Chapter 240 Are You Drunk?
He didn't know how Stella persuaded Nathan, but when they were having dinner at Blue Bay in the evening, Nathan remained calm when he saw Adeline.
Not only did he suppress his arrogance from noon, but he even took the initiative to apologize to Adeline.
"Ms. Wilson, I was impulsive."
"Stella explained the whole story to me, and I realized that Evelyn was in the wrong."
"So."
The middle-aged man glanced at the slap mark that he had caused on Adeline's face, sighed heavily, and apologized to her.
"I won't act so irrationally in the future."
Adeline was somewhat shocked.
But even though she didn't have a good impression of Nathan, he was still an elder after all.
She smiled at Nathan, and the matter passed.
Perhaps it was because Jasper and Stella had been away for too long, and the whole family happened to be together today.
Ted arranged a table full of delicious food in the kitchen.
Nathan's emotions were a bit high, and he kept urging Jasper to drink, one glass after another.
By the end, only Jasper, Nathan, Ethan, and Stella, who had been taking care of Jasper, were left at the dining table.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Nathan finally felt full and ready to leave.
At this moment, Jasper was almost unconscious from drinking.
"Is he really my son? His alcohol tolerance is much lower than mine!"
Nathan laughed, supported by his bodyguard as he left, and glanced at Stella. "Take him upstairs."
"Your request, I have finally fulfilled."
Stella nodded and smiled at him. "Thank you, Dad."
After Nathan left, Stella, with a triumphant smile, helped Jasper upstairs.
Bedroom.
Stella laid Jasper on the bed and began to unbutton his shirt.
She couldn't miss this perfect opportunity!
But what Stella didn't expect was that as soon as she unbuttoned two buttons, Jasper's large hand accurately grabbed her wrist.
Jasper closed his eyes tightly, a bit blurry in his senses, but his consciousness was unusually clear.
"Who are you?"
"You are not Adeline, not my wife..."
"You... go away!"
He threw her hand aside.
Stella, with her balance unstable, fell heavily on the carpet.
A huge pain struck, and Stella bit her teeth tightly as she lay on the ground.
She just could not believe it!
He could not continue with her when he was sober.
Could not even do it when drunk?
So Stella took a deep breath, endured the pain, got up from the ground, climbed back onto Jasper, tore open his collar with both hands and was about to kiss him.
Jasper's large hand accurately grabbed her again, pushing her away.
"Get out!"
With his eyes closed, his voice intoxicated, "You are not Adeline! Not my wife!"
"Stay away from me..."
Stella got up from the ground again.
She stared fiercely at Jasper lying drunk on the bed, his face flushed.
Last time at the banquet in Victoria Hollow City, when he was drunk, it was the same.
Even when drunk, he could accurately push her away and refuse to have sex with her.
The scenes of drunken mistakes in American dramas were all fake!
Even when drunk, Jasper still retained a sense of reason!
Moreover, when drunk, his senses were even more acute and sincere than when sober.
He actually directly stated that Stella was not Adeline.
Stella stood on the ground, gritting her teeth.
Was it going to end up benefiting Adeline like last time?
Stella closed her eyes, carefully weighing the pros and cons.
Jasper rarely got so drunk.
On such a perfect night, she didn't want to waste it.
After the party last time, although he had sex with Adeline when he woke up in the morning, he thought it was with Stella.
So, not only did Jasper not divorce her, but he also treated her better than before.
After careful consideration, Stella finally made a bold decision: Bring Adeline here.
Even if she couldn't have sex with Jasper temporarily, the favor after intimacy... Stella couldn't miss it.
Moreover, after Jasper and Adeline had sex, he wouldn't admit to being intimate with Adeline but would treat Stella even better...
Wasn't this the best way to sow discord between Adeline and Jasper?
With this in mind, Stella took a deep breath, secretly picked up Jasper's phone, and sent a message to Adeline with a 'self-destruct' function.
'Self-destruct' was a special function on Jasper's phone.
After the recipient read the message, it would automatically be destroyed.
This was a method often used by Jasper in his secret business dealings.
It not only avoided being caught but also kept secrets.
However, this function was only available on Jasper's phone.
At this moment, Adeline was in the children's room organizing things for Bennett and Lauren.
She had just put the two children to sleep.
Perhaps because they hadn't come to Blue Bay for a long time, the children's room was in a mess.
Lauren's design drawings and Bennett's toys were everywhere.
As Adeline organized Bennett's design drawings, she admired Lauren's latest jewelry design.
It had to be admitted that Lauren had inherited her love and talent for jewelry design. Although some of the designs were still immature, they already had her unique elements.
After tidying up, Adeline couldn't help but look through Lauren's design drawings again, adding some finishing touches to Laura's design drawings.
While admiring the design drawings, Adeline's phone rang.
It was a message from Jasper.
Jasper: [Come to the study.]
Adeline hesitated, subconsciously glanced at the time—it was already half past ten in the evening.
What did he want her to do in the study at this time?
Adeline: [It's too late, let's talk about it tomorrow.]
As soon as she sent the message, she received a reply from Jasper.
Jasper: [Tomorrow is too late, it's now, I have something urgent to tell you.]
Adeline paused.
Although reluctant, Jasper was still her boss.
Taking a deep breath, Adeline reluctantly got up, put on a coat over her pajamas, and stepped out of the children's room.
As soon as she left the children's room, she saw Stella coming out of the study.
The two women made eye contact.
Stella was momentarily stunned, then sneered, turned around, and banged the door to the master bedroom shut.
Adeline pursed her lips.
What drama was unfolding in the middle of the night now?
Did Jasper fight with Stella, so he asked her to discuss work?
They quarreled, and now she, a working person, was being dragged into it.
Sighing, she walked to the study door and lightly knocked.
No response from inside the room.
She furrowed her brows and knocked again, still no response.
Finally, she sighed and pushed open the study door. "Mr. Foster, you..."
Before she could finish her sentence, a figure rushed out from behind the door and hugged Adeline.
With a bang, the door behind them closed.
Feeling the familiar scent of Jasper behind her, Adeline furrowed her brows and instinctively lowered her voice, "Are you drunk?"
The room was filled with the smell of alcohol.
"Adeline."
Jasper kissed her earlobe from behind. "I miss you so much..."
