I'm Sorry, But I Love You novel Chapter 24

Catherine didn’t know how she got out of Anderson’s office. She was totally helpless in the presence of Anderson.

She had no choice but to persevere as long as there was a shred of hope.

“Catherine? Are you Catherine?”

Catherine felt down and out as she walked to the street along Hualing Plaza and heard a joyful and yet doubtful voice. She turned around and saw a lady with heavy makeup and asked, “Aurora?”

“Yes!” Aurora was very excited to see Catherine. In her social circle, she loved someone such as Catherine. Aurora was very depressed for a long time when she heard from Joshua that Catherine had been arrested and jailed. She said, “My brother told me that you came to City W. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”

Aurora was Joshua’s little sister and younger than Catherine by several years. Catherine knew her but had not interacted with her previously.

“Now that you’re back, I’ll take you to an interesting place.” Aurora held onto Catherine’s arm warmly and dragged her along.

Aurora didn’t allow Catherine to reject her. She continued to say, “Ever since you disappeared from our social circle for six years, I’ve not seen a person as beautiful as you are. It’s so boring without you…”

How she could exaggerate. Catherine thought quietly. The Adams family brother and sister put a lot of importance on appearances.

Aurora dragged her further and further away as Catherine asked doubtfully, “Where are you taking me?”

Aurora teased, “You’ll find out when we get there.”

They soon arrived at a huge pub. Before the day was dark, there were already many men and women dancing on the dance floor. A lot of people greeted Aurora when she arrived like she was a regular guest.

“Catherine, the cocktails made by this bartender are very yummy. Have a try afterward.”

“You’re the friend of Aurora?” The bartender seemed to be very familiar with Aurora. He quickly mixed a cocktail and smiled as he served it to Catherine, “This is our house specialty, Sky.”

Catherine took it and looked at the light blue cocktail in a daze.

She seldom drank alcohol other than the time she was married to Anderson. Anderson would frequently go out with Isabella and she would be very hurt as she loved Anderson. When he went out with Isabella, she would then go out to drink and drown her sorrows.

“Aren’t you going to taste it?” Aurora took another glass of cocktail from the bartender and took a sip, “It’s very yum...”

Before she could finish saying, she saw Catherine drinking the entire glass of ‘Sky’ and placed it on the bar counter. She then said to the bartender, “One more please.”

“No, no, no, Catherine, the cocktail may look pretty and harmless but it has a strong kick.” Aurora held her back.

Catherine’s eyes were sparkling and grinned, “I know, I want to get drunk.”

Though Catherine was smiling, Aurora could sense that she was upset, “Catherine, are you upset because Anderson is so close to Sienna?”

“Don’t be upset, it’s not worth it!” Aurora became furious when she mentioned Sienna and Anderson, “I wonder what those old farts are up to, trying to bring Sienna and Anderson together. Rest assured that Anderson will not like Sienna.”

Although she wasn’t upset because of this, the image of Sienna’s blouse being messed up and sitting on Anderson’s lap flashed in her mind. She didn’t know why her heart ached because of this.

“Miss, here’s your drink.” The bartender smiled as he served the cocktail to Catherine.

Catherine took over the cocktail and downed the entire glass again. She then wiped her mouth and said, “Not because of this.”

“Since he can hop from woman to woman, so can I!” Catherine said as she stroked the man’s face with her finger. She tiptoed and was about to kiss the man when suddenly her arm was forcefully yanked.

She couldn’t help but fall into a man’s embrace. Catherine was thinking how nice the person smelled. She was enjoying the fragrance before she realized that he looked so much like Anderson.

Catherine forcibly pushed him away and yelled, “I don’t want you. You look too much like him. Have your colleague come over.”

Aurora kept an eye on Catherine for her safety. She rushed over to Catherine when she saw Anderson and heard what Catherine said.

Crap. Why did she call a gigolo for Catherine? Aurora shuddered when she thought about Anderson and was blaming Joshua for not going. Why did he let this devil come?

Aurora explained awkwardly to Joshua, “Anderson, Catherine didn’t mean it that way.”

“I’m referring to you. Get your colleague to come instead. You look disgusting.” Catherine yelled in frustration.

Aurora: That’s it…

Anderson’s expression was dark and cold. He immediately bent over and carried the drunk and wild woman onto his shoulders and carried her off. Her head was hanging down and she was dizzy. Her stomach started to churn and then…

Mmph…

Anderson shuddered, “Catherine, if you dare to vomit, I’ll throw you…” into the trash bin.

Before he could finish his sentence, his shirt at the waist area was drenched in vomit.
