“Seren.”
Jasmine immediately went to help Serenity up.
“I can still drink…”
Despite being held up, Serenity was mumbling away about having more drinks.
Looking at the state Serenity was in, Josh did not feel right to pull out his phone and take a video of her. Nevertheless, there was security surveillance in the place. He could pull the security footage and show it to Zachary.
Zachary married a wonderful wife but could do better at cherishing her. They often fought and got into silent wars while the people around him were dragged into the crossfire.
“You’re drunk, Serenity. I’ll take you home.”
Jasmine got up and said to Josh apologetically, “Serenity had too much to drink, Mr. Buchan. I’m going to take her home now.”
“I don’t think you can drive since you had something to drink too. I didn’t drink, so I can drive you home.”
As Josh came here for Jasmine, he did not have a drop of alcohol. He was looking for a chance to get Jasmine in his car.
“Thank you, Mr. Bucham, but we won’t be needing it. My brother can drive. I called him here to be the responsible driver and take us girls home. He didn’t and can’t drink. He has alcohol intolerance.”
Josh was speechless.
He came all this way, thinking he would be able to take Jasmine home and earn her favor.
Josh had it all planned out but failed to predict Drake had alcohol intolerance. He did not expect Drank to be the designated driver for the drunken girls.
He looked at the time. Zachary took a private plane here. He must be arriving soon.
“Let’s go home, Seren.”
Jasmine helped Serenity up.
Serenity kept murmuring, “I can still drink… I’m not drunk… The alcohol… must be fake…”
Josh was lost for words.
There was no way his brother’s bar sold fake alcohol.
No one would do anything to Serenity for saying that out loud. Neon Nights would not stand for anyone–except Serenity–who claimed their alcohol was a fake.
“You’re drunk. You won’t be able to wake up in the morning if you have more. Liberty will give you a good telling-off.”
