Chapter 201 Taking Risks

Feeling that hard, weird shape under my fingers just now, my heart nearly jumped out of my chest.

"Hey gorgeous, how are you feeling right now??"

Seth pulled me close, his mouth almost brushing my face.

I tried to play it cool, acting a bit tipsy. I gently pushed him away and sighed, "I feel terrible. I'm in such a bad mood!"

"Why the long face? Spill it," Seth said smoothly.

I didn't answer and glanced over at the dance floor.

Ethan and his partner were stealing the show. Ethan, with his good looks and grace, still managed to seem cold and distant.

Seth, thinking I was drunk, tried to make his move.

Seeing me staring at the dance floor, he asked, "What are you looking at?"

"I'm looking for my husband," I replied.

Seth looked taken aback for a second. "You have a husband? Where's he at?"

I shook my head sadly. "I haven't found him yet. He ditched me as soon as we got here."

Seth smirked, "Looks like he doesn't care much about you."

I bit my lip, looking all hurt.

"Tell me what's your husband look like? I'll help you find him." Seth puffed out his chest, acting all noble.

I glanced at Ethan in the middle of the dance floor and whispered, "He's really tall and super handsome."

"More handsome than me?" Seth sneered.
