliza chuckled. “I’m in a bad
mood, I just want to drink!” Graciana sighed and held Eliza’s hand. “Why are you in a bad mood?” Her
best friend’s familiar warmth and tone cleared Eliza’s head a little. She looked up and stared at
Graciana’s face. Her aggrieved voice almost sounded like she was going to cry, “I’m in a bad mood.”
“Beau doesn’t like me.”
