Chapter 99
“Drink until I am pleased,” he said.
She bit her lips and looked down. Her gaze fixed on the glass of wine in his hand. The indoor light shone on her face, and there was an indescribable beauty on her fluttering eyelashes.
“Are you afraid I will take advantage of you when you’re drunk? If I want a woman, there are many ways to do it, not so much as to use this method. No one dares to say anything, even if I sleep with you right now.” He spoke as if he could read her mind.
Rosalie mocked herself inwardly, “He was right. I shouldn’t have thought so much.”
She took the glass of wine and drank it.
The wine went down the throat. It was bitter and sweet.
She wasn’t much of a drinker. She mostly drank champagne when she drank to socialize for work back in the day.
As she was Zachary’s girlfriend back then, no one would force her to drink.
Rosalie drank the second glass without hesitation after Jonathan poured more wine into her glass.
She drank the wine one after the other as if it were medicine. She continued to drink the wine to please him.
On the other hand, he smiled the entire time as if it was a great pleasure to watch her drink like this.
Rosalie only felt like her mind was a little jumbled after drinking so much. Her hands and feet were getting more and more out of control, and even her voice began to stammer.
“You should drink too… When her wine glass was once again filled with red wine, she staggered and handed it to him, grinning.
He could tell she was drunk by her behavior.
He had seen her drunk once before. This time, however, it was completely different,
At the time, he was irritated that someone else was also interested in his game target.
Now… he was captivated by her every expression. Even if he knew she was drunk now, her smile and what she said didn’t make sense, but he still couldn’t help replying. “Do you want me to drink it?”
She nodded firmly “Yes Drinking alone… is so boring. Would you like to drink with me?”
He was surprised and thought. “She’ll never speak in such a coquettish tone when she’s sober.”
“Say it again. Repeat what you just said” He gently moved his finger across her lips.
“Would
you like to drink with me… she muttered, staring at him as if her eyes were stained with scarlet.
“Okay…” He spat out the word gently. He didn’t even realize his tone was pampering.
Jonathan took the wine glass from Rosalie and drank it.
Her smile became brighter and brighter. She picked up the bottle, poured herself a glass of wine, and was about to drink it. This time, Jonathan reached out to stop her. “Rosie, you are drunk. You don’t need to drink anymore.”
“No need… to drink anymore?” she murmured, looking drunk.
“That’s right. You don’t need to drink it anymore,” he replied.
“But…” She tilted her head and felt as if she had forgotten something. After a long time, she suddenly said as if she remembered something, “Jon, will you let go of Uncle Daniel and the rest?”
She finally finished the sentence intermittently.
“I will,” he replied. After all, it was something he had promised to do. He had seen her drunk, so it was only natural that he should fulfill her wish and set those people free.
He took the glass of wine from her and drank it again.
Jonathan thought, “She must be drunk, or she wouldn’t have called me Jon.”
He didn’t realize how much he enjoyed hearing her call him “Jon” softly. Her tone made him feel as if someone was always Waiting for him in the dark.
She smiled sweetly again as if she had completed the task. Then, she hugged Jonathan with her arms around his neck. “Jon, L.. I’m sleepy. I’d like to… sleep…”
She muttered and then fell asleep in his arms.

He lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms blankly.
When she was awake, she was very alert toward him. But when she fell asleep, she let go of all guard against him.
“Rosie, you do look cuter when you’re drunk,” he murmured, gently brushing the hair off her cheek.
Her checks were flushed because of drinking, and her mesmerizing eyes were closed. He could see more clearly on her slightly curled eyelashes, small nose, and delicate lips, all of which looked so appealing.
As if to further prove the point, his heartbeat seemed to beat a little faster.
Jonathan lowered his gaze and slowly took the coat he had set aside. He draped it around her. Then he picked her up and walked straight out of the private room.
She slept peacefully with her face buried in his arms. When they arrived at the parking lot, Carlos was already waiting there and opened the door respectfully.
Jonathan carried Rosalie into the car.
Two people walked toward the parking lot not far away. Calvin was taken aback by this scene.
It seemed that Jonathan had a partner. Jonathan appeared to be very fond of the woman based on how carefully he carried
her in the car,
Loretta was with Calvin when they witnessed the scene. She, on the other hand, had a different thought than Calvin.
Although she didn’t notice Jonathan’s expression as he carried her, the woman’s shoes… She recalled that Rosalie seemed to have a similar pair of shoes.
Loretta wondered, “Could it be… the woman Jonathan was carrying… Is that Rosalie?”
Thinking of the scene in which Rosalie and Jonathan were together in the rental home, Loretta felt uneasy.
Loretta followed Calvin into the car after Jonathan’s car had exited the parking lot.
“Calvin, I was just thinking… Is that Mr. Jonathan Youngblood?” Loretta asked deliberately.
“Yeah, it’s him,” Calvin replied indifferently.
“Then… Do you know who the woman he was carrying is?” she continued to ask.
He turned slightly and looked at Loretta. “What’s wrong? Are you curious? If you’re curious, ask him the next time you see him.”
Loretta was at a loss for words. Of course, she didn’t dare to do so. She forced a smile and replied, “I was just curious. Just a random question.
