Chapter 521: She Is Caught Drinking


    Abby hits the right note. Lily is a little amused and says, "Am I that obvious?"


    Abby takes the wine list from the waiter and nods, "It''s not that you''re obvious. The only one who can


    make you feel bad is Rex."


    Lily is lost for words. She thinks that Abby is telling the truth.


    "What would you like? Beer, red wine, or cocktail?" Abby asks.


    "I would like whisky," says Lily. Abby is shocked.


    "What?" Abby doesn''t believe what she heard and asks, "Are you going to get drunk?"


    "I am in a bad mood, why don''t you drink with me?"


    Abby is not a coward either. She orders a bottle of whisky generously and says, "OK, it is not easy for


    me to get drunk once. I''m going to drink with you."


    The wine is quickly served. They get a te of fruit for free. Lily puts a slice of lemon in the ss and


    pours some whisky. And then she clinks sses with Abby and says, "Thank you for drinking with me."


    Abby smiles, "You''re wee."


    Lily drinks the spicy liquid. When she is in a good mood, she doesn''t think alcohol is a good thing.


    When she is in a bad mood, it really helps alleviate her anxiety.


    "What''s the matter with you two this time?" Abby asks.


    Lily thinks of the conversation between themst night and feels upset. She says, "He got a case. It''s


    dangerous. I don''t want him to go. But Rex thinks that he has the obligation to stand up as awyer."


    "Is it dangerous?"


    "Yes," Lily says solemnly, "It''s very dangerous."


    "Talk with him. He will understand you. You have been going through so many difficulties, and such a


    trivial matter won''t keep you apart."


    "I had talked with him, but..." Lily hesitates. She looks down at the wine in the ss, as if her heart is


    soaked in it. She says, "I don''t know if I did the right thing."


    Abby knows that Lily is in a dilemma again. As a woman, she can understand Lily. Sheforts Lily,


    "Actually, both of you are right. However, your positions are different, and your points of view are


    different. I know that you are worried about his safety. Rex definitely understands that, too. He will not


    me you."


    Lily doesn''t feel much better. She says, "I sent Adair to school today. He said that he wanted to be an


    outstandingwyer like his parents. Abby, I don''t know what to do..."


    As a wife and a mother, she doesn''t want Rex to take any risks. However, when she thinks about the


    significance of this case, she feels that she was very selfish and insignificant.


    "Lily, everyone is selfish. I know that you have a sense of justice, but I don''t want this sense of justice


    to be a shackle that makes you choose what you don''t like."


    Lily also wants to make a choice regardless. But if she stops Rex to do something, she is afraid that


    she would never let it go. Even if she will let it go, what about Rex?


    She knows Rex well. He looks aloof and indifferent, but in fact, he is enthusiastic and active in dealing


    with the cases. Although his enthusiasm is well concealed by him, Lily can still feel it because she is


    the same kind of people.


    Essentially, they share a lot inmon.


    Lily and Abby drink ss after ss of whiskey. They finish half of a bottle of whiskey and Lily is drunk.


    Abby''s alcohol tolerance is better than Lily''s, so the former is a little sober and rational.


    They talk and drink. Neither of them pays attention to the cellphones on the table. When Lily goes to


    the washroom, her phone lit up again. Abby nces at it. It is Rex.


    She doesn''t think too much and answers the phone, "Rex, your wife is with me. Don''t worry..."


    Rex has called eight times before, but no one answers the phone, so he is on the verge of losing his


    temper. When he hears Abby''s drunk voice, he can''t hold back his anger any longer. He nces at the


    clock on the wall. It is ten-fifteen in the evening. Great.


    Rex puts on a coat and goes out. He says in an extremely cold voice, "Where are you?"


    ...


    Twenty minutester, an eye-catching Maybach, with a beautiful drifting, steadily stops at the entrance


    of the bar. The tires rub against the ground, creating a gust of wind.


    Many passers-by unconsciously stop when they see this scene. The moment the car stops, they see a


    man with a slender figure open the door and appear.


    It is a pity that they can''t to see this man''s face clearly because of the darkness of night. However, the


    man''s figure is enough to shock the others.


    "What a handsome man!"


    "Oh my God, is he the overbearing CEO in reality?"


    "I really want to see his face..."


    The whispers behind him do not attract the slightest attention of the man. He walks into the bar with a


    gloomy expression. The manager immediatelyes forward and is about to ask if Rex had any


    reservations, but is frightened by the coldness in Rex''s eyes.

    "Sir, we only open for membership..."


    Rex doesn''t stop and he is aggressive. His anger can be felt from a distance of ten meters away.


    The manager follows behind fearfully and is afraid to stop him. He can only watch Rex barge into the


    private room.


    Rex sees the thin girl with her head on the table with a single nce. His worry and anxiety turn into


    anger at the moment he sees her. He walks up to Lily with a few steps. It is Abby who sees him first.


    "Oh, you''re here. Are you here to... pick up... your wife?" Abby speaks with a lisp. Obviously she is


    drunk.


    Rex nces at her and takes out his phone to send a message to Orson. And then he ignores Abby


    and pay attention to Lily, who worries him and angers him.


    "Get up."


    A cold male voicees from above her head. If Lily had been awake now, she would know that he


    was trying his best to hold back his anger and she couldn''t anger him again.


    Unfortunately, she is drunk now, so she can only fall asleep regardless.


    Seeing that Lily on the table doesn''t react, Rex is angrier. He directly reaches out and pulls her up from


    the table. Although his movements arerge, he is careful and doesn''t hurt her.


    Lily only feels dizzy for a moment, and then she sees a familiar handsome face.


    "Rex?" she asks and the overwhelming smell of alcohol can be smelled on her breath.


    Rex frowns and says sternly, "Can you stand up?"


    Lily doesn''t care if she can, and immediately nods, "I can!"


    "Thene home with me."


    "OK..." she says and gives a hup. She puts her hands on the table and tries to control her bnce.


    Unfortunately, she is drunk and can''t keep bnce. She tries to stand up and immediately falls back to


    her seat powerlessly. She mutters to herself in a puzzled tone, "Why can''t I stand up..."


    "..." Rex stands at the side and watches her toss around coldly. He says, "You have the ability to lie and


    drink, but you don''t have the ability to stand up?"


    Lily immediately pouts. She is unhappy and can''t vent her grievances. Hearing his sarcastic words, she


    leaps up with all her strength.


    With a muffled thud, her knee crashes into the corner of the table. Rex is startled and the coldness in


    his eyes is gone. In the next second, he moves quickly and grabs onto her shoulder before he could


    have time to react.
