The door was unlocked and it opened the moment Jay pulled on the handle.
He saw Bob lying on top of Zoe on the floor in the room.
Their posture was…very suggestive.
Jay turned around in his shock.
He had thought…
In fact, he had no idea what he thought had happened. He simply thought that something bad might have occurred, which was why he rushed in without further thought.
He really did not think that he might stumble upon such a scene.
"Jay!" Zoe suddenly called out.
She called out to him when he was about to stride off in a hurry.
Jay stopped in his tracks. "I wasn't trying to interrupt both of you…"
"Please come and help me out. Bob needs the washroom." Zoe panted.
She was helping Bob to the washroom and just when she helped him up, he stumbled in his stupor and fell on her.
She was completely unable to withstand his weight and both of them collapsed on the floor.
She could almost see her life flash past her when he fell on her.
She could not even get up with Bob lying on top of her.
Jay walked toward them and tried his best to haul Bob off the ground.
Bob stood up shakily, mumbling under his breath, "Zoe, did I fall on you? Zoe…"
"No, no you didn't…" Zoe panted in reply.
But in fact, her bottom was probably covered in bruises from the fall.
How much did Bob drink tonight?!
"To the washroom?" Jay asked Zoe.
Bob was clearly disoriented.
"Yes."
Jay helped Bob to the washroom.
