Chapter 1455 Getting Drunk


    Taylor furrowed her eyebrows and had a strong urge to hang up the phone. However, she was more


    sophisticated than that. "What do you want to exin?" she asked instead.


    Truth be told, deep in her heart, she was really curious about the rtionship between Louis and J.


    "First of all, Louis and I are just friends. I hope you understand. Second, he is currently getting drunk at


    a bar."


    "I see," Taylor murmured. "Thank you for your exnation." Taylor was also curious about why Louis


    was drinking at a bar but she decided not to ask. After all, there was no reason for her to ask such a


    question.


    "Don''t you want to know why he''s getting himself drunk at some bar right now?"


    "Why?" As soon as Taylor asked, the woman on the other side of the phone chuckled in amusement.


    "Because of you, of course! Are you seriously that clueless?"


    Taylor didn''t say anything but J didn''t mind her silence.


    "The bar is full of different...kinds of people. I''ve been there several times." J paused on purpose;


    she wanted to hear Taylor''s reaction before she continued. Taylor reacted the way J expected her


    to —by letting out a heavy sigh. "Aren''t you worried that such a good-looking man like him would be


    taken away by someone once he gets really drunk?"


    "What are you trying to say?" Taylor asked impatiently. However, she had already instinctively grabbed


    her car key.


    "I''ll send you the address."


    Before Taylor could protest, J had already hung up the phone.


    As she stared at the phone in her right hand and the car key on her left, she felt lost in thought.


    "Well...". . . . . After a while, she let out a defeated sigh. Then, she changed her shoes and went out,


    her keys in her hand.


    Despite the current situation, Louis was still her friend. She should take care of him so that he didn''t get


    into trouble. After all, he had taken care of her many times before.


    She blinked, not wanting to recall too many memories of the past. Once she thought of what had


    happened in the past, she couldn''t help but feel softhearted.


    Half an hourter, Taylor finally found Louis, who was squatting awkwardly at the side of the road. It


    was obvious that he was drunk out of his mind.


    Seeing him like this, Taylor couldn''t help but feel angry. She could see some women near him who


    seemed to be waiting for the right time to approach him. This made her even angrier. She couldn''t wait


    to reproach him for his reckless behavior.


    "Hey, can you still walk?" Taylor walked over and kicked Louis in the shin.


    Cold, angry eyes immediately looked up at her. However, once he recognized her, the coldness


    immediately disappeared and his eyes turned soft. In fact, he suddenly looked excited upon seeing


    Taylor.

    But before Taylor could say something, he lowered his head again. He looked like a sad, deted


    balloon.


    Unsure of how drunk he actually was, Taylor squatted down beside him and put up three fingers. "How


    many fingers am I holding up?"


    "Three," he answered quickly.


    In his drunken state, Louis looked like apletely different man. His usually sharp features looked


    softer somehow, which had an almost boyish charm to them.


    She suddenly had an urge to poke his cute face.


    The thought almost frightened her and she quickly tried to shut it out from her brain. She shook her


    head and then told herself, ''What on earth is wrong with me? He''s cute? That''s absurd!'' Taylor closed


    her eyes to try and forget ever having had that thought.


    When she opened her eyes again, she was met with Louis'' charming gaze.


    "Well...". . . . . To hide her embarrassment, Taylor cleared her throat awkwardly and stood up.


    She observed their surroundings. The ce was quite crowded with many people passing by, so they


    didn''t look too out of ce sitting there. But they couldn''t sit on the side of the road forever.


    "Can you walk by yourself? If you can, I will drive you home." As she said this, she pulled Louis up.


    Although he was wearing a tailored suit, he had a rather slim figure. However, when Taylor grabbed his


    arm, she realized that Louis was definitely a lot stronger than he looked. He easily overpowered her.


    What was even worse was that Louis refused to cooperate with her. He was like a child throwing a


    tantrum on the pavement. Taylor couldn''t help but feel annoyed. She angrily tapped the back of his


    head and yelled, "What are you doing?"


    Louis rubbed the back of his head and winced as he started to feel the pain of her p. Then, he


    nced up and saw Taylor''s enraged face. "I have nowhere to go."


    His voice sounded pathetic.


    Upon hearing this, Taylor felt bad. "How about I drive you to a hotel, is that all right?" she asked.


    Her voice was softer and gentler this time.


    Louis nodded. When he stood up, he realized that he was fine walking by himself and didn''t need to


    lean on Taylor. The woman even thought that maybe Louis wasn''t as drunk as she had thought.


    Fortunately, they found a hotel located near the bar. After they entered, they smoothly checked in and


    went to the suite on the top floor. Taylor assisted Louis in getting to the bed. Louis, on the other hand,


    just stared at her and gently held her hand.


    "Stay here and get some rest. I will see you tomorrow, okay?" On the way, Taylor had finally figured out


    how to handle Louis'' drunken state.


    He obeyed her words and cooperated with her without much resistance once she coaxed him properly.


    "No, please stay with me tonight. I don''t want you to leave." Louis suddenly sat up and opened his


    arms, ready to wee the woman that he had been pining for all this time in his arms. He wrapped


    his arms tightly around her, not wanting to let go.


    "Hey, Louis...". . . . . Startled by his bold actions, Taylor wasn''t able to move away from him


    immediately. So, she was stuck in his arms and struggled to break free. This made her feel a little


    exasperated.


    ''Why did he suddenly do this?'' she asked herself.


    "Do you have any idea how much I care about you? Do you have any idea how much I actually love


    you? Again, J and I are just friends. There''s nothing else going on between me and her," . . . . .


    Louis murmured in her ear. Tears started to form in his eyes.


    "I agreed to have dinner with her only because my father found out that I gave you my kidney.


    Needless to say, he was not happy about it. I was afraid that he woulde for you or personally


    attack you. So, I had to meet with J to satisfy him. Taylor, please don''t be angry at me anymore. I''m


    really sorry about all this. Okay? I''m not going to force you to do anything anymore. But please, don''t


    push me away as you did before. . . . . . I really feel bad about it…"


    Louis choked out. He couldn''t stop the tears from streaming down his face and quickly soaking his


    clothes.


    "You don''t have to feel bad about that. Louis, why are you so silly?"


    Taylor''s eyes were starting to get red. Any woman who heard those words would surely tear up even a


    little and Taylor was no exception. However, she couldn''t let her emotions get to her. They both came


    from different worlds. Louis was from a rich family. How could she be so selfish and let him ruin his


    good life just for her? She couldn''t let him suffer.


    So, she rejected him again and again because she loved him.


    His grip loosened enough for Taylor to finally break free from his grasp. She then tucked him in, quietly


    sorted the mess inside the room, closed the door, and then left.


    When morning came, the bright little rays of sunlight started to seep from the curtain, shining on the


    face of the man lying peacefully on the bed.


    The sun beamed directly into his eyes. Louis opened his sleepy eyes slightly as the light illuminated his


    face.


    He sat up slowly and felt a light pounding in his head, probably the result ofst night''s drinking. For a


    quick moment, he felt as if all kinds of sounds in the room disappeared and he could near nothing, only


    silence. Suddenly, the memories ofst night came back to him. Louis blinked rapidly, suddenlying


    back to his senses.


    He could feel a terrible headache about toe. He really regretted drinking so muchst night.


    He observed his room and realized that he was in an unfamiliar environment. A bag beside the bed


    caught his attention. There was also a note underneath it.


    "Try not to drink so much next time. Have some porridge to warm your stomach," he read the note out


    loud. The note was signed by Taylor.


    Next to him was a bowl of porridge. Louis gently reached out to touch it. It was still warm. Last night''s


    memories invaded his mind. He suddenly remembered everything, including what Taylor had told him


    while he was drunk.


    He picked up the bowl of porridge and gently rubbed the stic container with his fingers. It seemed


    that Taylor had only left a little while ago.


    As he stared at the bowl of warm porridge in his hands, Louis didn''t really know how to describe what


    he was feeling. The fact that had she made the effort to bring him the porridge made him feel warm


    inside, but a part of him was still disappointed.


    After all, he had still woken up without her by his side. . . . . .
