Chapter 716: Violent Man


    Elizabeth hurriedly answered the phone.


    "Where are you?"


    Jorge''s anxious voice sounded from the other end of the line.


    "Why aren''t you home yet? I''ve been waiting for you for half an hour!"


    "I''m having dinner with my friends at the Riverside Restaurant.I''ll be backter,"


    Elizabeth exined with along face.


    "What the hell are you talking about? Friends? What friends? Come up with a better lie, Elizabeth! Tell


    me—are you with another man?"


    Jorge''s voice was so loud and his words so aggressive that everyone at the table could hear him


    through the phone.


    "You''re crazy!"


    Elizabeth didn''t want to waste her breath on him, so she hung up the phone angrily and downed yet


    another ss of wine.By then, she had finished almost a whole bottle of red wine by herself.


    Worried that she''d get drunk, J quickly stopped her.


    "Let''s eat something first before you have another drink, okay?"


    But Elizabeth only turned a deaf ear to her and continued to drink.


    In the end, J had no choice but to turn to Draco for help.Draco usually didn''t like to meddle in other


    people''s private affairs, but he couldn''t resist J''s pleading look.So he stopped Elizabeth.


    "That''s enough.Getting drunk will solve nothing."


    Draco had never scolded anyone like this before.иσν???вσσк.￠σмApart from being serious at work, he


    was gentle in private and had a good temper.Elizabeth obediently stopped, but it was probably too


    late.Her cheeks were flushed and she seemed to have trouble keeping her head up.She slumped over


    the table, tears in her eyes.


    After the phone call, Elizabeth didn''t have an appetite.She sat quietly as Draco and J ate their


    food.


    J walked her to the gate of the restaurant after dinner.She was worried about Elizabeth, so she


    wanted to drive her home.But their ces were on opposite ends of the city.


    It was toote for her to take Elizabeth home and then go home alone.It seemed that Draco could tell


    what was on her mind because he then offered to take Elizabeth home himself.


    "You should go home now.Drive safely."


    J didn''t insist on taking Elizabeth home herself.


    "Thank you, Mr.Wesley.You, too."


    Draco nodded and approached to take Elizabeth over from her.


    Elizabeth was so drunk that she couldn''t even stand by herself.


    Coincidentally, just as Draco came close, she fell into his arms.


    J didn''t think there was anything wrong.


    After all, Elizabeth was drunk and Draco had offered to take her home.


    Of course he had to help her into his car first.However, someone lurking nearby thought differently.


    Before Elizabeth could gather her bearings, an angry man stepped in front of Draco, blocking their


    way.The man pointed a finger at them aggressively.

    "So, you''re her new boy toy? Bitch, how dare you cheat on me!"


    It was Jorge, Elizabeth''s boyfriend.Worried that things were getting out of hand, J tried to stop him


    and hurriedly exined, "Sir, calm down.We''re both Elizabeth''s colleagues.We just had dinner


    together."


    "Go to hell, bitch!" Jorge refused to listen.


    He unscrupulously shoved J away from him.


    J didn''t expect him to be so violent.She almost fell down, but fortunately, somebody caught her in


    time.


    She looked back in surprise and saw that Brandon, wearing a ck overcoat, was holding her from


    behind.He helped her up and looked into her eyes with concern.


    "Are you okay?"
