Let's Get Married

Chapter 683: Stand at the School Gate with Roses in Hand

It's common to see in the hospital that some families are happy while others are not. Eunice's condition is improving, yet Mr. Adonis’ illness is in the final countdown.

Karl is stuck in the middle, his nerves high-strung.

He feels that he has to give himself a day off, or his nerve will break.

Unlike before, he calls Pehry to have a drink in his club after work.

Pehry is glad to have him here. In a spotless private room, he prepares the best wine and the most expensive cigars, waiting for his arrival.

The gathering between brothers needs no more others. Karl looks at the empty room and said thoughtfully, "You don't have to worry about me. Call someone to accompany you if you want."

Pehry gives an unruly and playful chuckle. "No need. Playing every day weakens me."

Karl can't help but feel amused by his words. "You don't have to talk about it all day long. When the day comes, you'll know that you should watch your mouth!"

"Don't worry. I will be fine with a good brother like you!" Pehry pours him a glass of wine without mixing anything. "Why did you come for me today?"

When Pehry mentions it, Karl feels depressed and sighs, "Who else can I look for other than you? Rex's mood is even worse than mine recently."

"Right!" Pehry nods, "You're really a heartless man. Only when you don't have anyone around can you remember me."

"..."

Now that he regrets it, he should have returned home from work to sleep, instead of listening to his whining.

He is impulsive.

The beautiful crystal glasses clink. The dim yellow light above reflects a dazzling light on the neat section.

The man picks up the glasses to his lips. His sexy throat rolled before tipping his head back and drinking it. Without doing anything, it is already a sexy scene.

"What happened between you and Sally recently?" Pehry remembers what he saw on the WeChat Moments a few days ago. "She posted it on her Moments."

"Moments?" Karl is stupefied, not knowing what to say. "What Moments?"

Pehry takes out his phone and clicks on WeChat. Finding Sally's profile photo, he clicks on it and swipes up to the status the day before yesterday-

'Your own happiness matters the most. To please others, they may not appreciate your kindness. It's better to use the time worrying about others to take care of yourself.'

At the end of the words, a smiling face is added. It is not in a good mood but ironic.

Karl checks his phone but doesn't find this.

Pehry is delighted to look at his gloomy face. "She blocks you?"

"Piss off." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Karl, you've offended her. It won't be easy to coax her...."

Blocking him on Moments hurts his self-esteem. How annoying he could be that she even curses him without letting him see it?

Pehry feels sorry for him.

"She has been complaining about me for a while now. At that time, I happened to be busy. Though I wanted to accompany her, the situation didn't allow it. Because I ignored her, she got angry." Karl says as he takes a big sip from his glass. "I am depressed about having too many things to do. To meet her could only end up with a quarrel.

Pehry nods. "That makes sense, but I still feel pity for you."

"???"

Receiving someone's murderous gaze, Pehry admits that he is scared. "Come on. Forget what I said. Didn't I just watch you being unhappy and deliberately tease you? Don't worry. Isn't this how women are? They are temperamental, and it's hard to fathom them."

"You know quite well, don't you?"

"Of course. I'm the very lady killer." Pehry doesn't feel embarrassed at all and boasts with pride.

Karl can't bear to see him like this and teases, "If you are so capable, why can't you handle a student girl?"

Pehry takes a strawberry from the fruit tray and is about to put it into his mouth. He is frozen at the words, as if a cat whose tail is stepped on. He almost jumps to his feet. "What student girl? You guys mention it every day. When did I say it?"

"You didn't, but you are secretly chasing after her, right?"

"No!" Pehry refuses to admit it. If he does, he won't have the face to see them.

"Didn't you run to her schools all day long?"

"When will I ... sigh?" Pehry suddenly feels that something is wrong. "How did you know that I went to her school?"

"Have a guess."

Pehry is covered in a cold sweat. He has a feeling that he has been monitored for a long time without knowing it. "How can I know? Could you be so bored and ask someone to monitor me?"

"Am I as idle as you?" Karl glared at him. "Rex happened to see you at her school. He said that you were holding a bouquet of fiery red roses at the school gate."

"..."

Pehry's face is a little hot. Thinking that he tried to please her but failed the other day, he is anxious and mad.

Anxious as he is, he still needs to save face. Adjusting his posture, he says, "You don't know how happy she was after receiving the flowers. Women will be women. Her body is more honest than her words. She wanted to come back to the club with me at that time, but I refused!"

Karl chuckles without saying anything to debunk his lie. It is hard for Pehry to meet a woman he likes. He has better not discourage him.

They chat for a long time and don't need to worry too much while drinking. Karl drinks a lot at the beginning. After all, he can indulge himself as he has a day off tomorrow. In the end, he restrains himself a little bit.

He will stop drinking when he feels drunk, while Pehry is the opposite. The more he drinks, the happier he becomes. He can't help but drink a lot.

Thus, in the end, Karl is still sober, and Pehry is drunk.

He is drunk but still insists on walking Karl out of the door. Winfred helps him to the door and watches Karl drive his Land Rover away.

"Mr. Pehry, he's gone. Shall we go in?"

Unexpectedly, Pehry suddenly becomes excited and says, "No!"

Winfred feels like weeping but has no tears. "Where are you going?"

"Go ... Go?" He says several times in a row. Just as everyone thinks that he won't know anything, he finally yells, "Go to Jasmine's school!"

Winfred is dumbstruck.

Same as the bodyguards.

Everyone looks at each other and mutters in their hearts, "We should have thought of it a long time ago. We should have thought of it a long time ago ... No one noticed Miss Jasmine when she worked here. But after she leaves, she becomes the focus."

As for the reason, that is because her school has already become the place Pehry visits every day. To their surprise, they can't escape the fate of going there today.
