Ex-husband, Please Respect Yourself novel Chapter 48

When Tyrone just opened the car door, Leo who was behind him came over and closed it, “I am also drunk and can’t drive, why not let Marian drive you home?

Marian grabbed the chance to talk, “Tyrone, I drove here, let me drive you home so that Leo can go back home earlier for rest.”

Tyrone frowned and his eyes on Leo suddenly darkened, “Are you going to stay overnight?”

Leo smiled carelessly, “I can stay overnight anywhere cause I am single and not too poor to rent a room. But for you, go back home quickly otherwise, your mother will worry.”

Marian agreed, “Yes, Tyrone, aunt is waiting for you. Can we go back earlier?”

Tyrone gazed at Leo with his black eyes and got on Marian’s car silently.

Leo was frightened by the gaze, bu he restrained himself, still smiled to watch that Marian closed the door for Tyrone.

Marian breathed a sigh of relief and got her tone cheered up, waved towards him, “Leo, We go first, and you also get rest earlier.”

“Marian, this is the only chance.” Leo significantly talked with both hands in the pockets.

With stiff expression, Marian didn’t reply and got on the driver’s seat and started the car.

The night darkened, and lights of the city still illuminated.

Had been driving for a while, Marian looked at the man on the back seat through real view mirror with a sightly confused look.

He leaned back on the seat with slightly bent legs and closed eyes. He barely moved, which seemed like a perfect sculpture. It was hard to tell if he fell asleep or had a catnap.

Certainly Marian wanted him asleep but she felt jealous as soon as she realized the reason he drunk too much was due to Cathy.

She couldn’t understand how such a woman who had no good looking, competence, and background deserved his care. Probably he had been with her for three years and he got used to it so that he couldn’t fit in such a sudden divorce.

It was fine. She would let him know that any woman was better than Cathy after the night.

Thinking about next things made her feel happy again.

After a while, she estimated that it was time for delayed effect of alcohol. So she tempted to ask, “Tyrone, Tyrone?”

The man had no reaction in more than ten seconds.

When she was about to be joyful, there was cold and husky voice from the back, “What’s up?”

Marian was shocked and explained in a hurry, “Well... I was wondering if you would like to call aunt first.”

Leo said that Tyrone had drunk a lot, but why wasn’t he drunk?

“No need, I won’t go home tonight. Send me to Jinglin Bay.”

Marian startled a moment and nodded, “OK, I will call aunt later for your safety check.”

She was glad for his decision. If so, her good plan wouldn’t be destroyed.

Jinglin Bay was the apartment of Tyrone and Cathy before. He regularly came back there but she had never gone there after their divorce.

The man became silent after saying that.

The car was so quiet that Marian slowed down on purpose.

They reached the apartment and Marian stopped the car and opened the back door, “Tyrone, we have arrived.”
