Chapter 58
Chapter 58 Getting Drunk With Lorelei
The talk with Alois weighed so heavily on Micha that she felt suffocated by it.
Even if he didn’te to see her, she had nned to visit the Summerfield residence after work.
After giving Wayne a call to inform him that she wouldn’t be home for dinner, Micha drove to the
Summerfield residence when it was time to get off work.
The Summerfield residence was located in a wealthy neighborhood in Xenhall. The residents who lived
there were made up of rich and prominent families. Evidently, the Summerfields were also a
distinguished family in Quakersville.
As the only daughter, Lorelei was the apple of the entire family’s eye.
Unfortunately, falling in love with a man like Alois was considered a misfortune of hers.
It was a twenty minutes drive from the foundation to Xenhall. The moment her car turned into the
neighborhood, she saw a ck Maybach drive out from inside.
More importantly, the person in the driver’s seat was none other than Lorelei, who was in mboyant
makeup.
Even though Micha honked in reflex, the Maybach had already driven past her. Hence, she quickly
spun the car around and followed it from behind.
In her mind, Lorelei was a youthful and vibrant-looking girl. Just a simple ponytail alone was enough to
let her natural beauty shine through.
However, the person Micha saw just now wore such heavy makeup that she looked like an entirely
different person, which caused Micha to feel sorry for her.
As she followed Lorelei into the city, Micha finally found thetter’s Maybach parked outside
somece called Broken Hearts Bar.
At that hour, there weren’t many patrons in the bar. The dim lighting and ear-shattering music caused
Micha’s heart to thump alongside the rhythm.
While searching for Lorelei, she saw men and women dancing and kissing passionately all around her, to
the extent there was no ce for her to avert her gaze.
Since she had never patronized a ce like that before, she naturally felt uneasy inside.
Meanwhile, Lorelei was sitting at the bar. With her porcin-white legs crossed, she looked exceptionally
eye-catching.
Wearing a short ck sequined dress and a headful of long wavy hair, the dignified aura inherent in her
shone through the chaotic surroundings of the bar.
“That girl looks hot!”
“This is the third day that she is getting herself drunk. Furthermore, she’s a feisty one. Plenty of men
have tried and failed to get her to leave with them.”
“I like feisty ones. Hehe!”
As Micha could hear the entire conversation clearly, she was disgusted by the man’s row of yellow
teeth when he let out a lecherousugh.
Just when he was still nning on how to bed Lorelei, Micha had alreadye up to the bar and
snatched the whiskey away from Lorelei’s hands. “Stop drinking!”
Although Lorelei had just arrived, there were plenty of empty sses in front of her. She was already a
little drunk from the reddish tint on her cheeks.
“Mich!” Lorelei giggled at the sight of Micha as she settled thetter down beside her. Subsequently,
she waved at the bartender, “One more!”
“Aren’t you supposed to be sick?” Micha pretended to be oblivious to the truth.
Lorelei’s smile was just as vibrant as ever. After receiving the drink from the bartender, she pushed it
over to Micha. “Mich, since you’re already here,e and drink with me!”
“Answer my question first! Have you seen yourself in the mirror? Why do you insist on tormenting
yourself?”
As Lorelei’s expression froze, the smile on her face faded away. She then finished her drink in one gulp
underneath Micha’s intense gaze.
A short whileter, she remarked with a mncholic look in her eye, “Mich, do you know that Alois has
rejected me? Not only that, he even introduced his new girlfriend to me. Both of them were sitting in front
of me, all lovey-dovey. It made me feel… as if I’m nothing but a fool!”
Just as Lorelei spoke, she curled her lips into a faint smile. Nevertheless, there was a tinge of brimming
sorrow visible in her eyes.
If it wasn’t for her slightly moist and reddened eyes, one couldn’t tell that her smile was actually forced.
“Lorelei.” Micha’s heart went out to her.
In truth, Micha disapproved of the harsh method Alois had used. As Lorelei was a girl, there was no
need for him to resort to such tactics. If he didn’t like her, all he had to do was tell her. Why the need for
such drama? Love is supposed to be something beautiful, but it turned out to be a razor-sharp knife that
was plunged into Lorelei’s heart.
At that moment, Micha was worried that Lorelei would be lost in her own despair.
“Mich, do you think that I’m really that undesirable? Why doesn’t Alois like me? What am Icking? As
long as he’s able to tell me, I’m more than willing to change. All my plotting was just so that I could be
near him. But now, I realize that it’s meaningless to do so. Other than getting drunk, what else can I do?
Mich, my heart hurts like hell!”
The moment she finished, Lorelei threw herself into Micha’s arms as teardrops kept streaming down
her cheeks.
“Lorelei, you’re a wonderful person. It is he who doesn’t deserve you!”
Micha patted Lorelei on the back to console her. The next second, Lorelei backed up from her
embrace and wiped the tears off her face. She held Micha’s hand and cozied up to her. “Let’s not talk
about such depressing matters. Come, let’s drink!”
“Whatever you want to do today, I’ll do it with you. However, you must promise me that from tomorrow
onward, you will get a grip and stop tormenting yourself, all right?”
“All right, all right. I’ll do as you say from tomorrow. But tonight, you will drink with me to our hearts’
content!”
Just as she spoke, Lorelei raised her whiskey-filled ss and clinked it with the one in front of Micha.
Subsequently, she downed it in one gulp again.
All this while, Micha had never stepped into a bar before, for she was someone disciplined. Since it
was a rare asion for her to let her hair down, she downed her drink in one shot too.
As whiskey was a strong drink, Micha’s cheeks reddened the moment it entered her stomach.
Meanwhile, in a discreet corner, Lucille, dressed in a mature and sexy outfit, was staring at the bar in
surprise.
Zack had gone overseas for a business trip after having a meeting in the morning. Feeling bored, she
had invited her usual gang out for drinks.
It was just that she had never expected to run into Micha there.
Isn’t she supposed to be above all this? How did she end up in such a sleazy ce?
Watching the twodies happily downing one drink after the other, Lucille’s gaze grew incredibly icy.
The act she had previously devoted much effort to didn’t just fail to ruin Micha’s reputation, it also
ended up arousing Zack’s suspicion. In fact, it almost backfired on her.
If it wasn’t for her ability to think of her feet, she would likely be the one who was drowning her sorrows in
alcohol that day.
At that stage, Jacob had dered that he would no longer help her and even warned her to stop causing
trouble for Micha.
Although she came close to finishing Micha off, thetter someone managed to escape unscathed.
How could she? It took me so much effort to finally take Micha’s ce, but why does everyone insist
on protecting her? Is it all because of the dead old man from the Simmons family?
She was filled with indignance over the situation.
The higher Micha soared, the more Lucille wanted to pull the former down and inflict suffering upon
her.
Suddenly, a wicked glint shed in Lucille’s eyes. If myst attempt failed to tarnish her reputation, let me
try and ruin it again.
