“For example… marrying you?” Max probed. “But I know you’ll never marry Chester.”
Charity laughed. “If marrying me is a way of atoning for his wrongdoings, that’s not atonement at all.
That’s allowing him to continue enjoying life. Don’t worry. There’s no way he and I will be together.”
“Alright. I was just asking.”
On the other end of the all, Max grinned.
After hanging up, a comrade in his team walked over and bumped onto his shoulder. “What an enticing smile. Were you talking to your childhood sweetheart again?” ’
Max glanced at him and did not reply.
“Hey, how long has it been? Haven’t you successfully confessed yet?” That comrade winked and glanced downward. “Are you impotent?”
Max’s face instantly darkened. “I’ll use my fists to show you whether I’m potent or not.”
“…I was kidding.”
Everyone knew about Max’s abnormal skills, so that comrade took two steps back. “I’m doing this for your own good. It’s better to confess earlier. If not, do you really plan on being ‘sisters’ with her for the rest of your life?”
Max sighed depressedly. “You don’t understand. She doesn’t like me, and I’m afraid we can’t even be friends if I confess.”
“Mm, okay. If so, you can secretly watch over her.
When she meets a suitable person, you can give her a wedding gift.” The comrade patted Max’s shoulder. “ Good luck.”
Why did he feel so upset?
Chester did not go to the company or the hospital for the following two days.
Whether it was the superiors of the company or people from the hospital, they were all going crazy from looking for him everywhere. He was not picking up calls either.
At 12:00 a.m., Ken found Chester in a very ordinary bar.
When he saw Chester, disbelief flashed across his eyes.
That was probably his first time seeing Chester looking so unkempt.
His beard was stubbly, his hair was slightly messy, he was not wearing his glasses, and the rims of his eyes were red.
If Ken did not go nearer to take a closer look, he would not have recognized that he was the handsome, flirty Doctor Jewell and President Jewell.
At that moment, Chester was drunk.
“Are you his friend?” The bartender said, “Quickly take him back. He’s been drinking alcohol for water for two nights in a row now. Something will happen if he continues drinking.”
“Thanks.” Ken paid the bill. When he turned back, he realized Chester was already walking outside groggily.
“President Jewell, wait for me.”
Ken went after him. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Don’t touch me.” Chester flung his hand away. After walking out of the bar, he threw up. There was even blood mixed in his vomit.
Shocked, Ken immediately called for an ambulance.
After sending Chester to the hospital, the doctor said he was bleeding internally because he had drunk too much.
When the nurse was putting Chester on the IV drip, the drunk Chester grabbed the nurse’s hand and murmured, “Charity… Charity…”
The nurse recognized Chester.
After all, Chester was the most outstanding young doctor in the hospital. However, he was too out of reach to people like her. Moreover, he was usually in a white coat, looking handsome and elegant. Never had she seen him as drunk as he was now.
However, no matter how disheveled Chester’s handsome face was, he still looked good. His wasted look at that moment could even make people blush.
Ken hastily pulled Chester’s hand away and reminded the nurse to insert the needle.
The nurse quickly returned to her senses and inserted the IV needle for Chester.
When she left, she heard Chester muttering hoarsely, “Charity… I’m sorry… I’m truly sorry…” ‘Charity?’
‘Is that a girl’s name?’
The nurse found it puzzling.
