Roxanne was worried about leaving Archie and Benny at home, but Madilyn assured her that she had informed Lysa beforehand.
Soon, both ladies were standing outside the entrance of a bar, and Roxanne followed Madilyn impetuously.
Madilyn was clearly a regular at the bar. As soon as they stepped in, an employee immediately greeted them and led them to a booth near the dance floor.
Pulsating music blared as well-dressed men and women gyrated on the dance floor. Roxanne found herself slowly letting loose in the electric atmosphere.
“Drinks are on me tonight. Let's drink our fill!” Madilyn yelled in her ear.
Then, she ordered a bottle of alcohol worth ten thousand and poured a glass for Roxanne. “There are plenty more fishes in the sea. Let's not get hung up on one!”
Roxanne accepted the glass and clinked it with Madilyn's, tossing back her drink in one gulp.
Madilyn cracked a satisfied smile at
Roxanne's bold attitude.
She had drunk with Roxanne a few times when they were in university. Though Roxanne may look well-behaved, she could surely hold her liquor very well.
Madilyn had mentally prepared herself to throw in her lot with Roxanne tonight just to lift her spirits.
Roxanne downed a few more glasses, and she started to loosen up, putting the day's problems on the back burner.
Madilyn wasn't contented with only drinking, so she slammed her glass down on the table and seized Roxanne's hand. “Let's dance!”
Then, she dragged her to the dance floor without waiting for a response.
