The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 697

Walter fell and hurt his b*ttock.

"How did you walk? Watch out from me!"

He was d*mn furious. He jumped up and was going to fight with the person.

"What are you doing here, Walter?"

At this moment, a melodic and lilting voice sounded, which stopped Walter immediately.

He saw both Genevieve and Mango standing and staring at him when he turned around. The person who had just spoken was Genevieve.

Walter was in great astonishment.

Weren't they supposed to arrive the next day?

So what made them arrive earlier than expected?

Furthermore, why were they at this club?

Novalee was delighted to meet Mango here, and she happily ran to her. "You're here, Ms. Shen? Didn't you say that you would arrive by tomorrow?"

Mango smiled at her and then walked forward to the man who was knocked down by Walter. She bowed apologetically to him.

"I'm sorry."

She gestured in apology.

Walter suddenly felt uneasy.

"It's my fault, Mango. I will apologize for my mistake."

He immediately pulled her away.

Genevieve was kind of annoyed when she saw his overprotective nature towards Mango.

Of course, so was Mango.

She pushed Walter away and made a gesture to the man. "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong. This is my friend. Nice to meet you here."

She reached out her hand to Maxton.

Maxton smiled and said, "It's okay. This gentleman is quite aggressive. Since he's your friend, I will forgive him. Let's talk inside."

"Sure."

Mango nodded her head. Happily, she led him and Genevieve to the private room she had booked.

On the other hand, Walter seemed to be neglected.

He couldn't stand that the person who ignored him was Mango, and his heart was consumed by jealousy.

"Hey, count me in."

He was about to follow them but was locked outside by Mango.

"How dare you, Mango..."

Walter intended to break into the room, but when he recalled how Mango treated Mr. Zhong and how Genevieve was there as well, he calmed himself.

Perhaps they were here to talk about Mango's voice?

Walter kept himself calm. Novalee felt sorry for him when she caught a glimpse of hurt on his face.

"Would you like to have a drink?"

Novalee suggested him.

Walter looked at her and said, "You can't afford the wine I want."

That was the truth, but it hurt Novalee.

"Beer can make you drunk too. Don't tell me that you can only get drunk on Lafite."

Walter was clearly not in the mood.

To be honest, he was sad when Mango ignored him.

This was the bad thing about love. Any small action from the person you fancied would hurt you terribly.

He was reluctant to leave, but it didn't look good for him to wait around. Hence, he agreed to go with Novalee.

"Okay, I'll give you a chance to buy me a treat."

He eventually took a seat in the lobby.

Novalee knew that he wasn't in a good mood, so she did not fuss over his impolite actions. Just then, she asked the waiter to get them a case of beer and said to Walter, "Cheers!"

"Are we doing shots?"

He did not intend to bully Novalee, but he just wanted to drown his sorrows in beer. Moderate drinking couldn't get rid of his bad mood.

Novalee didn't say anything either. However, she bottomed up her beer without hesitation.

Then, she turned the empty bottle upside down. Her unrestrained character pleased Walter instantly.

"Woah, I like that!"

Walter was no slouch, and he drank one whole bottle in one gulp as well.

They didn't talk to each other as they downed multiple bottles. Soon, empty bottles were surrounding the table.

After that, Novalee burped uncomfortably. Then, she said, "I am going to the restroom."

"Be careful, don't go into the wrong room."

However, Novalee had already left.

Now, Walter was left drinking alone.

He found it so boring the more he drank.

Then, the door opened. Walter looked up and saw Zendaya walking in instead of Mango.

Zendaya was dazed for a second.

She recalled what she saw earlier, and she had wondered if it was Walter. Now, she was pleased to see him drinking alone.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Song. What makes you here again? Shall I drink with you?”

"Get lost!"

Walter was in a bad mood, and he didn't even try to be nice to her.
