Chapter 191
Adam originally wanted to make a toast to Emma, but since Trevor drank Emma's wine and left him hanging there, he felt awkward. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Emma was also embarrassed. Trevor is really hateful.
Fortunately, Yvette stood up in time, smiled, and said to Adam, "I'll drink with you."
Yvette spoke in an intimate tone, which made Kaleb almost spit the wine in his mouth as he sat by the side. When he looked at Yvette in dissatisfaction, he saw that she had already clinked glasses with Adam and downed her wine.
Adam looked at Yvette gratefully for helping him out, while Yvette smiled back at him.
In Kaleb's eyes, the way the two interacted was flirtatious.
Emma didn't drink anymore because she didn't want to touch the glass that Trevor used. If it weren't for so many people, she wanted to throw a glass of wine at his face for being so rude.
Susanna sat with Emma, then she leaned over and whispered to her, "I have a hunch that Mr. Bateson and his friends are all the same type of men who only cherish women they lose. Look at Kaleb; he looks like he wants to tear Yvette into pieces. It's obviously the wrong method. How would a girl like to be treated like this? Also, I think that even if he pursues Dr. Spencer with all his heart, she will not necessarily be with him. As for Mr. Manson, the more cynical he is now, the more he will pay for it in the future."
Emma whispered, "Since when did you become an emotional expert?"
Susanna said, "There are so many love scenes that I've played, so I can naturally understand a lot of truth from them."
Over the years since her debut, she had played various roles, each of which had its own destiny. People said that life was like a movie. With the changes of each role, her temperament had also developed a lot.
Emma sighed softly and said, "Indeed, Kaleb is using the wrong method."
If Kaleb really still missed Yvette, it was absolutely impossible to win her back like this.
Susanna nodded and said, "Kaleb is not as thorough as Trevor's awareness on this point. Once Trevor was aware of his own heart, he began sincerely pursuing you to win you back."
Susanna hummed again and continued, "If Kaleb isn't completely aware, it's probably because he wasn't in enough pain."
The group of people partied until very late, and only Emma was awake in the end. Similarly, Trevor was also fine.
Adam's manager sent a car to pick him up, whereas Cerys and Yvette each called for a cab.
Meanwhile, Kaleb simply lay drunk on Trevor's couch. Zachary originally wanted to stay at Trevor's
place, but when he saw that Cerys had called for a cab, he got up and said he would go with her.
Susanna was so drunk that she was taken back to Emma's house next door. Trevor looked at Emma's back while she supported Susanna without looking back at him. He raised his hand and pinched his forehead.
She hadn't said a word to him since he drank her glass of wine. She was clearly angry, and he felt that everything was so challenging.
He didn't want Emma to drink that glass of wine with Adam, and he didn't want to see her interacting with the boy at all. As such, he grabbed her wine on the spot and drank it.
Now, he had to pay for his impulsiveness again.
Trevor went inside with a headache, thinking about how he should win Emma back tomorrow.
The next morning, Trevor was neatly dressed and ready to go to work. As soon as he went out, he saw a worker driving a truck parked in front of Emma's building next door, and there were several green plants on the vehicle.
Emma, her face fresh and clean, was signing the receipt at the door. Trevor walked over and asked, "Who gave this to you?"
Emma ignored him and continued to sign it.
Trevor then remembered that he had offended her last night, and she was still angry with him.
The worker on the side said to him with a smile, "These were given to Miss Yates by a certain Mr. Zurich. He said that his girlfriend had just moved to a new house and needed green plants to purify the air."
It was given by someone called Mr. Zurich? His girlfriend? It must be Wesley.
Trevor curled his lips into a sneer. Wesley is really pretentious. He's giving her some plants to purify the air, but he's only trying to find an opportunity to win Emma over. What a schemer! Even though he's not here, he hasn't left her world.
After Emma signed for the plants, she handed the receipt to the worker and said, "Please help me move them in, thank you."
Once she finished speaking, she planned to enter the house as if Trevor was not standing in front of her at all. Trevor had no choice but to stop her, looked down at her, and said calmly, "I'm sorry for last night."
Emma looked up at him and sneered. "Is an apology useful?"
Trevor was speechless. Emma was really tired of listening to his so-called apology, so she said that and went back into the house.
He knew that it was inappropriate to do that, but he still did it recklessly, which embarrassed her and Adam at the time. His apology after the matter could not make up for anything.
Trevor, who was left outside, took a deep breath and turned to leave.
Meanwhile, Susanna had drunk too much last night and was still sleeping in the bedroom upstairs.
Emma instructed the workers to place the plants downstairs, and then she called Wesley.
"Thank you for the plants you gave me. They're really handy." Emma hadn't contacted Wesley since she moved in yesterday, and Wesley must have learned from Adam and Susanna's news last night that they were eating together at a party.
Wesley said warmly, "I know that you don't have time to arrange for these things when you just moved there. If I can help you, I would be happy to."
Emma thought about it and explained to Wesley, "The few of us last night—"
"Emma, as I said, you don't need to explain anything to me. I believe you," said Wesley as he interrupted her just then.
Although Wesley believed her, when she suddenly thought of the scene where she and Trevor almost had sex that morning, she felt even more guilty.
Emma was only his girlfriend in name, but she didn't seem to be doing enough for Wesley at all. She really couldn't go on flirting with Trevor anymore.
Emma silently vowed in her heart that she must draw a clear line with Trevor.
Then, she asked about Wesley's mother's physical condition again, and he answered sadly, "It's still the same."
In other words, it was getting worse.
Chemotherapy had tortured his mother so badly, but he hid it all from Emma. He was already very grateful that Emma could promise to be his girlfriend in name to help his mother leave the world without regrets. He would not expect anything more from her.
Wesley added, "I will go back in a few days and start the filming of 'The Love Story of Imperial Consort Rose'.
Emma said worriedly, "But your mother—"
Wesley replied, "I will do my best to accompany her. Besides, she doesn't want me to stop all work. The preparatory work has already been done, so I can't let everyone wait for me."
Emma didn't say anything else.
