Chapter 136 Pretending To Be Drunk

Rose nudged Jonathan's arm, trying to push away the arm and body pressing on her. However, each attempt failed.

For a second, she suspected that he was doing it intentionally, but his eyes were closed, and the alcoholic scent lingered in his breath. He seemed genuinely drunk.

After a few more attempts, Rose gave up. Instead, she closed her eyes, and it wasn't long before she fell asleep. When her breathing evened out, Jonathan finally dared to open his eyes.

His eyes were clear and bright, showing no signs of insobriety. He was just pretending to be drunk. It seemed like this was the only way he could stay by her side.
