Alpha's Regret After Her Rebirth (Hannah and Noah) novel Chapter 213

Chapter 0213
Hannah
The music pulsed through the club, the bass thrumming in my chest as I moved on the dance floor. Viona grinded up against me, grinning and giggling along with me.
The girls’ night out had been Viona’s idea, a chance for the four of us to let loose and forget about our problems for a little while-and to celebrate Amber’s engagement. And even though I couldn’t drink, I was glad to get out of the house and have fun with my friends.
“Look at this guy!” Viona shouted over the din, shoving her phone in my face. “Isn’t he hot?!”
I strained my eyes to see; the screen was open to a Tinder profile of an extremely hot guy… who was also holding a fish in his first picture. I scrunched up my nose at the thought; was this what I had to look forward to when I eventually returned to the dating scene?
“Ew, Vi,” I moaned. “A fish guy? Really?”
Viona pursed her lips and studied the picture again. “You’re right,” she said, swiping to the next one. “What about him?” She held up another picture, this time a fairly innocuous mirror selfie of a guy in a tight white t -shirt that exposed his chiseled pecs. I nodded, shooting Viona a thumbs-up, and returned to my dancing.
My mind wandered, then, back to my promise to Drake. One date once the divorce was finalized…
I didn’t really see Drake that way. Not now, at least. But a promise was a promise, and he had kept up his end of the bargain. Although, it had been over a week and he still had yet to find any evidence about Noah. cheating; he had even been parking outside of Zoe’s house at night and had never seen Noah enter or leave.
But Noah was cheating. I was sure of it… Drake and I just needed to catch him at the right moment, and then Noah would be sorry.
“I need to use the bathroom,” I said, suddenly feeling like I needed a moment to breathe. Viona nodded, and I slipped away from the dance floor in search of the restroom.
But it was as I was weaving through the crowd that I caught sight of a familiar figure near the bar. A head of brown hair, a pair of wire-rimmed glasses, and a pencil mustache.
It was Jake, Amber’s fiance. His look was so unique, I could have recognized him anywhere.
But he wasn’t alone. He was leaning in close to another man, their faces just inches apart. My heart dropped as I watched them, their body language unmistakably intimate. Jake’s hand moved to touch the other man’s lower back, a smile spreading across both of their lips as they leaned in….
“Amber needs to see this,” I whispered. I fumbled for my phone, determined to get evidence. But by the time I had it out, Jake and the mystery man had already separated. Jake was now standing by himself, Jeaning over the bar and casually sipping his drink.
Cursing under my breath, I made my way to the restroom.
By the time I returned, Amber, Viona, and Emma had reconvened at our table and were laughing about something amongst themselves. I tried to school my features into a neutral expression, not wanting to ruin the night with my unconfirmed suspicions.
