Chapter 2105
After collecting the money, Vermont tossed the dice to the person beside him and poured two glasses of liquor. He handed one to Marshall and sat down next to him. "Did you come from the office?"
"Yeah; Marshall responded and took a sip of the drink. "Why are you and Ms. Thompson fighting?"
Vermont's expression instantly turned sour upon hearing Marshall's question. "We're here to have fun. Why do you have to ask about such unhappy things?”
Marshall said gently, "Ms. Thompson is a very genuine and nice person. She's younger than you, and you should be more accommodating to her."
“Am I not being accommodating enough to her?" Vermont put down his glass and spoke with a stern face. "I've had so many girlfriends; have I ever been as open and sincere with any of them as I am with her?
"I Know she's a genuine person, but she spends all her effort on her friend. When does she ever care about me? She isn't even willing to bring me to meet her mother. Am I such a bad boyfriend that she can't bring me to her mother?"
Marshall chuckled upon hearing that. "Girls are shy. Maybe she's just not ready yet. After all, your relationship with her is stable now. There's no need to rush things."
Vermont waved his hand. "I asked you here to drink with me, not to lecture me. I'm going to leave if you don't stop talking about this."
Marshall stopped speaking and clinked glass with Vermont. After a few drinks, he started chatting with Carter. “Lena is going to transfer to another department, right? Has she done so?"
Carter shook his head. "She loves what she's doing too much and doesn't want to transfer. I'm just going to let her be. As long as she's happy with what she's doing, I'm happy too."
Marshall nodded and casually asked, "How many years has Lena been in this position?" Carter thought for a moment before he said, "About six or seven years, I think."
