Chapter 35
Melody sat in the corner of the sofa, crying with a beer bottle in her arms. Her makeup was already smudged, and her mascara was running from her eyes. She looked like a mess.
Briana walked over, sat down next to her, and took the beer bottle from her arms. “What happened? Where is your boyfriend?”
Melody cried harder at the word “boyfriend”. She sobbed and said brokenly, “That scumbag… I dumped him…”
After hearing her out, Briana knew what had happened.
Earlier today, Melody’s boyfriend asked her out to dinner. She had thought he was going to celebrate her birthday, but he just wanted to break up with her.
He explained that his first love back in college came back home and he planned to be with that girl again.
Briana patted Melody’s back and tried to comfort her. “Don’t be sad. It’s a good thing that you’ve seen through that guy. You deserve better.”
Melody’s eyes were puffy from crying, and she reached out to grab the beer bottle from Briana.
“Give me a drink! I want it…”
Briana put the beer away. “No. You’re drunk already. Let me take you home.”
“No, I’m not! I want more!”
Briana didn’t want to waste her breath with a drunkard. She picked Melody up and carried her.
Briana dropped Melody off at home. When Briana was about to leave, she couldn’t find her phone.
Briana tried to recall where she might have dropped her phone. “Maybe in the private room,” she thought.
So she drove back to the club. It was past eleven at night. She went straight into that private room.
Briana opened the door and saw a man sitting in the middle with a fat face checking her mobile phone.
Briana narrowed her eyes and walked up to him.
“Excuse me, Sir. The phone in your hand is mine. Can I have it back?”
