I see. Dustin heaved a sigh of relief.
Given that Nancy was dead drunk, Joan had no choice but to bring Nancy back to her house.
After carrying Nancy into the room, Dustin sat on the couch in the living room. Then, he stared at the ceiling and panted for air.
How much alcohol did Nancy have? Why did she become so heavy?
“Well, you can go now. Everything's fine,” Joan said to Dustin straightforwardly.
Are you abandoning me after using me?
Dustin glanced at Joan.
“Shouldn't you treat me to some food as a token of appreciation?” Dustin whined.
After all, I was the one who picked you guys up!
“It's fine. I think you should go home because it's getting late,” Joan asked him to leave directly.
Actually, Joan knew what Dustin had on his mind: he wanted to wait for Larry so that he could claim credit and asked for some rewards from Larry.
Ever since Dustin slept in the same room with Larry, he went to Larry's company nearly every day. The colleagues would probably doubt Larry's sexual orientation if they didn't know Joan.
“I'm not leaving. I've to wait for Larry,” Dustin murmured.
This jerk dares speak his mind!
“Dustin, I think we have to talk.” Joan gazed at Dustin, who was sitting on the couch.
“Sure,” Dustin replied nonchalantly.
“Well, you and Larry are always together lately. Given that both of you are men, I'm afraid the colleagues would have misunderstandings if they always see you guys together,” Joan said cautiously.
What's wrong with it?That only proves that Larry and I are good friends. That's alllBesides, I only want to joke around with Larry He definitely doesn't have a different sexual orientation.
“Joan, what nonsense are you talking about? The friendship between Larry and I is pure, and the innocent have nothing to fear!” Dustin yelled.
How pure is it? Joan continued sizing Dustin up with a suspicious look.
