A Night To Remember novel (Diane and Norman) novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47 Christopher, I Think You’re in Danger

“Bang!”

An hour later, Christopher kicked a door open—it was a VIP room that belonged to him at Denzel’s private clubhouse. The waiter brought in some wine a moment later, and Denzel came in as well.

“Christopher, whatever’s the matter with you again? Goodness; my poor door…” Denzel bent over to check on the door while he sighed with a sense of heartache. “Gosh, what did the door do to you? Look at it—it’s broken! You’d better compensate me for this.”

“Hand me the wine,” Christopher ordered the waiter as he ignored the whining Denzel. However, even before the waiter could hand him the wine bottle and glass, he impatiently took a bottle of wine for himself. As soon as he opened the bottle, he guzzled it down straight away.

Denzel had just straightened when he looked at Christopher’s actions in shock. “What are you doing? What’s the matter? What did Queenie do to you again? Isn’t she recovered, though? She should be in the hospital now, right? Speaking of, why aren’t you with her?”

Denzel was still blabbering on when a shining glass flew straight toward his face.

“Shut the hell up!”

“Holy sh*t!”

Denzel yelled and he quickly dodged it. Before he could even get his footing, he heard the sound of the glass shattering on the floor.

“Thank goodness my face’s safe!” Denzel mumbled as he patted his chest. He then went to Christopher’s side and ordered the waiter to clean up the mess. Sitting down next to him, Denzel stared at Christopher silently while the latter guzzled the whole bottle of wine.

It was only when the latter slammed the wine bottle on the table that Denzel started to venture, “Young Master Wayne, can you tell me what’s wrong with you, my lord?”

Christopher did not bother to reply. Instead, he threw the empty bottle to one side and opened another. This time, however, he poured the wine into the wine glass instead of guzzling it.

“Is everything all right with Queenie?” Denzel asked again. Still, Christopher ignored him once again and it was as if he was invisible. Without giving him even so much as a side glance, Christopher continued to drink his wine.

Feeling defeated by his silent treatment, Denzel frowned while he stared at Christopher's gloomy side profile. “Or is it because of… that wife of yours?” he finally asked.

Just as his words left his mouth, the person beside him finally reacted and turned to look at him fiercely. In all honesty, Christopher’s sinister gaze made Denzel break out in a layer of cold sweat.

“Uh… so I was right? Goodness, Christopher; I can’t believe you would actually go crazy because of a woman who, I might add, is not even Queenie!” Denzel stood up as he shouted in disbelief and he stared at Christopher with wide eyes.

However, his heart promptly broke at the thought of his door once more. “My door really just died with injustice. Christopher, you—”

“Denzel, do you think I should agree to the divorce?”

“Huh?”

Denzel was stunned to hear that. He turned back from looking at his innocent door and returned to his seat beside Christopher.

At that moment, Christopher started to toy with the stem of his crystal clear wine glass, making the dark red liquid swirl gently.

“Are you… going to divorce Diane?”

The atmosphere seemed very heavy in the midst of Christopher’s silence—it was so heavy that Denzel had to pour himself a glass of wine to soothe the depressing feeling.
