Chapter 189 Ouch, You Hurt Me
Lotus nodded immediately and answered, “No problem, I’ll handle it here. CEO, you can go ahead.”
Jason nodded and reached out to support Alta’s shoulder, preparing to leave.
However, Alta struggled and said, “I’m not going! My head feels dizzy…”
Jason felt speechless.
Looking at the restless woman, he instantly remembered the last time Alta got drunk and scolded him.
Last time, there was no one around except Eaton.
But this time was different. If this woman publicly called him a scumbag…
It would probably be hard to end.
Jason’s face darkened, not wanting to witness such a situation.
Without hesitation, he lifted Alta up by the waist.
As she suddenly lost her balance, Alta instinctively exclaimed and subconsciously clung to Jason’s neck.
Her breath was warm as she asked, “What… what are you doing?”
“Taking you back.”
Jason replied with a hint of imperceptible helplessness in his tone.
Upon hearing this, Alta immediately became guarded. She shook her head and said, “I won’t!”
“Who do you think you are? Put me down! Don’t touch me! I’m not going with you…’
Realizing that the woman was quite intoxicated, Jason just wanted to take her away as soon as possible.
However, he didn’t expect that after taking only a few steps, the person in his arms started to struggle.
Alta kept pushing and wriggling, protesting with her body. Her legs kicked about within his hold. She pouted and continued, “My Lucas told me that when we’re away from home, we should protect ourselves and beware of bad people! So, I’m not going with you… Let go of me.”
Seeing her desperately struggling, the others who were still sober were stunned.
The usually composed and stunning Ms. Rogers was acting like a child when drunk?
Jason felt a headache coming on. He was about to say something to persuade her, but Alta’s movements were too intense. Without paying attention, he accidentally let go of her and ended up falling onto the sofa behind him. Alta in turn landed on his lap.
Everyone was dumbfounded, secretly swallowing their saliva. Their gazes toward Alta were filled with admiration.
She was definitely the first person to sit on the CEO’s lap!
Alta, who was dropped like that, couldn’t react at all.
She stared blankly at the person in front of her. Her face filled with confusion, like she had been dumbfounded by the fall.
Jason couldn’t help but laugh at her actions and said, “If your have that kind of awareness, you wouldn’t have ended up like this from drinking.”
“And also, who is the bad person?”
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth. He pinched Alta’s chin and said word by word, “Open your eyes wide and take a good look at who I am, hmm?”
Alta struggled to focus her gaze and stared at him.
This nose was attractive, the eyes were beautiful, and the face was handsome…
But why did they seem to overlap and appear blurry when put together?
She couldn’t help but raise her hand and cup Jason’s face.
After a long while, she finally managed to see clearly. She said in a muddled voice, “You’re… Jason!”
Jason peeled off the small hand on his face and said coldly, “Now that you’ve seen clearly, that’s good.”
“Humph…”
Alta’s tone was somewhat resentful as she said, “Jason is not a good person either.”
Jason’s gaze darkened, feeling quite displeased. He increased the force on her chin and asked coldly, “Who is a good person then?”
Although Alta was drunk, she still vaguely sensed the dangerous atmosphere in his words. Instinctively seeking benefits and avoiding harm, she quickly changed her tune and obediently said, “Jason is a good person.”
After saying that, she looked pitiful and a thin layer of mist appeared in her eyes. Her voice became softer as she said, “Ouch, you hurt me with your grip…”
Feeling wronged, she reached out with a hint of pleading. She encircled Jason’s shoulder and snuggled up to him intimately, saying, “Don’t be angry anymore…
The last sentence carried a touch of coquetry.
Lotus was caught off guard by this sudden display of affection and her expression was astonished. She couldn’t help but think to herself, “Impressive, my Alta!”
That sweet voice and the previous display of coquettishness!
Who could resist it?
Not only her, but everyone else’s eyes were about to fall out.
They deeply felt that they were being overwhelmed by all this affection!
At this point, no one believed that there was nothing going on between these two.
While everyone’s thoughts were varied, Jason didn’t expect Alta to react like this. The annoyance he had just felt dissipated in an instant, and his hand completely relaxed.
Unconsciously, he softened his voice and said, “Then be obedient.”
Alta nodded obediently. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Jason breathed a sigh of relief, then carried her again and left in big strides.
After the two left, everyone snapped out of their daze.
Lotus was still staring at the door, thinking to herself, “They really look like a married couple!”
Someone muttered, “Is it too late to curry favor with Alta now?”
Hearing her colleague’s words, Lotus felt a sense of satisfaction. She thought to herself, “I’m smart. I’ve already secured my position!”
On the way home, Alta remained quiet. It was unlike last time when she was acting crazy in the car while drunk.
She sat in the back seat, resting her small face against the car window with her eyes closed. Her long eyelashes, illuminated by the lights, fluttered like two butterflies about to take flight.
Jason stared at her for a long time.
Upon arriving at the Spring Villa, he carried her and rang the doorbell.
It was already late at this hour. The two little ones and their grandparents at home were already asleep.
Naturally, it was Daisy who came to open the door.
Seeing Alta’s slightly flushed face and dazed look, Daisy had gained some experience.
She let Jason in and said, “Mr. Hill, you can just place Ms. Rogers on the sofa.”
“Okay.”
Jason nodded and put her down. He helped her elevate her legs so that she would be more comfortable lying down.
Daisy found a small blanket and covered Alta with it. Then she greeted, “Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Hill. Would you like to sit for a while?”
As she said that, she went to find a cup and prepared to pour tea for Jason.
“No need, just take care of her. I’ll leave now,” Jason replied.
Daisy set down the cup and said, “Alright, let me see you off.”
Jason nodded. He turned around and prepared to leave.
However, as he passed by the coffee table, unintentionally noticed a stack of calligraphy scrolls on it.
Initially, he didn’t pay much attention.
But when his gaze fell on the handwriting, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. He stopped in his tracks and stared at it.
After a while, Jason’s eyes grew deep and he approached to confirm once again.
This handwriting… It looked extremely similar to Nina’s!
It could practically be said to be identical!
Jason couldn’t help but furrow his brow. With a slightly serious tone, he asked, “Who wrote this?”
Daisy sensed something was amiss and hesitated for a moment. She felt that it wouldn’t be right if she didn’t say anything.
Finally, she honestly replied, “This was written by Ms. Rogers’s daughter, my Little Miss.”
Daughter?
Jason couldn’t help but squint his eyes as his thoughts surged.
This seemed too coincidental. Alta’s daughter also knows calligraphy, and the handwriting is so similar. It was truly a coincidence that couldn’t help but arouse suspicion…
