Chapter 67: Mr. Cohen, You Don't Look Right

In the midst of Jared and Tina's mutual probing, the car drove into Pinkwater Alley. By the time Tina arrived home, Logan and Sophia were already there, accompanied by Hayden. Tina glanced at Hayden, then turned her gaze to Jared, "You paid for four people's living expenses, why have five people come?"

Before Jared could speak, Hayden said with a playful grin, "Chick, don't be so stingy. I'm just here for a free meal, and besides, I bought a gift. The cost of the gift should surely cover the expense of a meal at your place."

Tina stared at him. Chick? Stingy? Very well! She composed herself and spoke earnestly, "Mr. Cohen, I see a sign of impending bloodshed on you today. I suggest you eat some garlic to ward off the evil spirits." Hayden took a sip from his cup, laughing, "You're too funny, Miss Reed. I never realized you were such a... Bang!" Before he could finish his sentence, the glass shattered in his hand.

Hayden's eyes widened in shock. "Damn, you've got to be kidding me?"

The others in the room were equally startled, staring blankly at Hayden.

"Wow, Tina girl, you're amazing!" Logan exclaimed as he stood up, looking at the shattered glass on the floor. "Hayden, you better do as Tina girl says, eat the garlic!"

Logan was the oldest and the only one among them who revered the spiritual. Their generation often believed in the existence of unseen forces. Although they had never witnessed them, they preferred to err on the side of belief rather than disbelief.

Now, having seen Hayden's cup shatter without warning, Logan was even more convinced of the spiritual world's existence.

Hayden, "... Mr. Farrell, it's just a glass cup. Maybe the water was too hot and damaged the glass. It broke just as I picked it up. She's talking nonsense, and you believe her?"

"Tsk tsk tsk!" Mr. Farrell spat dismissively, "You shouldn't speak so carelessly. Some things deserve our respect. Hurry up and do as Tina girl says."

Hayden, with three black lines on his forehead, protested, "If I eat that garlic, my mouth will stink. I won't eat it."

He thought Tina was poisonous. Was it necessary to curse him just for crashing a meal? Now, he was being forced by Mr. Farrell to eat garlic!

He was truly aggrieved.
