Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 484

"How many dates has he had?" Tina asked, popping an almond into her mouth, her interest clearly piqued.

His friend was firm. "Not once. You're his first."

"Come on," Tina scoffed, disbelieving. At thirty, how could he not have had a single relationship?

"He seems pretty experienced to me."

Carrying a woman's heels as if it was second nature.

"If you're talking business, sure, he's got experience. But love? Please, haha."

Phillip's friends were sharp, knowing exactly what to say and what not to, presenting a facade of openness yet revealing nothing when it came to his romantic past.

Tina, knowing when to back off, smoothly changed the subject with a smile.

Phillip's friends had made a good impression on her. She enjoyed drinking, and with the right company, she found herself even more delighted. So, by the end of the night, she was slightly tipsy.

Phillip offered her a steadying arm as they headed to the door. She wobbled and waved goodbye to the others, nearly missing a step down the stairs.

Phillip instinctively wrapped an arm around her waist, guiding her to the car.

As he reached to open the car door, her balance wavered—or perhaps she just couldn't be bothered to stand on her own—leaning heavily into him.

She grabbed his tie, calling him "my dear fiancé..."

Phillip looked down at her.

Her eyes were bright yet hazy, glints of light dancing in her glossy gaze, her lips parting to release the sweet scent of alcohol against his jaw.
