Chapter 20

"Do you often go to nightclubs?" Pierre asked.

"I don't!"

"What? So why-"

"Never mind, forget it! Let's dance!" Ruby who was starting to get drunk, pulled Pierrr's hand onto the dance floor.

Pierre was a little surprised, but he couldn't deny it. He felt that this was fun, but what was unexpected was Ruby's behavior when she was drunk. He started acting aggressively and it was very surprising.

Ruby danced unsteadily and threw herself into Ruby's arms. Pierrr's heart was beating fast, and without realizing it, his arms wrapped around Lila's body.

"Hey, you okay?" Pierre whispered. He knew Ruby wasn't fine. He was drunk and it was clear that he wasn't a great drunk.

"Pierre!" Ruby tried to open her eyes, making Pierre couldn't help but look into her beautiful eyes. It made his blood boil. The look on Lila's face invited him to kiss her.

"Yes?"

"Do I look pretty?"

"Yes, you are very beautiful!"

"Is it true?"

"Of course!" Pierre's eyes were focused on Ruby's clearly visible cleavage. His dirty mind kept turning the question, was Ruby wearing a bra or not? He wanted to see it more clearly.

"But why is that bastard always being rude to me?"

"Just forget that bastard! He's just pretending-"

"Hey, dude! Who are you calling pretending?" Henry, without Pierre realizing it, was standing behind him, made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.

Pierre looked back, Henry's scary face seemed to threaten him. Not to mention that her hand was tightly gripping Pierre's shoulder, making Pierre shudder even more.

"You bully!"

"Who are you calling a bully? What are you doing?"

"As you can see, we are dancing!"

"Damn, you think I don't know, what have you been looking at all this time? Crazy, she's not wearing a bra, right?" Henry continued to curse, but his eyes remained focused on the part that annoyed him.

"It looks like he's starting to get drunk! Just stop it! Get him to sit on the sofa!" Jacob said. He led Ruby to the sofa and helped her sit down.

Ruby felt a very strong dizziness in her head. Even though he had to work tomorrow morning, tonight he was drunk.

"Ugh...my head is dizzy!"

"You can't drink alcohol, right?" Jacob gave Ruby mineral water to drink.

"I just wanted to have fun with you guys like before. But it seems like I'm not having fun anymore, huh?" Lila muttered with her eyes starting to close. He laid his head back on the sofa.

Hearing the answer, Pierre, Jacob and Aiden felt sorry. They don't know that Lila is trying to join them again. But he seemed to be forcing himself a little. His confession made Jacob, Aiden and Pierre immediately look at Henry. They knew that all this was because of Henry's words which had always offended them since they met again.

Lila was really asleep, Pierre tried to confirm it. This was bad because they had to carry him in this unconscious state and people who saw would probably think badly of them.

"Why? So, it's my fault?" he asked in protest.

"Henry, I think it's best if we just forget about old problems for a while. After all, we're not little kids anymore who still have to bear heartache!" Jacob said. He really wanted to tell Henry that what he did made him feel like a child.

"Jake's right! Henry, can you just be normal with him?" Pierre asked. However, Henry, who was stubborn, couldn't take the words of his two friends easily.

"How could I possibly forget what he did to me! If you've forgotten it, just forget it! That's up to you. But you don't need to control my feelings!"

Meanwhile, Aiden was busy observing Lila's sleeping face. She didn't know when her sleeping face, which used to be so crazy, became so beautiful like this.

"Hey Lila, I'm glad you're back! I hope you stay here with us!"

"Hey, is it okay like this?" Henry asked. The gazes of the people in this place seemed to penetrate his heart.

How come? Now the four of them are busy taking care of Lila who is drunk and taking her to the car. It's actually a common thing, but people don't seem to think so.

Four men carried a woman who was drunk. Like they were going to do something to him.

"Why? You're afraid they'll think we're going to abuse him, right?" Said Aiden, who didn't care at all about other people's judgments. He was actually happy to take part in carrying Lila.

"It seems they misunderstood!" Said Jacob who had been observing the people around them.

This is a nightclub, when men and women are drunk and want to spend the night together it is normal. However, what about four suspicious men? Maybe they would also spend the night with him? Jacob was quite annoyed by the way people looked at him, but he tried to hold it in.

"Just leave it! The most important thing is that we take him and send him home safely!" Pierre said as he opened his car door.

Aiden took Lila into the passenger seat and laid her down. Meanwhile Pierre took over the wheel because this was his car.

"What if I just take him home?" Aiden volunteered after they previously agreed that Pierre would take him to his house considering that Pierre's house was the closest.

"You think we'll let that happen?" Said Henry who strongly disagreed with Aiden's offer.

"Why? Do you mind? Do you care about him so much that you won't let me be alone with him?" Aiden grinned, trying to show his aggression towards Henry, who since being on the dance floor looked very annoyed with him.

"Damn, who cares about him? I don't care! It's up to you!" He said angrily. His excessive emotions clearly showed what was in his heart.

Aiden chuckled, making Henry annoyed and really wanting to beat him up. Meanwhile Jacob was already in his car and ready to go home.
