Chapter 1494 Getting Drunk

As soon as these words escaped Mona's lips, the surrounding vibe suddenly turned as silent as the grave.

Mona looked at Scott intently as she nervously waited for his answer.

Scott pursed his lips slightly before he breathed out a gentle sigh. "Mona, you should know that my current plan is to focus on my music, right?" he politely turned Mona down.

Mona curled the corner of her mouth into a wry smile. "I know you only have music on your mind, but I still want to give it a try. After all, I have been chasing by your side for two years."

Meanwhile, in the banquet hall, Timothy, who had successfully proposed, took Sabrina's hand and approached Tessa. "Tess, it's getting late. I plan to send Sabrina home."

"Are you sure it's because it's late? Or is it because you think about spending some alone time with Sabrina?" Tessa looked at Timothy and Sabrina teasingly.

Sabrina instantly flushed crimson under the mischievous look in Tessa's eyes. Hence, she stomped her feet and complained, "Tess."

Tessa laughed at her reaction. Still, she stopped teasing them further and waved them goodbye.

As they left, the banquet was coming to an end as well.

Tessa held Nicholas as she saw her teachers, relatives, and friends off before they also decided to retire for the night.

Alas, just when they walked out of the hotel, Tessa's phone rang. It was a call from Mona.

"Tessa, can you come and have a drink with me?" Mona's voice sounded distressed on the phone.


Tessa's heart sank. Judging from Mona's tone, she could tell that her confession didn't end on a good note.

She didn't hesitate to agree. So, she asked, "Where are you? Send me your location, and I will be there soon."

With that, Mona gave an address before she hung up the phone.

Nicholas noticed the worried look on Tessa's face and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"Mona asked me to accompany her for a drink. I think she was rejected," Tessa frankly voiced her speculation and told Nicholas what she had promised Mona at the same time.

Nicholas nodded in understanding. "I will drop you off. You can accompany her but try not to drink too much."

"Thanks, darling." Tessa tiptoed and kissed Nicholas' good-looking side profile affectionately.

Tessa rushed to the bar where Mona was in less than 10 minutes.

Since she was wearing a pair of sunglasses and the lights in the bar were extremely dim, no one recognized her.

She swept her gaze across the bar and finally found Mona drinking alone in a corner.

At this moment, there were already three empty wine bottles on the table in front of Mona.

"Mona, are you okay?" Tessa sat down and looked at her good friend with worried eyes.

Mona, who was a little tipsy, raised her head in a daze and said dejectedly, "Tessa, you're here."

Although she had her attention on Tessa, she still tried to pour herself another drink with wobbly hands.

Tessa instantly noticed Mona's already drunken gaze, so she hurriedly stretched out her hand and stopped Mona from imbibing more alcohol. "Stop drinking. You will get drunk if you keep drinking."

Mona was silent for a moment before she said in a dispirited voice, "But my heart aches if I stop."

Mono wos silent for o moment before she soid in o dispirited voice, "But my heort oches if I stop."

When Tesso heord Mono's words, she wos even more certoin thot her guess wos right on the money.

Just os she wos wrocking her broin obout how to console Mono, Mono slurred, "I thought obout it oll ofternoon. I felt thot whot you soid wos right. It would be nothing but o woste of my time if I continued stoying by his side silently without doing onything. So, I mustered up my couroge ond confessed to him eorlier."

Then, she poused for o moment os her lips curled into o bitter smile. She held in o sob ond continued, "He rejected me, soying thot he wosn't interested in onything but music for the time being."
