Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1088

Charlie sped off in his car, with Jonathan closely following behind. Caught by a red light, Jonathan lost track of Charlie, only to find him later in a room at the Midnight Bar.

Two bottles of booze were laid out before Charlie. He looked gloomy, raised his head to look at Jonathan and cracked a smile, "Why the chase? Come to watch me make a fool of myself?"

Jonathan plopped down across from him, poured himself a drink, and said, "You've got the hots for Emily, don't you? Otherwise, why would you give a damn about her getting hitched and popping out a kid?"

Charlie was taken aback, picked up his drink, and didn't utter a word.

Did he really have a thing for Emily? He should be hating her guts!

Jonathan poured him another drink, "You're not mad at me, are you?"

"Mad at you for what?" Charlie raised an eyebrow.

"I knew about Kya being Emily's kid all along. But Estelle had me zip my lips, so I didn't spill the beans to you."

Charlie let out a sarcastic laugh, "So, in your book, I'm not even close to Estelle."

Jonathan shrugged nonchalantly, "Well, duh!"

Charlie gritted his teeth, "Don't forget, when you hit rock bottom, I was the one who stuck by you!"

Jonathan nodded, "That's why I'm here keeping you company."

Charlie turned his head away, not wanting to chat.

Jonathan chuckled, "If you're really into Emily, go after her. Drowning your sorrows won't do squat!"

"Same goes for you!" Charlie shot back, "But you're barking up the wrong tree. Why would I chase after a divorcee with a kid?"

Jonathan shrugged, "Fair enough, forget about her then. Emily's mom will get better soon, and she'll head back to Oakdale City anyway."
