Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 220

Everett brushed off his hand without even glancing his way, continuing to down his drinks. He had a stomach condition, and drinking like this was a one-way ticket to the hospital. If anything happened to him here, Jaime feared he'd have both Everett and Josh gang up on him as payback. Jaime wasn't exactly a powerhouse. He could not stop Everett, so he just grumbled, "Bro, you're my only friend. Can you chill for a bit? You're harder to handle than all my girlfriends put together!"

Everett shot him a frosty look and finally said, "Either shut up and drink with me or get lost."

Jaime was at a loss. He knew this was beyond him and figured it was time to call in reinforcements.

Scratching his chin, he cautiously suggested, "How about I call Selena to take you home?"

Whenever Everett had too much to drink, he always preferred Selena to come and get him. She never seemed to mind, either.

Jaime wasn't sure what the spat was about this time, but as folks say, couples argue at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of it. Most issues could be resolved with a bit of passion. Or maybe a lot.

Hearing this, Everett paused, his eyes growing even colder. With a sardonic smile, he said, "She'd probably be thrilled if I never came back."
