The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 584

Hailey wanted to bet on it-to see if she still had a place in his heart.

If she didn't, then she would finally give up on him.

"Yes, I have a boyfriend!" she declared.

"Who is he?"

"That's none of your business. All you need to know is that he's taller than you, more handsome than you. I really like him, and he really likes me too!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

"Mr. Carter, looks like this young lady is already taken."

"Mr. Carter, it seems like you've lost this time."

Ronald sneered. "You're lying to me, aren't you? Where is this so-called boyfriend of yours? If he'd really get jealous about you drinking with me, then why would he let you come to a place like this in the first place? That just proves he doesn't care about you at all!"

With that, he lifted a glass of alcohol. "Come on, beautiful, have a drink with me. If you really have a boyfriend, he'll show up!"

He brought the glass to Hailey's lips, ready to pour the wine down her throat.

Hailey struggled, trying to push him away. "Let me go! Don't touch me! I don't want to drink!"

Some of the alcohol spilled from the glass, soaking her clothes and leaving her looking disheveled.
